Seeking unity rather than promoting disunity (Luke 1:70-76)
As he spake by the mouth of
his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
71: That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all
that hate us;
72: To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his
holy covenant;
73: The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74: That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand
of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75: In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76: And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for
thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
10: For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and
maker is God.
71: That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72: To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73: The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74: That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75: In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76: And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
10: For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
God will use the Gentiles to opening the
eyes of the blind for salvation for all people
Isaiah 42:6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will
hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
Melchizedek the priest
This Melchizedek was king of
Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of
the kings and blessed him, and Abraham gave him a tenth of everything. First,
his name means “king of righteousness“; then also,”king of Salem” means “king of peace. Without father or mother,
without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of
God he remains a priest forever.
Jesus like Melchizedek
Hebrews 7:11-22 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood,
(for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that
another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called
after the order of Aaron?
12: For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a
change also of the law.
13: For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe,
of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14: For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe
Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
15: And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of
Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
16: Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after
the power of an endless life.
17: For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of
Melchisedec.
18: For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before
for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19: For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better
hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
20: And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
21: (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath
by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest
for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
22: By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
Jesus is the priest forever (Psalms 110:4)
1: The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit
thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2: The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in
the midst of thine enemies.
3: Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties
of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
4: The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever
after the order of Melchizedek.
The Lord has sworn and
will not change his mind: You are a priest forever.
