New Order of Beings
type: item
description: Sage, Gary was talking about the Temple & relating it to the Body of Christ, so I wanted to show that we have a different purpose than Israel. I said - Quote: `However the Body of Christ is of a different order, KingPriests, where there is no `male or female, `differences. To be given a body like Christ`s, & where there is no marriage (in heaven) shows that it is a new body for a new order of beings.` And you enquired – Quote: `I don`t really understand what you are trying to say.....What do you mean by a new order of beings. I can`t say I have ever heard that expression from a Christian point of view. Thank you.` A very interesting question, Sage, & one I would loved to expound upon. `The Body of Christ is of a different order, Kingpriests.` `Jesus...having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.` (Heb. 6: 20) `The Lord (God) has sworn & will not change His mind, Thou (Christ) art a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.` (Ps. 110: 4) `Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the Lord, & He who will bear the honour, & sit & rule on His throne. Thus He will be a priest on His throne, & the counsel of peace will be between the two offices.` (Zech. 6: 13) The order of Melchizedek is a King Priest – a royal Priest. Previously in Israel there were kings & there were priests but they were separate offices. However Father God is saying that with Christ He is a King & a Priest, (as the type Melchizedek was). It is a different order than the Aaronic Priesthood that was only temporary & added because of transgressions. But Christ`s order of Priesthood (KingPriest) is before the Aaronic Priesthood & not temporary – `the former priests, on the other hand, existed in greater numbers, because they were prevented by death from continuing, but He, on the other hand, because He abides forever, holds His priesthood permanently. Hence, also, He is able to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make i…

description: Hi Marylin, Quote: Now Christ being a High Priest shows that there are other priests, (High Priest over other priests) & these would be of the same order – King Priest "these would be of the same order" <- This premise is not substantiated. To think that redeemed people will be/are of the order of Melchizedek (king-priest) in God's eyes is a potentially dangerous idea. The "order of Melchizedek" was something unique to Jesus.

description: Jman, Thank you for your thoughts. Just a general comment first. Some people think, why do we study Eschatology or the eternal Purposes, as that is for the future, but they do not realise that these important topics actually effect our everyday life, right to the core, as our discussion today will show. The foundations – Because we haven`t known each other very long it can seem like you are on one continent & I`m on another & we are both shouting to be heard. But as we travel more together & discuss various topics a greater understanding of each other – attitude & beliefs – foundations develop. Gary & I have been on Andrew Strom`s site for a while so we have developed an understanding of the other person & trust has built. (foundations) I know that as we all share more on OO that the joy of `comprehending with all the saints....` & `as each joint supplies...` we`ll `grow up into Christ who is our Head.` What an awesome journey. Error – I am very thankful to William who pointed out to me my error re: Rev. 4: 2 on the word, `One.` I am pleased to be shown my error & the truth, as who wants to live in the dark, but rather desire to come more into His light, His truth, because that is what changes us by His Holy Spirit, as we all know. And I`m sure I`ll need more corrections as we discuss more topics. KingPriests – Because of our carnal nature we all have to address the error of believing kingship means, `lording it over, superior, & other subservient, etc.` Our selfishness desires to be kingpin. Have our own way, be first, be entitled etc, etc & this shows up in everyday life especially to those closest to us. Everyday we have the choice to be first or be the servant. Today`s reading by the Holy Spirit through Gary is all about being that servant & that is the heart of what Christ means when He says that we will rule with Him. It is as a servant, (servant king). We find that hard to get our head around as these concepts seem totally opposite, but as we by the Holy Spir…

To be given a body like Christ`s, & where there is no marriage (in heaven) shows that it is a new body for a new order of beings." Then I asked: Is it because in heaven there is no marriage therefore it is okay for women to be called to the 5-fold ministry of teacher or pastor or evangelist or apostle? I am just wondering if you believe they can function in these offices.

description: Marilyn, I'm starting to understand what everyone is saying here. I don't think we can come up with all new types of Wording that does not exist in the Word of God. For instance: New Order of Beings. No where is this term used by Paul or any of the Apostles. Unless you can establish what you are saying in the mouth of two or three witnesses in scripture it all becomes bogus. In college when you are told to write a paper on a certain Biblical subject you must prove all your statements with scripture. Everything must be proven with scripture, and that means not pulling one out of context to prove a point, and adding your own interpretation. Since what your saying is not found in scripture it then sounds like new age information. Your completely adding new terms here that are not Bible based. Whenever you start saying things that are not found directly in scripture then it makes everything you say suspect. I thought it was just cultural terms here that was the issue but now I see your adding things to the Bible that have no basis in scripture. Do you have a web page with a doctrinal creed that your church propagates? The information your stating sounds like it comes from a different Book then the Bible. Gary

(from 26 translations of the Holy Bible) New creations under Christ`s Royal Priesthood in the order of Melchizedek. And so how would you say what we are? Marilyn.

