HEAVENLY TABERNACLE
(Hebrews 8:1-6 NLT)
Here is the main point:
# We have a High Priest who sat down in the place of honor beside the throne of the majestic God in heaven.
# There He ministers in the heavenly Tabernacle, the true place of worship that was built by the Lord and not by human hands.
# And since every high priest is required to offer gifts and sacrifices, our High Priest must make an offering, too.
# If He were here on earth, He would not even be a priest, since there already are priests who offer the gifts required by the law.
# They serve in a system of worship that is only a copy, a shadow of the real one in heaven.
# But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood,
# for He is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.
