Israel’s Priesthood Pictures a Divine Reality
[Part 1/ 4]
====
I have been working on this lately, may be it is helpful
====
So the best revenge, is the truth – but the truth is God, and he is love.
Now I know the Jews have two good friends on each end, three.
One, Jehovah considers Abraham a friend, two.
For his sake, the Jews who can be recovered, will be restored (1000 years) to life, and Jesus made that possible, by perfection and faith, but both by faith, have saved the Jews and all nations who can become faithful individually as persons – but the whole family has opportunity.
So, in that next “earth”, as Abraham will be a massive foundation on earth, and all the prophets, in the reward phase, Rev11:18, there is living constant seniority in this whole story.
Now let them take it up with Abraham. He for sure is going to take it up with them, but the truth is the best reference with love and mercy, the truth of God as in Jesus his Christ.
===
So think about it, yes some were and are seed of Satan (John8:44; Rev2:9) that is systemic since Cain in some, they are of no matter, but those rulers who were that, and Pharisees, as many as who were, misled their own people.
As Jesus said, those that handed him over to the nations, have more sin than Pilate.
So also for David’s sake, another friend to the Jews, many Jews will have that recovery from the grave, Rom11:15, though Paul asked it as a question, stating the lump is holy.
So it should be humbling and magnificent for those of them, and all, with faith, to actually see what Jesus has truly become. It in itself is awesome “vengeance”, because by love he conquered them, the ultimate vengeance with a greater purpose – they and all will have to admit, that being bettered us all, he truly won through God’s power and his faith.
That is the best way in Jehovah’s eyes, they must see who they rejected in those recoverable, and in the opportunity to become perfect like him, it is of great advantage that God works like this. It is definitely not human thinking. His conquest, is superior love.
But now about Paul and Rom11:15.
Well that holy “lump” is NOT the Jews as a nation, but the firstfruits he was talking about, in “regeneration time” (Matt19:28), the future is holy, and in faith he spoke the root is that as well, Jesus foremost, the branches are to. That “lump” is Jesus “doe” that will become available to them, and all.
Obviously that was a statement of faith:
(Romans 11:13-16) Now I speak to YOU who are people of the nations. Forasmuch as I am, in reality, an apostle to the nations, I glorify my ministry,
14 if I may by any means incite [those who are] my own flesh to jealousy and save some from among them.
15 For if the casting of them away means reconciliation for the world, what will the receiving of them mean but life from the dead?
16 Further, if the [part taken as] firstfruits is holy, the lump is also; and if the root is holy, the branches are also.
[Part 2/ 4]
In the resurrection, since Jesus is a Jew, but also Last Adam, then all nations, but also the Jews remembered, can partake of that “lump” because the Israel of God also partook, in symbol of Jesus body, but in his spirit perfection, as Last Adam became a “life giving spirit” his pattern of perfection they already share in that realm, he presented himself as something special, Adam was out of earth, he was out of heaven, “bread of heaven” sinless, and that spirit-begotten event, whatever it is in deep reality to Jehovah, is also in the 144000:
(1 John 3:9) Everyone who has been born from God does not carry on sin, because His reproductive seed remains in such one, and he cannot practice sin, because he has been born from God.
(1 Peter 1:23) For YOU have been given a new birth, not by corruptible, but by incorruptible [reproductive] seed, through the word of the living and enduring God.
====
So he was changed from perfect flesh, to perfect spirit, so will the 144000, and he gave that blood and body to Jehovah.
Now I know sometimes people have thought the body just up and vanished, with the blood, and it did, but it “vanished” with the sacrifice, it is very real to Jehovah because the perfection in it as Last Adam, Atonement, and Passover can be applied in the 1000 year reign as a complete sacrifice.
Though the atonement body of the animal sacrifices as pattern, was disposed of (outside the camp), that is just the blood, as is the Passover, but the passover was the one Jesus was, it foreshadowed him, no bone was broken, it is applied, that one was and is “eaten”, not disposed of, except uneaten left-overs.
The blood in that sacrifice, is also the ‘passing over’ of the angels of destruction at GT and, the atonement has blood too, so they must tie together for different purpose in a hierarchy (shown later).
