The Sanctuary in Types and Symbols (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479611300)

Doug Clemmerson, in his book The Sanctuary in Types and Symbols, crafts a study on a topic that he vigorously identifies as the heartbeat of Seventh-day Adventist theology and mission. The Lord wisely developed a system of symbolic lessons from which any sincere searcher can comprehend what He must do to rescue our fallen race from the shackles of sin.

The author surveys, in great detail, the key characteristics and components of the earthly tabernacle and their correlating services. He liberally buttresses his volume with Scripture in an attempt to validate how these components, like the furniture, materials, and their colors, point to the Messiah's labor to wash away our unrighteousness and restore us to His image. The facts he includes about the acacia tree, the wood used for objects like the ark of the covenant, are especially fascinating.

Clemmerson encourages his readers to devote more attention to this biblical tapestry of truth. Please make the most of the opportunity to more intensely investigate God's quest to reconcile His wayward children back to Himself.
