They shall join you and keep guard over the tent of meeting for all the service of the tent, and no outsider shall come near you.
Numbers 18:4
A gentile can be a sojourner in Israel, a citizen in all but inheritance in the land, and eventually be adopted into one of the tribes and inherit land along with the native born. But a gentile convert can never become a Levite, let alone a Levitical priest. God's covenant with Aaron is open only to the physical descendants of Aaron. Anyone trying to usurp that priestly role at the altar or any of the other holy articles of the Tabernacle or Temple was to be killed.

Why re-post this now, today?
No reason.
No reason at all.

All of Levi, not just the priests, was responsible for the functioning and holiness of the Tabernacle. The Aaronic priests (the Kohanim) aren't allowed to cut the rest of Levi out of the Tabernacle service. God's anointing isn't subject to approval by anyone. No mortal can deny or diminish it. The Aaronic priesthood can't be earned, bought, or bestowed by men. Only the Kohanim may be priests and only the sons of Levi may serve in their support role. The punishment for pretending to be a genetic son of Aaron in the Temple is death.
The Kohanim were to oversee the Levites, but were also accountable to them. This is a good pattern for congregational leadership. Bishop oversees elders, but is accountable to them.
