What does it mean to be called a king and priest in God's kingdom?

Answered in 1 source

Being called a king and priest signifies a believer's elevated position and responsibility in serving God and others.

In God's kingdom, believers are referred to as kings and priests, reflecting both their identity and purpose within the spiritual realm. Revelation 5:10 states, 'And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.' This title underscores the honor granted to believers, who are no longer mere subjects but rulers and servants in Christ's Kingdom. As kings, believers possess authority to advocate for God's truth on earth, while as priests, they are called to intercede for others and offer spiritual sacrifices. This duality emphasizes not only the privilege of being in relationship with God but also the call to actively participate in His mission to the world.