The “body” as bread, and the wine as blood, is partaken of by the 144000 in symbol, that like Jesus in reality in heaven, they don’t need to apply to themselves, the blood got them their in faith, their body is discarded, but the inherit a new one, and that “seed” in these, from the begotten power, becomes the reality.
====
Now I’m not going to speculate here I’m going to lay out some interesting things, but not tie them together because maybe I missed it over the years, as some things come out once or twice, and this is just fascinating details, the basic truth saves, this is just to become common knowledge for the next system as it progresses in knowledge and these things too, as all the great patterns of Jehovah in his bible are completely explained, because they will come out in all the detail, and tie into the “new scrolls”.
But anyways:
So as we know the 12 tribes that stood at the gate (on Atonement Day), pictured also in Matt19:28:
*** w08 1/15 p. 30 Highlights From the Book of Matthew ***
19:28 – What is represented by “the twelve tribes of Israel” that will be judged? They do not represent the 12 tribes of spiritual Israel. (Gal. 6:16; Rev. 7:4-8) The apostles to whom Jesus was speaking were going to be part of spiritual Israel, not judges of its members. Jesus made ‘a covenant with them for a kingdom,’ and they were to be ‘a kingdom and priests to God.’ (Luke 22:28-30; Rev. 5:10) Those of spiritual Israel are to “judge the world.” (1 Cor. 6:2) Hence, “the twelve tribes of Israel,” whom those on the heavenly thrones judge, evidently represent the world of mankind who are outside that royal, priestly class, as pictured by the 12 tribes on Atonement Day.—Lev., chap. 16.
[Part 3/ 4]
Well we know we do have 12 tribes in the 144000. And now we see that Eternal Father for the earthlings is also a Jew from the 12 Tribes, but perfect as Last Adam, then one 12 tribe, the heaven one, will be applied to the yet imperfect 12 tribes, the earth one.
So in human family of all nations, tribes and tongues, the “the world of mankind who are outside that royal, priestly class” must by faith, but God’s will, leave death behind.
(Abraham: father if many nations, father of all those having faith, heir of a world)
Since death is sin, and sin resides, dwells in (Rom6-7), Adam’s “bread” by leaven, it is impossible to live even 1 day (1000 years), or 1 day (24 hrs) sinless – it’s imbibed – and we add to it beyond just “inherited sin”.
So that has to be removed to actually reach human perfection, and we see the pattern is Jesus Christ and his priesthood. These partook of the “bread of heaven”, these are born like him to heaven, children of God, these are then “bakers” so to speak, of the “bread of heaven”, these have it in them – hence partook.
(But mankind, can become the real thing physically, perfect like the real bread, Jesus was physically)
Look at these two sacrifices (Passover first, Atonement second)
Moses who instituted the first Passover by God’s direction, was of Levi (great-grandson), yet this was not a typical Levitical priestly ceremony, as they were not in covenant yet, they (Levites) were traded for the first born spared in Egypt (Num3:11-16).
Though seen as a “sacrifice to Jehovah” which was eaten, any uneaten burned, it was a memorial (after that first event), as Jesus and the 11 were at that “memorial” as it transitioned to the greater meaning, and greater Lamb.
Interesting it provided the salvation at that time, to even bring in the “old covenant” then as even possible, and the new covenant that led to. That Lamb, opened the way to the Levitical priesthood before it was established, just as Jesus did before the “new covenant” priesthood becomes full reality.
Interesting too, the Israelites were baptized before entering that covenant, by the sea and cloud, after the Passover.
[Part 4/ 4]
Interesting that after that, the Atonement series begins in it’s two parts as one overall atonement (bull and goats), yet with Jesus blood it offered once for all time (and body), a body part offered outside the “camp”, like the disposed of Atonement sacrificial body, yet we know Jesus is also the Passover (1Cor5:7) – to be partaken of in the body.
But in Zechariah, the Festival of Booths is shown as an international “new earth” event in the 1000 years, and that was in Israel after Atonement, yearly.
