Who
Was Melchisedec?
Hebrews chapter 7 speaks of Melchisedec, Who was
King of Jerusalem in the days of Abraham, it says also that He was The Priest
of God Most High. This Melchisedec had existed from eternity—"without
father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor
end of life; but made like unto The Son Of God; abideth a priest
continually" (Heb.7:3 KJV).
Since Melchisedec was "like unto The Son Of
God," and abides as High Priest forever continually, and Jesus Christ is
now High Priest, Melchisedec and JESUS are One and the same Person.
Therefore Christ was "without father, without
mother, without descent [in Abraham's time], having neither beginning of days,
nor end of life."God also had existed eternally with The Word.
"The WORD," was an immortal being Who had
existed always—there never was a time when He did not exist—‘without beginning
of days’. He was, then, "like" The Son Of God—but He was not yet The
Son Of God. He was GOD, along with GOD.
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead gave
humanity hope of a life after death. Christ Jesus rose from the dead, and is
crowned with Honor and Glory! He is Alive—and He is Divine!
He has been glorified—and in His glorified Spirit
condition His eyes are like flames of fire, and His face shines as bright as
the very sun—full strength! (Rev.1:14-16).
