The priesthood of all believers is a core Protestant belief. But what
does it actually mean? Uche Anizor and Hank Voss set the record
straight in this concise treatment of a doctrine that lies at the center
of church life and Christian spirituality. The authors look at the
priesthood of all believers in terms of the biblical witness, the
contribution of Martin Luther and the doctrine of the Trinity. They
place this concept in the context of the canonical description of Israel
and the church as a royal priesthood that responds to God in witness
and service to the world.
Representing Christ is much more
than a piece of Reformation history. It shows that the priesthood of all
believers is interwoven with the practical, spiritual and missional
life of the church.
