SACRIFICE, IMPORTANT FOR THE TEMPLE


Self too was required as an offering. willing wisemen should give themselves for the service of the temple, now the saints as individuals and the entire church as a whole. Paul refers this as a drink offering on occasion(Phil 2:17, 2 Tim 4:16). This is also the workmanship of weaving together the garments, according to specification, ensuring the vessels were to the order. These represent not just the apostles, teachers, prophets, evangelists and pastors but also anyone lending a helping hand to the build-up of the saints. They are the new temple. These had to be wise.

God would honor then temple by His presence and so is the function of sacrifice. After receipt of the gifts of menGod gives even more of Himself. This is the principle of increase in the manifold glory of God as presented by His gifts.The subsequent use of the temple would be daily sacrifice. Hence the phrase of the taking of the cross, just like Christ, daily. This is important in maintaining a strong relationship with God and for maintaining His power


After all was given willingly and joyfully, men of wisdom put them together according to pattern  and the temple was put up. After sanctification, it was ready for sacrifice.
