A priest of Christ is a worshiper of Christ

[Fred]

Your OP is a good defense for the Trinity; keep it up...

Thanks.
Sorry I misunderstood. It has been a long day for me.

Praise God.

 

[ReverendRV]

Still want to know who are the ordained “low” priests?

Christ is high priest heb 8:1 there must be low priests for him to be in authority over.

Thanks

Typical Roman Catholic rhetoric. Focus on "Mary", and not on JESUS, whom God sent into the world.

Just stating facts
why does everything have to be a competition?

They are priests according to the order of the royal priesthood and offer the sacrifice of praise!

Christ is high priest according to the order of melchisedec, who are the low priests of this order?

Royal priesthood non-ordained!
Non-ministerial!

Order of melchisedec ordained and ministerial priesthood!

Thanks

Don't expect anti-biblical doctrine to go unchecked.

No I mean why a competition between Jesus and Mary?
Their unity is indissoluble

Ministerial priesthood: “apostles & their successors, and those they ordain” (low priests)

With priestly ministry:
Mk 3:14 “ordained”
Matt 22:14 Jn 15:16 “chosen” “ordained”
Jn 20:21 “sent by Christ with His authority”
Jn 20:23 “power to forgive sins”
Acts 1:8 “anointing with power”
acts 1:15-26 “ministry / bishop”
Acts 2:38-39 “administered sacraments”
acts 14:23 “ordained”
Acts 16:4 “ordained “
Rom 15:16 “minister / sanctify”
1 cor 9:14 “ordained”
1 Tim 2:7 “ordained”
1 Tim 3:1-2 “bishop”
1 Tim 4:14 “priest” “priestly ministry”
Phil 1:1 “bishops deacons”
James 5:14 “anointing with oil”

The ministerial priesthood acts in “the person of Christ” so it is Christ who acts thru them vicariously.
2 cor 2:10 Jn 15:5 eph 5:24

Offering the sacrifice of Christ!

Thanks

Jesus is the proper recipient of prayer because He is God.
Mary, as well as every created being isn't, because they are not God.

Prayer and s directed to God, thru her intercession

Prayer is also improperly addressed to her.

Since Jesus is REAL, and the ONE who sacrificed his life as our SIN OFFERING, and the Roman Catholic "Blessed virgin" thing doesn't even exist, there's NO COMPETITION at all.

We Give the REAL Mary, mother of Jesus, the honor and reputation that she rightly deserves for her difficult ministry.

Just imagine being given the responsibility of raising God's Only Begotten SON to maturity in the nurture and admonition of God!!! Particularly when your community knows that you got pregnant out of wedlock, and there's this "wild story" about an ANGEL!!! I'm sure the Jewish community was "very supportive" of her, and the baby, and some probably even thought she should have been stoned!!
