Annotation

The doctrine of the high priestly ministry of Jesus Christ in the material heavenly sanctuary was conditioned by the original antitrinitarianism of the founders of Adventism. In the visions of Elena White, this is emphasized by the different scale of the glory and power of the Father and the Son. Traces of these views have been preserved in the underestimation of the role of the Holy Spirit in the work of our salvation and the not fully resolved question of the sinful nature of Jesus Christ. The doctrine of the heavenly sanctuary has significantly distorted the traditional church teaching about our salvation history, adding to it, in particular, the idea of the Sabbath as the seal of God.
