The glaring issue that comes to my mind is the fact that the Catholics look to the priesthood of Levi to draw comparisons to their modern priesthood. Christ is literally called a priest of the order of Melchizedek. Unless I am mistaken (which is more than possibly), Melchizedek was the only priest of God in his time.

@@christsavesreadromans1096 James 2:21 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. Justified: having, done for, or marked by a good or legitimate reason. Our works justify to (others) that we are followers of Christ. Because people can only see and observe our actions, they are unable to see if we truly love and know God. Proverbs 21:2 2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts. Matthew 15:19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. Luke 16:15 15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. Romans 4 4 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about-but not before God. 3 What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” 4 Now to the one who works, wages are not credited as a gift but as an obligation. 5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. 6 David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works: 7 “Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. 8 Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord will never count against them.” Romans 10:4 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. John 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. 1 John 5:1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him. Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. Luke 17:5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” John 1:12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God Romans 5:1 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” Galatians 2 15 We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; 16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified. 17 But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I rebuild what I tore down, I prove myself to be a transgressor. 19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

The Bible says if you burn with passion to get married. Theres nothing wrong with celibacy but to command it for your clergy opens up the door for sexual deviancy.

Also, people outside the church must speak well of him..." 1 Timothy 3:2-7 (There is also a list of qualifications in Titus 1:7-9) So, far from requiring elders and overseers to be celibate, the Bible seems to teach the opposite!

And at least regarding the apostolic fathers being students to the apostles, I think in cases of Clemens of Rome, Polykarb, Irenaeus and others, they are right.

Seeing as how St.Ignatius of Antioch was martyred around the year 110. You’d have to make the argument , as a Protestant, that Christianity was lost from the death of the apostles to the reformation. That’s roughly 1400 years. Try reading his epistles , he was the first bishop of Antioch. When the reformers stumbled upon them , they thought they were forgeries, it wasn’t until about 50 years ago that we discovered ancient copies of about 6 out of 12 of his texts.

The word "priest" emerged from "presbyter" within the context of Catholic Europe, where the understanding of the presbyterate as a new priestly class had already completely solidified. It wasn't until the Reformation until a lot of people began to think that the concepts of "priest" and "presbyter" should remain distinct. But by that point, we were already kind of stuck with the word. It does 100% make things more confusing.

Bishops originally were priests. They delegated some of their Priestly authority to the Presbyters making them "priests" under them. Married priest were the norm in the East. Monks were not only unmarried, but "monastic" meaning isolated from society. In Orthodoxy a "Presbyter" is a tool of the Priest who is the Bishop. But in Roman belief, every Priest is just a tool of the Pope. He is the only "Priest" and has direct jurisdiction over every church. But think of it this way, if an Apostle had started a church, and then told a Presbyter, "I am going to leave for now, it's your job to do such and such while I am gone" what is wrong with that? In the East, the word Priest, really only refers to Bishops, and we use the word Priest just to talk with Romans with terms they understand.

Also we have Didache which describes the orders of Bishops and Deacons and is derivative of materials that were used to describe the proper practice and of Christianity what were present in the first century. The scripture of the first century was read at the weekly services which themselves are referred to in the New Testament. Also, there were dozens of books that were considered to be scripture by one or another community until the 4th century when a determination was made of which books and versions were appropriate. The body that made that determination had Liturgy, Eucharistic practice, and Bishops and Deacons as well as a monastic rule that is described in the Apostolic Constitution.
