1 Peter says we are a royal priesthood, meaning we are kings and priests at the same time. To understand the authority of our royal priesthood, we need to know what the “priesthood” in the Old Testament was in the first place.

Thanks for sharing.
My perspective and belief as well.

Most excellent presentation, to the point, very appropriate selected graphics for the visual aid, most beneficial for young and old.
Your time and effort is noted, thanks again.

Glory to God,

I'm not commenting on the link--just the subject of the "royal priesthood." What makes us a "royal priesthood" is the fact Christ was a different kind of priest--he was a "royal priest." What he did for us in forgiving our sins was due to his authority as king.

We belong to his priesthood because we share the testimony of what he did. It's a great privilege, and the message does need to get out.

Christians are the children of God, so having the King of the Universe as father must make us royalty too..:)
