Luther

But further, we are priests, which is more than kings, for priesthood makes us worthy to stand before God and to pray for others. For it behoves none but priests to stand before God. Thus Christ gained this privilege for us, so that we might stand and intercede for one another in spirit, as a priest stands before his people in the flesh making intercession.—On the Freedom of a Christian, 1520.
