S7 Episode 3: To Dwell in Our Midst - Week 2 (The Bronze Altar)

Why study this ancient tent? What does knowing the Tabernacle have to do with our faith on this side of the cross? Everything. From Creation, God's desire was to dwell in the midst of His people. In the middle of the wilderness, God gives Moses a way for God Himself to dwell in the midst of His people: the Tabernacle. This tent is not merely ritual or history or good information. It's essential to understanding our salvation. Our detailed and deliberate God gave us the Tabernacle because one day, He would give us Jesus.In this teaching, Erin Warren talks about the first furnishing in the Tabernacle: the Bronze Altar. These are hard passages to read, but enduring through the Word brings greater understanding of what we have been saved from. The wages of sin is death and the shedding of blood is what is required to cover sin. But our God made a way: to forgiveness, to thanksgiving, to peace, to relationship with Him dwelling in our midst. Our sin has a great cost, and Jesus, our Great High Priest, paid that debt with the spilling of His own blood on our behalf.KEY SCRIPTURESExodus 27:1-8; 38:1-7Leviticus 9Hebrews 7:11-28Hebrews 10:1-10For more information on this study: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/DwellFor recommended resources: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Resources⁠For more information on studying Scripture: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/HowTo⁠Erin's books and other studies: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Books⁠For speaking inquiries: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking
