A Greater Temple

Key Points





The earthly temple set up by man and designed by God was a shadow
of the Messiah to come.


God establishes a meeting place (tent) for communion and worship.


The Ark held the law, and the mercy seat was its lid.


The blood of an animal presented annually by the high priest on
the Day of Atonement sprinkled on the mercy seat provided a way
to God.


None of this could completely solve the sin problem. Nothing but
the blood of Jesus.


The mercy seat triumphs over the judgement of the curse of the
law.


Jesus has entered the real Holy of Holies and sits on the throne
as the Lamb that was slain.


Our sins are truly forgiven and remitted once and for all.


Everything we pass through today is preparation for tomorrow.





Discussion Questions





How does the understanding of Hebrews 9 deepen your
worship?


Discuss your personal takeaways from Sunday’s message.


Discuss the implements found in the tent: The Table of Presence,
The Lamp Stands, The Altar of Incense, etc.