description: Sage, Thankyou for bringing my attention to the other part of your good questions. I said - Quote: "However the Body of Christ is of a different order, KingPriests, where there is no `male or female,` differences. To be given a body like Christ`s, & where there is no marriage (in heaven) shows that it is a new body for a new order of beings." Body of Christ - Kingpriests. `He has made us to be kingpriests to His God & Father...` (Rev. 1: 6) `But ye are....a royal priesthood...` (1 Peter 2: 9) No male or female - `For all of you who were baptised into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.` (Gal. 3: 28) No marriage in heaven -`Is this not the reason you are mistaken, that you do not understand the Scriptures, or the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage but are like the angels in heaven.` (Mark 12: 24 & 25) People in the Body of Christ are a new creature, a new creation, a new being. (2 Cor. 5: 17) `Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.` `Therefore, if any one is in union with Christ, he is a new being..` (TCNT - The Twentieth century New testament.) Order - `Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the people received the Law), what further need was there for another priest to arise according to the order of Melchizedek, & not be designated according to the order of Aaron?` (Heb. 7: 11) `New creations under Christ`s Royal Priesthood in the order of Melchizedek.` This is what I have written to Gary so I hope that is in language that we can understand & agree on. Hope that explains it better. Marilyn.

description: Marilyn, William hasn't 'transfered the power"lol of moderating on these newest Sections so rather than just 'fix' peoples mistakes I will just have to point them out<kindly>. Your quoting of II Corinthians 6:17 in a couple of posts isn't correct, I believe you meant II Corinthians 5:17. Also, I believe your answer to Sue about whether you believe women can/should hold the offices or positions of the 5-fold isn't clear. (I think I already have a clear understanding that you do believe that, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.) And while this certainly isn't a 'rule' amongest us, generally we use the KJV; so it's possible(and even very likely) that you're drawing conclusions from scripture different than we are using various translations.

description: Sage, Sorry to have made such a confusion on my posts. Now your question is - Quote: `Is it because in heaven there is no marriage therefore it is okay for women to be called to the 5-fold ministry of teacher or pastor or evangelist or apostle?` No that is not what I meant as I was trying to explain the difference between the old order of priests & Christ`s `new` order.(which actually was before the Aaronic order of priests) But you did ask about women & the 5-fold ministries. I was brought up to believe they were just men. And these ministries should always function together & not be isolated from each other. Personally I don`t like women running Christian organisations as the sole leader. To me there should always be multiple leadership responsibility. And in todays`s Christian organisations we see more of the CEO type of leadership & not necessarily the 5-fold ministries. Finally I believe God gifts women as Shepherds, teachers, evangelists but I have not seen the 5-fold Prophetic or Apostleship by a woman as yet - but that is only my observation. Christ is the Head & through out many countries there could be these operating as such. So its only my belief, Marilyn.

Thanks for clarifying this you may want to switch versions when trying to explain this stuff. It sounded like a foreign language for a minute. There was another word I seen you use, it was terrestrial but I understood what you were saying there. I would say we are new "creations". A few word changes does make a difference. Gary P.S.

Re: New Order of Beings

description: Jman, I am not bringing out any new doctrine. However I hope that together we all can read God`s word to clarify what He is saying to us. I see scripture tells us that we are in Christ & of His priesthood, which is of the order of Melchizedek, (King Priest). In the tabernacle when Aaron was High Priest over other priests, they were his sons but they were not Royal, & their offices were not perpetual & their sacrifices were not spiritual, etc. With Christ who is our High Priest, He is Royal, & His office is eternal & his sacrifice & offerings are forever effectual. (Heb.Ch.7&8) And as our High Priest – `it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things & by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory...` (Heb. 2: 10) Now sons of God brings with it responsibility & we are told that we will be kings & priests. Kingship – activity, Priesthood – worship. Christ is a priest & as a High Priest He is over other priests (sons). Christ is a king & as King of kings He is over other kings. (sons) Thus we will be kings & priests of Christ`s eternal Priesthood & not of the Aaronic order of priests which were not royal & only tempory. Marilyn.

The KJV translates it: "And hath made us kings and priests unto God..." The grk verb translated "hath made" is an "aorist active indicative" which means that we who are in Christ, are already kings and priests. This isn't some future event that takes place when our bodies are changed. With that information in mind we ought to be able to look at the lives of Paul, Peter, John and others in the NT and find examples that show us exactly how the…

We are new creations/beings now, in heaven what takes place we only have a small idea because we look through the mirror dimly and do not have full understanding. 12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. Marilyn why do you use this version of the Bible, Do you think its closer to the Greek/Hebrew or what? The New King James Version that I use does away with old archaic words that we do not use today, like thee, thou, etc. I do find though some words are not from literal greek but I think this is because of copyright laws, but it is closer to the original text for the most part.

