The Book "Exploring the Heavenly Sanctuary" reveals whether there is a temple in heaven and what its purpose is. Christ is revealed as our High Priest who intercedes for us. This is the heart of the Seventh-day Adventist message. Issues addressed include: Can we be sure there is a real temple in heaven? What is the purpose of this temple? When does the judgment start? Do we need to keep the Ten Commandments? Should we observe a literal Sabbath? And much more.
The heavenly sanctuary reveals Jesus who ever intercedes for us (Hebrews 7:25).
Marc Rasell was born in Oxford and grew up in a countryside village in Oxfordshire. He became a member of the Anglican Church at the age of 12 where he heard the Word of God and was converted. He later went on to become a Seventh-day Adventist after accepting the Sabbath truth. He studied at Newbold College, Bracknell and received a BA in Theology and then an MA in Religion, accredited by Andrews University. He spent a year in South Korea teaching English as a foreign language and some Bible lessons. He worked for a couple of years at the Adventist Discovery Centre at the British Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists in Watford. He was called by the church to work as a ministerial intern and then as a licensed minister for the South England Conference of Seventh-day Adventists in East Anglia and Cornwall. He currently is a member of a church in Cornwall where he writes and promotes the beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
An excellent introduction to seven-day Adventism. This book is easy to follow, well referenced and very accessible. It's Scholarly but not dry, entertaining but not irreverent, and very informative without being a textbook. On the whole. a triumph for Rasell.
