If, aside from the Sabbath, there is one day which Seventh-day Adventists have occasion to remember, and in some way distinguish, above all others, it is the day on which the great prophetic period of 2300 days ended, and the cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary commenced. That was the tenth day of the seventh month, Jewish reckoning, of the year 1844, which was the 22d of October, according to the present style of reckoning. The 22d of October is the anniversary of this important event. Just before his recent departure for Europe, Bro. Andrews suggested that it would be most appropriate for our people to distinguish that day, each year, by public meetings, or other appropriate exercises, which would bring fresh to our minds the momentous events which then occurred, and give us a more vivid sense of the solemn time in which we are now living. Believing that this suggestion will be received with peculiar favor by our people, we make it thus public through the REVIEW. There has been no day, probably, since the birth and crucifixion of Christ, which marked the fulfillment of so many prophecies as this. Here the angel's solemn oath of Rev. 10:6, that there should be time [prophetic] no longer, was fulfilled; for all definite prophetic periods then expired. Here began the finishing of the mystery of God. Rev. 10:7. Here the seventh angel began to sound. Rev. 10:7. Here the temple of God was opened in Heaven. Rev. 11:19. Here the grand judgment scene of Dan. 7:9, 10 was inaugurated. Here the king in the parable, Matt. 22:1-13, came in and began to examine the guests. Here began the work of Christ in confessing before the Father the names of those who had confessed him before men. Matt. 10:32. Here the open door which no man can shut was set before the Philadelphia church. Rev. 3:8. Here began the blotting out of sins preparatory to the time of refreshing which just precedes the coming of Christ. Acts 3:19, 20. Here began the blotting out from the book of life the names of those who did not endure the Christian warfare, but defiled their garments. Rev. 3:5. Here commenced the cleansing of the sanctuary. Dan. 8:14; Heb. 9:23. All this work, it is true, has so far been confined to the dead of past generations; but it is no less surely going forward. And soon it will come to the living, when all will be finished. How appropriate that on the day named the evidences of these great truths should be the themes of new study and review, and that our souls should become freshly inspired with these life-giving truths.
