Eric serves as a called and confirmed Chief Apostle in the restored government of God. He is the founder of s8w Ministries, and it is through his stewardship that God ushered in a new season of restoration for all believers who desire to walk in the fulness of Christ.  View my profile.

Now that God has restored the priesthood of Jesus Christ, which is the royal priesthood to which we are all called, you will hear ministers in the false religious system redirect the priesthood from Jesus’ covenant to a future promise of a “Zadok” priesthood.

For example, Curt Landry says that God “…is raising up a personal priesthood and releasing a Zadok anointing upon a remnant in this season. This anointing WILL BE part of an end-time revival.”

We can discern that Landry is not speaking from his present experience when he says that this anointing “will be” part of an end-time revival. Future tense language is a common deception practice used among ministers to keep the body of Christ in bondage. Another example is where he says that “What was conceived in the spirit nine months ago is ABOUT TO BE (future tense) birthed.”

Landry says that when this is “birthed” this will happen:

  • [the anointing will] Teach the difference between the holy and the profane.
  • [you will] Discern between the clean and the unclean.

To say that discernment is coming means that you cannot presently discern between the holy and profane, between the clean and the unclean, which is to say that you don’t know what pleases God, nor how to join yourself to Him.

All of God’s saints receive the foundation when they enter into covenant with Him. The foundation of truth is set in their hearts and they are able to discern. It’s that simple.

Saying that discernment is YET to come, Landry is saying that the foundation of truth has not been set in his heart. He cannot, at this present time, separate the kingdoms, nor separate the covenants, nor teach about the present priesthood of Jesus Christ.

  • Instead of the present priesthood, he’s projecting for the future, which does not require any responsibility now. He’s fishing in a dry pond.

Landry is speaking of a Hagar pregnancy. The son (philosophy) that is born will be cast out as Hagar was cast out, to separate the child born after nature from the child of promise.

Galatians 4:22-24

22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.

24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar [Hagar].

The son (philosophy) that is born will be cast out as Hagar was cast out, to separate the child born after nature from the child of promise.

The Melchizedek Priesthood

Landry: “If you are called to be a Zadok priest, this summer is a time to prepare for the priesthood side of your life to grow.”

Apostle Eric: The Zadok priesthood is not according to Jesus Christ.

Let’s be clear:

  • The Zadok priesthood is according to Moses.
  • The Melchisedec priesthood is according to Jesus Christ.

Psalm 110:4
The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

The Melchizedek priesthood is a heavenly priesthood, which is why it is according to Jesus Christ, even as Apostle Paul also instructed,

Hebrews 7:12-17
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

The priesthood calling that God placed upon all believers is not isolated from the covenant of Jesus Christ, it is the purpose and function of Jesus’ covenant. If you have no divine priesthood, your faith is dead because it is without representation before the throne of God. It is God’s plan for us to reciprocate the likeness of Christ so that He can increase us in His virtue. This is the present work that Jesus oversees in us.

All those who are called of God into covenant must receive the truth of Jesus to transition from darkness to light. All must step through the door of Jesus Christ and partake of Him – His holiness – His righteousness – His grace – His justification. That is His priesthood that we presently share in. So then, all who are called into Christ are chosen for the priesthood of Jesus Christ. As Apostle Peter states,

1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Landry offers a lopsided truth by saying that “you can prepare for the priesthood side of your life to grow” – as if there is some other side.

  • If you want to talk about how God develops the likeness of Christ in you… that’s tied to the present activity of your priesthood.
  •  If you want to talk about prophecy and how to prophesy according to Christ… that’s tied to the present activity of your priesthood.
  •  If you want to talk about discernment and separation… that also is tied to being presently active in the priesthood of Jesus Christ.

God has no plan other than the regeneration of your soul, to be actively involved in your daily growth cycle, because that’s how He’s developing the fruit of Christ in you, which He is eagerly anticipating to receive at the rapture. He is going to receive the fullness of Christ and nothing less because that’s what He gave.

There are not many sides of your faith even as there are not many sides to truth. There is only one truth and He is Jesus, the one standard of our faith. We are all called to reciprocate Him by offering spiritual sacrifices of prophecy to God.

There is nothing more personal to God than the development of the likeness of Christ in your soul. This is God’s Intelligent Design for Christ-Centered Spiritual Transformation.

Because fruit bearing is a requirement to return to God, the priesthood is a requirement for all believers to grow in His grace. Your separation and cleansing begin when you begin to function in your priesthood. When we walk in the fulness of Christ according to His truth, we glorify God by using all things that proceed from Him in the fellowship of light. Our reciprocation with God can only come full cycle daily in our priesthood. There is no other way.

The Judeo-Christian doctrines mix covenants and build on the wrong dispensation, and thus trouble the church (Galatians 1:7).
