Description
  • Priests were set apart as holy to the Lord, entrusted with unique responsibilities in ministry. For believers, holiness, righteousness, and blamelessness come not through ritual obedience to the Law but through the sacrifice of Christ. Under the New Covenant, believers themselves have become priests, and as priests, we are called to holiness. The Levitical priests faced strict outward and inward requirements as a reflection of God’s holiness; there could be no physical blemish. In the same way, believers should strive to be without blemish. Yet unlike the Levitical system, the believer is not restricted by physical or ritual conditions. Rather, it is the blemish of unrighteousness that hinders service. Zechariah’s judgment of silence demonstrates that being considered righteous does not mean the absence of sin in the believer’s life. For the believer, sin must instead lead to repentance before God.
