Your parish priest and the Catholic priests through the ages are ordained

priests. They are called by God and receive the

sacrament of Holy Orders.

Page 27: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

They have four dimensions of ministry, namely,

disciple, apostle,

presbyter and presider at the Eucharist

Page 28: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

Disciple-the priest is called to follow Jesus

Apostle- he is sent to serve in the mission of the Church

Page 29: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

Presbyterhe is responsible for the pastoral care of the Church and her members

Presider at the

Eucharist

he offers the sacrifice of the Mass.

Page 30: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

Hebrews 5:8-10 

Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered; and when he was made perfect, he became the

source of eternal salvation for all who obey Him, declared by

God as high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

Page 31: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

•Jesus is the High Priest (Heb 3:2; 4:14). •“He is the unique mediator of the New Covenant between God and humankind.” (CFC 1954)

Page 32: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

•Jesus is divine, therefore, He is not only the spokesman of God. He is Emmanuel, God-among-us.

•He is the perfect mediator, for in His being, the perfect union of God and man is fulfilled.

Page 33: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

•Jesus fulfills His being High Priest by His actions. His whole life was an offering to God. His death is the perfect sacrifice and His resurrection brings salvation to us all.

Page 34: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

What is the challenge

now?

The challenge for us, is to make Christ’s perfect sacrifice ever present and operative in our lives. Thus our sharing in the priestly mission of Christ is an ongoing call to live a life of sacrifice.

Page 35: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

The Church continues to call us to participate in the threefold

mission of Jesus as members of the Church, namely, as prophet,

king and priest. Furthermore PCP II calls us to build the

Church of the Poor as a priestly community.

Page 36: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

PCP II gives three dimensions of how we live this communal sharing in Christ’s priesthood: 1.as a consecration - our commitment to God in everything we do2.as mediating God’s plan - our work to transform the world3.as sacrifice of life together with Christ - our task to celebrate in the Eucharist

Page 37: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

How are we going to participate in the threefold mission of Jesus as members of the Church?

Page 38: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

Jesus as a prophet spoke of God’s word backed

up with deeds of power and life witnessing

In the Holy Communion we unite with Jesus Christ who brings us into true life

JESUS AS A PROPHET

JESUS AS A PROPHET

Christ commissioned His disciples to

carry on His works, to

proclaim the Kingdom of God and to respond

in His call

Page 40: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

Jesus is uniquely high priest by his very being and actions. (CFC, 1955) “Christ gives the dignity of a Royal Priesthood to the people He has made His own…” (Preface, Chrism Mass)

We offer worship to God in the Eucharist by receiving the

sacraments, and by offering prayers and thanksgiving.

Page 41: THE THREE-FOLD MISSION OF JESUS JESUS AS PROPHET.

In sharing Christ’s priestly ministry we are called to do good and avoid evil. (CFC, 1960)
