In Pentecostal faith and doctrine when a convert is baptized in
the Holy Spirit they are ordained into the body of Christ and are
then fully authorized as priests in the church of God:
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first
begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth.
Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father;
to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Revelation 1:
5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house,
an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable
to God by Jesus Christ.
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation,
a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath
called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
1Peter 2:
Thus a Pentecostal saint can go forth and preach the full gospel,
baptize people,
lay hands on others and pray for others,
teach and admonish,
cast out devils and rebuke Satan,
share their testimonies to the miraculous
be an ambassador to the Kingdom of God.
