What does the Bible say about the priesthood of Christ?
Answered in 4 sources
The Bible teaches that Christ is our perfect high priest who offered one sacrifice for sins forever, unlike the Old Testament priests.
The priesthood of Christ is distinctly different from that of the Old Testament priests. In Hebrews 10:11-14, it is stated that every high priest stands daily, offering sacrifices that can never take away sins. But this man—Jesus Christ—after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, signifying that his work is complete. This is significant because the previous priests continuously offered sacrifices, but none could actually take away sin. In contrast, Christ's one-time offering was perfect and sufficient, providing eternal redemption for all whom he represents.
