Who was Melchizedek?


Recommended Posts

You know what... I see where this discussion is going already... and it will boil down to authority again, like any Catholic/Protestant topic will eventually do...

Where did you think it was going to go? :)  The original purpose of our discussion before it came to the boards is you asked what would it take for me to be Catholic.  That's what started the priesthood debate, and that is how Melchezedik got brought into this.  I'm not sure what you are wanting out of this discussion.  Just tell me, and I will be happy to oblige :P

Traveller, I see you now :D

What I want is for you to see that priests are necessary and that Christ is the High Priest and the the priests of today are Christ's priests that fulfill the sacraments that Christ set up.

Where does it say in the Bible that the line of Melchizedek ends with Christ? Its says that he is a priest forever in that order, but it doesn't say that it end or that Christ is the only priest in that line. Melchizedek was a priest, he was not a high priest. Christ was always THE High Priest (even though there were other high priests in the OT), even though we didn't know it. Melchizedek was a type of Christ, but he is also a forshadowing of the Christ's priesthood and of the priests who were to follow after Christ.

Melchizedek's sacrafice, Christ's last supper sacrafice (the Lord's Supper), and the prediction of the rabbis stating that the todah is the only sacrafice that would last forever point DIRECTLY to the Sacrafice of the Mass and, more specifically, the Eucharist. And, as a sacrafice, it must be led by a priest...

You want me to see your point, but you don't want me to discuss mine?  Munari, this isn't like you, you're not making sence :???:  :)

Doesn't the Bible say all born again Christians are a Holy Priesthood? :)

Oh no, discuss your point, I want you to so we can work this out. But you asked what I wanted to get out of this discussion, so I went for full honesty.    :)  That is what I am ultimately hoping comes from this discussion.

Munari, every born again Christian is a priest....

I want to discuss this without getting into a eucharist debate, but I don't know how to talk to a Catholic concerning the priesthood without the eucharist getting involved :P  I will come back to this when I have more time to study it in depth and figure out the best way to do this and minimize the eucharist debate.  I understand for you that is the biggest part of it, but we already have eucharist debates, so I want to keep the focus on the priesthood and all of what they do without focusing on one part to the point everything else gets lost.  I will try to find some time and get back to you :)

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
