Scripture Reading:  Leviticus 10-18

Leviticus 1-7 we were introduced to the different types of offerings.

Chapters 8,9,10 are about the Priesthood. 

• A Priest is a person who represents man before God.
• A Prophet speaks for God to man.
• Jesus is both a Prophet and a Priest.

We are a royal priesthood.

• We are sanctified - “by the washing of the water by the Word” – Eph. 5:26
• Judicially washed by the Blood of Jesus – Legal Judgement – we are justified by the blood but sanctified by the WORD.

The Church today is a Priesthood – Hebrews 8:1; 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 5:10,1:6 (But not after the Aaronic Priesthood, because Jesus is our High Priest who is in the order of Melchizedek… so the church’s priesthood is by higher order)
