Priests

A blessed oil called the oil of chrism or sacred chrism. It is usually blessed by a bishop at the Chrism Mass on or just before holy Thursday. It is an olive oil with a perfumed scent ( similar to myrrh that Jesus received from the Wise men at his birth) added.

Primarily, the Catholic Church is the Body of Christ, and so she is a witness for Him in the world. She is also the sacrament of salvation, and this is worked out in people's lives through the seven sacraments, which the Church administers. She proclaims the Gospel, ministers to the faithful, and evangelizes those not yet converted.

The priest life style is that they always have fun.

One does not have to be a cardinal to be elected pope. However, it is now rare for that to happen. Pope Urban VI, born Bartolomeo Prignano, was Pope from 8 April 1378 to his death in 1389. He was the last Pope to be elected from outside the College of Cardinals.

Most diocesan priests live in rectories that are provided by the parish as a home for the local clergy. The rectories are usually located close to, or attached to, the church building. This way, the priests are close to their work and more available to the parishioners.

Nope. If they were then you would be like the UK. Where we failed to achieve the modernity of separating church and state. Instead our queen heads the state religion of which itself was involved in making laws, a constitutional arrangement that only Iran has decided to mimic. Unless you want a monarch to rule over you then your country should be an ecclesiastical or sacradotal state.

idk sorry,but peasants lived in houses that were made ofbricks adobe walls supported on stone foundations (with a mean of 15 square meters)

Not in the eyes of the Catholic Church. They do not consider an Episcopal Priest to be ordained in Apostolic Succession, so is therefore a layman (a non-priest like you or I).

This is depite Episcopalian (and all priests in the Anglican Communion) being able to trace their succession back through the bishops to the pre-Reformation Church based in Rome.

Taoist priests are called Taoshi.

Deacon vestments had their own family, they had children's and a wife. But the priest family c0mp0sed of us...

Aaron, Moses' brother, was the first high priest of Judaism in Exodus. His son, Eleazer was his replacement when he died. As Christians, Jesus is now our high priest who stands between us and God as our mediator. We still sin as Christians, but we are forgiven if we are sincere when we repent. To repent in Greek means to "turn around", to go a different direction.

For one, they're more of a preacher than a priest. And there's not as many rules on the dress code, and a lot of them (mine) are much more friendly and/or less strict.

Yes they did... however the priests of Greek mythology probably differed from the priests of todays christianity. in christianity they teach to pray and ask God for things whereas in ancient Greece the preists where probably trying to sacrafice animals to the Gods to keep them happy. evidence of priests are littered everywhere however such as Chryses who during the Trogan war prayed to the Gods. A man called Agamemnon took Chryses' daughter Chryseis from Moesia as a war prize and when Chryses attempted to ransom her, refused to return her. Chryses prayed to Apollo, and he, in order to defend the honor of his priest, sent a plague sweeping through the Greek armies, and Agamemnon was forced to give Chryseis back in order to end it.

They ate largely the same stuff that ordinary Egyptians ate. Egyptian diet was not rich in meat, and venison was only for the rich. Priests however may well have gotten the leftovers from sacrifices, because ancient cultures were not in the habit of letting food go to waste. For normal Egyptians bread and gruel, plus fruit that was in season were the most common ingredients. Surprisingly for a people that lived on the borders of the Nile river, research on mummies' intestines has shown that Egyptians were not great fish eaters. Although Hollywood movies have suggested differently, the regular eating habits of the rich and powerful were not much different from those of the common people, although the quality of the food very probably was better.

There's greek othodox church, so there was a lot of greek priests.

There is no set color for a First Holy Communion Mass (although gold can substitute for any color), so he would wear whatever the color of the season is, green for Ordinary Time, Violet for Advent and Lent, White for Christmas and Easter. It would be different if the first Holy Communion was on a saint's day. He may also just wear white or gold.

A priest is a teacher, a spiritual leader, empowered to perform special rituals. They take care of their "flock"-comforting people, providing counseling. They interact with the larger institution of their religion.

The priest is another Christ, he provides the senses, hands and feet for Our Blessed Lord to reach His people. He bring God to the people, and leads the people to God.

"Parish priest" is a job.

Like every Christian, a priest is foremost a follower of Jesus Christ, trying to live as Jesus taught us. But a priest has a particular role. Firstly he or she represents the Church to the wider community, reaching out with the good news of God's love in mission and service. Secondly, she or he has a responsibility of being alongside the members of their congregations, helping them to grow in their discipleship through worship, exploring their Christian faith and serving the wider community. Thirdly, the priest is a leader in the Christian community, who is also responsible for encouraging the gifts, skills and ministries of others.
