Why is the priesthood important to you?

We are called (those who have the Holy Spirit Living in them) to be Kings and Priests.  Peter tells us we are chosen to be a royal priesthood.  John tells us that we are a kingdom and priests to serve The God and Father forever. Then John tells us that we will serve and reign on the earth and be the priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years during the millennium.  Just stop and think what this is really saying in so many words.  We will be serving and teaching the individuals that are alive during the millennium about Jesus Way of Life and then with a strong arm enforcement that they will have to follow the Way of Life that Jesus taught, lived, and by His example.  For example, all people, there will be no exception to this, will worship during the Feast of Tabernacles, the Sabbath day and the Feast Days.  This is why learning more about the priests is very important for us to learn.

Blessings

Stephen

(1 Pet 2:9 NIV)  But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
(Rev 1:6 NIV)  and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father--to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.

(Rev 5:10 NIV)  You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."

(Rev 20:6 NIV)  Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.
