Santuário no Tempo

The song 'Santuário No Tempo' by Adoradores Novo Tempo is a profound reflection on the concept of worship and the sacredness of time. The lyrics emphasize entering a divine temple, not made of stone, but a sanctuary in time, specifically the Sabbath. This idea is rooted in the biblical creation narrative, where after six days of creating the world, God rested on the seventh day, sanctifying it as a day of rest and worship. The song highlights that this day, the Sabbath, is a time when all can come together to worship and serve God as He desires.

The lyrics also stress the inclusivity of this divine worship. It mentions that everyone is welcome, and all are children of the same Father, loved by the same Son. This universal message of unity and love is central to the song's theme, promoting a sense of community and belonging among believers. The repetition of the lines 'Todos são bem-vindos' (Everyone is welcome) and 'Aqui todos somos filhos' (Here we are all children) reinforces this message, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for worship.

Furthermore, the song contrasts the idea of a physical temple with the concept of a temporal sanctuary. It points out that God did not establish a temple of stone or a specific church for worship but instead created the seventh day as a time for all to find Him. This metaphor of a 'sanctuary in time' underscores the importance of the Sabbath as a divine institution meant for rest, reflection, and connection with God. The song concludes with a vision of eternal worship, where believers will continue to adore God from one Sabbath to another, basking in the beauty of His presence.
