Echoing the priestly functions of Old Testament priests who officiated at the altar on behalf of the people, the role of the Officiant today provides clergy recognition to those called to serve God’s people. This role is deeply rooted in tradition and biblical instruction, as seen in Leviticus 10:11, where priests are commanded to perform ceremonies and teach the Israelites all the decrees given by the Lord through Moses. Similarly, the modern Officiant’s duties in facilitating ceremonies and imparting spiritual guidance reflect the sacred responsibilities of the priests, bridging ancient practices with contemporary ministry.

Drawing on the teachings and inspiration from the ministerial roles exemplified in the New Testament, Minister positions within the Christian Leaders Alliance are designed to embody the call to shepherd God’s people and spread the Gospel. Paul’s words in 2 Timothy 2:2, “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others,” perfectly capture the essence of a Minister’s role: to faithfully transmit the teachings of the faith, ensuring that the wisdom and teachings of Christ are preserved and passed down through generations. Consequently, both licensed and ordained ministers at the Christian Leaders Alliance reflect the New Testament’s model of mentorship, teaching, and spiritual leadership, nurturing a continuum of faith that bridges centuries.
