The New Testament Priesthood
Part One
Responsibilities
of the Priesthood
This study gives the blueprint for
our daily responsibilities as we come to "perfection" (i.e. maturity). "Till we all come to...a perfect (mature, full grown) man unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ." (Eph.4:11-16, 1 Cor.13:9-13) The Bride.
Part Two
Blemishes
This study gives the blueprint for why our engagement (espousal) to Christ sometimes seems spiritually stale, or musty, old or lost it's freshness, no excitement.
Part Three
The Law of Marriage
for the high Priest.
Jesus, the High Priest, (Heb.7) will fulfill this law in His own wedding, because He did NOT destroy this law, He fulfilled (completed) it. (Matt.5:17-19)
Therefore this blueprint reveals how God, the Father will measure the Bride for His only begotten Son.

Without redemption in Christ's blood, there would be no marriage! When Adam and Eve fell into sin, they covered themselves with fig leaves. This was rejected by God and He made the coats of skins to cover their nakedness. (sin) This pattern of the shedding of innocent blood first, continued until Christ offered Himself as the reality (completion) of what all those animal sacrifices pointed to.
To teach that God will again receive
animal sacrifices after the Cross is an abomination to God.
Remember this in your end time doctrine.

Study with me as I build this site daily
The Purpose for this Website
The Purpose for this Website is to explain how God has foreshadowed within the "types" and "shadows" of the Old Testament scriptures, a "blueprint" for a great master plan to prepare a Bride for The Lord Jesus Christ. The early (1st.century) Church understood this to be the "prize of the high calling" (Phil.3:14) of God's Redemptive plan, and that the Church would be presented as Eve was to Adam. (Eph.5:21-33 Eve was to be a "help meet" to complete him. Gen.2:18) This is why the Church is to be a "glorious church not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; that it should be holy and without blemish," (Eph.5:27 Rom.8:29, 2 Cor.3:18, Eph.4:11-16, 1 John.3:2) a "help meet" for Christ, completing Him. Paul, the wise masterbuilder and apostle, (1Cor.3:10, Gal.1:11-12) interpreted Jesus to be the "last Adam" (1Cor.15:45, Rom.5:14) and the Church to be compared to "Eve." (2 Cor.11:1-3, Eph.5:21-33) The Lord Jesus Christ has already given Himself as Adam did in order for His Bride (the Church) to be taken from His side. This preparation has been ongoing for the last 2,000 years (2 days / 2 Peter.3:8-9) and is about to be completed.
These 12 phases build upon each other and reveal the pattern (Blueprint) that God is using.
Phase 1 - Why I use the King James Bible
It is the washing of water BY THE WORD that will prepare the "last" Eve (the Church) to be presented as a"glorious" bride "not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but it should be holy and without blemish." This is why the serpent (the Devil, Satan, Lucifer) is still saying, "...Yea, hath God said..." and provoking the Church into changing God's Word as he did with Eve in the garden. (Gen.2:16; 3:1-5, 2 Cor.11:1-3) His strategy is to corrupt God's Word and destroy our preparation as Christ's Bride. Beginning in 1881 AD. with the Revised Version, the Church has been "beguiled" (2 Cor.11:3) into changing God's Word, just as the serpent did to Eve. This has continued to "vex" the Church with every modern translation after the King James. (Compare all their doubtful footnotes)
This study identifies the "root" cause.
Phase 2 - God's Purpose for His Eternal Church
This is a study using the children of Israel leaving Egypt and possessing the Land, as an "ensample" (Grk. type) of the journey that God has, is presently, and is yet to take the Church, (the Bride of Christ) on. (Gen.12:1; 15:13-21, Exod.12:1-15 / 1 Cor.5:7-8) Deut.12:1-12, 1 Chron.17:1-15; 22:1-19, 2 Chron.5:1-14 / Eph.2:20-22,
1 Cor.10:1-11) The apostle Paul wrote, "Whatsoever things that were written aforetime (the Old Testament) were written for our (the Churches) learning. that we through patience and comfort of the (Old Testament) scriptures might have hope." (Rom.15:4, Gal.1:11-12, 2 Tim.3:16) This is the first of three patterns that overlay each other (Note: Chart above) confirming that God is working according to a deliberate plan and purpose. (The other two are, Phase 4, The Tabernacle of Moses, and Phase 8, 9,11 The Feasts of Israel).
Note: This was the content of Stephens sermon. (Acts.7:1-60)
Phase 3 - God's Redemptive Week
This Phase teaches the time frame that God is working within, to make Eve (the Bride Church). God always works in patterns of "weeks" or "sevens" (Gen.1-2, Exod.16:26, Lev.23; 25:1-7) Therefore it is not a strange thing that He would work six days and rest the seventh in His Redemptive plan for man (mankind, humanity) to be the Bride of Christ. These Redemptive days are interpreted by the apostle Peter to be 1000 year days. (2 Peter.3:1-9, Psalm.90:4)
History confirms this by the study of the "begats" of Genesis 5. They reveal that there are approximately 2,000 years (2 Redemptive days) from Adam to Abraham. Abraham to Christ can be chronicled to be another 2,000 years (2 Redemptive days), which gives 4,000 years from Adam to Christ. (4 days) Now it is understood why Israel was to keep the Passover Lamb (which foreshadows Christ - 1 Cor.5:7-8) for 4 days before killing it in the evening. (Exod.12:1-6) When Adam sinned, Christ our Passover was taken and kept 4,000 years (4 days) and crucified at the end (i.e. the evening) of the fourth day. Our calendar (which not accurate) places us 2,000 years AD. (another 2 days) completing almost 6,000 years since Adam, or 6 days before the Lord.
Now apply the pattern that God stops working after six days, and rests the seventh. (Gen.2:1-2)
Jesus will NOT return until the mystery of God is finished, (Rev.10:7, Acts.3:21) which coincides with the end of the sixth day. Then there is a 1000 year rest, the ultimate Sabbath. The seventh day! (Rev.20:5) Time is running out! The Bride is about to be completed!
Note: This study IS NOT saying that Jesus is returning at the year 2,000 AD. because obviously He did not. However, it does give a picture of the urgency of the hour. One thing is for sure, our generation, is the closest yet to the Marriage of Christ and His Church.
Phase 4 - The Tabernacle of Moses
The Tabernacle of Moses confirms that the Spirit of God is leading (John.16:12-13) the Church (Bride) according to the same pattern revealed in Israel's journey from Egypt to the promised land. (Note:The chart above) This is the second witness. (Deut.19:15, Matt.18:16, 2 Cor.13:1)
When Moses was about to make the Tabernacle, God reminded him many times to "make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee on the mount." (Heb.8:5, Exod.25:9,40) The reason for this is because it is a pattern of "heaven itself" (Heb.8:5; 9:24) This pattern is given by "inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man (Grk.- a human being - Strong's) of God may be perfect, through furnished" and prepared as the Bride of Christ. (2 Tim.3:16-17, Eph.4:11-16)
Note on the chart above how the Brazen Altar parallels Israels deliverance from Egypt, and the Feast of Passover. They all begin with atoning blood shed. Also note how the Laver parallels the Red Sea which both speak of separation from the old life. (Water Baptism - Rom.6:1-11)
Phase 5 - Daniel's Visions and Prophecies
Daniel's visions and prophecies teaches us the balance between the Church being the Bride of Christ and why God's Covenantal hand is still upon the Jews today. (Abraham's children of the flesh Rom.9:1-8)
Phase 6 - Interpreting the Prophets
God's Redemptive purpose has unfolded as each book of the Bible is read from Genesis through to the book of Acts and the Epistles. After this there appears to be a gap, until the last day and the Book of Revelation. There is no gap! The apostle Peter declared that "all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after... have likewise foretold of these days," (the "apparent gap.") (Acts.2:16-36; 3:18-25) This makes the language of the Prophets, crucial in understanding our present day, because they have already prophesied about the decline and restoration of the Church to be the Bride.
However when the Prophets speak, they speak of the Tabernacle of Moses, Levitical priesthood, Feast days, Five offerings, Divers washings and ordinances, and the journey of Israel from Egypt to the Promised Land. How does this relate to the New Testament Church? This is answered by the apostle Paul, the "wise masterbuilder" (architect, the reader of blueprints). Paul interprets this language to be "types" and "shadows," (1 Cor.10:1-11, Rom.15:4) that brings "us to Christ," (Gal.3:24, Matt.5:17-19, Heb.9:1-26) the Bridegroom. (Note: Rom.16:25-26, Acts.28:23 / Luke.24:1-45. Acts.1:3) To misread the prophets, is to miss what "the Spirit saith unto the Churches."
Phase 7 - The Tabernacle of David
This phase teaches us where the early, first century Church attained to in their preparation as the Bride of Christ. (Acts.15:1-16) A prophetic picture of where the Church is today.
Phase 8 - The Feast of Passover
This phase of the blueprint teaches the beginning of the calendar for the Bride. The feast day of Passover is a "shadow of things to come" or the one foreshadowed is Christ."(Col.2:16-17, 1 Cor.5:7-8) Passover was the beginning of the year for the "church in the wilderness." (Exod.12:1-2, Acts.7:38) Christ offering Himself as the Passover was the beginning for the Church, and it is our beginning as we are "born again." This was when Israel came out of Egypt as "a peculiar treasure...and...a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation." (Exod.19:1-6) The same is true for the believer in Christ. (1 Peter.2:5-9, Rev.1:6; 5:10) When we receive Christ, we are "penciled in" (so-to-speak) on God's calendar to be part of His Bride. I say "penciled" in because we have to make ourselves ready, (Rev.19:7) out of obedience to God's Word.
Phase 9 - The Feast of Pentecost
The Feast of Pentecost adds to the calendar for the Bride of Christ. This feast was celebrated 50 days after the Feast of Passover.(Lev.23:15-22) This was the third month in Israel's calender. It was fulfilled on the "day of Pentecost" as the Feast of Pentecost was occuring, fifty days after Passover - Grk. (Acts.2:1-17) on the same day, just as Passover was fulfilled on the same day as the actual Feast of Passover was being celebrated. God is confirming that He will abide by His calendar that was foreshadowed by the Church in the wilderness.
______________________________________________________
Note: There was yet another Feast to be celebrated in Israel's calendar, the Feast of Tabernacles. However the early first century Church never experienced the fulfillment of this Feast because by about 100 AD? they began to spiritually decline and lost all the truth that the Holy Ghost had lead (John.16:12-13) them into. This ended in the "dark ages" (500 AD.) and lasted for about a 1000 years. This darkness was broken by Martin Luther and the Reformation. (1517 AD.) and God's calendar of the Feasts was begun again with the Christ our Passover. Note the chart above. Three hundred year later (1800 AD.) this was followed by Water Baptism by immersion, (The Laver, Red Sea, Unleavened Bread). Then one hundred years after that (1906 AD.) God poured out His Spirit as He did on the day of Pentecost. (The Feast of Pentecost) For the last 100 years God has been leading the Church toward the Feast of Tabernacles completing His calendar for His Bride, the Church. (The Bride the Lamb's wife - Eph.4:11-16; 5:21-33)
Remember: One day with the Lord is as a 1000 years. Therefore it has only been half a day since the Reformation. We MUST see time as God sees it!

Phase 10 - Eschatology One
This is a study arranging the order of events in the Book of Revelation, with no interpretation and lays the foundation for identifying where the Feast of Tabernacles will take place.
Phase 11 - The Feast of Tabernacles
The purpose for introducing the Feast of Tabernacles as phase eleven is because of what the angel did during the seventh seal (Rev.8:1-3). It is an exact pattern of what Aaron, the high priest, did during the Feast of Tabernacles. The feast that the Church is coming to!
Phase 12 - Eschatology Two
This is the interpretation of the events leading up to the marriage, which is the first seal to the seventh seal. It is the interpretation of the married Woman of Revelation twelve, (The Bride of Christ) and how God protects her as God preserved Noah in the Ark during the flood.
The Conclusion
This will summarized all twelve phases and point to where the Church has come from, where it is now and where it is going.
______________________________________________________
Note: The apostle Paul says, "For we know in part"...but when that which is perfect is come (1 Cor.13:10-13, Eph.4:11-16)...then we shall know even as also I am known." This series does not presume to know it all, however I do believe we can expect the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth. (John.16:12-13, 1 Cor.2:1-14) Therefore as the Spirit of God leads, this series will be expanded and hopefully not corrected..
To be continued because we are ALWAYS learning.
The Purpose for this Website is to explain how God has foreshadowed within the "types" and "shadows" of the Old Testament scriptures, a "blueprint" for a great master plan to prepare a Bride for The Lord Jesus Christ. The early (1st.century) Church understood this to be the "prize of the high calling" (Phil.3:14) of God's Redemptive plan, and that the Church would be presented as Eve was to Adam. (Eph.5:21-33 Eve was to be a "help meet" to complete him. Gen.2:18) This is why the Church is to be a "glorious church not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; that it should be holy and without blemish," (Eph.5:27 Rom.8:29, 2 Cor.3:18, Eph.4:11-16, 1 John.3:2) a "help meet" for Christ, completing Him. Paul, the wise masterbuilder and apostle, (1Cor.3:10, Gal.1:11-12) interpreted Jesus to be the "last Adam" (1Cor.15:45, Rom.5:14) and the Church to be compared to "Eve." (2 Cor.11:1-3, Eph.5:21-33) The Lord Jesus Christ has already given Himself as Adam did in order for His Bride (the Church) to be taken from His side. This preparation has been ongoing for the last 2,000 years (2 days / 2 Peter.3:8-9) and is about to be completed.
These 12 phases build upon each other and reveal the pattern (Blueprint) that God is using.
Phase 1 - Why I use the King James Bible
It is the washing of water BY THE WORD that will prepare the "last" Eve (the Church) to be presented as a"glorious" bride "not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but it should be holy and without blemish." This is why the serpent (the Devil, Satan, Lucifer) is still saying, "...Yea, hath God said..." and provoking the Church into changing God's Word as he did with Eve in the garden. (Gen.2:16; 3:1-5, 2 Cor.11:1-3) His strategy is to corrupt God's Word and destroy our preparation as Christ's Bride. Beginning in 1881 AD. with the Revised Version, the Church has been "beguiled" (2 Cor.11:3) into changing God's Word, just as the serpent did to Eve. This has continued to "vex" the Church with every modern translation after the King James. (Compare all their doubtful footnotes)
This study identifies the "root" cause.
Phase 2 - God's Purpose for His Eternal Church
This is a study using the children of Israel leaving Egypt and possessing the Land, as an "ensample" (Grk. type) of the journey that God has, is presently, and is yet to take the Church, (the Bride of Christ) on. (Gen.12:1; 15:13-21, Exod.12:1-15 / 1 Cor.5:7-8) Deut.12:1-12, 1 Chron.17:1-15; 22:1-19, 2 Chron.5:1-14 / Eph.2:20-22,
1 Cor.10:1-11) The apostle Paul wrote, "Whatsoever things that were written aforetime (the Old Testament) were written for our (the Churches) learning. that we through patience and comfort of the (Old Testament) scriptures might have hope." (Rom.15:4, Gal.1:11-12, 2 Tim.3:16) This is the first of three patterns that overlay each other (Note: Chart above) confirming that God is working according to a deliberate plan and purpose. (The other two are, Phase 4, The Tabernacle of Moses, and Phase 8, 9,11 The Feasts of Israel).
