I was a protestant for many years, in fact i was a baptist here in Australia and i was so staunch about faith in Christ that i even started traveling around Aus, to preach the Gospel every where i went.
Well now i am an Orthodox Christian(Coptic ) actualy and i now believe there is a christian priesthood, but most protestant denominations do not have a priesthood, i will present evidence from both scripture and History, including ECF's and other documentation to prove that there has always been a christian priesthood, but only if a protestant will defend there stance on there belief that there is mno priesthood.

God Bless

Hello Macarius, I am happy to hear from you. So you were a Baptist for a while and lead and preach Gods word.

You Know what I believe, That the Church you and I attend are vessel that the Lord uses for His Glory.

The Church can Lead you to Christ but can not Save us. The Priesthood can not make you or me a better Christian.

The only way to be a Christian we must be born again, through the blood of Christ. Pastors, Preachers, and Priest are Just men that are there to lead the flock or sheep's.

And you and I have the same power and weakness as they do.

Maybe someone else will challenge you my friend but not me. God bless you ,your friend with the glory land.
