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.

Now, Aaron as soon as the first manna fell, God told Aaron and Moses, "Go out there and pick up several omers full of it and put it back in the Holy of holies, that when your children's children, all that come into the priesthood, will get a taste of the original manna." Oh, what a privilege when a man become a priest! Now, remember, outside of the Holy of holies, that was the only one that kept. It wouldn't keep twenty-four hours. It got worms in it. That's what's the matter with the Pentecostal church today. Amen...

...Peter said, "When we were in the holy mount..." Not that the mount was holy. It was the Holy God that met them on the mount. Not the holy mountain, but the Holy God. People today sometimes call the church, "Well, they believe in holiness." It isn't the holiness people. It's the Holy God that dwells among the holy people. It isn't holy people; it's a Holy God that they are representing on the earth.

Here a few weeks ago, I got a letter from both of them. And the man that was so paralyzed, was so crippled like this, was a plowing out in a field with his tractor. The other man [unclear words] with multiple sclerosis, came down the road and seen him. He jumped out of his car, and the man jumped off the tractor, and they run out there in the field, grabbing one another and lifting one another up and down like that. What is it? Nothing but the blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is omnipotent in His power in...

...ise up and make a decision," or raise up their hand to serve the Lord. If they'd put them down at the altar, and let them pray there till they come through with the baptism of the Holy Ghost, they'd stay put. But how they going to do it, when they just say, under a little spell of emotion, raise up their hands. I've seen people in the prayer line do the same thing. But let the devil give them a attack of a good hard suffering after that, they fall back and say, "Well, I failed to get it." That man who knows where h...
The Oncoming Storm

I'm told in the Bible that there'll be a time come, for those who are not in this wonderful Son light, that the fowls of the air will eat the flesh of them; that diseases is on its road that the doctors will never be able to stop. It's the plagues of God. The Egyptian doctors, which was far smarter than ours today, could not stop the plagues of God, neither could their soothsayers or their impersonators. It took Goshen, and the power of God to hold His people, under the blood of a lamb! The Holy Spirit is that door...
