A Priestless Church was good enough for the Apostles. What is wrong with a Priestless Church?Incorrect. Jesus was of the priesthood of Melchisedech as Psalm 109 affirms and the word priest first appears in Scripture in Genesis 14:18 in reference to Melchisedech. Jesus made the Apostles the first priests in His Church.

He did what??? The apostles never called themselves Priests. Jesus never called them Priests. They never offered sacrificed like the Jewish Priests of the time or the Catholic Priests of our time. Paul actually said that there were to be no more sacrifices. Catholic Priests offer sacrifices during Mass.

You kindly provided the scripture references for the first part (Jesus is a Priest of the Order of Melchisidek, He was!), but you neglected to provide the scripture reference for the last part.
