The Mercy Seat: God's Meeting Place Through Christ

In this episode, we explore the profound imagery of the Mercy Seat from the Old Testament Tabernacle and how it reveals the person and work of Jesus Christ. Discover how the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy of Holies, and the veil all point to God's plan for redemption through Christ — our Prophet, Priest, and King. Learn why Jesus is the only true satisfaction for sin, the one Mediator between God and man, and how His sacrifice gives us free access to the very presence of God. This is the heart of the Gospel: full, sufficient, and eternally satisfying.
