The ordained
Exodus 29:1~9 And put headbands on them. Then tie sashes on Aaron and his sons. The priesthood is theirs by a lasting ordinance. In this way you shall ordain Aaron and his sons.(9)

Science continues to endlessly develop. It may seem that people are living abundantly, but as time passes, there is an epidemic. It is an epidemic of helplessness, depression and mental illnesses. The Bible illuminates this problem directly. Post Genesis 3, Satan is even now attempting to break down the individual, family and culture. But Jesus solved this problem completely. How was this problem solved before Jesus personally came to earth? What is the spiritual commission we must know today?
1. The God-given solution
Only Christ is capable of solving the original problem of Genesis 3. God has given the blessing of high priesthood to His chosen people. Moses understood accurately who the offspring of the woman in Genesis 3:15 and the blood of the lamb in Exodus 3:18 signified. This covenant was relayed to Aaron and future priests. Those who held on to this covenant were victorious. The world may not comprehend, but the Bible explains explicitly the way for man to meet God.
2. The ordained evangelist
All of mankind’s problems stem from having left God in the first place. But Jesus Christ solved all of these problems upon the cross. When we believe in this truth salvation and restoration will arise. These works took place in Mark’s upper room during the days of the Early Church and is taking place even now to those who hold to the Gospel. At this point, after He resurrected, for 40 days Jesus preached about the impending kingdom of God. He told us to relay the kingdom of God. Evangelists have been ordained for this purpose. He has given us the position of a priest to believe in the blood of the lamb and relay and spread word of the kingdom of God. We are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and a people belonging to God (1 Peters 2:9).These blessings could be best enjoyed through worship. He has decreed us to give offerings and sacrifice for this express purpose. We must enjoy and relay the fact that Jesus is the only way, truth and life.
