Sir
WHERE GOD FIRST INTRODUCED THE WAY OF WORSHIP;
God showed Moses to build a sanctuary according to the heavenly sanctuary (Ex.25:8; Acts 7:44) – (Surah 46:12, “And before this, was the book of Moses as a guide and a mercy,…”3:3 “…as a guide to mankind, …”)
ALTAR OF BURNT OFFERING, AS YOU ENTER; The sacrifice system started with Adam and Eve after they sinned, and it carried on with their children (Surah 5:27). Here the Lamb (referring to the Masih Surah 3:45) had to be offered for their sins, only with their MORNING and EVENING prayers (Gen.4:1-4; 22:1-14) (Surah 3:41; 6:52; 7:205; 17:78; 18:28; 19:11; 30:17; 33:42; 40: 55) This sacrifice was a type of Christ, the One that will come to take the sins of Gods people on Himself, and become the Lamb of God, who will die in their place. Since the punichment for sin is death, and since the royal heavenly laws cannot be changed, Jesus decided to die on our behalf.
THE LAVER AS YOU GO TO THE HOLY PLACE;
When a Levite becomes a priest he had to be washed completely by the High priest (Ex.29: 4), symbolising the cleansing of sin, and the start of a new life. Thereafter he only had to wash his hands and feet every morning and evening before he comes near the presence of God (Ex.30:17-21)
ALTAR OF INCENSE IN THE HOLY PLACE;
Twice a day their main prayers is going up before God with incense and the blood of the Lamb (symbolising the blood of Jesus Christ that will be spilled for our sins Ps.141:2; Rev.8: 3). Today our prayers are still going up before God from the Altar of incense (Rev.8:3) and we can send our prayers up before Him as many times as we need to speak with our God and our Father.
GOLDEN CANDLESTICKS; John 1:9 says Jesus is the light of this world, and Matt.5: 14,15 says the followers of Jesus must take this light into the world. The oil that is giving the light its power is the Holy Spirit James 5:14; Luk.4:18
TABLE OF SHEW BREAD; Jesus is the Life Giver (Surah 3: 49 ; John.14: 6). We also have to become one with Him by symbolicly eating His flesh and drink His blood that was poured out for our sin and salvation. (John. 6:47-58)
THE ARK, GOD’S THRONE IN THE MOST HOLY PLACE (Ex.25:22; Ezek.43:7); Inside the ark we find the royal law of true freedom (James.1:25;2:8) which God wrote with His own finger on rock. David describe this commandments as TRUTH (Ps.119:142,151). Then we find the manna as the simbol of a LIFE giving God (John.6:35) and lastly we find the living staff of Aaron which simbolises the WAY to life. Jesus declared in John.14:6, “…I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE. No one comes to the Father except through Me. ”
May the peace of God be upon you.
