Revelation 1:6--He has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father
1 Peter 2:5--And now God is buliding you, as living stones, into his spiritual temple. What's more, you are God's holy priests, who offer the spiritual sacrifices that please him because of Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:9--But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are a kingdom of priests, God's holy nation, his very own possession.
1 Peter 2:11--Dear brothers and sisters, you are foreigners and aliens here.
John 14:6--I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me.
The Kingdom of God: A spiritual kingdom that is not of this world. My home is not earth but rather heaven.
Priests: God's servants that offer worship and praise and sacrifices to the only true God of the universe. They are not priests of this world but rather on assignment from God to witness to his greatness, glory, and character.
Temple: The place where God is worshipped. God is building a spiritual temple comprising each of us believers.
Jesus Christ: Through him, all people may enter into God's kingdom as a living stone of God's temple and a priest offering sacrifices to worship God.