Don't want to change the thread here of any investigation or interrogation of Marilyn's doctrines. LOLOLOL But my wife and I was talking about this subject the other day, that William mentioned above. Give some one a little authority or some title in life and immediately they wave it around like they hit the lottery. I think it has to deal with "self" importance or "self" esteem. Someone at her place of employment had a new position of authority and power and it changed they way they thought and acted. Anyway there is a lot of truth in what your sharing here and sadly it carries over into the body of Christ. For some reason certain titles carry an air of importance to some and it elevates them over their fellow man. Even titles with in the five fold bring a level of importance to peoples minds. Its easy to talk about dying to self, actual living it is a whole different ballgame. Gary

I agree that women should not be the leader of a church, and for that matter I don’t even care for them to be CEO’s or Supervisors in the work place. In all my years of working I have only had one female boss that was any good. She had the respect of all who worked under her, both male and female. The other female bosses all seemed to have something to prove, or a pride issue, or domineering/authoritative attitudes. From the beginning of time God has set male leadership in all aspects of our lives, the Temple, the home, the local assembly, and the government. I can’t think of anyplace in the New Testament where God put women in a position of leadership in the church. There were men elders, men pastors, men apostles, men evangelist, men teachers all functioning in the 5-fold ministry in the church. The only 5-fold position that could possibly be a female was prophetess. I don’t see that as having changed. The women in God’s eyes are not less than the man, but has a different function in the home and the local assembly. Because God calls the man to be the head of the home and the local assembly does not make the women inferior in God’s eye. Maybe because we see so little male leadership in …

description: William, Thank you for being interested in what I believe & I do appreciate your comments & study. We all know these wonderful truths & it`s good to meditate on them for it brings forth thanksgiving, awe & praises to our wonderful Lord & Saviour, Jesus Christ. I hope I can explain myself to you. `Christ....has made us kings & priests to His God & Father...` (Rev. 1: 6 NKJ) William explained to us that this means `already kings & priests.` (my husband Trevor said, `have you got your crown yet William?` lol) Now I believe what you say in relation to the now & then aspect. God tells us we are His sons but we have not yet come into our full inheritance. This new life, as God`s sons, is the resurrection life of Christ that is being formed in us, as we all know, however to be given full responsibility & authority as kings & priests comes with maturity, (in heaven) Here are some scriptures so we can get God`s thoughts. `The first man Adam became a living being. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.`(1 Cor. 15: 45) (Christ`s resurrection life.) `But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God....` (John 1: 12) (sons of God) `And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, `Abba, Father!` Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, & if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.` (Gal. 4: 6 & 7) (sons & heirs) `The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, & if children, then heirs – heirs of God & joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.` (Rom. 8: 16 & 17) (& even joint heirs with Christ) God has given us an example of this resurrection life within someone, showing how this Christ life overcomes the flesh, the world (system of man) & the devil. It is the life of Christ firstly & then the Apostle Paul`s life is displayed to us & the suffering he went through - ` if indeed we suffer with Him, that we ma…

description: GWB, I have pretty much decided that my spoon is not big enough to bail out Marylin's ocean everyday so I thought I might give you more info as to what to watch out for. ============================= Example of Truth: Believers are "in Christ' this results in: have authority in spiritual realm have imputed righteousness called to imitate Christ in daily life have eternal life can approach the Father as Abba Father ("child of God" or "son" of God - small "s" ) generally are in fellowship with God ============================== ============================== Example of Silliness: Say someone convinced you that you are "in the order of James Bond" the movie spy this results in: you have a license to kill - Un-Spriptural you say? But "the James Bond order" trumps the other Scriptures you can imitate Bond with a worldly lifestyle more??? If you accept the premise that you are in the order of James Bond then you are open to many possible re-writes of Scriptural doctrines. The key is to sell you on the original premise. ============================== No one could sell you on the James Bond idea, but say someone convinced you that you are "in the order of Melchizedek" ( Note: Jesus is of the order of Melchizedek, but human beings are not. ) Now that person can define what the order of Melchizedek includes. Their definition is wide open because this Melchizedek doctrine is not in the Bible. If you have bought into their Melchizedek doctrine then they can have you dismiss other Scriptures because, after all, you are of the order of Melchizedek. ============================== Example of Dangerous: You are "in the order of Melchizedek" this results in: ??? ?? ? Notice the results are not known/given - not until first you are sold on the Melchizedek doctrine. =========================================== GWB, these are some ideas to store in your back pocket as you watch this thread.

