. The Tabernacle gives us a revelation of divine grace.

. The Tabernacle gives us a revelation of divine order.

. Grace that God should condescend to dwell among man.

. Order that nothing should be done in His name by guess, will or plan of man,

. but according to His pattern, His will, His plan.

. Paul says, "Let everything be done decently and in order."


This Tabernacle which God so minutely instructed to be erected in the wilderness

is a picture and prophecy of the man in whom God would become incarnate.

The man who should be His eternal dwelling place.

This man is Christ: John 1:14; Heb.2:14-16; 1 Tim.3:16;

Heb.1:3; Titus 2:13; Col.1:16; 1 Tim.2:5; Heb.8:1.

As we study the Tabernacle

you will find in every detail of its inspired construction

of the finished work and resplendent glory of our soon coming Lord.
