King and Priest Ministers:
Text: Revelation 1:6; 5:10
The Scriptures in Revelation 1:6 and 5:10 discuss Saints being kings and priests. Priest Ministers function in the Church as clergy, whereas kings can be portrayed as the Ministers in the marketplace. All Saints are members of the Body of Christ and have a membership Ministry to manifest. All are called to be the salt of the earth, the light of the world, witnesses for Jesus, and demonstrators of the Kingdom of God.
Priestly ministers fulfill their membership ministry mainly inside the local church. Kingly ministers fulfill their membership ministry in their workplace, profession or home.

The terms kings and priests are not meant to be exclusive, because many people function to some degree in both areas. For example, someone may be a store owner by primary profession and an anointed, effective Sunday school teacher at the same time. Scripture tells us that we are all a royal Priesthood. However, these terms also help us to understand the special functions to which Jesus calls His Saints. In the Old Testament, Israel had both political leaders who saw to the affairs of the nation and priestly leaders who oversaw the functions of the temple.

Christ Jesus is both the great High Priest and the King of kings. But many times we see Him primarily in His "spiritual" role as an itinerant minister. Yet Jesus was raised by a kingly minister. In his book God@Work, Rich Marshall states:
When God sent His son to live on
this earth, He chose to put Him in the
home of a businessman. We understand
Mary is the mother of Jesus, and that God
is His Father. But we also know that
Joseph fulfilled the role of father on
earth. God entrusted His Son into the
hands of Mary and Joseph, a carpenter-
a businessman. I am convinced that God
does nothing by mistake, and that He
wastes no opportunity. Therefore, it could
be that Jesus was raised in the home of a
businessman as a part of the plan and
purpose of God. If God had sent His Son
into this society to be born of a woman, I
personally believe that He would have
placed Him in the home of a business
leader like He did with Mary and Joseph...
The Lord reminded me that what He
does in the natural realm is intended to
speak to us in the spiritual realm. "Yes, I
put John the Baptist into the home of a
Priest, and I put My Son into the home of
a businessman. Remember the purpose,
My calling on John? He was to announce
the arrival of My Son."
... What the Lord whispered into my spirit
that day was this: "That is still the purpose
for My priests. They are to announce the
coming revival. And as it was with My
Son, born into the home of a king, a
businessman, My purpose for the kings
is to bring that revival in. I will use them,
the business and professional people,
CEO's and employees, to bring in the
harvest. "
The Pharisees did not expect their Messiah to be a carpenter from Nazareth who put no value in the intricate details of their spiritual traditions. Today many Christians believe that only work done inside the local church is truly building the Kingdom of God.