Not saying the blood element is constantly applied, as in that now done away with Atonement Day, year after year, since it is “once for all time”, but that this constant festival may event apply to that “shepherded to waters of life”, and the monthly “leaves of the trees” for the curing of the nations, “trees” watered by that river, the “ingathering” is like Christ gathering all things as he did in heaven, now on earth, as Paul said, “receiving them again” (Rom11:15)
So this will be made real in God’s own time, process and way, and the “all things made new” will include the foremost feature of that “regeneration” of Matt 19:28, making the actual human new.
Jesus new mind, heart, eyes, body, everything, and since that “Jew” pattern, is applied to that Last Adam, then the entire human family coming into this in the pattern of the 12 heavenly tribes, can figuratively also reflect that 12, maybe in literal ways we do not understand yet.
So many former Jews of that time in human history, will be seeing some amazing stuff. LOL
Abel has much to catch up on, he will wake up and go, what happened? And someone will have to tell him all about it, that is the ultimate bible study, LOL.

Like to contribute something …
God made a covenant with both house of Israel and the house of Jacob for a new covenant.
Jesus made a covenant with his Apostles , the ones who stuck by him in his trials.. “that they may drink at his table in Jesus Kingdom, and to judge the twelve tribes of Israel”…
At no time in that promise were they told they will judge anyone else…and they had to be in the Kingdom with Jesus to judge the TRIBES OF ISRAEL ..so the promise was future not present..
As pointed out somewhere in that post, though not in enough detail possibly, is the pattern from Atonement day in Israel, the 12 tribes were not the priestly class, as Revelation 7 also diverges from the original 12 tribes, so they are a priesthood with special meaning as regards Christ’s body, which has great Last Adamic significance, because earthlings can never achieve sinlessness in Adam’s body, in anyway, so a new one is transitioned into, thus Jesus Christ will truly be called Eternal Father because he fathers no one in heaven, all their are his brothers with one Father Jehovah.
So those “12 tribes”, picturing Adamic humanity, are judged at the ReGenesis, or re-creation (regeneration) of Matt19:28, but since the heavenly 12 tribes are not subject to “second death”, because they have conquered they are incorruptible, hence immortal, because NOTHING in heaven, heavens or earth, like Jesus Christ can break their integrity, they have inherited completely Jesus stalwart unbreakable being at their actual re-birth into heaven.
But as pointed out, Jesus will be applying that perfect body, as he already has the blood “once for all time”, through his Bride, and sinlessness will become complete, at which time of course no more power of forgiveness in the blood is needed, or available.
This is why Satan tempts earth in this period, because all perfect ones must also “learn obedience” and “second death” is the penalty to those earthlings not conquering.
Then the “last enemy” and Satan/demons and any unfaithful, for they are all interconnected, are “brought to nothing; 1Cor15:26; Heb2:14, so even hell/hades can also be destroyed, since it pictured Adamic sin not “second death” but the first Adamic death.
So Jesus goes back to Adam, by virtue of the covenant for a kingdom he made with God, a different covenant all together than the new covenant he makes with the “Israel of God” the first members of which sprung from fleshly Israel by old covenant, that they by faith realized Jesus had assumed control of, by killing it as a sacrifice within himself, thereby God conferred all rights to that old covenant to the Jew Jesus Christ.
But he also scooped up the blessing right to the Abrahamic covenant, which is to “all the nations of the earth”, and “the families of the ground”, meaning earthlings, nothing heavenly about that covenant, other than it led to Jesus Christ, and the new covenant, which alone opens up heaven to these who “stuck to me in my trials”, and they still do in that class.
The point being, “the Kingdom of the World” is an earthly symbol of the Adamic kingdom, Jesus ALSO scoops up those rights as Last Adam, and…
And “all those with faith” can become Abraham’s seed, for Abraham is “father of all those having faith”, and “father of many nations” and “heir of a world”, so not by race, but by faith, are human beings part of the “12 tribes” which will spring from Abraham in the re-creation, as well as those taken as firstfruits.
Jesus is Last Adam, so that “Jew” by that truth also has the “seed” of Abraham in himself, so even Abel and Abraham can now be restored, in fact all humankind, into that meaning of the 12 tribes, the earthly significance, and they will related to the 12 tribes in heaven, because that is where the “bread from heaven” is applied from, the priesthood.
