2:09 20.56..."all the Melchizedek you can stand " lol.
I delight in the fact that Pastor Gary knows there are others like me who are fascinated by God's incorporation of Melchizedek into the early part of His plan and giving the writer of Hebrews the genius of offsetting the Hebrews ' mental block regarding Jesus the High Priest not being from the tribe of Levi.I see a scarlet thread there linking the Old to the New Testament.

Awesome teaching! I was enjoying the thought of our compassionate high priest from Hebrews chapter 2 and 4 as well. This has blessed me greatly. God bless you, Brother!

I keep learning more and more I don't know what religion you are I want to know more but the catholic chruch doesn't teach me a lot. Im trying to learn more to look to Jesus. It's hard to explain

Hey David, I like listening to your sermons, many good insights. It would be easier for me to listen to this sermon if you pronounced the name "Melchizedek" properly. The second vowel is an "i" not an "e". Thanks!

Did anyone consider Jesus the high priest before the book of Hebrews was written? Did his family consider him the high priest?

I loved everything until you think that milk is a deck is a person milk is a deck is a title it means righteous ruler so the person who was a high priest in the order of Melchizedek means they were of not the lineage of Levi or Aaron that's why they were in the order of Melchizedek it's not a person it's a title

Hebrews 7:25 uses the greek word ENTUNCHANO, literally to 'plead' as in a pettition made to a king' ( See vines greek dict) as a consequence of his sacrifice Christ 'interceeds' on our behalf as Paul says. How then can there be a 'trinity' if this 'High priest' Jesus ( who was appointed as such by the Father, Heb 5;5) and be 'God' at the same time? It doesnt make sense

I was with you, until you went there with animal sacrifices, with no anchor into the modern day moment reality, in sane, humane treatment of animals. Sigh. If teachers must account for all their words and lessons, WHY, do Ministers and Evangelists have no accountability to their words? Are we not to believe, that your words are inspired by your relationship with our Creator. Hmmmm. I love this passage in the New Testament, but he seems to skip over the part where Jesus, the Nazarene, had to deal with his own human nature, when he asked to have his mission taken from him, before the horrors of his torture and death had begun. To know what was coming and to choose it, for us, for humans, to know that there IS a way to step out of our Human Condition and rise above it. Above the Matrix type programming, that society pushes on all God's Children, which of course, are All God's Children. Amen and Blessings, To All Who Love Their Neighbors. :)

Paul elaborates on Jesus as 'our great High preist! Since in Israel these were men chosen & appointed by God to act as INTERMEDIARIES between the people and God, Jesus then as our 'High priest' CANNOT be God himself! Especially since he EARNED this title by being OBEDIENT & being fully tested by the Father for suitability for this role! ( see Heb 4:15. 5:7, 8). Paul even stated that "No man taketh this honour UNTO HIMSELF but that is called of God as was Aaron. So ALSO CHRIST GLORIFIED NOT HIMSELF TO BE MADE AN HIGH PRIEST, but he that said unto him 'Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee'. ( Hebrews 5:4, 5)

[kiwihans]

In Israel the high priest was appointed BY God! So our 'high priest' Christ cannot BE God himself since he is our "mediator BETWEEN God & man" ( 1 Tim 2:5) "God is on oe side, and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus is, himself man, is BETWEEN them to bring them together, by giving his life for all mankind" ) ('The living bible'). No one can 'appoint God' to serve a fuction can they? NO!
