Biblical Theology, Episode 08 Today, Lauren Bowerman is talking with Yannick Christos-Wahab about the theme of priest and priesthood that we see throughout Scripture. Yannick and Lauren trace the theme of priesthood through the Bible, from its early hints in Genesis, through the priests of Israel, and ultimately all the way to Jesus, who fulfills and transform the role as our great high priest (and who then passes the baton to us as a “royal priesthood” of believers!). We hope that seeing Jesus as your high priest in this episode helps you to love him more! 4:30 Understanding Biblical Theology 7:45 Role and Purpose of the Priest 12:30 Why Were Priests Needed? 17:30 The Need for a Better Priest 21:00 Jesus as Our Priest 28:00 Before the Throne 32:00 Priesthood of Believers 37:00 The Word and the Church FULL SHOW NOTES journeywomen.org/episode/jesus-our-perfect-priest DISCUSSION QUESTIONS Was your understanding of the Old Testament and the Levitical priesthood system broadened as you listened to this episode? How so? How does seeing Christ as your perfect priest increase your love for him? Does understanding Christ's priestly work have an impact on the way you feel the weight of your sin, guilt, or shame? How so? What do you think about the fact that you—and every believer—is now a part of a royal priesthood? How does that impact your understanding of your mission in the world?

Javier Leon explores how God's plan for the church is not just for "professional" ministers, but for ordinary people to do extraordinary things in their everyday lives. Through the concept of the "priesthood of every believer," he shares how anyone—from students to retirees—can carry God's presence and kindness into common places like the office or the grocery store. This message reveals how your daily routine is actually a sacred platform for building bridges and representing Christ to the world around you.
Text: 2 Samuel chapters 15-24; 1 Kings chapters 1-3; 1 Chronicles chapters 28-29 Supplemental Text: The Fourth Thousand Years chapters 7-8 BYU Lecture 31: As David declines in life, his son Absalom conspires to kill David and take the throne, assisted by David's traitorous prime minister Ahithophel. The rebellion becomes so threatening that David abandons Jerusalem to save the city from the ravages of civil war. Eventually, David's army confronts the army of Absalom in the woods of Ephraim. David's battle-tested “600 mighty ones” took control of the fight and Absalom's army was devastated with over 20,000 killed. Absalom flees for his life through the forest and is caught by the gnarling branches of a tree, jerked from his racing mule and is left swinging helplessly in the air. David's commanding officer, Joab, finds and kills Absalom. David mourns over the loss of this rebellious son. David now prepares all things to strengthen Israel, fortifies the government, gathers material for the new temple, reorganizes the lessor Priesthood into quorums, and establishes temple choirs and orchestras. As King David weakens from old age, another son named Adonijah seeks the throne. The prophet Nathan, with the understanding that God named Solomon as David's heir, hastens to Bathsheba in hopes of convincing the ailing David of the crisis. Between the two, David was provoked and arose from his deathbed, calling for the prophet to anoint Solomon king of Israel. Hearing the trumpets and commotion of this great anointing, Adonijah and his supporters abandon their own feast of celebration and flee for their lives. For now, Solomon spares their lives. The great King David dies at the age of 70. King Solomon rules the kingdom in righteousness and humility. The Lord appears to him in a dream and grants him wisdom, riches, honor and long life – as long as Solomon remains faithful to the Lord. In great appreciation, Solomon offers sacrifice and begins the task of building a magnificent temple to the Lord.
The Priesthood of Christ and the Melchizedek Order • The Hebrews writer uses Melchizedek as a type to foreshadow the priesthood of Christ, emphasizing that Jesus belongs to the order of Melchizedek rather than the Levitical priesthood . • Christ's priesthood is established not by physical requirements or lineage, but by the power of an indestructible life, distinguishing Him from the Levitical priests who were subject to death . • Jesus, as the Son of God, possesses an indestructible life in both His divine being and His human person, allowing Him to render the power of death and the devil ineffective . The Fulfillment and Setting Aside of the Law • The gospel is described as both simple and intricate, with Jesus fulfilling the moral, judicial, and ceremonial laws perfectly in His life and death. • The former commandments, specifically the judicial and ceremonial laws, are set aside because they were weak and unable to make anyone perfect, unlike the new covenant established through Christ . • The sacrificial system of the Old Testament was merely a foreshadowing that could not produce eternal pardon, whereas Christ's sacrifice provides final and eternal redemption. The Nature of the New Covenant • The law was never intended to make people perfect but rather to showcase the glory of God and the requirements for those He created. • Jesus corrected the misapplications of the law by religious leaders, demonstrating that true righteousness comes from the heart and is fulfilled through His person and work. • The transition from the Saturday Sabbath to the Lord's Day (Sunday) is attributed to the authority of Christ as High Priest, based on His resurrection on the first day of
A bloody ear, thumb, and toe—Why?In the Old Covenant, only the natural offspring of Aaron, the high priest, could be included in the priesthood. In the New Covenant, only the supernatural offspring of the Lord Jesus, the Great High Priest, are granted this status and calling, both now and forevermore. Learn how the initiation rites for priests under the former era reveal profound truths, on a much higher level, about our priestly calling during this age of grace!

