A Priest Upon His Throne: Israel's Restored Priesthood in the Kingdom

Posted by Edward R. Cross on June 12, 2026

The Scriptures seem to clash: Hebrews says the priesthood is changed, the prophets say Levi's priesthood is everlasting. Rightly divided, both are true. They unveil Israel's restored kingdom priesthood, Christ the King-Priest after Melchisedec presiding over the sons of Zadok in a rebuilt temple, a glory wholly separate from the Body of Christ.

Grace Greater Than Our Sin

The Christian life has plenty of ups and downs — disappointments, heartbreaks, and failures. Yet one thing never changes: the abiding presence of the Lord Jesus Christ.

In Romans 8, Paul gives us hope even after the struggles of Romans 7:

"For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son…" (Romans 8:29 KJV)

We all fail, but the Lord never abandons us. David proved that — a man after God’s own heart despite his many failures. Because of God’s sure mercies in Christ, we can keep on keeping on.

Even when we believe not, "yet he abideth faithful" (2 Timothy 2:13). God works all things together for good (Romans 8:28). He is never surprised.

The journey continues — grounded in the faithfulness of Christ.
