Melchizedec – Holy Spirit
270 days Bible Reading (17/7/20) – Genesis 11-16
Genesis 14: 18
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
Aronic Law which is under the Levitical priesthood cannot make one perfect.
Another priesthood after the order of Melchizedec can make one perfect.
The Melchizedec who appeared to our father Abraham in the old testament is a shadow of Holy Spirit in the new testament.
Reading the whole chapter of Hebrews chapter 7 it’s evidently explained about the order of Melchizedec.
Melchizedec is one form of the triune God that is Holy Spirit.
Hebrews 7: 3
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.
Contrasting Melchizedec to the above verse:
- He cannot be a person.
- He cannot be Father God
- He cannot be Jesus
The only option left is He is the Holy Spirit and it is perfectly evident.
If you are only under the law it always condemns you. You need to have the Holy Spirit to correct you, to sanctify you and to comfort you.
The law without Holy Spirit is literal and lifeless. (Rom 8:1-3)
We should not be under the law but under the order of Melchisedec
If Jesus is Prince of peace (Is 9:6)
Melchisedec is King of peace (Heb 7:2)
As Melchizedec comforted Abraham with bread and wine after the war, so the Holy Spirit will comfort us in our spiritual war.
We need to experience the triune God in our life.
Stay Blessed 🙂
