SANCTUARY STUDY
With Jesus in His Sanctuary
Come and Discover the Heavenly Sanctuary: From the Garden of Eden, through the Time of Moses, David, Solomon, and on to the Vision of John to Measure the Sanctuary
We invite you to join us on a profound journey through the Sanctuary, starting from the days of Moses all the way to the heavenly sanctuary seen in John the Revelator’s vision. The Sanctuary is not only a central theme in the Bible, but it is also rich with imagery that is both beautiful and heart-breaking. It tells the powerful story of the Lamb of God, who gave His life for us all.
This study will offer you the chance to slow down, reflect, and allow God to speak to your heart in a unique way. As we look closely at the Sanctuary’s deeper meaning, you will find that there is so much more to experience than we often realize. Through the symbols, rituals, and even the very structure of the Sanctuary, God reveals Himself, His love, and His redemptive plan.
No matter where you are in your faith journey, this is a wonderful opportunity to grow closer to Him and see how the Sanctuary speaks to each of us from our own perspectives and experiences.

The command was communicated to Moses while in the mount with God, "Let them make Me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them;" and full directions were given for the construction of the tabernacle.
No language can describe the glory of the scene presented within the sanctuary—the gold-plated walls reflecting the light from the golden candlestick, the brilliant hues of the richly embroidered curtains with their shining angels, the table, and the altar of incense, glittering with gold; beyond the second veil the sacred ark, with its mystic cherubim, and above it the holy Shekinah, the visible manifestation of Jehovah's presence; all but a dim reflection of the glories of the temple of God in heaven, the great center of the work for man's redemption.
Thus in the ministration of the tabernacle, and of the temple that afterward took its place, the people were taught each day the great truths relative to Christ's death and ministration, and once each year their minds were carried forward to the closing events of the great controversy between Christ and Satan, the final purification of the universe from sin and sinners.
