Title: THE TABERNACLE
1THE TABERNACLE
2What is so important about the Tabernacle?
3- The Tabernacle is a copy and shadow of the
heavenly things, even as Moses is warned (of God)
when he is about to make the tabernacle for,
See, saith he, that thou - make all things according to the
pattern - that was showed thee in the
- mount. Heb 85 ASV
4- For the law having a shadow of the good
(things) to come, not the very image of the
things, can never with the same sacrifices year
by year, which they offer continually, make
perfect them that draw nigh. Heb 101 ASV
But Christ having come a high priest of the good
things to come, through the greater and more
perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is
to say, not of this creation, Heb 911 ASV

18- Rom 43 For what saith the scripture? And
Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto
him for righteousness. ASV
James 223-24 Abraham believed God, and it was
accounted to him for righteousness." And he was
called the friend of God. NKJV
Rom 421-22 and being fully assured that what
he God had promised, he was able also to
perform. Wherefore also it was reckoned unto
him for righteousness. ASV
19- Rom 423-24 Now it was not written for his
sake alone, that it was reckoned unto him but
for our sake also, unto whom it shall be
reckoned, who believe on him that raised Jesus
our Lord from the dead ASV
20Rom 51 Being therefore justified by faith, we
have peace with God through our Lord Jesus
Christ ASV
This is Tentative Justification in the Court
21JUSTIFIED BY CHRISTS BLOOD
- Rom 59 Much more then, being now justified by
his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath (of
God) through him. ASV
This is Full Justification in the Holy

boldness to enter into the holy place by the
blood of Jesus, by the way which he dedicated for
us, a new and living way, through the veil, that

27GOLD SILVER
- Mal 33 And he shall sit as a refiner and
purifier of silver and he shall purify the sons
of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that
they may offer unto the LORD an offering in
righteousness. KJV
Reprint 51195 This prophecy refers to the
antitypical priesthood The work of this great
Refiner is to purify the members of the Church
class--not only the Little Flock, but the Great
Company as well Gold represents the Divine or
higher order of spirit nature, and silver, the
lower order. The gold represents the Little
Flock, and the Silver the Great Company."
28GOLD SILVER
- 2 Tim 220 But in a great house there are not
only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of
wood and of earth and some to honour, and some
to dishonour. KJV
HG7524 In the New Testament this class is
referred to in our text as "vessels of silver,"
or less honorable than the vessels of gold, and
they are particularly brought to our attention in
our Lord's last message to his Church, in which
he pictures them as a "great company" in contrast
with the "little flock."
29WOOD
- 2 Tim 220 But in a great house there are not
only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of
wood and of earth and some to honour, and some
to dishonour. KJV
HG7526 The vessels of earth and of wood are
specified as indicating those unto less honor,
and to our understanding represent in the future
those who will be servants of God on the earthly
or human plane.
30COPPER (BRONZE)
- Num 215,68 And the people spoke against God
and against Moses "Why have you brought us up
out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there
is no food and no water, and our soul loathes
this worthless bread." So the LORD sent fiery
serpents among the people, and they bit the
people and many of the people of Israel died.
Then the LORD said to Moses, Make a fiery
serpent, and set it on a pole and it shall be
that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it,
shall live." So Moses made a bronze serpent, and
put it on a pole and so it was, if a serpent had
bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze
serpent, he lived. - NKJV
31Copper Serpent Perfect Sinless Jesus
Copper Human Perfection
"As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness
even so must the Son of Man be lifted up That
whosoever believeth in him should not perish but
have everlasting life."--John 314,15.

41WHITE CURTAIN
- Tabernacle Shadows, page 18, par 2,
- the curtain of white linen, representing to
those within a wall of faith, but to those
without a wall of unbelief
Rev 198 And to her was granted that she
should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white
for the fine linen is the righteousness of
saints. KJV
42SILVER HOOKS

Silver Spirit Nature
Justification comes from a spiritual source from
God Himself.
43WHITE CURTAIN SILVER HOOKS
Rom 42 For if Abraham was justified by works,
he hath whereof to glory but not toward God.
ASV Rom 46 Even as David also pronounceth
blessing upon the man, unto whom God reckoneth
righteousness apart from works, ASV
The Righteousness/Justification comes from a
Spiritual Power, God Himself, not from our own
works alone

Rep 3053 The Brazen Altar represented
primarily the perfection of the man Christ Jesus,
upon which His offering was accepted of God, as
our sin atonement, sanctifying in turn any
offering of others that might be presented upon
it.
TS 22 The Brazen Altar was made of copper
to represent the perfect humanity of the man
Christ Jesus, who gave himself a ransom for
all.
T 62 sacrifices of the
saints, represented by the fat of the Lords
goat of the sin-offering on the Brazen Altar
47Heb 1310 10 We have an altar from which those
who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat.
NKJV
The Priests did not eat meat sacrificed on the
Day of Atonement.
This is the Altar the Church is Sacrificed on.
48Rev 69 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw
under the altar the souls of those who had been
slain for the word of God and for the testimony
which they held.. NKJV
Drippings of fat and ashes of Goats completed
sacrifice are found beneath the altar.

50R1543 The Laver which stood in the Court full
of water, at which the priests washed their hands
and feet is a symbol of the cleansing effect of
the truth upon the outward conduct of
believers in general. It symbolizes
the putting aside of filthy
practices and communication
Eph 525-26 Husbands, love your wives, just as
Christ also loved the church and gave Himself
for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her
with the washing of water by the word, NKJV
Aaron had to be washed in order fitly to
represent the purity of the antitype, Jesus, who
knew no sin, T29

55Bread Gods Word
1 Cor 58 Therefore let us keep the feast, not
with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice
and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of
sincerity and truth. NKJV
Matt 1612 Then they understood that He did
not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread,
but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and
Sadducees. NKJV
Luke 44 But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is
written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but
by every word of God.'" NKJV
56 Rev 120 the seven lampstands
which you saw are the seven churches. NKJV
Golden Candlestick
57Ex 2720 - "And you shall command the children of
Israel that they bring you pure oil of pressed
olives for the light, to cause the lamp to burn
continually. NKJV
1 John 227 But the anointing which you
have received from Him abides in you, and you do
not need that anyone teach you but as the same
anointing teaches you concerning all things, NKJV
2 Cor 121-22 Now he that establisheth us
with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God who
also sealed us, and gave (us) the earnest of the
Spirit in our hearts. ASV
58Incense Alter
Rev 83 Then another angel, having a golden
censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given
much incense, that he should offer it with the
prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar
which was before the throne. NKJV

71Tabernacle Shadows Preface The first edition
of this little book was published in 1881, and
under the Lords blessing seems to have been very
helpful to the class for which it was specially
intended the "royal priesthood." Many of this
class have confessed that as the finger of the
Lord it pointed out to them meanings in the Old
Testament types never before appreciated and that
it has thus guided them in the way of
self-sacrifice by leading them to see the true
significance of the Scriptural declarations"
72Tabernacle Shadows Preface Present your
bodies living sacrifices," "Fill up that which is
behind of the afflictions of Christ," "If we
suffer with him we shall also reign with him,"
"Let us go to him outside the camp, bearing the
reproach with him" besides many other Scripture
statements which associate the Lords people with
himself both "in the sufferings of this present
time and the glory to follow."
