WE ARE A KINGDOM OF PRIESTS
In the New Testament, we come to
realize that God fulfilled His plan for a kingdom of priests. 1Peter 2:5-9.
Glory God has fulfilled in Zion the things which He dreamt of. We are holy
royal priesthood, both kingly and priestly.
In the Old Testament,
there were basically three offices: the prophet, the priest and the king. Under
the new covenant; in Zion, God has not only made us priests, also kings.
Revelation 1:6.
He has made us KINGS AND PRIESTS; He is not planning
to, He has already made us Glory. Zion is a Kingdom of priests.
The moment you were born again, you became a
priests and a priest is a messenger of God.
In the Old Testament, Aaron was
the high Priest and his sons were the priests. Over here in Zion, Jesus is the
High Priest and we are the priests.
It is us and Jesus who form the
priesthood; the priesthood that has been established after the order of
Melchizedec.
Hebrews 3: 1
Hebrews 5:
10
Hebrews 7:
11, 12
Jesus is our
High Priest, and we are the priests. And Just as the priests in the old
testament had specified responsibilities, we also in the new have duties to
perform to God.
