Mummified Priests
"You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ" (1 Peter 2:5)
Wasting away, not relationship with God's Son. Heat of the world, not living water. Mummification begun
Meat of the scripture removed, an empty shell remains Arms crossed, closed in sarcophagus of sin, no more light of day
Testament of Old; God ordained the priests. Because mans relationship with Him was breached A go-between for sinful man and creator. Animal sacrifices; a shadow of what would be more Ultimate sacrifice; Gods own Son. Death and pierced hands Now Covenant destroys the need for a priestly man.
Mummified Priest Clinging to useless tradition causing spiritual malnutrition Mummified Priest Praying with much repetition does not change decaying condition Mummified Priest
The law was fulfilled by Christ's death and resurrection The veil of the temple was torn to end the separation
God has invited us to come to him through Jesus Perfected in perfect blood is how He sees us
So what are we saying when we pray through saints or Mary? "Jesus your blood's not good enough to purify me." And What are we saying when we go to a priest instead of Him? "Say your 'Hail Mary's', His bloods not enough to banish sin" The priesthood has been unnaturally preserved. It's gut removed by the New Covenant Faking life is absurd
The mummified priest with the ludicrous smile He's been dead for a long, long while. The mummified priest sure is dressed really great his funeral was four hundred years ago, he's a little late The mummified priest hanging on the wall Eventually the withered body will fall. The mummified priest is a symbol of Christ's gift ignored On display for all to see; this corps hanging on a cord

The Catholic church is an ancient machine The priesthood corrupted throughout history Rusted gears and broken pistons hidden under a surface that glistens Grinding slowly to a halt Who is to blame for it's faults? Power given not to individuals but to the priest to save their souls For centuries this vehicle dept the church alive But now it is time for the priesthood to die The controls must be handed over quick To the High Priest in the order of Melchizedek Heed these words you who may be mummified: Tradition cannot keep you alive.
