For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, (1 Timothy 2:5 ESV)
People are ignorant; need Word of God through prophets;
People are guilty; need to offer atonement for sin through priests;
People are rebellious; need enforcement of law through kings.
Under the old covenant, God gave temporary prophets, priests and kings.
Under the new covenant, Jesus is the true prophet, priest and king.
Prophets are called; priests are consecrated and kings are crowned.
From Rev Stephen Schaefer, JSM Church Camp 2018.
