A Holy and Royal Priesthood
1 Peter 2: 5, 9

 

Christ our High Priest has not only made believers a “holy priesthood” but Christ our King has also made us a “royal priesthood.”  (1 Peter 2: 9; Revelation 1: 6; 5: 10.)  What is the significance of that? As royalty we have free access to his throne of grace and as holy priests we are accepted in the holiest of all (Hebrews 4: 16; 10: 19-22.)
