  • Is the Catholic priesthood in the Bible? What is the difference between the priests in the Old Testament and Catholic priests today? The history of the priesthood is lengthy and can be very complicated, but you can understand it!
    Jeff Cavins is joined by Dr. John Bergsma to give a thorough narration of the priesthood starting in Genesis and journeying all the way to today. As Jeff Cavins said, "This is one of the best I've heard of someone going through a study of the priesthood."

    Thank you Dr for pointing out the similarities between the Tabernacle of our Church and that of the Egyptian Kings.
    Just a few months ago , I was on a tour of Egypt and trip down the Nile River. Upon my return , my parish priest asked me what impressed me about my journey.
    I was so taken on how the Old Testament rituals were similar to some of Ancient Egyptian Mythology.
    God really is amazing!
    Thank Jeff and Ascension Press for helping us grow in our faith and building the Kingdom of God.

    The Gospel of John is also my favorite Gospel. I love that John tells us that he and Peter ran to the empty tomb, and that he, John, won the race, it just sounds so competitive. But that he respected Peter enough to allow him to enter the tomb first (John 20:3-6). And that he admits that he hadn't believed that Jesus would rise from the dead (John 20:8-9). The words that "he saw and believed" reflect everything he tells us about Jesus, from the changing of water into wine until the resurrection. And it's lovely that he tells us Mary Magdalene saw the resurrected Jesus first (John 20:14-16). John feels so much like the eyewitness that he was.

    Mr. Cavins, could you teach in some interview more about the royal priesthood of the laity in connection to the offertory part of the liturgy which possibly is not that obvious any more. What I understand the ancient liturgies had an offertory during which the deacons gathered the offerings, wine, water and bread from among the people and the offering was carried to the altar in a procession.
    I would like to hear some biblical teaching of this.
    "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God-this is your true and proper worship."

And from them I will send survivors to the nations, to Tarshish, Put, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off, that have not heard my fame or seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations. 20 And they shall bring all your brethren from all the nations as an offering to the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the Lord, just as the Israelites bring their cereal offering in a clean vessel to the house of the Lord. 21 And some of them also I will take for priests and for Levites, says the Lord.”

      Matthias was the replacement of Judas as the 12th. All the Apostles was chosen by Jesus. Matthias was also chosen by God when they cast lots and it pointed to Matthias. Matthias was the first example of Apostolic succession. Apostles were not ordained to be apostle. Only in priesthood.
