(which doesn't mean we abrogate
but fulfill the law) we are to be:
A prophet by encouraging what God's Word says, and by warning of what God's Word says (Ezekiel 3:21)
we are to be a priest by ministering to others to serve others graciously
(2 Cor. 9:7)

1 Peter 4:11c "that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ"
