Summary of Readings

§   The Tabernacle was a place where God met with His People – a figure of His Spirit for us to dwell in as we travel through the “wilderness” of life in this world

§   The Ark of the Covenant signified God’s Presence and Holiness 

§   The Temple is a place where God has said He will dwell with His people, leading to statements like Paul made, Know ye not that your body is the Temple of God – speaking of what was to come.

§   Jesus clearly likened His body to The Temple, which the disciples realised later, when he was crucified and rose from the grave.

§   Revelation gives us a glimpse of the glorifies physical body of Jesus Christ.
