Who Was Me1ChiSedpC?
QUESTION NO. 8.

Who is Melchizedek?
Ask for a friend by Rev. j. F.
Jordan of Midco.
This question is one, that
there is many different opinion 8
given. Some say that he was
Christ. others say il was God
Himself in figure. I
With those. two there is many !
other wrong suppositions.
Therefore having the Word OF
God as Lamp to our feet and q
ligh. to our pathway we shall
answer this question as we do
all others, by the blessed Word
and from its sacred pages, we
shall give to the questioner and
our readers the divine truth and
The real fact who Melchis adec
was.
For this reason we shall in
the first place, 20 back to the
Old Testament Scriptures to
find the first spoken o. this man
which reads;
And Melchizedek king OF
Sa.em brought forth bread and
wine; and he Was the priest OF
the most high God. nc en- l4-lo
This Is the first that we find in
the Word spoken OF Melchisedec,
And there is very little more
spoken of him, until we read
what Paul the great writer to
the Hebrews says, in language
like this:
For this Melchisedec, king Of
Salem. priest OF the most
bign God, who met Abraham
returning from the slaughter OIL
the kings, and blessed him.
TO whom also Abraham gave ths
tenth part Of all; first being oI
Interpretation King of righteous
ness, and after that also King .
Salem, which is. King of peace.
Without father, without moth
, err, without descent, having nei

We learn from this Scripture
that this man was made like tn

be could not be tie Son OF Goo
lMelchisedec was just made liz

81 For this reason it become

and how he was made. Fl

made like unto the Son of God
And now Dear Brother we
must learn just how the Son of
cod war made, in order to know
how Melchisedec was made like
unto the Son of cod. !
Well i. has been nearly 2 thou:
sand years past, by the time
given by man.
That the birth Of Jesus Christ
came in the following manner.
When az lbe Mother Mary.
was espoused to Joseph. And
before they came together, the
Mother Mary was found to be
with child by the "Eoly Ghost
as it reads...
Now tie birth of Jesus
Christ was on this wise; When
his mother Mary vas espoused
10 Joseph. before they came
together, she was found with
child of the Holy Glost.
Then Joseph her husband, be-
ing a just man, and not willing
20 make her public example,
was minded to put her away
privily.
But while be thought on these
things, behold the angel of the
Lord appeared unto him in a
dream, saying, Joseph. thou son
IF David, fear not to take unto
thee Mary thy wifea for that
which Is conceived in ger is Of
the Holy Ghost. "(Mattl-1s-1
-2O,' Z.
By this we learn that the flesh
of The Lord anu Saviour Jesus
Christ was created by the Holy
Ghost.
TIE Christ in this way wa:
made forever after The order o
Melcaisedec. /
And this same MsIchisedec