description: GWB wrote on Fri, 06 December 2013 22:59 This has been very interesting and informative. I think it would be helpful if all views would be put into an outline form. This way, we could compare all aspects. I would like to begin with your outline, wishing34. It would be helpful as to why this does not agree with your theology. The concept of an outline, for me at least, is to present a complete overview of the material. It's like a ladder. I'd like to see where the ladder is going to take me before I start climbing. Now I'm not so naive as to think that there's only one way to teach, but I can tell you the method being employed right now isn't working for me. Let me say again, I'm not AGAINST anyone presenting material to the best of their abilities... no one has been perfected in that department, but what I am saying is that the method being used is not working at all for me. Marilyn's method may be working for others but to me this is what I'm getting: 1. Someone says something... (it may just be a random comment). 2. The provokes a grand dump of material supposedly relevant to the comment. 3. This of course causes others to make comments on bits and pieces of the grand dump of material that was supposed to answer the first comment. 4. More grand dumps of material (complete with their own section) follow, again, supposedly to answer the questions raised by others. 5. William's mind -- Blown fuse. Now maybe my mind is predisposed to be being blown and others are grasping what is being said/taught and it makes perfect sense to them. Or maybe this is a fundamental male/female gap that will never be bridged. An outline does what a map would do for a person traveling. It presents an overview of where we are going and the route we are going to take to get there. I've got to have that map, or I'm not going to even start the journey. The random, piecemeal, presentation of the material may be giving some the impression that something great is being built but it is just a pil…

description: I appreciate everyone's ideas on how to present this topic that is being discussed. I still think an outline from Jman is needed first for comparison. It would be a baseline for all of us to look at so we could stay on track. It would also offer valuable information on the topic. Not everybody reading or participating has your vast knowledge and gift of interpreting scripture, Jman. Maybe you could be so kind as to share one. If you ask someone to present something like this, you should be willing to do the same. Marilyn is new to OO. Be it male or female, I am sure we all want to show Marilyn our love and kindness that we learned at FA when people are talking about the Word. I am sure that nobody here, who claim to be Overcomers, wants to be guilty of sarcasm, tongue in cheek, condescending to others, or maybe even having an unloving attitude. For now, I don't think this has anything to do with the original topic. I think it is now about how we treat people in disagreements. God has given many on OO talents for teaching, sharing, dividing scripture, and knowledge of faith. "Faith works by love." If love is not involved in any conversation, how genius it may be, people are clanging cymbals in God's eyes. Maybe you are right, William. Because this involves a woman's opinion, it might be impossible to come to a conclusion. However, it is not impossible to show a right attitude and love towards the brethren when talking about the Bible in any situation we find ourselves. Many people have been discouraged and have left OO due to this very reason. I hope this will not be the case with this topic. I hold no ill feelings towards anyone. This is just what I see. I hope my opinion will be considered.

description: Here is a brief history of this doctrine: Quote: Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah spoken of as "a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek" (Ps. 110:4), and so Jesus plays the role of the king-priest once and for all. According to the writer of Hebrews (7:13-17) Jesus is considered a priest in the order of Melchizedek because, like Melchizedek, Jesus was not a descendant of Aaron, and thus would not qualify for the Jewish priesthood under Law of Moses. Melchizedek is referred to again in Hebrews 5:6-10; Hebrews 6:20; Hebrews 7:1-21: "Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek"; and Hebrews 8:1. And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises" (Hebrews 7:5-6). If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law" (Hebrews 7:11-12). The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews in the New Testament discussed this subject considerably, listing the following reasons for why the priesthood of Melchizedek is superior to the Aaronic priesthood: 1.Abraham paid tithes to Melchizedek; later, the Levites would receive tithes from their countrymen. Since Aaron was in Abraham's loins then, it was as if the Aaronic priesthood were paying tithes to Melchizedek. (Heb. 7:4-10) 2.The one who blesses is always greater than the one being blessed. Thus, Melchizedek was greater than Abraham. As Levi was yet in the loins of Abraham, it follows that Melchizedek is greater than Levi. (Heb. 7:7-10) 3.If the pries…

In the Old Testament tabernacle and temple, there were places where only the priests could go. Into the Holy of Holies, behind a thick veil, only the High Priest could go, and that only once a year on the Day of Atonement when he made a sin offering on behalf of all of the people. Because of Jesus' death upon the cross of Calvary, all believers now have direct access to the throne of God as royal priests through Jesus Christ our great High Priest (Hebrews 4:14-16). We can access the throne of God because of the shed Blood of Jesus, He paid the price and made this possible. I guess we don't think of ourselves as being priests in this capacity. Gary

I don't know of anyone who things of themselves as priests part of a priesthood. I think its like an example showing us we have access to the throne.

description: The OT priests had three basic functions: 1- To serve God, 2- To serve the people, 3- to offer sacrifices on behalf of the people (and themselves). The third function was rendered unnecessary by Jesus Christ. In fact the whole idea of a physical priesthood was removed at the cross. With that in mind, a royal priesthood, in the NT sense would be metaphorical and not literal. I think the same thing could be said concerning believers being kings but you didn't ask about that. This doesn't mean that the term is an irrelevant distinction. All believers are called to serve God and serve others as spiritual priests. The verse Gary quoted essentially says just that --"that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light" (1 Peter 2:5-9) We are a chosen nation, holy people, a royal priesthood to do what? --to "proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light". Jesus gives believers the awesome responsibility to mediate (function as a priest) his gospel to others. We represent (minister) God to others and at the same time minister to God with our worship. There is no formal "order" here. We're not like the Catholics who relish the setting up of specific "orders" (like the monastic order) which implies some sort of physical structure/office that we as believers function in.

