Where Is the Holies of Holies Today?
1) Direct answer
Today the Holy of Holies is not a room in a building. It is in heaven where Christ appears for us, and on earth God has placed His Holy of Holies inside the born‑again believer—the inner man—making our bodies His temple by the Holy Spirit.
2) Scriptural explanation
- The veil was torn when Jesus died, showing open access to God’s presence (Matthew 27:51).
- We now enter “the Holiest” by the blood of Jesus through the veil, “that is to say, His flesh” (Hebrews 10:19–20).
- Christ entered the greater, heavenly sanctuary—“heaven itself”—for us (Hebrews 9:11–12, 24).
- God now dwells in His people: “You are the temple of God… the Spirit of God dwells in you” (1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19; 2 Corinthians 6:16).
- The promise is “He dwells with you, and shall be in you” (John 14:17); “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27).
- The church is “a holy temple in the Lord… a habitation of God through the Spirit” (Ephesians 2:21–22).
3) Simple clarifying logic
- In the Old Testament, God’s presence was behind a veil in a man‑made room. When the veil was rent, God showed the way into His presence was opened through Christ.
- Now the veil is His flesh. By the new birth, the Shekinah glory moves from a building to the believer. So the innermost place where God dwells on earth is the heart of the Spirit‑filled believer, and collectively in the true church.
4) Reinforcing statement
You see, it’s not a location made with hands anymore. The Throne has moved to the inside. Come boldly by the blood, walk in holiness, and let the Holy Ghost keep that inner sanctuary pure.

The great coming revival
54-0718A §33
And today, we're trying to run to this church and say, "Has this got the message?" Over here: "Has this got the message? Is this the right?" There's one thing God has give us an everlasting Star, that's the baptism of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit is the Guider of the church of the living God today to lead them into truth and all light. Amen. (I'm not shouting at you, but that's pretty strong now there, and I was backing up a little from it.) Look! The Holy Spirit, when He has come, He will lead and guide you int...
Convinced and then concerned
62-0521 §37
It was Jacob. He wasn't very concerned about how he had done his brother, until one night he wrestled all night. He was a little shyster, as I've often called him. Excuse the expression. But he run always around his mammy. Esau worked. And then he stole the birthright from Esau, and took off. And after awhile he wasn't concerned. He was prospering, doing all right. But one night he came in contact with God. And he didn't let Him loose. He didn't say, "Oh, I feel it. Oh, I better get away from here." The difference...
Acts of the Holy Spirit
54-1219E §27
...ens and earth will pass away, but My Word shall never pass away." It can't pass away. That Word is just as immortal as God Himself. It can't pass away. I believe every word of it. All the things that Jesus was, He is now, always will be. That's right. He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. The same Holy Ghost that fell on the day of Pentecost is the same Holy Ghost of today. I'll admit it's been tramped on, made fun of, misinterpreted, misrepresented, and everything else like that; that's only the devil, coun...
God commissioning Moses
53-0508 §21
"You mean to tell you ... them tell you the baptism of the Holy Ghost ain't just as real today as it was the day that it fell on the day of Pentecost? When it's to your children, to you that's far off. He said, "You shall receive power after this the Holy Ghost is come upon you. Then you'll be witnesses of Me in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, Jonesboro, and the uttermost parts of the earth." That's what's the need today, is the Holy Spirit spunk, grit. Get out there and do something about it. Say, "Oh, well, now you ju...
Believest thou this?
53-0906A §94
Listen, friends. This may be the last day this side of eternity that you'll ever have an opportunity to come to God. Won't you come now? Won't you come now and receive Jesus Christ into your heart and the baptism of the Holy Spirit? If you're without the Holy Ghost today, this might be the very time where God will repeat Pentecost again. In another few minutes from now, this building may be illuminated with the power of God, people going out of here with the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
