All Things Seen & Unseen

An understanding of the People of God as a priesthood of all believers derives from the New Testament.  In 1 Peter 2.9-10 it says that C 1 hurch is a 'chosen race' (ASV), 'a holy nation, a royal priesthood and a peculiar [a people who are his possession and therefore, a special] people'. 2   In short, the Body 1 of Christ is a 'priesthood of believers' (see also Rev 1.6, 5.10, 20.6).

Met another Chinese lady on Valentine's Day. She (S) is a high school pupil with excellent English doing year 11. She has a Christian mother. I asked S about the Christian faith and she said openly that she wasn't a Christian. I t seemed then I got a prompt to ask her about Jesus and she told me she believed he was a good man. A good man? Just a good man? I missed a golden opportunity to follow up here (but the shop was busy and S was there to help for the day).
