There are elders and Bishops and deacons, but no priesthood

Hello? A bishop is a priest.

You guys just said a priest is an Elder...

A bishop is an episkopos...Now a priest is an episkopos...And a priest is a presbuteros...And a priest is a hiereus

Do you guys ever listen to yourselves??? Oh, and a priest is an alter theos

Only in Rome :)

The greek word for Bishop means over seerer just as elder does..it had nothing to do with a priesthood

episkopē

1) investigation, inspection, visitation
a) that act by which God looks into and searches out the ways, deeds character, of men, in order to adjudge them their lot accordingly, whether joyous or sad b) oversight
1) overseership, office, charge, the office of an elder
2) the overseer or presiding officers of a Christian church

No priesthood there Judith

4. Malachi 1:11 "For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name {shall be} great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense {shall be} offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name {shall be} great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts."

God is proclaiming a new, clean sacrifice, again among the Gentiles, and clearly universal (in every place). Thus, the Sacrifice of the Cross cannot be intended, since it was in one place only. The Mass fulfills the prophecy.

WHICH ALSO NEED PRIESTS To OFFER!
