Becoming a Kingdom of Priests in Light of the Melchizedekian Order-Part 6 of our Melchizedek Series

In this 6th installment in our Melchizedek series, we discuss the concept of a royal priesthood as originally intended by Yah in Exodus 19. We focus on the importance of obedience to Yah's covenant for the establishment of this priesthood as well as we cover:
- Yah's Intent for a Priesthood: Yah intended for a royal priesthood among His people,
as stated in Exodus 19, where He called Israel to be a kingdom of priests.

- Melchizedek's Role:
The figure of Melchizedek represents a royal priest, combining the roles
of king and priest, predating the Levitical priesthood.
- Levitical Priesthood Establishment: The Levitical priesthood was established after Israel
broke the covenant by worshiping the Golden Calf, restricting priestly
duties to the tribe of Levi.
- Covenant with Yah:
The covenant was ratified at Mount Sinai, where Israel accepted Yah's
terms, which included becoming a set-apart nation if they obeyed His laws.

- Golden Calf Incident:
The Golden Calf incident illustrates Israel's failure to remain faithful
to Yah, leading to the establishment of the Levitical priesthood as a
response to their unfaithfulness.
- Yah's Expectations:
Yah requires His people to guard His covenant to achieve the royal
priesthood status; without obedience, this status cannot be realized.
- Priestly Functions:
The document discusses the priestly functions of educating others in Yah’s
Torah and modeling righteous behavior, which are central to fulfilling the
role of a priest.
- Future Fulfillment:
The original vision for a royal priesthood will ultimately be fulfilled
through the ministry of Yeshua, who represents the Melchizedekian
priesthood.
