Open Sanctuary, The : Access to God and the Heavenly Temple in the New Testament

---

Outline : This examination of the heavenly temple in the New Testament within its Jewish and Greco-Roman contexts demonstrates that the ministry of Jesus gives believers access to the very dwelling place of God himself.
How can impure, earthbound humans gain access to God, who is holy and in heaven? In ancient Israel and much of the ancient world. the answer was obvious: by means of a temple. The temple gives access to God because it images the cosmos. The Open Sanctuary explores how the concept of a heavenly temple emerged as an important theological concept for early Christians. They developed their understanding of Christ and his work in part through their understanding of heaven as a temple. Nicholas Moore explores conceptions of the heavenly temple in the ancient world, Second Temple Judaism, the book of Revelation, Hebrews, the Gospels, Acts. and other early Christian literature. He offers a corrective to the way many understand the Jerusalem temple in early Christian thought. Moore demonstrates that the heavenly temple is essential for understanding what Jesus's ministry accomplishes: the opening of heaven, the possibility of universal mission, and worshipful entry to the heart of God's presence.
