Well Peter's writings are considered tribulational by most dispensationalists. we may and so did others offer up spiritual sacrifices that were not priests at all. they application is there but no support from Paul means that it just not a Doctrine. So it will have spiritual application and personal application.

The Doctrine would be "that we are called Priests" and we as the body are never called that. but we are for sure part of the Body of the Great High Priest, and Author of Eternal Salvation.

concerning the resurrection of the martyred saints in Rev 20 they are said to be, "they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." but these ones priesthood is only for 1,000. the cross reference for them is Rev 1:6, 5:10 for they the martyred saints are the slain souls under the altar awaiting the end and justice that are made kings and priests unto God.

all references from the book of Romans to Revelation place the term priest from Heb-Revelation only. Paul never refers to us being Priest or having an earthly reign. but Israel does and will have those things
