Why is the concept of Christ's royal priesthood important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's royal priesthood is essential as it secures our access to God and represents our salvation.

In Psalm 110, we see that Christ is not only declared king but also a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. This duality is vital for Christians as it assures us of our reconciliation with God; Christ serves as our mediator who has the authority to offer the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. His priestly role signifies that He intercedes for us, ensuring that we have continuous access to God's grace. This concept comforts believers, reinforcing that our salvation and relationship with God are anchored in the finished work of Christ as our high priest.
