There is no priesthood roll in the NT church ... The last Priest died on the cross and rose from the dead.. He is offering continual sacrifices for us in heaven

Exactly. Most Protestants with whom I've conversed do not understand the bolded part.

And it is Christ that offers the sacrifice of the Mass. And it is Christ who forgives sins.

Apparently you understand the doctrine of "In Persona Christi Capitis" very well.

Good job!!! (no sarcasm)

So are you saying that you don’t believe in the priest acting in place of Christ during the Mass??

Alter Christus??

Please do some checking on that.

I don't know about rolls per se, but many priest I've met were fine cooks.

“He is offering continual sacrifices for us in heaven”

Hebrews 7:

“26For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself.”

and 9:

“24For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.”

There are different types of sacrifices, and the sacrifices of praise and obedience are offerings we are still to make, but the atoning sacrifice of Jesus is finished.

AMEN!

And there sure isn't any "alter Christus" ("another Christ") whom we've been told by Father Kenneth Baker, is "another Christ...in his professional as well as personal life."
