Description

Scripture:

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah29:11 (KJV)

And let them make Me a sanctuary,[a] that I may dwell among them. Exodus25:8 (KJV)

Christ's ministry in the Heavenly Sanctuary

Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice gives us confidence to approach God,  knowing we are forgiven. Now Jesus is reviewing our lives before  returning, so there’s no question that His judgments are made in love.

There  is a sanctuary in heaven, the true tabernacle that the Lord set up and  not humans. In it Christ ministers on our behalf, making available to  believers the benefits of His atoning sacrifice offered once for all on  the cross. At His ascension, He was inaugurated as our great High Priest  and, began His intercessory ministry, which was typified by the work of  the high priest in the holy place of the earthly sanctuary.
