has since been nothing of the kind on the earth. The following
questions are therefore now pertinent: Has there
been no sanctuary anywhere since that time? Has something
else taken the place of that sanctuary? If this latter be
the fact, what is it that has taken its place? when and why
did it take its place? and where is it located? p. 108,
Para. 3, [LOOKING].
The covenant to which the earthly sanctuary pertained, has
given place to the new covenant. Jer. 31:31; Heb. 8:10-12.
Under the new covenant we are now living; for Christ ratified
it by his death upon the cross. "Where a testament
[covenant] is, there must also of necessity be the death of
the testator," or covenant maker. Heb. 9:16. Christ said to
his disciples as he passed them the cup at the last supper,
"This is my blood of the new testament [covenant, diatheke],
which is shed for many for the remission of sins."
Matt. 26:28. The two covenants are plainly set forth in the
Bible, as so related to each other, that in outward features
they must be counterparts of each other. There must
be found, therefore, in the new covenant, features answering
to the leading characteristics of the old covenant. The
sanctuary of the old covenant must consequently finds its
counterpart in a sanctuary belonging to the new covenant.
And the Bible nowhere recognizes anything as the sanctuary
of God, except the sanctuary, or sanctuaries, connected
with these two covenants. The new covenant therefore has a
sanctuary, as well as the old. p. 108, Para. 4, [LOOKING].
This is proved directly by the words of Paul in the text
in question (Heb. 9:1): "Then verily the first covenant had
also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary."
Paul is showing the relation which the two covenants
sustain to each other; and the word, also, shows that those
things which he mentions pertained to both. p. 109, Para.
1, [LOOKING].
One had ordinances of divine service; the other also had
them. One has a sanctuary; the other also had a sanctuary.
That Heb. 9:1 refers to the old covenant there can be no
just ground to question, though it has strangely been
called in question, because the word "covenant," in our
English version, is a supplied word. But a brief examination
of Hebrews 8 from verse 6 to the end of the chapter,
is sufficient to demonstrate that verse 1 of chapter 9, refers
to the old covenant. Thus (chapter 8:6): "But now hath
he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he
