No doubt we differ on many things and yet we are still brothers. Was the Old Covenant a type of the New in which Christ was revealed- yes. I take the scripture quite literally when it says that these things were but shadows of the heavenly.
Indeed the Ark was a key part of the Tabernacle of Moses which was by God's design an imitation of the heavenly:
Heb 8:2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
Heb 8:3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
Heb 8:4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
Heb 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
So apparently if I shared your view the tents, the alter, the brazen laver, the alter of incense, the table of shew bread and all the other tools of service were copies patterned after the heavenly but the earthly man made ark was spirited up? Hmm and what about the mercy seat? Hmm.
Well anyway we can freely disagree and I do enjoy our conversations. You are a good brother Remnant.
Pro 27:17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
God bless you and have a good evening my friend.
