The Book of Hebrews is considered to be one of those important foundational Books of the Bible.  Contained in these 13 chapters you will learn that the Tabernacle that Moses built in the desert was a picture or a type of the work that Jesus Christ would do when He came to the earth the first time.

Every color and implemet of the Tabernacle meant something significant.  The layout of the Tabernacle itself shows us that the outer court was a picture of earth the inner court a picture of heaven.  The Holy of Holies was itself a representation of the very presence of God.

You could not enter into the Inner court (heaven), without first passing through the outer court (earth) where you first saw the Brazen alter where you must make a sacrifice for your sins, an innocent dying for the guilty, to go any further.

Upon the completion of the sacrfice, you could now go into the inner court where you would find fellowship with God and see the Golden candlestick, a picture of Jesus as the "Light of the World", the Table o Shewbread, a picture of Jesus as the "Bread of Life", and the Altar of Incense, a picture of our prayers rising up to God as a sweet aroma.

Passage into the inner court where we find fellowship with God, was only possible because we had come through the sacrifice of the Lamb (Jesus) that we had offered up to God at the entrance to the Tabernacle.  And speaking of the entrance, did you know that there was only "One Way" into the Tabernacle?

"One Door" or entrance into the Tabernacle".  Remember that Jesus said that He was the only way into heaven, in fact he said that He was "The Door".

There were not many entrances into the Tabernacle, into the presence of God, there was just One Way, One Entrance, by the precious Blood of the Lamb.