====
I say shamlessly because you fell for such WT trickery, yet you can’t explain it using biblical terms.Your “book” studies told you that 99.9% of JW were not justified as righteous in the eyes of God. Thats why 99.9% of you were not allowed to partake of the Lord’s Supper.
The “new covenant” is a legality:
(Hebrews 6:16) legal guarantee to them.
(Hebrews 9:10) . . .They were legal requirements pertaining to the flesh and were imposed until the appointed time to set things straight.
(Hebrews 8:6) . . .But now [Jesus] has obtained a more excellent public service, so that he is also the mediator of a correspondingly better covenant, which has been legally established upon better promises.
====
So to make a long story short, even the legalities of the Abrahamic covenant, and the Mosaic covenant, are now in out Lawyer, Jesus Christ – by faith, not a code of condemnation.
But that is for a legal class, who unlike Abraham, who has an earthly covenant for “the families of the ground” Gen12; and the “nations of the earth”; Gen22, and provided the heavenly seed’d lineage, he himself is not in a legally binding heavenly covenant, though it leads to it, the blessing will be provided by means of Abraham’s “seed” who is Jesus Christ.
Since Abraham is “father of all those with faith”, and “father of many nations”, and “heir of a world” the legality of Jew racial supremacy is null and void, it is by faith now, not some fallen earthly tribe, that the legal heirs of the heavenly promise are collected into a faith in this promise.
See that?
In one fell swoop, Jesus Christ’s legal victory, that is attaining as a Jew, the rights to both these covenants, and David’s too boot, he put down all the apostate Jew claims to some rights in which the gentiles also have the same right, access by faith, not law, but faith is required.
he has also secured the power of the promised blessing, from the curse of the Jews, who sealed that curse at his death, and even requested that curse before Pilate as he washed his hands of Jesus blood, they retain greater sin than even Pilate, to this day.
====
So the 144000 are in a covenant. the emblems of that perfect covenant are bread and wine, they HAVE NO FORGIVENESS IN THEMSELVES, they are NOT meant to become an idol, which the churches have turned them into, as suckers bait.
Instead, the apostles, the 11, partook. That they are but symbols is given by the fact JESUS HAD NOT OFFERED SACRIFICE YET, there was yet NO FORGIVENESS OF SINS UNTIL BLOOD THAT SEALED THAT COVENANT WAS SPILLED.
So why?
Because the Abrahamic blessing will remove the curse upon Adam’s “ground”:
(Genesis 3:17) . . .And to Adam he said: “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and took to eating from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground on your account. . . .
that ground is much more than the dirt under Adam’s feet, it is the dust within his body, that he handed into the human race, thereby condemning it to eternal death, like the one he died, and all die, inherited Adamic sin and death.
So that is the reality of the human predicament. Jesus though, first things first, has become Last Adam. He has done that by blood AND body sacrifice.
Since hell-fire is irrelevant in the truth, this blood and body is a perfect replacement for Adam’s leavened bread, the dead father’s body of all mankind, but it continues in human beings, and by Abraham’s covenant to humanity, that is earthlings, a blessing is now a true possiblity:
(Genesis 22:15-18) . . .And Jehovah’s angel proceeded to call to Abraham the second time out of the heavens 16 and to say: “‘By myself I do swear,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘that by reason of the fact that you have done this thing and you have not withheld your son, your only one, 17 I shall surely bless you and I shall surely multiply your seed like the stars of the heavens and like the grains of sand that are on the seashore; and your seed will take possession of the gate of his enemies. 18 And by means of your seed all nations of the earth will certainly bless themselves due to the fact that you have listened to my voice.’”
That “blessing” Jesus has secured rights to be able to give to all humans, as that curse is removed, the blessing is secured, the curse is death, the cause is sin, and we know from the scriptures, death, the result of sin, thereby sin, MUST be removed from the human system:
(Hebrews 2:14-16) . . .Therefore, since the “young children” are sharers of blood and flesh, he also similarly partook of the same things, that through his death he might bring to nothing the one having the means to cause death, that is, the Devil; 15 and [that] he might emancipate all those who for fear of death were subject to slavery all through their lives. 16 For he is really not assisting angels at all, but he is assisting Abraham’s seed.
