What does the Bible say about the priesthood of all believers?

Answered in 1 source

The priesthood of all believers is established by Christ's death, making all Christians priests unto God.

The Bible teaches that with Christ's death, the separate order of priests ended, and a universal priesthood of all believers began. In 1 Peter 2:9, we read that believers are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, which signifies that every child of God has direct access to God and the responsibilities of priesthood. Just as the Old Testament priests offered sacrifices, we, as a holy priesthood, are called to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
