This is part 5 in a series on sanctuary, in response to the ELCA’s Churchwide Assembly designation that the ELCA is a “sanctuary” denomination. You can read the other parts at the links below:

Part 1 — Sanctuary and worship

Part 2 — Sanctuary and history

Part 3 — Sanctuary and the Hebrew Scriptures

Part 4 — Sanctuary and the New Testament

Today we turn our attention to Sanctuary and Jesus. Let’s dive in. We are going to look at five passages of Scripture that pertain to Jesus and Sanctuary.
