Work of Christ
I believe that Jesus occupies three main offices: Prophet, Priest, and King and he fulfills these three offices perfectly.
• As prophet he reveals God to us and speaks God’s word to us.(Deut. 18:15-18, Matt. 16:14, John 4:19,Heb.1:1-2)
• As priest Jesus offered a perfect sacrifice for sin.(Heb.4:14,9:24,9:26,10:4)
• As priest Jesus continually brings us near to God.(Heb.6:19-20,Luke 23:45,Heb.10:19-22)
• As priest Jesus continually prays for us.(Heb.7:25, Rom.8:34,Acts 25:24, Rom.11:2)
• As king Jesus rules over the church and over the universe as well.(Matt.2:2, John 18:36, Matt.4:17,23;12:28,26:64,2 Thes.1:7-10;Rev.19:11-16,Phil.2:10)
