8/15

K. ANTI-TYPE OR SUBSTANCE

Now consider the Tabernacle and furniture in the buildings on the Chart, as a pattern of things in the heavens, and the High Priest to represent the Lord Jesus, as in Hebrews 8:1; 9:1-5. BP3 131.7

When did Jesus ascend there? Ans. - A. D. 31. BP3 131.8

Where did he commence his daily Ministration as Mediator for all the world? Ans. - In the Holy Place. Proof - Paul, Hebrews 9:12; John, Revelation 1:12, 14; Jesus, Revelation 2:1. The proof is clear that he was in the Holy Place, where the Golden Candlesticks were, sixty-five years after his ascension, from A. D. 31 to 96, and that his daily ministration could not cease until the end of the appointed time, 2,300, “Evening, Morning,” or “daily Sacrifice.” BP3 131.9

The Ancient of Days, (God,) sets between the Cherubims, in the Most Holy Place. This is where he is sought unto when the National Atonement is made. Where then is His THRONE during the daily ministration? Ans. - In the type. See Exodus 29:42-44, and Exodus 30:6, 36. In the anti-type, Jesus says he sets on his Father’s Throne, Revelation 3:21. John in vision sees the throne in the Holy Place where the seven lamps of fire are. See Revelation 4:1, 2 and 5; 5:1, 7. God was thereon. BP3 132.1

How long will Jesus our High Priest Minister in the Holy Place? Answer - Until the appointed time ends. BP3 132.2
