Hi all, I'm looking for some clarification about an idea. If I removed/ save creatures with a synod sanctum and then to save the sanctum from being destroyed send it to the bottom of my library. if/when I get it back can I still bring everything removed with the synod sanctum back to the game? Or because it was removed from the game does it come back as new.

Your second guess was correct; you will not be able to get the exile permanent(s) back if you bounce sanctum. Sanctum creates what is known as a linked ability, in which the permanents it exiles are recognized as being "exiled with" that permanent, and that permanent alone. Once a permanent leaves the battlefield, it becomes and entirely different game object, so the re-played sanctum is not the same one that was bounced.
Contrast with Karn, Scion of Urza, which uses counters and only cares about exiled permanents with said counters, allowing him to retrieve cards exiled by other copies of him.
Just in case I have found an answer.
400.7.: An object that moves from one zone to another becomes a new object with no memory of, or relation to, its previous existence. But thanks thought it was too good to be true.
Synod Sanctum basic question...
When this card says: remove target permament YOU CONTROL from the game. Do i control a permanent if its in my hand, in play or in my graveyard?
You only control objects on the stack or the battlefield. Also, when it says a permanent you control, it specifically means a permanent on the battlefield.
110.1. A permanent is a card or token on the battlefield. (...) A card or token becomes a permanent as it enters the battlefield and it stops being a permanent as it’s moved to another zone (...)
110.4a The term “permanent card” is used to refer to a card that could be put onto the battlefield. Specifically, it means an artifact, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card.

Hi, welcome to the site! Just a small thing to note for future questions: we'd ask you to create a new thread rather than reviving an old one that happens to be about the same card you wanna ask about. This helps keep threads shorter and to the point, and it keeps them in their proper timeframe. With your question answered above, I'm going to lock this so it doesn't become a place for future unrelated questions about Synod Sanctum. Thank you for your attention!!
