What does it mean that we are priests to God?

Answered in 1 source

Every believer is considered a priest to God, called to serve Him and spread His glory.

Every believer is called a priest before God as indicated in Revelation 1:6, which states that He has made us kings and priests to God. This priesthood reflects our role in mediating between God and humanity, serving Him, and proclaiming the gospel. The concept of being a priest emphasizes that we do not rely on human leaders but can approach God directly through Christ. Our priesthood is a gift rooted in Christ's righteousness, allowing us to present our lives as living sacrifices, as stated in Romans 12:1, which calls for presenting our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God.
