God Has Called Us to be ROYAL PRIESTS
So as weâve been discovering over the past couple of Saturdays, the idea of being a royal priest is a pretty important one in the Bible. Itâs the idea of someone who stands between God and His creation to work out His will.
Part 1: YOU are a ROYAL Priest!
Part 2:Â MYSTERIOUS Melchizedek: The Priest-King
Part 3:Â Moses and Aaron: Two Very Different Priests
Part 4:Â David of Bethlehem: A Priestly King
Part 5: Jesus is Our Perfect Royal Priest
Part 6:Â God Has Called Us to be ROYAL PRIESTS
It used to be priests and kings in the Old Testament, but Jesus became our perfect royal priest when He died and came back to life to take the punishment for our sins. Now Heâs given all of His followers the job of being royal priests, like the Apostle Peter wrote in 1 Peter 2: 5 and 9 that weâre a chosen people, a royal priesthood.
So what does it mean to be royal priests? Doing things like singing to God, giving up your time and money to help others, and praying for other people to God are all ways to be royal priests.