This Sunday, Pastor Colt opened 1 Peter 2 with a message called "A Holy Priesthood." He reminded us that because of Christ, we are living stones, built together into a spiritual house. He walked through the vice list in verse one (malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, slander), calling us to see these not as rules to follow but as an old identity we've already left behind. Christ is our cornerstone, the one who makes us new. We are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, God's special possession, called to carry His presence into every room we walk into this week.

RESTORING THE DIGNITY OF PRIESTHOOD | DR DAVID OGBUELI | ASABA POST-ENCOUNTER 2026
In this week's episode of The Bible for Normal People, Pete and Jared talk with Nathan MacDonald about the origins of Israel's priesthood, the role of the Levites, and why the Bible's accounts of priests are far more complex than they first appear. They explore how biblical texts often function less as straightforward historical records and more as theological interpretations that seek to explain, shape, and reconcile Israel's traditions. Together, they invite listeners to reconsider familiar assumptions about the priesthood, the development of the Torah, and how the Bible constructs meaning through its ongoing conversation with its own past.

Priesthood Restoration, Priesthood Restriction, and Revelation June was the month of the priesthood restoration, priesthood restriction, and revelation in LDS Church history. It serves as a month of profound historical significance for Latter-day Saints, marking both the commemoration of the priesthood restoration and the anniversary of the 1978 revelation ending the priesthood and temple ban. Rick Bennett of Gospel Tangents explores the complex history of how priesthood authority was first established and how it evolved over nearly two centuries. https://youtu.be/Tkc1j6r23s0 Don't miss our other conversations on LDS Faith Journeys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9pQpKe9CEk&list=PLLhI8GMw9sJ7WQNTJCyCO3U5D2fn7d0JF Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Restoration Shrouded in Mystery While the restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood has a clear date—May 15, 1829—the restoration of the Melchizedek Priesthood is far more mysterious. Historians have identified three primary hypotheses for when this authority was conferred by Peter, James, and John: June 1829: The traditional narrative, though it lacks contemporary evidence. July 1830: An account involving a nighttime escape from persecution between Colesville and Harmony. June 1831: Records from a special church conference suggest the high priesthood was manifested and conferred “for the first time” over a year after the Church was organized. This presentation relies heavily on Michael Quinn‘s research in his book Origins of Power. Forgotten Black Pioneers Contrary to popular belief, the early Church under Joseph Smith featured a “flat” authority structure where Black men were ordained to the priesthood. Pioneers like Elijah Abel, a faithful member of the Seventy, and Joseph Ball, who served as a branch president in 1844, prove that the “one-drop rule” did not exist in the Church’s earliest days. These men served missions and received temple ordinances decades before the restriction was codified. 1852 Pivot The priesthood ban was not a founding tenet but a mid-19th-century shift. In 1852, amid a legislative struggle in the Utah Territory regarding slavery, Brigham Young declared that “a man who has the African blood in him cannot hold one jot nor tit of priesthood.” This declaration marked the formal beginning of a century of restriction, often justified by theories—now officially disavowed—such as the “Curse of Cain” or the idea that Black members were “less valiant” in the premortal life. Brazil Temple: A Tipping Point The path to the 1978 revelation (Official Declaration 2) was heavily influenced by the Church’s global expansion. The construction of the Sao Paulo Brazil Temple in 1975 created a “dilemma”: faithful Black and mixed-race members were funding and building a temple they would be barred from entering. This reality, combined with years of prayerful supplication by President Spencer W. Kimball, led to the “hallowed and sanctified” moment in the Salt Lake Temple that finally extended priesthood and temple blessings to all worthy members. Moving Toward Unity Today, the Church unequivocally condemns all racism and rejects the past explanations used to justify the ban. The goal of the restoration remains one of redemption and connection, inviting all of God’s children—regardless of race or gender—to walk the covenant path together. Rick shares his theory as to why leaders reacted with hostility to interracial marriage as the primary motivation for Brigham Young to implement the ban.

