Some in the area I was raised in believed this. However the Bible clearly says He is the most certainly the Son now and as Son He is our Great High Priest.
The late R.C. Cavaness used to say we need a High Priest in the Church as bad as we needed a Saviour in the world. I believe it.

Amen. Hebrews clearly teaches this, but Hebrews is heavy meat, so not much studied.
The work on the cross was for salvation, similar to Moses' work in getting Israel out of Egypt. But the work presently occurring in heaven by Christ as High Priest is far beyond that, and similar to JOSHUA to GET US INTO THE MOST HOLY PLACE, spiritually speaking, where we overcome things in life. Most are satisfied with being out of Egypt. And they never overcome much. But the priesthood occurring NOW is intercession intended to see us overcome.
