Moses was divinely instructed to build the tabernacle in the Wilderness. It served as a copy and type of the heavenly
things that would become manifest upon the earth. God told Moses, "SEE THAT YOU MAKE EVERYTHING ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN
SHOWN YOU ON THE MOUNTAIN." (Ex. 25:40, 26:30, 27:8; He. 8:2, 5). In the tabernacle we see the life and walk of Jesus
Christ, our High Priest and Deliverer. We also find our own life and walk, as a believer. When one studies biblical types and
shadows it is important to stay within the "pattern."

This is tape four in the series The Tabernacle, Inside-Out, and we
learn even more about the purposed destiny of the Ark of Covenant.
The Ark is not just a wooden box overlaid with gold, but the Mercy
Seat over shadowed with the Cherubim of gold are married to it and
the two now form one piece of furniture. This joining represents
the body united with Jesus the Head to manifest the fulness of Christ.
The Ark of the Covenant depicts God’s loving kindness to humanity.
Today we are stepping out from behind the veil that has hidden us,
a covenant people, into full view revealing his love to a groaning
creation. There is a world full of people who are waiting for this
unveiling. They stand on the tip of their toes with their necks stretched
out in anticipation. They long to know that God loves them just like
they are. They are waiting to learn that they are accepted in the
beloved and that there is nothing left for them to do but run into
the loving arms of their Father.
It has been asked how this unveiling is going to be achieved. First it will
take an awakening to what Jesus has provided for all. Next a covenant people
must fully walk out what has been accomplished at Calvary. This awakening comes
when one learns that God desires “sons” formed in the image of the
first born. The head and the body joined in the manifestation of the finished
work so that the world will recognize him as God of all.
