"Hebrews 414-16 & Henrews 9:11-15"

Both of those two beautiful verses are completely compatible with the Catholic ministerial priesthood. If you do not think so, you are in error.

Peace be with you.

No, it does not justify the priesthood, nor are they compatible with it. They explain why the priesthood is no longer necessary. Those verses I posted do not support the RCC priesthood in the least and anyone who is not brainwashed and has a modicum of reading comprehension can see that.

Once a person is saved, their sins are forgiven and there is no need for a priesthood.

Hebrews 10:12-18 But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, 13 waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. 14 For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

15 And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,”

17 then he adds,

“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

18 Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
