Long due to the interventions of the Roman Catholic Church forgotten and rediscovered in the 19th century. The biblical statements about the prophesied year 1844 AD and the associated heavenly sanctuary are essential for human salvation. No wonder these biblical truths are the focus of the ongoing attacks.

Year 1844 & Sanctuary are fundamental biblical teachings
ZThe teachings of the Evangelical Free Church of the Seventh-day Adventists (SDA) include the special year 1844 AD and the associated heavenly sanctuary. While these subjects are something of an SDA specialty, these teachings are not exclusive ideas, but are special emphasis on the truths contained in the Bible. The heavenly sanctuary, which was modeled by the historical people of Israel and later also by the Judeans as a mobile tabernacle or temple according to a precise blueprint, is of exceptionally great importance for the salvation of the people. Tabernacle and temple are a type of the heavenly sanctuary.
Briefly outlined, the year 1844 AD is the date when the sanctuary according to Daniel 8:14 after 2300 evenings and mornings cleansed or justified again. Some Bible translations use the phrase “put into righteousness.” The year 1844 is not explicitly described in the Bible, but can be determined relatively easily on the basis of the prophecies and the verifiable events that have already occurred. This prophecy of Daniel has thus already been fulfilled. This concerns the beginning of judgment on part of humanity.
In the course of the massively promoted ecumenism, not only Jesus Christ, the Son of God, stands in the way, but also His complete work of salvation, which can finally be found in the heavenly sanctuary. No wonder Jesus Christ is not only ignored and marginalized, but also the context for the only way of salvation for every human being. Instead, a “watering-can” variant of salvation has recently been circulated. It simply has to be compatible with the religions that exist worldwide and there the Son of God no longer has a place in the sense of the desired unitary religion. A huge mistake.
If you study the Bible yourself, you will quickly find out that the Scripture interprets itself. Symbols that cannot be explained at first glance are found elsewhere and explain the meaning of the symbol in context. For example, in the book of Daniel 8 related to the heavenly sanctuary, rams and he-goats are included. These are clean animals, which were offered as sacrifices in the replica of the heavenly sanctuary, i.e. in the tabernacle or in the temple. In contrast, the animals described in Daniel 7 are the lion, bear, panther and “monster”. All unclean animals and their meaning is also explained in the same chapter. They are symbols for the ancient world empires of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and the pagan empire of Rome that have emerged and have long since disappeared. The symbols found in the Bible all have certain properties that were not chosen at random, but give clear indications of the properties or connections of the prophesied events.
Judgment begins (in heaven) with the justification of the sanctuary. The Bible reports in detail in Daniel 7 that a judgment will take place. After the horn that grew out of the 4th beast (pagan Rome) was in the world for 3.5 times (1260 years, Information about prophetic times) and raged at that time. Judgment will be held against this horn. The profane horn loses its power and will eventually be destroyed forever. The (political) power was given to the horn in 538 AD after the last resistance in Rome was crushed. This was followed by 1260 years of devastation by the new religious and political power of Rome.
The horn met its political end in Year 1798 AD, after Napoleon sent his general Berthier to St. Peter’s Basilica to drag the Pope out of his apartments. It follows automatically that the judgment announced in Daniel 7 must take place after 1798. In short, with the horn described in Daniel 7, it is the Roman Catholic Church or papacy. The first reformers and Protestant theologians saw in Rome unanimously the “son of perdition” described in the Bible, the “man of sin”.
By now it is already clear that this judgment will take place after 1798 AD and before Christ returns. This judgment ends with the appearance of Jesus Christ, because he will have his reward for everyone, depending on his works, according to an important statement in the Bible. At this point it is already decided who is saved and who is lost. This presupposes that all decisions of the court have been concluded. The exact timing of the beginning of judgment is found in Daniel 8.
Verse 14 in Daniel 8 is already very concrete. Read in context, the beginning of the 2300 evenings and mornings refers to the Persian king’s command to rebuild the Temple and Jerusalem respectively. This order or the beginning of the reconstruction is historically documented and took place in the year 457 BC. If you add 2300 years to this year, you end up with the year 1844 AD Mathematically, the year 1843 will result. However, a year must be added since there is no year “0”. 1 AD follows directly after 1 BC
Why does judgment begin with the justification or cleansing of the sanctuary? It is known from the earthly replica of the sanctuary that the cleaning was carried out once a year on the Day of Atonement by the respective high priest. The sins of the people accumulated over the past year have been removed from the sanctuary. The people were justified on the basis of their repentance and belief in the work of salvation through sacrifice (typical of Jesus Christ). With His death, resurrection, and ascension, Jesus Christ took the position of our High Priest. The “perfect priest” with no sins of his own and no need for vicarious sacrifice. Jesus Christ brought His own blood into the sanctuary. What was modeled in the earthly sanctuary actually takes place in the heavenly sanctuary. With the cleansing of the sanctuary as announced in Daniel 8:14, Jesus Christ is in the “most holy place” to remove people’s confessed and repented sins. Judgment has begun.
The Sanctuary Doctrine in the Sights of the Corruptors
The teachings about the sanctuary and its purification since 1844 must be destroyed by the advocates of ecumenism. In other words, the interest of the Horn, or Roman Catholic Church, as the continuation of pagan Rome in the guise of Christianity, lies in the hiding of the truth of salvation through Jesus Christ. Just as the Church of Rome has practiced over the many centuries through the ban on the Bible, the persecution and murder of those who believe in the Bible as heretics and the introduction of its own traditions while at the same time preventing God’s commandments and statutes. This church raised itself up as the successor of Peter and the earthly representative of Christ, quasi as God on earth. The attacks on the teachings of the Heavenly Sanctuary will surely intensify. Daniel already knew about the countless blasphemies of this Christian-painted institution:
