A Holy Priesthood - serving God today
Entrance
• Only the priests, holy men
appointed by God could enter
the courtyard to serve
• The first thing they approach
is the ALTAR of sacrifice
• Before entering the Holy
Place the priest had to wash
in the LAVER
• Then the priest entered the
tabernacle
Hebrews 10
19. Having therefore, brethren, boldness to
enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
20. by the way which he dedicated for us, a new
and living way, through the veil, that is to say,
his flesh;
21. and having a great priest over the house of
God;
22. let us draw near with a true heart in
fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled
from an evil conscience: and having our
body washed with pure water,
The Picture
• Before entering the tabernacle
as a priest of God today, the
Christian must first pass by
the cross (Faith) and then
wash (Baptism).
• Then the Christian enters into
the presence of God to serve
continually.
• The Christian never leaves
the tabernacle
The True Tabernacle
• Heaven itself, access to the
very presence of God
• The veil has been torn and
there is NO longer anything
separating the priest from
God
• We have access through
Jesus to everything we need
to live and serve before God
Jesus Christ – our everything
• The bread of life
• The light of the world
• Our mediator
• Table of Showbread
• The Lampstand
• The altar of incense
• Our mercy seat / our atonement / our access
into the very presence of God
• As a priest we are sanctified and equipped to
serve God in holiness and truth
Our Spiritual Sacrifices
Hebrews 10:6-9
• 1 Peter 2:5
• Hebrews 13:15-16
• Romans 12:1
• Idleness not
acceptable to God
• John 9:4
Holy Service in the presence of God
Unacceptable behaviors
• Unauthorized activities
– Leviticus 9-10
• Works of the flesh
– Galatians 5:14-21
• Divisions
– 1 Corinthians 1:10-11
• Sexual sins
– Numbers 25:1-15
– 2 Corinthians 7:1
Living in the Presence of God
Hebrews 4:11-13
11. Let us therefore give diligence to enter into
that rest, that no man fall after the same
example of disobedience.
12. For the word of God is living, and active, and
sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing
even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both
joints and marrow, and quick to discern the
thoughts and intents of the heart.
13. And there is no creature that is not
manifest in his sight: but all things are naked
and laid open before the eyes of him with whom
we have to do.
Holy Living
1 Peter 1
13. Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind,
be sober and set your hope perfectly on the
grace that is to be brought unto you at the
revelation of Jesus Christ;
14. as children of obedience, not fashioning
yourselves according to your former lusts in the
time of your ignorance:
15. but like as he who called you is holy, be ye
yourselves also holy in all manner of living;
16. because it is written, Ye shall be holy; for I am
holy.

Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14. as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in the time of your ignorance: 15. but like as he who called you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living; 16. because it is written, Ye shall be holy; for I am holy.
