Thus, I consider the Eastern Orthodox, and Anglican Catholic priests in the apostolic succession to be properly ordained priests from whom the sacraments Jesus and the Apostles instituted can be properly obtained.

I can find no Scripture that shows any Apostle having ordained or otherwise instituted a priesthood. The closest I've seen is Hebrews, where earthly priestly classes are put to rest forever!

"I can find no Scripture that shows any Apostle having ordained or otherwise instituted a priesthood."

Paul's letter to Timothy describes the process in lively detail. Look there.
