Nothing is more vital to a believer’s comfort and sanctification than understanding the scope of the Lord’s priestly office. Conversely, some struggle with sin, doubt, temptation, discouragement, or an accusing conscience because they fail to grasp the significance of Christ’s priesthood. In Comfort and Holiness from Christ’s Priestly Work, William Bridge reminds us that “Christ’s office as a priest is the great storehouse and supply of all the grace and comfort that we have on this side of heaven.” Read this edifying book and see how Jesus’ fourfold labor of satisfaction, intercession, offering gifts, and blessing His people works to sooth your weary soul and grow you in godliness.
