  2. What is the Sacrament of Priesthood? • The Sacrament of Priesthood is the Holy Sacrament by which the Bishop lays his hand on the elected candidate in order for the Holy Spirit to descend on this person to grant him one of the priestly ranks. • the ordained person is granted the authority to perform the ministry of the Church, whether the Holy Sacraments, teaching or others. • This process is called “Laying of hands” or “Ordination.”

  3. When was it instituted? • “He called His disciples to Him, and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles” (Lk 6:13) • He gave them the authority of absolution and binding, “He breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit’. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained” (John 20:22-23)

  4. Matthew 16:18-19 • And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed[a] in heaven.”

  5. Honor of Priesthood • “No man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God” (Heb 5:4) •  ”Let the elders (presbyteros) who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.” 1 Timothy 5:17

  6. A Divine Choice, Call and Appointment • “Then He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons.” (Mk 3:13-15) • “And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles.” (Lk 6:12-13) • “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain.” (Jn 15:16) • · “After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.” (Lk 10:1) • “As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.’ Then, having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they • sent them away.” (Acts 13:2-3)
