Why is the concept of being made kings and priests unto God important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Being made kings and priests signifies our identity and privileges in Christ, allowing us to serve and worship Him.

In Revelation 21:24, the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into the heavenly city, illustrating the exalted status of believers. According to 2 Timothy 2:12, 'if we suffer, we shall also reign with Him,' which indicates that through Christ's work, believers are made kings and priests. This divine appointment allows Christians to approach God in worship, offer spiritual sacrifices, and reflect His glory. Understanding our identity as royalty and a priesthood encourages us to live in a manner worthy of our calling, recognizing our privileged access to God and our responsibility to spread His glory.