Why did not woman come into the temple to serve is some capacity? Because it was never the Lord's Will. It is no different today God has called men who are created in His image to run churches and have authority over them.` And I thought that concept was very Catholic also. But I wanted more information. Thus our discussion developed & went off into many areas. A word concerning your comments to me about `my method.` I realise now that men tend to like the `bottom line,` approach & women like the details.

Thus my approach is to bring up topics but also to follow the conversation so you can all understand where I am coming from. That is the foundation of good discussions but we are having to work through the `errors.` And Gary found the big one -Dominionism. And this great deceptive error is through out Christianity & twists all the doctrines of the Bible. Now you know I don`t believe in that false teaching, more understanding is developing between us. You need to give me & others time to work through many topics in the Bible to understand where we are coming from. Of course I would expect you all to discern very carefully what I or anyone else says, but give time & grace for conversations to develop for the men & for the women.

God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever, has from the beginning made man to be created in His image and to rule over the earth. We know the whole story of what took place. When the Lord gave them the design of the temple, it was men who the Lord used to work in the temple, woman had an outer court. Why did not woman come into the temple to serve is some capacity? Because it was never the Lord's Will. It is no different today God has called men who are created in His image to run churches and have authority over them. This is just the way God wanted it to be, its not in our power to change God's order we just have to believe and accept it. We must never add to or take away from what God has said in His Word. Women were created for men not to teach them nor to rule over them. It's God's design and we as His creation just have to accept it.

Not necessarily... one might walk into a wild meeting where some were barking and some were making chicken noises and make the statement -- "this place is a zoo!". No one would think that it was necessary to correct the obvious implication and meaning by saying --"no brother, don't you mean that this place is LIKE a zoo!" The literal priesthood of Israel with all of its trappings had come to an end with the renting of the veil of the temple. All believers had the same access to God as the literal priests in the OT. There was no temple. There was no more sacrifice. There was no more need for a mediator between God and man. Likewise, when Peter says you are an holy nation, there would be no need for him to explain that he didn't mean a "nation" in the political sense, just as there would be no reason for him to stop and explain his meaning was not to be taken as a literal nation.

We are not priests in the literal sense of the word. The word "priesthood" used in the passage (1Pet 2:9) is obviously (at least to me) meant to be a description of something using an implied comparison, not a literal comparison, which makes it by definition metaphorical.

description: William, You said Quote: `All believers are called to serve God and serve others as spiritual priests.` I agree. And I believe God`s word puts the emphasis on the actual & reveals the shadow as such, a `copy & shadow.` `...For if He (Christ) were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law; who serve the COPY & SHADOW of the heavenly things, ....` (Heb. 8: 4 & 5) You again said - Quote: "...that metaphorically speaking we are spiritual priests." We are not priests in the literal sense of the word. This puts the wrong emphasis onto the copy & the shadow & not on the reality, which is Christ, the priest from whom all priests have their pattern. `See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.` `Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a high priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister of the sanctuary & of the true tabernacle which the Lord erected, & not man.` (Heb. 8: 1 & 2) Christ`s priesthood is the reality not man`s copy & shadow. This was given by God for us to understand Christ`s ministries. And the statement of us `a royal priesthood,` indicates that it is not of the copy & shadow, but of the reality, Christ`s Priesthood which is royal. His is a Royal Priesthood, while this kingly aspect was not of the copy & shadow priests. Christ`s Kingship, as we know was presented to us in a separate office of Kingship by King David.

I have nothing to offer in rebuttal to that. So when you say: Quote: Christ`s priesthood is the reality not man`s copy & shadow given by God for us to understand Christ`s ministries. I say amen. Man's copy, as you phrased it, had specific functions and requirements, all of which have been done away with now that Jesus has completed His work. They wore special clothes, had specific duties, ministered at the temple, sacrificed, received the tithes from the people, carried the actual Ark of the covenant in the wilderness, participated in the hierarchy of the priesthood, were distinct from the other tribes of God's chosen, derived their livelihood from the rest of God's chosen, burned incense, etc.. None of which applies to the metaphorical priesthood, namely us. Gal 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." This passage, if it teaches us anything, teaches us that there is no difference between believers with respect to hierarchy. As they say, "the ground is level at the foot of the cross." The OT priesthood is nothing without hierarchy. (I think the word is even derived from the Greek word for priest!) I don't see any type/anti-type between the Levitical priesthood and believers, not in any sense that we see the type/anti-type between the high priest and Jesus. That isn't to say that there aren't some similarities that would enable us to speak in metaphorical language to describe ourselves as ambassadors of Jesus Christ ON BEHALF OF THE LOST WORLD. We've looked at Peter's usage of the term "priesthood" and we can allow for the concept that in some measure we have the responsibility to serve/minister the gospel to those who have yet to experience the good news.