Note: This was the content of Stephens sermon. (Acts.7:1-60)
Phase 3 - God's Redemptive Week
This Phase teaches the time frame that God is working within, to make Eve (the Bride Church). God always works in patterns of "weeks" or "sevens" (Gen.1-2, Exod.16:26, Lev.23; 25:1-7) Therefore it is not a strange thing that He would work six days and rest the seventh in His Redemptive plan for man (mankind, humanity) to be the Bride of Christ. These Redemptive days are interpreted by the apostle Peter to be 1000 year days. (2 Peter.3:1-9, Psalm.90:4)
History confirms this by the study of the "begats" of Genesis 5. They reveal that there are approximately 2,000 years (2 Redemptive days) from Adam to Abraham. Abraham to Christ can be chronicled to be another 2,000 years (2 Redemptive days), which gives 4,000 years from Adam to Christ. (4 days) Now it is understood why Israel was to keep the Passover Lamb (which foreshadows Christ - 1 Cor.5:7-8) for 4 days before killing it in the evening. (Exod.12:1-6) When Adam sinned, Christ our Passover was taken and kept 4,000 years (4 days) and crucified at the end (i.e. the evening) of the fourth day. Our calendar (which not accurate) places us 2,000 years AD. (another 2 days) completing almost 6,000 years since Adam, or 6 days before the Lord.
Now apply the pattern that God stops working after six days, and rests the seventh. (Gen.2:1-2)
Jesus will NOT return until the mystery of God is finished, (Rev.10:7, Acts.3:21) which coincides with the end of the sixth day. Then there is a 1000 year rest, the ultimate Sabbath. The seventh day! (Rev.20:5) Time is running out! The Bride is about to be completed!
Note: This study IS NOT saying that Jesus is returning at the year 2,000 AD. because obviously He did not. However, it does give a picture of the urgency of the hour. One thing is for sure, our generation, is the closest yet to the Marriage of Christ and His Church.
Phase 4 - The Tabernacle of Moses
The Tabernacle of Moses confirms that the Spirit of God is leading (John.16:12-13) the Church (Bride) according to the same pattern revealed in Israel's journey from Egypt to the promised land. (Note:The chart above) This is the second witness. (Deut.19:15, Matt.18:16, 2 Cor.13:1)
When Moses was about to make the Tabernacle, God reminded him many times to "make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee on the mount." (Heb.8:5, Exod.25:9,40) The reason for this is because it is a pattern of "heaven itself" (Heb.8:5; 9:24) This pattern is given by "inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man (Grk.- a human being - Strong's) of God may be perfect, through furnished" and prepared as the Bride of Christ. (2 Tim.3:16-17, Eph.4:11-16)
Note on the chart above how the Brazen Altar parallels Israels deliverance from Egypt, and the Feast of Passover. They all begin with atoning blood shed. Also note how the Laver parallels the Red Sea which both speak of separation from the old life. (Water Baptism - Rom.6:1-11)
Phase 5 - Daniel's Visions and Prophecies
Daniel's visions and prophecies teaches us the balance between the Church being the Bride of Christ and why God's Covenantal hand is still upon the Jews today. (Abraham's children of the flesh Rom.9:1-8)
Phase 6 - Interpreting the Prophets
God's Redemptive purpose has unfolded as each book of the Bible is read from Genesis through to the book of Acts and the Epistles. After this there appears to be a gap, until the last day and the Book of Revelation. There is no gap! The apostle Peter declared that "all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after... have likewise foretold of these days," (the "apparent gap.") (Acts.2:16-36; 3:18-25) This makes the language of the Prophets, crucial in understanding our present day, because they have already prophesied about the decline and restoration of the Church to be the Bride.
However when the Prophets speak, they speak of the Tabernacle of Moses, Levitical priesthood, Feast days, Five offerings, Divers washings and ordinances, and the journey of Israel from Egypt to the Promised Land. How does this relate to the New Testament Church? This is answered by the apostle Paul, the "wise masterbuilder" (architect, the reader of blueprints). Paul interprets this language to be "types" and "shadows," (1 Cor.10:1-11, Rom.15:4) that brings "us to Christ," (Gal.3:24, Matt.5:17-19, Heb.9:1-26) the Bridegroom. (Note: Rom.16:25-26, Acts.28:23 / Luke.24:1-45. Acts.1:3) To misread the prophets, is to miss what "the Spirit saith unto the Churches."
