The Mystery Of Melchizedek

Turn to the Book of Hebrews as this is where Paul talks about

Melchizedek. It is surprising that Christians know little about this one,

MELCHIZEDEK. This just shows you that very few people read the

Bible, and those that do never seem to get into the Book of Hebrews. In

fact you would be surprised how many Christians read John 3:16., and a

few other of the events that transpired in the ministry of Christ and then

set the book down and never open it again. We talked to a minister

sometime ago and when we talked about the Melchizedek ministry he

said: "What's that?".

Turn to the seventh chapter of Hebrews and we read: "For this

Melchizedek, King of Salem, Priest of THE MOST HIGH GOD, met

Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him. To

whom also Abraham gave a tenth part, first being by interpretation, King

of Righteousness and after that also King of Salem which is, King of

Peace.

What do we know about this man and the Majesty of the Priesthood that

he carried? "Without father, without mother, without descent or pedigree,

nor end of life".