An outline of the eternal purposes of God could be something like this: I. God decided to create man. II. God decided to reveal Himself to His creation. III. God allowed man to fall in order to reveal Himself in a more complete way to His creation. IV. God reveals that sin offends His nature and must be punished. V. God reveals that He is merciful (a new concept to Adam who had no way of understanding the awesome Love of God until he sinned) VI. God reveals that only He can provide a method for mankind to be restored to fellowship, How? --the innocent must die for the guilty. VII. God drives home this point via the sacrificial system. VIII. Man begins to understand that he cannot do anything to permanently restore fellowship without completely trusting God to do it. Man fails repeatedly. IIX. God, after helping mankind see the futility of all of their efforts, takes the initiative, and provides for man's inability Himself. He provides His own Lamb --Jesus! ...for the restoration of mankind. IX. Mankind begins to grasp the wonderful Being that is GOD! X. Those who grasp the revelation of God, are restored to fellowship, they are filled with an understanding of His nature, and they praise and love Him forever! That is the eternal purpose of God in a nutshell but it tells us nothing about the subject you introduced that is causing all of the stir. I'm sure you agree with the ten point outline I've presented, just like I agree with your attempt at an outline (unless there is a veiled reference to the ultimate reconciliation doctrine that denies "eternal" punishment --and by eternal I mean eternal, not just a long time!) but it does nothing to address the specific point tha…

The typology of that is as God`s word tells us, Melchizedek, a King Priest rather than just a priest, or just a king. It is what we all know from scripture. The point of difference I see is that I believe we function as priests & kings, worshipping & serving, in the heavenly realms in eternity. I never called my beliefs a Melchizedek doctrine.

Seems like your putting words in my mouth here, that don't exist. Quote: `When the Lord gave them the design of the temple, it was men who the Lord used to work in the temple..` Isn`t that referring to the priests? Marilyn. Marilyn, Hi, I'm saying all of this in a nice, kind tone, so read it in that narrative. It's an emphatic "No" I was not referring to the priests or even trying to imply it was priests. Your making it Priests. The point I was making is that God always used men in the temple for ministry. God used men in every realm to lead the people. But I think I know now why you keep insisting on this word priest, as the Spirit has shown me. Your trying to tie the two in together. The priests in the old testament and now these royal priests who are mentioned in the New Testament, that you see as literal ministry rather then a type. William laid it out very clearly what these scriptures are teaching. In using your method your trying to prove that now women are called to be ministers of the Word since they are priests and kings before the throne. Since there are no direct scriptures telling us women are to teach or rule over men then these scriptures are being woven together to mean something they are not saying. If what your saying is true then you can feel justified in teaching men. Marilyn we on earth don't make the rules God is the one who created man in His image woman came from man that is just the facts. 2 Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

Are we clanging cymbals and browbeating or are we showing the love and compassion of Jesus when others don't grasp doctrine or the Word? The answer lies in the fruit of what everyone has shared. What is the fruit of this topic that we have discussed? Have we ministered life or death and condemnation? I have my answers. I hope other will wisely consider their conclusions.

But "the James Bond order" trumps the other Scriptures you can imitate Bond with a worldly lifestyle more??? If you accept the premise that you are in the order of James Bond then you are open to many possible re-writes of Scriptural doctrines. The key is to sell you on the original premise. ============================== No one could sell you on the James Bond idea, but say someone convinced you that you are "in the order of Melchizedek" ( Note: Jesus is of the order of Melchizedek, but human beings are not. ) Now that person can define what the order of Melchizedek includes. Their definition is wide open because this Melchizedek doctrine is not in the Bible.

Just for the record, Jman, I don't believe Marilyn is trying to be slippery (slimy), crafty (suggests manipulation which is witchcraft), or non-answers. These are strong and flat out of order accusations towards Marilyn's character. I think it is a good idea for you to sit out until you can figure out how to mix the character of Jesus with your vast head knowledge of the Bible. Marilyn is new. Love and compassion is more important than being right about anything. You owe Marilyn a humble and compassionate apology. I am not telling you to sit out, you voluntered. Correct doctrine is important. But, it can be presented and corrected with a right attitude. Contending for the faith is admirable. But love is our highest calling. That does not mean we have to compromise anything we have been taught. According to your sign off statement, yes, something is missing. Faith works by love. Obviously, it is easier said than done and it is key to having signs following. I do not mean to start anything. I just think some attitudes need to be seriously adjusted among all of us, myself included.

