The sanctuary teaches us that for six thousand years, Jesus has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows". Even yet He is "wounded for our transgressions" and "bruised for our iniquities." The sanctuary reflects the full dimension of Jesus' sin bearing love. And He will continue to suffer the pain and agony of the Cross, the rejection, until His sanctuary is cleansed.
Thus Daniel 8:14 is an announcement that the time has come to release Jesus from the pain and agony of Calvary! But the Church's sympathy and co-operation are necessary. Is the people of God interested?



"Those who think of the result of hastening or hindering the gospel think of it in relation to themselves and to the world. Few think of its relation to God. Few give thought to the suffering that sin has caused our Creator. All heaven suffered in Christ's agony; but that suffering did not begin or end with His manifestation in humanity. The cross is a revelation to our dull senses of the pain that, from its very inception, sin has brought to the heart of God. Every departure from the right, every deed of cruelty, every failure of humanity to reach His ideal, brings grief to Him, TODAY." Ellen White.
