WHAT DOES THE ARK REPRESENT
• Ark = Christ • Gold = Deity • Manna = Bread of Life (Word of God)• Tablets = Law of God• Aarons Rod = the new life in Christ• Mercy Seat = Throne of God

How Does God say to move the Ark?
(Num 4:5-6) And when the camp setteth forward, Aaron shall come, and his sons, and they shall take down the covering vail, and cover the ark of testimony with it: And shall put thereon the covering of badgers' skins, and shall spread
over it a cloth wholly of blue, and shall put in the staves thereof.
(Num 4:15) And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of
covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the
camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to
bear it: but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die.
These things are the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of
the congregation.

How does his deviation affect others?
(2Sa 6:6-7) And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and
took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah;
and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the
ark of God.

you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not
another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you,
