What if one core low church Protestant belief could actually make you a stronger, more responsible Christian? In this episode, we dive into the biblical idea of the Priesthood of All Believers and contrast it with the Catholic, Orthodox, and many high church Protestant view of Apostolic Succession. Can only priests baptize, bless communion, or offer forgiveness? Or does Scripture teach that every believer is empowered to minister directly?
We challenge the notion that forgiveness, baptism, or communion must come through ordained clergy and explore how this impacts spiritual maturity. When Christians believe they must go through a priest to access God, does it create dependence—or does it weaken personal faith? We argue that when believers take ownership of their walk with Jesus, it leads to deeper spiritual growth, authentic discipleship, and a more empowered Church.
Perfect for new Christians, skeptics, or anyone curious about theology, church history, or biblical authority—this video tackles the heart of what it means to have direct access to God through Christ. Subscribe for more content that explores tough and often overlooked topics in the Christian faith!
