The Convert Who Wanted to be High Priest
"Any non-priest who participates [in the holy service] shall die" (Num. 3:10).
Even David, king of Israel, was not allowed to serve in the holy Temple, as he was not a descendant of Aaron the kohen.
Prophets didn't have to be a Levite. Yeshua was of the Melchizedek order.Consider that Christ IS the High Priest though, which supports me, in that Elijah was a Levite:
Hebrews 9:11
But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
How have you determined that I am not a MJ? I will gladly refrain from speaking on these matters here if it is against the rules to discuss the relevance of Jewish teaching and tradition as it relates to a messiah.
I think both of you need to review the CF rules. Neither of you are MJ, why are you debating among yourselves here? This should be taken to Gen. Theo. or Unorthodox Thoe.

In order to debate, you are supposed to have the MJ icon. That's for sure.
Just being a Levite doesn't equate to being a priest. The priesthood came from the line of Aaron within the Levite tribe. One specific line of peoples.
Dave...with respect, I ask that you don't do the same thing here as you did in MySpaz. This is a very different place where we are discussing Messianic Judaism as both Jews and Gentiles who become Messianic. Nothing more. This is not a Christian forum but I'd bet there are plenty who have the same passionate feelings you do in The Christian forum. Try out those forums and see what you think.The forum says this is for gentiles and MJ's...
Right?
That is true.
The Kohans are the priests before God forever.
They are the sons of Aaron.
We read inthe Gentile Bible that Elizabeth, cousin to Mary, was married to a Kohan, Zechariah.
Since Elizabeth and Mary were cousins, they were both daughters of Kohans since intermarriage was forbidden the Kohans.

In what way is he being dishonest? Misunderstanding, maybe, but dishonest? How?
I know this but I also know "Cupid Dave." He is extremely passionate about debate and gets a bit extreme sometimes. I love him anyway.We believe in Yeshua Messiah. We do not follow traditional church teachings but we are of the Christian faith. But we also follow Torah in the same sense that Yeshua followed and taught and as his disciples walked and taught.
Please explain the 1 Corinthians 11 section that deals with Communion aka Eucharist, Mass, the Lord's Supper, the Last Supper etc. I find your description that it is a "pagan ritual that in later years took on a 'chirstian garb (sic)'" quite offensive.
I would question the translation.. a good Jew, Paul would never call it communion, that is a roman religious term, not Jewish.
Yeshua would never do something outside of Judaism because He is the Jewish Messiah. If Yeshua performed a roman religious ritual, his disciples would have fled the room in a heart beat.
Everything that happened at the Passover seder was within keeping with customs and Yeshua elaborated as a good Rabbi does.
