”For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:“
Hebrews 9:24 KJV
For the Messiah did not enter into the earthly tabernacle made by men, which was but an echo of the true sanctuary, but He entered into heaven itself to appear before the Face of God in our place. The Presence of God means that we come before His Face. In Christ we have so much more than a type, reflected in the tabernacle of holy places which was set up by human hands. He entered into the heavenly sphere itself, where He personally exhibits us face to face with God as in a mirror. We have been invited into the very Presence of God, face-to-face with Him. We come closer to God and approach Him with an open heart, fully convinced that nothing will keep us at a distance from Him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with Blood to remove impurity, and we have been freed from an accusing conscience. Now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out! Let’s take His invitation seriously with faith. Amen!