Paul says it right there, Jesus is assisting Abraham’s seed comprehensively.
(1 Corinthians 15:26) As the last enemy, death is to be brought to nothing.
===
Now death is a “last enemy”, so it is at the end of the 1000 years in which it is removed.
If that was heavenly, the “death” would be removed instantly, for the first resurrection’s members are DEATH FREE IN ALL RESPECTS:
(Revelation 20:6) . . .Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and will rule as kings with him for the thousand years.
Priests for whom? Priests are for intermediary legalities for sinners and God.
(Revelation 7:17) . . .because the Lamb, who is in the midst of the throne, will shepherd them, and will guide them to fountains of waters of life. And God will wipe out every tear from their eyes.”
Those waters of life, are the source of sinless happiness on earth, not in heaven, for they are perfect incorruptible spirits – wiping tears away means death is being wiped out of existence (on earth, the ONLY place death and sin exist systemically):
(Revelation 21:3-4) . . .With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
That “water” is the blessing’s means of restoring sinlessness, hence no curse, because no sin to cause death!:
(Revelation 22:1-3) . . .And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of its broad way. And on this side of the river and on that side [there were] trees of life producing twelve crops of fruit, yielding their fruits each month. And the leaves of the trees [were] for the curing of the nations. 3 And no more will there be any curse. . . .
=====
That is why the 144000 alone partake, the partaking is them intaking Jesus perfect body, NOT for themselves, for the will be spirit bodies, but to apply to mankind as Jesus priesthood, over the 1000 years:
(Revelation 5:9-10) . . .you bought persons for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, 10 and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.”
What use are priests over the earth, if everyone else is in hell?
No use at all, so hell will be emptied, and earth will be filled, with these persons bought out of Adamic death:
(Revelation 20:13-14) . . .And the sea gave up those dead in it, and death and Hades gave up those dead in them, and they were judged individually according to their deeds. 14 And death and Ha′des were hurled into the lake of fire.
No sin, hence no death, hence no need for hell or any mythical hell-fire either!
Then Satan too is destroyed:
(Revelation 20:7-10) . . .Now as soon as the thousand years have been ended, Satan will be let loose out of his prison, 8 and he will go out to mislead…And the Devil who was misleading them was hurled into the lake of fire and sulphur.
So Hebrews 2:14 is fulfilled:
“that through his death he might bring to nothing the one having the means to cause death, that is, the Devil…”
as well as 1Cor15:26, the “last enemy”, death, is also destroyed.
====
So the Jehovah’s witnesses now of all earthly creation back to Abel, have the opportunity to actually become that “bread sent down from heaven”, the sinless, unleavened bread of Jesus Christ as earthling perfected Last Adam. No way can Adam remian on earth, even through his genetic he passed on into humanity, that too, MUST be removed in order to attain true sinlessness, the POWER in Jesus Christ’s perfection, his body, and the blood which provided the forgiveness, LEGAL access from God’s acceptance of ALL the terms in the covenants Jesus assumed rights to the benefits thereof, and that blood provided the precious time, 1000 years, for earthlings to assume this first great, non-Adamic, but Last Adamic opportunity to LIVE FOREVER for real, not by time bought by a sacrifice which diminished to nothing, as sinlessness was reached – no need for sacrificial covering of a sinless human being.
After that point is reached, no sacrifice will be available, earhling can stand by their own integrity to their God Jehovah, as Adam did not and died, and Jesus Christ succeeded and secured life and all the rewords of the Father.
That is when Satan, is released. So OBEDIENCE TO GOD, EQUALS EVERLASTING LIFE, GOD’S WILL ON EARTH, as in heaven, is completed:
(1 John 2:17) he that does the will of God remains forever.
====
So the “other sheep” as all earthlings can become by faith and faithfulness, need not bother with emblems, merely symbols of a perfection they can ACTUALLY become, rather than partake of that “bread”, they can actually become that bread, children of Last Adam Jesus Christ, for all in heaven are his brothers, the earthlings by the rights he assumed from Adam, become Jesus Christ’s own children, hence Eternal father is what Jesus will be called, in completion of this removal to the full, of Adam from humanity.
