Serving Today – The Priesthood of all Believers (1) We are all Priests; Poverty and Prosperity (18) Conclusion

A brief series on the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers.
What does this mean for us as individuals, and how does it affect the life of the local church?

‘Every believer is equal in the sight of God. Each one has the privilege of direct access to him through the Lord Jesus Christ. They don’t need any earthly minister to mediate between them and God or obtain his grace for them’

‘Don’t get distracted onto a gospel that says Jesus came not just to bring us salvation from sin, but to offer us salvation from sickness, poverty and all earthly suffering. Such a gospel reduces our relationship with God, fails to identify our greatest need, it empties the gospel of its wonderful good news and it robs God of his glory.’
