But ...That's true about some of the sacraments. But you seem to miss my point. Read I Corinthians chapter 12, for example, and tell me what is sacramental about, e.g. Working of miracles. And, what if I Cor. 14:26 and 31? It's not just priestly sacraments, but the gifts of the Spirit. You find another list in Romans 12.Fr.

Of course not. Neither did Martin Luther. It seems to me that he used the word "priesthood" with poetic license. It is the entire Church, the Body of Christ, that is sent and empowered to minister by the gifts of the Holy Spirit.Fr.
