The Melchisedec Syndrome
When we last left off of this teaching, we found out that the world is not looking for christians, they are looking for sons. The word" Christian" is to indicate "christ-like. Christ was not Jesus
last name, it was a mantle that he wore. When you are a Christian, you are at a stage where you are being taught on what Christ did. When you are a son, you go from talking about what Christ did to doing what He did. It is not enough for you to put on Jesus, In acts 4:12, there is no other name under heaven given whereby we must be saved; however in Phil 4:13, I can do all things through Christ that strengthen me. So it is not enough for you to put on Jesus, it is not enough for you to put on Christ, you must put on JESUS CHRIST! In John 3:16 God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son. Before the Cross, Jesus is referred to as the only begotton son, but after the cross, He is referred to as the first born of many brethern, why? because now you are sons, so he is no longer the "ONLY" begotten son. this is very interesting, why? Because he raised Lazerus from the dead, so why wasn't lazerus, the first born of many brethern or the first born from the dead? Well, when Lazerus died, it wasn't to save us from our sins, He died because he was sick. You know that God doen't accept and sacrifice that was blemished, spotted, infirmed[sick] or diseased[num 19:2, 28:3] so lets move on.
In Hebrews 7:1, Melchisedec was 1. King of Salem[peace] 2. Priest of the most high God, so notice that he was both King and priest, it was not separate[rev 1:6] This is the order in which the sons must follow. We are not just Kings and we are not just priest, we are both. The Kings are the one with provision[resouces,money,business,jobs,etc] The priest have the vision[purpose,goals, stand in the gap for humanity, mediator between God and manI[Ist Tim 2:5]
There is one mediator between God and man, the "MAN" Christ Jesus. so the mediator between God amd man, is the man. Flesh and blood is the mediator and the spirit is the intercessor.
In hebrews 7:3, this is the qualifications to be in that order:
1. without father and mother= the purpose of the parents is to prepare a body, but your spirit came from God[Hebrews 10:5] This is the same thing with you.
2. without descent[ this is what I believe, take it or leave it] when we are talking about descent, this is not inreference to descendants, because he just told you that he didn't have a momma or daddy, moms and dads are descendants. this is in reference to a way of thinking, let me explain; You ascend up a mountain, and descend off of it, so this has to do with a way of thinking. He is saying that "i'm not going to bring my thinking down to you, but you are going to have bring your thinking up to Me.[Isa 55:8]. This scripture[isa 55:8] is crucial to becoming a son of God. My thoughts are not your thoughts and your ways are not my ways[ watch this next part closely] for as the heavens are higher than the earth; this means He used His thoughts and your thoughts as the measuring stick between the heavens and the earth. He is saying" the more you think like you , and the less you think like Me, the further you get from heaven!
3. No beginning of days nor the end of life: this is very simple, the ability to operate outside of time[John 10:10]. The only way to do this is to walk by faith[no time] and not by sight[time]
[get some of the earlier teachings on operating outside of time, these blogs on this subject are available upon request]. This also means that if you are walking by what you can naturally see,or walking by your 5 senses, and not by faith, you are disqualified from being a son, that means you are still a slave!
4. we abide as a priest continually; You are the daysman[umpire][job 9:33] the sons are the one who carry the blessing,favor, dominion,power,honor,glory,healing,prosperity etc. We demonstrate this priesthood, not at the church building where everybody already knows who Jesus is, but in the world, on your job, at the store, in your home. You going to be the persone that the world sees the goodness of God, and that will lead them to repentance[Roman 2:4]
