    22. The Sanctuary of Daniel 8:14

    How do Ford and the SDA Church differ in their interpretation of the “sanctuary” of Daniel 8:14?QSEW 19.3

    Ford warns his readers against the assumption “that the sanctuary of Daniel 8:14 means the sanctuary in heaven” because, he says, “the context is about the sanctuary on earth” (Ford, pages 289, 290). However, according to his “apotelesmatic principle,” Ford also holds that the earthly sanctuary is the symbol of the kingdom of God in all ages, in heaven as well as on earth.QSEW 19.4

    The Seventh-day Adventist Church, on the other hand, holds that the sanctuary of Daniel 8:14 is the sanctuary in heaven. When the veil of the temple was rent at Christ’s death, the earthly sanctuary ceased to be a place that was honored or recognized by God. Therefore, the sanctuary to be cleansed in 1844 could only be the one in heaven. (See Hebrews 8:1, 2; 9:11, 12, 23, 24.)QSEW 19.5
