7/5/13: A born again Christian has certain God ordained positions in the Kingdom of God.  This question arises from time to time following published pronouncements by the Roman Catholic hierarchy.  The Biblical qualifications in the Kingdom of God differ.

Scripturally, all born again Christians are considered to have the position of priest in the Kingdom of God.  I found the following web site to support this contention on Priesthood of Believers: http://www.gotquestions.org/priesthood-believers.html.

Then there is the issue of the Roman Catholic designation of sainthood and the qualifications.  There is nothing wrong with their establishing qualifications for their organization.  However the Biblical qualifications of Sainthood differ and are very well outlined at http://www.angelfire.com/mt/tabor/bibledoctrine.8.html.
