Question

Drawing on ALL previous sanctuary series studies (sanc-01 through sanc-29) and the christ-sin-bearer-as-high-priest study, synthesize: What is the sanctuary? Why does it matter? How does it illuminate salvation, prophecy, Revelation, and God's character? What confidence can future studies place in the sanctuary framework?
