All believers in Christ at Pentecost were the first priests of the catholic Church.

You can claim anything but God and Christ Jesus appointed and commissioned Paul as Apostle for the Gentiles and Jews today - where each race can equally believe in Christ Jesus for the free gift of salvation. If you want to persist with the 'Jewish priesthood of Acts 2' go ahead - today, we are NOT called as priests as were the Jewish believers - read Peter who SPEAKS to Judea and jerusalem - Jews - in Acts 2:

Acts 2:14: But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judæa, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

Acts 2:25: For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

Gentiles would not care in the least bit about David - Peter is only speaking to Jews.

Today - we are ambassadors for Christ, not priests:

II Corinthians 5:20: Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

Any careful Bible reader who carefully reads Galatians 2:6ff know correctly that the Apostle Paul was the ONLY minister to the Gentiles by GOD's direction, not man's purpose or will. And Peter to the Jews (and some Gentiles per the book of Acts).

Galatians 2:7: But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

Galatians 2:8: For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me (e.g., Paul) toward the Gentiles:

And carefully read Peter in II Peter

II Peter 3:15: And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;

II Peter 3:16: As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

Says who???.... The Catholic church??? That is NOT what MY Bible says....

Belive you this, there will be NO denominations in heaven just sinners saved by the grace of God! I don’t think I will see the Pope at the right hand of God, but rather the Lamb that was slain!
