Loyalty!


‘Loyalty.’
a) Proverbs 19:22. Is a desirable attribute.
b) Ruth 3:10. Is good to show to an “in-law” family.
c) 1 Samuel 20:8. Is good to show to a real friend.
d) 1 Samuel 20:42. Has great meaning when it is practised in the Lord’s Name.
e) 2 Chronicles 15:14. To the Lord can be shown in exuberant Praise.
f) Proverbs 3:3. Should always be our attitude.
g) James 1:6 & 8; 4:8. Should not be divided.
(Through this QT I find Loyalty as being very important)

c) Malachi 2:3. Even the descendants of priests who do not listen will suffer.
d) Malachi 2:4. When the Holy Priests realise these Truths the Covenant that the Lord has made with them remains as a reality.
e) Malachi 2:5. The Covenant is Life and Peace given that the Holy Priest might fear the Lord and His Name.
f) Malachi 2:6-7. The Life of the Holy Priest:-
1- The Law of Truth is on his mouth.
2- The Holy Priest does not lie or cheat.
3- The Holy Priest walks with the Lord.
4- The Holy Priest lives a good and righteous life.
5- The Holy Priest turns many people from the life of sin.
6- The Holy Priest speaks words that preserve knowledge of God.
7- People go to the Holy Priest for instruction.
g) Malachi 3:8. Three things that God had against the Holy Priests:-
1- They left God’s paths.
2- They gave instructions that caused many people to stumble into sin.
3- They corrupted the Covenant that God made.
(Through this Second one I can see The Responsibility Of A High Priest is an awesome responsibility)

Chris.
The Holy Priest walks with the Lord. We are, the Bible says, a Royal Priesthood. We are priests of the Lord Jesus. A priest comes before God on behalf of the people and also comes before the people on behalf of God. We should live as a Royal Priesthood.
