THE SANCTUARY OF MOSES
AFTER THE FLOOD, GOD PUTS BACK ON EARTH,
ANOTHER MINIATURE COPY OF, ​
THE HEAVENLY CITY OF GOD, THE SANCTUARY, NEW JERUSALEM
SO THAT HE TALK TO US AND BE WITH US
EXODUS 25:1 - 9
25 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Tell the people of Israel to bring me their sacred offerings. Accept the contributions from all whose hearts are moved to offer them. 3 Here is a list of sacred offerings you may accept from them: gold, silver, and bronze; 4 blue, purple, and scarlet thread; fine linen and goat hair for cloth; 5tanned ram skins and fine goatskin leather; acacia wood; 6 olive oil for the lamps; spices for the anointing oil and the fragrant incense; 7 onyx stones, and other gemstones to be set in the ephod and the priest’s chest-piece. 8 “Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them. 9 You must build this Tabernacle and its furnishings exactly according to the pattern I will show you.
​
HEBREWS 8:5
5 They serve in a system of worship that is only a copy, a shadow of the real one in Heaven (New Jerusalem). For when Moses was getting ready to build the Tabernacle, God gave him this warning: “Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.”

Chosen men were especially endowed by God with skill and wisdom for the construction of the sacred building. God Himself gave to Moses the plan of that structure, with particular directions as to its size and form, the materials to be employed, and every article of furniture which it was to contain.
The holy places made with hands were to be “figures of the true,” “patterns of things in the heavens”(Hebrews 9:24, 23)a miniature representation of the heavenly temple where Christ, our great High Priest, after offering His life as a sacrifice, was to minister in the sinner's behalf.
God presented before Moses in the mount a view of the heavenly sanctuary, and commanded him to make all things according to the pattern shown him. All these directions were carefully recorded by Moses, who communicated them to the leaders of the people. (PP, PAGE 343)
IN HEAVEN GODS GOLDEN THRONE IS THE HEAVENLY VERSION OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT
14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace(the Mercy Seat which is the lid / cover of Ark of the Covenant), that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. HEBREWS 4:14 - 16
