| Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; and hast made us unto our God kings and priests. – 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. |
| Ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the Ministers of our God. – Priests of God and of Christ. |
| Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus. – By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. |
| For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. – The temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. |