If someone is teaching on a subject they should be able to share what they believe, where it is found in scripture, and they should be able to back it up with several scriptures as confirmation. If someone asks a question there should be no need to get offended, just explain what the Bible teaches on it. Please go back and look at all the posts here from the beginning. If anyone is presenting a doctrine or teaching then they should be able to make it plain and answer the questions. If what is being said is true then there is no need to be alarmed because the Holy Spirit who leads and guides us into all truths will reveal the matter. We all have to be teachable but we have to know what we are being taught to make a decision. That's the nature of the beast, if you cannot prove what your saying and it is not clear in the Bible then its not a valid teaching or doctrine. Then it could be error or worse yet heresay. Think about it, Paul came preaching about the messiah to the Bereans, they took his teaching and searched the scriptures to see if the things Paul was saying was true.

description: Gary, William, Jman, Let`s have a good look at where this discussion started - Gary said - (in the discipling thread) Quote: `When the Lord gave them the design of the temple, it was men who the Lord used to work in the temple, woman had an outer court. Why did not woman come into the temple to serve is some capacity? Because it was never the Lord's Will.` I replied - Quote: `Just a quick note of what I believe re the Temple. it was a structure given by God to show forth the Lord & His ministry. It was given to the nation of Israel who are ordered as you said. However the Body of Christ is of a different order, KingPriests, where there is no `male or female,` differences. To be given a body like Christ`s, & where there is no marriage (in heaven) shows that it is a new body for a new order of beings.` I thought that when Gary said it was `men who the Lord used to work in the temple,` that he was referring to the priests. I didn`t know that other men worked in the temple. Thus I was trying to point out that the priests who worked in the temple were of the Levitical order, temporal & not royal, whereas the Body of Christ are a royal priesthood. We are not like the priests of Baal. (demonic) We are not like the Pharisees. (of your Father the devil, said the Lord) We are not like those who `lord it over` others. (like the Gentile rulers) We are not like the Levitical priesthood which is temporal & not royal. But we are like Christ, in Him, a royal priesthood because he is the Eternal Royal Priest, & the abilities & functions flow from Him as He wills to use us now & eternally - - worshipping & serving now, reaching out to others in the ministry of reconciliation, - worshipping & serving in eternity, - (no eye has seen, no ear has heard.....) I don`t see that as any new doctrine that you are saying I`m trying to teach. Hope that explains it more. Marilyn.

description: Gary, Let`s go on to Jman`s comment at the beginning also - My comment, Quote: `Now Christ being a High Priest shows that there are other priests, (High Priest over other priests) & these would be of the same order – King Priest.` Jman said - Quote: "these would be of the same order" <- This premise is not substantiated. To think that redeemed people will be/are of the order of Melchizedek (king-priest) in God's eyes is a potentially dangerous idea. The "order of Melchizedek" was something unique to Jesus.` There was a man in the Old testament raised up to represent Christ in some small measure as a priest & a king. He was called (as we all know) Priest of the Most High God & King of Salem. But it is just an earthly representation & the writer to the Hebrews enlarges on this to tell us that Christ is the eternal Royal Priest ministering from the heavenly sanctuary, the wonderful riches of His grace & mercy. So take the focus off the representative of Christ`s ministry & put our attention on Christ the Eternal Royal Priest. `looking unto Jesus, the author & finisher of our Faith who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, & has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.` (Heb. 12: 2)Priest & King If we are a royal priesthood as peter says, then please tell me what type of priest are we - Baal, Levitical, Pharisee, lording it over, or a royal priest?

She has made the passage in Gal 3:28 (There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.) to be her rally cry for females being accorded the same privilege as men to be able to teach. Now you of all people should know that this issue alone, even if she had brought up no other topic, was going to raise the eyebrows of all who have been in our circles. Heck, it would cause problems on 80% of Christian forums! Nonetheless, we have given her a platform. But laying aside the female/teacher issue, you know for a fact that if a man had come in and was saying the EXACT SAME THING, the reactions would be EXACTLY the same. No one would pull any punches and reactions would no doubt mirror the reactions toward Marilyn. You have reacted the EXACT SAME WAY toward others when you have perceived doctrinal error, (antisemitism, etc.,) even directing some of it to Marilyn, early on, if I'm remembering it right. I'm not pointing this out to criticize you, I'm only saying that your perspective toward Jman and the others, (me included) should take all of this into consideration before jumping to the conclusion that something unfair is taking place.

