do u believe in priest?

Question

do u follow their way & believe it is god's way

Answer 1

in Islam there are no priests or clergy -- each worshipper, man or woman, has a direct relationship with their Merciful Creator -- Almighty God. Since God is the Owner and Sustainer of everything, as well as the only one who can provide true and complete forgiveness, it is completely futile to try to approach Him through anyone else.



Some religions say that human beings, due to their sinfulness, cannot approach God without an intermediary -- which mistakenly implies that God is unable or unwilling to forgive human-beings directly. Adam "atoned" for his sin by saying "My Lord I have sinned and if you do not forgive me and have mercy upon me then I shall indeed have lost." So God forgave him. Similarly, all human beings have the door to forgiveness left open to them by God

Answer 2

No way. there is ONE mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. Not the priest but Jesus. Jesus said to confess to your Father in Heaven and I do not see a priest as being God no matter what the Catholic Church says. The priest is a sinful man like anyone else and sins as much if not more becasue he thinks he is God on Earth so he is a shoe in to Heaven. I was going to be a priest for that very reason at one time and I have known many with the same thought. No way do you want an everburning hell so be a priest and you already have a foot in Heavens door. Then if you look in the bible, it puts that myth to rest as it says there is only one mediator, Jesus. Not the priest but Jesus. Priest is just a man that is misguided thinking he is above the common person and better than anyone else as he is God.

Answer 3

No I do not.
Jesus is my High Priest, made that way by God Himself.
I don't need a priest. In a true aspect, I am a priest.
This is God's way.
Rev 1:6 and He has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father; to Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
1 Pet 2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
So to your question No.

Answer 4

I believe in Jesus. I follow His teachings and the Word of the Lord - the Bible. I believe religious leaders, such as priests and pastors can help us further understand the Word of the Lord, but I research everything the say with the Bible. If it's not in there, it's not the truth.

Answer 5

I believe that Christ is my High Priest, my Prophet and my King. I believe that He is GOD. I don't believe in the (human) priest or in my case the pastor. the Bible says that we should test the Word and see if it's of GOD and also that we should work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. If anything is preached or said by my pastor and is not in agreement with GOD's Word I won't take it on board. I'm responsible for my soul not the priest or the pastor.

Answer 6

I certainly believe that Jesus is our heavenly high priest.

I also believe that Jesus selected eleven out of twelve good men to be his bishops and priests on earth.

I believe that those men were authorized to select and ordain others to help them do their holy work.

I believe that Jesus instituted seven valid sacraments and left them behind for us, in the care of his true church.

I believe that only validly ordained priests are authorized to administer those seven sacraments, which are God's primary channels of grace.

I believe that anyone who chooses to ignore all this, based on late, faulty traditions of men, and misguided interpretations of scripture, harm not only themselves, but every member of the body of Christ.

I also believe that anyone who attempts to obtain heaven without the assistance of validly ordained priests and authentic, grace giving sacraments, may have a tougher time getting in there than they think.

Answer 7

I believe that as the Lords sheep we need a shepard but as of right now my church has no pastor so I dont believe that its a must. I think a pastor or a preist is there only for guidence and counceling.

Answer 8

SS7,
As I have it, any who believe in Christ are both saints and preists. It doesn't take a "church" to make them saints or priests, it takes the faith in Christ to make them so.

So the line of authority rests not with ordination of churches, but by the faith one has in Christ. By His authority does He make us so.

What churches ordain, according to the Bible, are deacons, and bishops. God gives the gifts of the Spirit, ministers, healers, prophecies, but the church hasn't the authority to designate those things either. The recognition of those that have the gifts are good to have. But they would be foolish to have a vote on something God has not delegated.

Answer 9

donot be confused coz beleving in gd is and issue and beleivng in priest is different issue coz there are religion which it`s beleifs donot beleive in priests,
personally i donot beleive in them coz we must not be obligied to have a contact with god throught the priest,coz we must ask for the forgiveness of god directly from us to him and never use and connection to him,the only connection to the god and his mercy is our hearts not anthore humans.