Phase 7 - The Tabernacle of David
This phase teaches us where the early, first century Church attained to in their preparation as the Bride of Christ. (Acts.15:1-16) A prophetic picture of where the Church is today.
Phase 8 - The Feast of Passover
This phase of the blueprint teaches the beginning of the calendar for the Bride. The feast day of Passover is a "shadow of things to come" or the one foreshadowed is Christ."(Col.2:16-17, 1 Cor.5:7-8) Passover was the beginning of the year for the "church in the wilderness." (Exod.12:1-2, Acts.7:38) Christ offering Himself as the Passover was the beginning for the Church, and it is our beginning as we are "born again." This was when Israel came out of Egypt as "a peculiar treasure...and...a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation." (Exod.19:1-6) The same is true for the believer in Christ. (1 Peter.2:5-9, Rev.1:6; 5:10) When we receive Christ, we are "penciled in" (so-to-speak) on God's calendar to be part of His Bride. I say "penciled" in because we have to make ourselves ready, (Rev.19:7) out of obedience to God's Word.
Phase 9 - The Feast of Pentecost
The Feast of Pentecost adds to the calendar for the Bride of Christ. This feast was celebrated 50 days after the Feast of Passover.(Lev.23:15-22) This was the third month in Israel's calender. It was fulfilled on the "day of Pentecost" as the Feast of Pentecost was occuring, fifty days after Passover - Grk. (Acts.2:1-17) on the same day, just as Passover was fulfilled on the same day as the actual Feast of Passover was being celebrated. God is confirming that He will abide by His calendar that was foreshadowed by the Church in the wilderness.
______________________________________________________
Note: There was yet another Feast to be celebrated in Israel's calendar, the Feast of Tabernacles. However the early first century Church never experienced the fulfillment of this Feast because by about 100 AD? they began to spiritually decline and lost all the truth that the Holy Ghost had lead (John.16:12-13) them into. This ended in the "dark ages" (500 AD.) and lasted for about a 1000 years. This darkness was broken by Martin Luther and the Reformation. (1517 AD.) and God's calendar of the Feasts was begun again with the Christ our Passover. Note the chart above. Three hundred year later (1800 AD.) this was followed by Water Baptism by immersion, (The Laver, Red Sea, Unleavened Bread). Then one hundred years after that (1906 AD.) God poured out His Spirit as He did on the day of Pentecost. (The Feast of Pentecost) For the last 100 years God has been leading the Church toward the Feast of Tabernacles completing His calendar for His Bride, the Church. (The Bride the Lamb's wife - Eph.4:11-16; 5:21-33)
Remember: One day with the Lord is as a 1000 years. Therefore it has only been half a day since the Reformation. We MUST see time as God sees it!

Phase 10 - Eschatology One
This is a study arranging the order of events in the Book of Revelation, with no interpretation and lays the foundation for identifying where the Feast of Tabernacles will take place.
Phase 11 - The Feast of Tabernacles
The purpose for introducing the Feast of Tabernacles as phase eleven is because of what the angel did during the seventh seal (Rev.8:1-3). It is an exact pattern of what Aaron, the high priest, did during the Feast of Tabernacles. The feast that the Church is coming to!
Phase 12 - Eschatology Two
This is the interpretation of the events leading up to the marriage, which is the first seal to the seventh seal. It is the interpretation of the married Woman of Revelation twelve, (The Bride of Christ) and how God protects her as God preserved Noah in the Ark during the flood.
The Conclusion
This will summarized all twelve phases and point to where the Church has come from, where it is now and where it is going.
______________________________________________________
Note: The apostle Paul says, "For we know in part"...but when that which is perfect is come (1 Cor.13:10-13, Eph.4:11-16)...then we shall know even as also I am known." This series does not presume to know it all, however I do believe we can expect the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth. (John.16:12-13, 1 Cor.2:1-14) Therefore as the Spirit of God leads, this series will be expanded and hopefully not corrected..
To be continued because we are ALWAYS learning.
