Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood
Author: John Bergsma
Publisher: Emmaus Road Publishing
ISBN: 1645850757
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
Is there anything in the New Testament about the need for priests in the Church? Many Protestants would argue no. And if you point out that there is a priesthood in the Old Testament, they are likely to say it was a feature of the Old Covenant that was undone by Christ. How should a Catholic respond? In Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood, biblical scholar John Bergsma convinces readers that Jesus did, in fact, intend for a ministerial priesthood to be a key feature of the New Covenant. Bergsma shows how the priesthood is a major thread holding together the biblical story line—beginning with Adam’s loss of the gift of priesthood in the Fall and the long process of restoring his descendants to a priestly status over the centuries, culminating with Christ. With chapter summaries and discussion questions included, Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood can readily be adapted into a four-part study for personal or small group use.

Priesthood Through the Scriptures

ISBN: 1524549339

Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
How does one obtain the wisdom to discern between the truth and that which is false? Can one look to the institutions of higher learning? Is the station and high achievements of some individuals a proper yardstick? By what measure is the validity and reliability of their work and words measured? Can one feel safe and secure in the established order of what has been generally accepted by the great majority? Truly, the last question one should ask is, Was God so naive as to leave mankind without the means to find out the truth in such a way as to preclude any chance of missing the mark?

Created to Draw Near
Author: Edward T. Welch
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433566419
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
You are a royal priest. That Reality Will Change Your Life Human beings are wired for connection. We long for deep relationships and real intimacy—both of which reflect our fundamental desire to be close to God. But all too often, whether because of our sin or our failures, we imagine that God prefers to keep his distance. In this book, Edward T. Welch shows us the purpose for which we were created: to be brought near to God as a kingdom of priests. He traces the priestly identity throughout the entire Bible, showing us how holiness leads to closeness to God. Through the blood of Jesus, God extends his invitation for all to draw near with open arms. And in his presence, we discover what it means to be truly human: known, unashamed, and wise, full of meaning, purpose, and abundant life.
