Why does the Catholic Church have priests? Are they biblical? Did the early Church have priests? What about the "priesthood of all believers?" On today's episode of the podcast, Dr. John Bergsma, a reformed Protestant pastor turned Catholic Bible scholar, will be answering these questions as we talk about his book "the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood." We will also discuss what it means to be a priest, the typology of Christ as the New Adam and the Church as the New Israel, and more.
