More than likely, it will be ignored like every other truth about his cult put before his eyes. Like this one from Uriah Smith’s, “Looking Unto Jesus.” Too bad it wasn’t “Reading the Bible About Jesus.”
“[T]he death of Christ and the atonement are not the same thing. And this relieves the matter of all difficulty. Christ did not make the atonement when he shed his blood upon the cross. Let this fact be fixed forever in the mind. This is not denying the atonement, which is the world’s hope, but only adjusting it to its proper place, where it will not conflict with other great truths of the Bible.”
And:
“The parallel between the earthly and the heavenly sanctuary has been sufficiently drawn to make at once the application. The antitypical atonement, which is the real removal of sin, was not made when the offering for this dispensation was provided, not by the service of the priest in the first apartment of the sanctuary; but is accomplished only by the service of the priest in the most holy place, which is the closing work of our Lord’s ministration, the cleansing of the sanctuary, a branch of the work which did not commence, as we have seen, till 1844.”
That’s right, brother: 1844.
Truly the spirit of antichrist ... Paul told us that Jesus our High Priest entered the Holy of Holies IN HEAVEN with His blood, to sprinkle His atone blood on the Mercy seat in our behalf. Paul was given that revelation for our benefit as expository to Jews who were very familiar with the working of the High Priest. Now our High Priest need not enter every year again and again to atone because the perfect innocent blood was sprinkled upon the Mercy seat in Heaven by our PRIEST FOREVER.
