Priestly Qualifications and Responsibilities… Part 2

New Testament Priesthood Romans 15:4 “For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.”

New Testament Priesthood  New High Priest. Hebrews 10:1-4; Psalms 110:1-4; Zechariah 6:  New Royal Priesthood. 1 Peter 2:5- 9; Revelation 5:9-10

Priesthood Of Christ Far Superior To That Of Aaron  Melchizedek greater than Abraham. Hebrews 7:1-11  Christ after the “power of endless life” not after “law of carnal commandment” Hebrews 7:16,23ff  Christ’s priesthood came by oath. Hebrews 7:21

Priesthood Of Christ Far Superior To That Of Aaron  Made the surety of a better covenant. Hebrews 7:22  Continual High Priest. Heb. 7:26-8:1  Continual mediation. Hebrews 7:23-24  Tabernacle pitched by the Lord himself. Hebrews 8:2  Established on better promises. Hebrews 8:6

The Royal Priesthood  New priesthood established. 1 Peter 2:5-9; Revelation 5:9-10  All Christians are NT priests. We must be willing to accept the rites of consecration, qualifications and accomplish the duties of priesthood.

Qualifications of Christ’s Order  Keep himself from all defilements. James 1:27; Matthew 15:10-20; 2 Corinthians 6:17-7:1; 1 Cor. 6:9-11  Must form virtuous habits. Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Timothy 4:12  Must serve in the strength of the whole man. cf. Rev. 3:16; Romans 12:1-2 No place for weakness or compromise.

Obligations of Christ’s Order  Offer Sacrifices. 1 Peter 2:5; Romans 12:1; cf. Revelation 2:10  Maintain the Sanctuary. cf. Malachi 2:1- 3; Ephesians 4:1-3  Teach the Law of Christ. 2 Timothy 4:2- 4 Edification – Romans 14:19; Ephesians 4:14; Hebrews 5:12 Evangelism – 1 Timothy 3:15; cf. Mark 16:15

Punishment For Priestly Failure  Individual Consequences. Condition of the priest who has not been faithful. 2 Peter 2:20-21; Hebrews 10:26- 29; Revelation 20:12-15  Collective Consequences. Candlestick removed. cf. Revelation 2-3 Elders may lead others astray. Acts 20:28-30

 1 Timothy 1:3ff - strife and questions follow such teaching.  Paul warned the Ephesian elders, “And from among your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.” (Acts 20:30)  Those who taught the Gentiles to be circumcised were “subverting your souls.” (cf. Acts 15:24) Eternal consequences for leading men in the wrong direction.

 Hymenaeus and Philetus erred, “saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith of some.” (2 Timothy 2:14-18)  Peter said of false teachers, “And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of.” (2 Peter 2:2)

Eternal consequences for leading men in the wrong direction.  Paul wrote, “This I say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.” (Colossians 2:4)

Conclusion:  We must ever strive to hold to the path mapped out by our great High Priest, and beware lest any man lead us into the forbidden ways of death and destruction.
