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 may also be glorified together.` (Rom. 8: 17)

`For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; ....` (1 John 5: 4)



`Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ`s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.` (2 Cor. 12: 9 & 10)


`But what things were gain to me these I have counted loss for Christ. ...& be found in Him, ....that I may know Him & the power of His resurrection, & the fellowship of His sufferings...if I ...may attain to the resurrection of the dead. Not that I have already attained .....but reaching forward ... I press towards the goal of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.....For our citizenship is in heaven,....` (Phil. 3: 7 – 20)

`God.. has begotten us to a living hope ....to an inheritance incorruptible & undefiled ... reserved in heaven for you.` (1 Peter 1: 3 & 4)


With Christ`s resurrection life within we are sons of God. And as sons we come into an inheritance with Christ. What is that inheritance? - to be like Him & to have responsibility & authority (under Christ) as a king & a priest.


`to those who are called according to His purpose......he also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son.....first born among many brethren.` (Rom. 8: 28 & 29)

`To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne....` (Rev. 3: 21)

`He shall sit & rule on His throne; So He shall be a priest on His throne,....` (Zech. 6: 13)


`Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood...what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, & not be called according to the order of Aaron.` (Heb. 7: 11)

`...Jesus, having become high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.` (Heb. 6: 20)


Summing up –

We are new creations (beings) in Christ, sons of God & joint heirs with Christ as Kings & Priests of His order. This order is the order of Melchizedek (King & a Priest) which is Royal, eternal & includes women. The `old` order, the `Aaronic priesthood was not Royal, only temporary & only for men.



New Order of Priests, (new creations, beings)
New Order of .....beings.


Marilyn.
