Why is it important to understand the significance of the law and the tabernacle?

Answered in 1 source

The law reveals our sinfulness and need for a savior, while the tabernacle illustrates God's provision for communion with Him through Christ.

Understanding the significance of the law and the tabernacle is crucial for grasping the entirety of God's redemptive plan. The law serves to highlight human depravity and our inability to attain righteousness on our own, as Romans 3:20 points out that by the law is the knowledge of sin. It illustrates our desperate need for a Savior, setting the stage for Christ's redemptive work. The tabernacle, as detailed in the sermon, represents the means by which God chose to dwell among His people and foreshadows the ultimate communion with God that believers experience through Jesus Christ. The intricate details of the tabernacle and its rituals emphasize God's holiness and the serious nature of sin, and underscore the reality that only through Christ can we approach Him with confidence and assurance of acceptance. This framework shapes our understanding of grace and the purpose of Christ’s sacrifice.
