專項事奉

Priesthood of Church Service 教会事奉的祭司体系 You yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house into a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. (1 Pe 2: 5) 你們來到主面前，也就像活石，被建造成為靈宮，成為聖別的 祭司體系 ，藉著耶穌基督奉獻神所悅納的靈祭。(彼前2: 5) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired for a possession, so that you may tell out the virtues of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; (1 Pe 2: 9) 惟有你們是被揀選的族類，是君尊的祭司體系，是聖別的國度， 是買來作產業的子民，要叫你們宣揚那召你們出黑暗入奇妙光 明者的美德。(彼前2: 9)

…through Him we both have access in one Spirit unto the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone; In whom all the building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord; In whom you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in spirit. (Eph 2: 18 -22) 因為藉著祂，我們兩下在一位靈裡，得以進到父面前。這 樣，你們不再是外人和寄居的，乃是聖徒同國之民，是神 家裡的親人，被建造在使徒和申言者的根基上，有基督耶 穌自己作房角石；在祂裡面，全房聯結一起，長成在主裡 的聖殿；你們也在祂裡面同被建造，成為神在靈裡的居所。 (弗 2: 18 -22)
