Christ, the Prophet, Priest and King

God created man to be a prophet, having a true knowledge of Him; a priest, possessing righteousness and holiness; and a king, having dominion over God’s creation. But man fell into sin and did not follow the plan that God had outlined.
Throughout the Old Testament era, God appointed men to fill the offices of prophet, priest, and king. They were known as “the LORD’S anointed.”
“But when the fulness of the time was come” (Galatians 4:4), God sent His Son to the earth as the Messiah – “the Anointed One.”
This book explains the unfolding of God’s plan for prophets, priests, and kings. These three offices were combined in Jesus, “the Anointed One.” He fills these offices to the highest degree possible. Christ our Prophet, our Priest, and our King deserves all our worship and service.