description: "Heck, it would cause problems on 80% of Christian forums! Nonetheless, we have given her a platform. You are not suppose to shoot cuss! lol Just trying to keep it light. I admit, this whole thing has gotten me very upset. I hate to see division. We all have personality differences and quirks, but this is waaayyyy over the top for me. Somehow, this has gotten way out of hand and this is rare for OO for things to get this far. Yes, I did go overboard on the Anti-Semitism issue. The issue is beginning to raise it's head more than ever in the world and I was adamant about it. I attacked like a junk yard dog. I felt like it was Ok since it was about "the apple of His eye," but, looking back, my attitude was way off. I don't believe a woman should teach. I believe the Word is very clear about that. Also, the judgment is very harsh for teachers. I don't need any more trouble, so I would run from that office. It gets complicated when PM's go back and forth and then we write on the board. I knew her feelings were hurt before I even approached her to see if she was OK. She was not OK. Marilyn, I feel like I am acting like you are not in the room! I don't mean to do that. I am just trying to explain why I reacted the way I did and I want you to be OK, too. Whether you feel like woman should teach or not is between you, Jesus, and the people on this board if the conversation continues. I don't know if that is a good idea at this point. We all know where everyone stands and maybe we should just let it be. Believe me, it can get a whole lot worse!!! A whooooollleee lot worse! If everyone else is up for it, fine. I am not. I officially bow out. Marilyn, you know I will always be there for you. All of this is between you all now, though. Thank you, William for taking the time to explain. I hope you don't see that as a compliment because Gary does not like it. Soooo......that is how I feel.

description: William, I think we are all weary of this, but I would like to finish by pointing out what I see has happened. Have you heard of people asking questions that whatever way you answer you would be in the wrong? Eg. `Do you still beat your wife?` If you said yes, then you do still beat her. However if you say no, then it implies that you did used to beat your wife. So what about the person who never beat his wife. He couldn`t answer yes or no. He`d have to say `I never did beat my wife.` This is what has happened. Jman accused me of presenting a `new doctrine.` I tell him I am not. But he keeps at it saying I have `crossed a line` because I ran two words together Kingpriest. I said I would separate them. And then again he says `please lay out this doctrine..` Others get involved -William you say I`m presenting an `esoteric doctrine,` & then Gary finds sites on the internet which seems to back up this so-called doctrine. I say it is false teaching & accused of a `snow job.` Further still William you keep asking me for `this doctrine,` (which I said I don`t have.) But you see whatever I say will not match up with the first accusation `new doctrine` I am supposed to be bringing/teaching. The more I try to explain the more people think I am evading the issue. However William you said `If that is all you are saying, why didn`t you say so.` Great some clarity. But what we were saying got lost in the hunt for this so-called `new doctrine.` Then just when everyone`s had enough & tried to understand each other, lessons learnt, then along comes the fire stirrer (Jman) & accuses again calling me `slippery, crafty...` & William you fall into line & say I`m `building a whole new doctrine.` Gillyann insightfully points out Jman`s rude accusations when he said, ` How slippery (slimy), & crafty (suggests manipulation which is witchcraft) my comment was. She said `These are strong & flat out of order accusations towards Marilyn`s character.` I again say I am not presenting a new doctri…

Where did you sit at the building? Who were you close to and who did you fellowship with? In short......WHO ARE YOU?? What was your experience at FA? What has happened since then?

description: Also, *wishing* 34..... What are you "wishing" about and to whom are you "wishing" ? Please tell me the exact number and series of teaching where *wishing* is correct for a follower of Jesus. I have members of my family who are delivered from the occult, by faith, in Jesus Name. They will have a glorious testimony. They did not have the great opportunity, like you did, to attend FA and have access to the teachings of HEF. You have not confirmed your exact presence to me when attending FA, so I will let you know if I think you were really a member of FA or not. My family *wishes* to their pagan Gods of Wicca and to the gods of Lucifer. I walk into their houses and see their alters to the gods they *wish* to. I have to tear those "wishing" alters down every morning and night in prayer, by faith. Just answer the simple questions I have presented to you. I will answer all of them for myself!!! NO problem! You know that Satanists/Luciferians hate his (Hobart E. Freeman) guts for a reason...right??? Tell me why. You are so full of the knowledge of the tapes and teachings and why FA existed. Tell me why. Tell me why, when HEF was attending The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary,(and June and His three daughters were living in Charlestown, Indiana,) the Satanists, in Louisville, Kentucky, (the 2nd largest Satanic church in American) hated his guts. You know where this is referenced in his books and on the tapes, right? List them........list them. I can. So, don't come on OO and act like you have the right to have "attitude." Don't come on OO and act like you are above women/a woman who has/have suffered and fought to stay alive, by faith....alone....without any help....crying out to God every night. When you can roll over, every single night in bed, and don't know if you will be murdered and wake up in heaven or not, maybe I will listen to you. If you have been a faithful follower of OO, you will know what I am talking about. In the meantime....just answer the simple lit…

GWB: Well.....so did I. I was shunned and was the topic of a sermon. I endured a lot of heartache as well. Looks like we have this in common.

I'm so sorry that happened to you. ------------------------ As far as your list of questions, I have chosen anonymity for this very reason we share in common - I have baggage about it from the past.

And a "verse quoter" need not even have been a part of FA - as long as they are accurately quoting the verses. If you want to say I was not part of FA ( I have said I was in a satelite church ) then just assume I am a stranger who knows all about what happened and all about the various doctrines.