Discover the profound significance of Jesus Christ as our "Great High Priest" through this in-depth exploration of Hebrews 04.14-05.10. In this study, we contrast the traditional Old Testament Levitical priesthood—established through the lineage of Aaron—with the superior, eternal priesthood of Christ. Human high priests were divinely chosen from among the people to serve as intercessors and comforters for Israel. Jesus is the uniquely begotten Son of God who functions as our ultimate high priest in the timeless order of Melchizedek, offering a perfect, sinless, and permanent intercession from His heavenly seat at the right hand of the Father. By examining how Jesus fulfills these three essential priestly roles—being divinely chosen, acting as our perfect intercessor, and serving as our ultimate comforter—this message highlights His capacity to truly empathize with our weaknesses because He was tempted in every way. This teaching provides a direct application for your daily walk, encouraging you to hold firmly to your faith and to approach God's throne of grace with absolute confidence. Whether you are seeking a deeper understanding of biblical theology or looking for practical spiritual encouragement, this study reveals how resting in Christ's finished work brings true mercy, grace, and peace in your time of needTeaching Notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G6EjH-SZuAKWwgcsNdrDiTvRaFedYj2d_YHyIErtpQQ/edit?usp=sharing

Most of us have some version of church we've settled for. Show up. Sit down. Go home. But what if that's nowhere near what the church was actually designed to be?In Acts 2, the earliest followers of Jesus didn't just attend something — they were devoted to something. Devoted to each other. Devoted to prayer, Scripture, meals, and radical generosity. And the result? People noticed. Lives changed. The community grew — not because of a marketing strategy, but because they were genuinely becoming something different together.In this message, we explore what it looks like for a church to live into its full potential — and what's at stake when we settle for less.You'll walk away thinking about:Commitment — Some commitments require a "yes" even when you don't feel like it. What does it look like to be truly devoted to a community, not just a Sunday service?Maturity — Spiritual growth isn't a solo project. You don't become more like Jesus in isolation. Your development is connected to the people around you — and the community you're willing to stay committed to.Calling — Every person in the church is a minister. Every home is a center of ministry. The question isn't whether you have a role to play — it's whether you're playing it.This isn't a guilt trip about church attendance. It's an invitation to something far more meaningful than a weekly hour on Sunday.

Originally from Goa, India, Daniel's Jesuit formation has brought him to the L'Arche community in Tacoma, WA, to Jesuit High School Sacramento and to St. Columbkille Parish in Brighton, MA, where he is finishing his time as a deacon. As you listen to Daniel's stories and reflections, we invite you to consider whether you or someone you know might be interested in discerning a call to Jesuit life.

Starting in September, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will again participate in three meetings on Sundays. After sacrament meeting, the second-hour will include two 25-minute blocks to ensure both Sunday School and then Relief Society, elders quorum and youth classes. These updates are meant to support members as they learn, worship and serve — both at home and at church, as they try to become more devout and lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. Elder David P. Homer, a General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Priesthood and Family Department, joins Church News reporter Mary Richards to explain what to know about the changes and how to prepare.
