What is the work of a priest? ...It is to restore
and maintain our fellowship with God. Sin has separated us from having a peaceful
relationship with God. God’s satisfaction can only be attained through a sinless sacrifice being
made for us. Christ has reconciled us (made peace between God and us) by offering Himself as the one-time offering for our sins (Hebrews 9:22-28; 10:10-14; Romans 5:1-10).
