Let us look at the following words which were addressed to those who received the book of Hebrews:

" Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh" (Heb.10:19-20).

These words are speaking of the access into the heavenlies which members of the Body of Christ enjoy now. Cornelius Stam wrote:

"The Holiest place of the tabernacle, still closed to Jewish believers at that time, except representatively through the High Priest once each year, reminds us of our free entrance into 'the holiest of all' in heaven itself. By grace we enter the presence of God, '. . . by the blood of Jesus . . . a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh' (Heb. 10:19,20). Think of it! The old dead way replaced by 'a new and living way,' specially consecrated to our use through the blood of Christ! This is the great Pauline doctrine of our access to God (Rom. 5:2) (Stam, The Berean Searchlight, Volume L, Number 2).

Certainly the words in regard to entering the holiest place in the Temple are not instructions which will apply during the great tribulation. Even Pastor Paul Sadler understands that those instructions apply to members of the Body of Christ today. He wrote:

"But now, through the blood of Christ, God dwells in our midst, thus, we can 'come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need' (Heb. 4:16). It is a solemn thought indeed that every believer in Christ dwells in the very presence of God" [emphasis added] (Sadler, Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians [Stephens Point, WI: Worzalla Publishing Co., 1999], p.66).

There can be no doubt that Pastor Sadler is applying the doctrine contained in the book of Hebrews to those in the Body of Christ. He does the same thing again here:

"The work has been accomplished on our behalf; now it is given unto us to 'believe,' at which time we are 'accepted by God' in the Beloved One, having full access into the heavenlies (Eph. 1:6; Phil. 1:29; Heb.10:19,20)" [emphasis added] (Sadler, Exploring the Unsearchable Riches of Christ [Stephens Point, WI: Worzalla Publishing Co.1993; Third Printing], p.177).

Despite the fact that Pastor Sadler applies the doctrine contained in the book of Hebrews to members of the Body of Christ he denies at other places that the same doctrine applies to members of the Body of Christ.

In his second epistle the Apostle Peter wrote the following:

"And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction (2 Pet.3:15-16).

Pastor Sadler admits that these verses tell us that Paul was the author of the book of Hebrews:

"Peter reminds them that Paul had also written to them along these same lines. This is why he says, ". . . even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you." Did Paul write a letter to the Hebrews? According to this passage he did. Under the direction of the Holy Spirit, Peter specifically says that Paul's letter to the Hebrews is a part of the writing of Holy Scripture" (Sadler, "Who Wrote Hebrews?" The Berean Searchlight, Volume L, Number 2).

As shown earlier, Pastor Sadler applies the doctrine contained in the book of Hebrews to members of the Body of Christ. And now he says that the letter written to the Jewish believers was the book of Hebrews. Therefore, according to Pastor Sadler's own words, the same group who received Peter's epistles also received the book of Hebrews, a letter addressed to members of the Body of Christ. Therefore, those who received the epistles of Peter were members of the Body of Christ.

But yet he says that Peter was not writing to members of the Body of Christ:

"So then, although Peter was well aware of the present truth of Jew and Gentile in one Body, he was not writing to the Body of Christ" (Sadler, "The Life and Letters of the Apostle Peter (Part III), The Berean Searchlight, April, 2000, p.8).

He says that all of the Jewish epistles, which includes both Hebrews and Peter's epistles, are not for the Body of Christ:

"Brethren, just as we turn to Paul’s Gentile epistles today for our doctrine and walk, the future Tribulation saints will turn to the Hebrew Epistles for timely instructions during the coming day of the Lord" (Sadler, "The Life and Letters of the Apostle Peter; Part II," The Berean Searchlight, February, 2000, p.10).
