Hebrews 7
Hebrews is about Jesus Christ It is about Him and how He’s greater than all
Everything in scripture points to Him and He conquered the fall
This morning we hear about a mysterious
Guy
Some ask who he is and why
Some say Shem the son of Moses while others say it was the Holy Spirit epiphone
While Others say it was the preincarnet Christ - a christophene
He was a real human theres not doubt
A type of Christ to Him psalms shout
Types they tie the old to the new
If it isnt explicit is it really real?
Adam and Jesus
Abraham Jesus
Lambs and Jesus
Melckideck Jesus
All point to Jesus Being greater
How so? Ill get to it later
In genesis Lot and abraham split their ways
Too much spoils no where to stay
Lot went to sodom even Gomorrah
Then he got captured in a battle of horror
Abraham came with a troop of three hundred
He rescued lot
met Melchizideck
He Blessed abraham in a Biblical way, blessing the Most High
He gives God the credit for the deliverance so abraham wouldnt die
The then Receives a tenth of possessions of the booty
From the loin, levi gave a tenth to him as his duty
First Melchizideck was a king
Get it through ur brain
He was a king salem
Peace shalom
A king of righteousness
Forshadowing holiness
Second this dude was a priest
Giving Abraham a feast
Kings arent priests and priests arent kings
Saul and Uzziah shows the divide
But in Melchizideck these two collide
He is a priest to God above
A type of Christs great love
Theres no peace without righteousness
No grace without holiness
Mysterious in lineage, no genealogy
A priest forever, what a typography
Was he eternal? No beginning no end
Was he from God? Peace God would send
What is the point? Intended highlight?
The point is Christ
Throw the Hebrews for a loop
You need to prove your roots
He didnt fit with the priestly system
He was set before it by Gods wisdom
He wasnt a priest come from levi
He was From Judah, he didnt die
Whats his age? Are you 25? By 30 you can be a priest
Until your 50 then your gone I dont care what is your belief
Eternality makes him resemble the Son
Priest forever the battles won
Greater view of Melki? No better view of Christ
Theres a stark contrast, a priesthood heist
Set apart put above all others
Born and lived 30 years from a virgin mother
Geneology is imperitive in the levitical priesthood
Mel doesnt start or end which makes his eternal standing good
Father abraham had many sons and many sons had father abraham
As great as he was he was still inferior to the Holy Lamb
Abraham slaughtered kings and they paid money to him
So why did Melchideck get paid when it was abraham who had the win
Abraham was less
So Melchizideck blessed
And he got ten percent
And abrahams knee was bent
Levi paid tithes from the loins of his father
Argue Mel isnt greater? Dont even bother
Canus majorus and scuty fit a bunch of suns inside
All points to Jesus in Him all things collide
Priesthood or kingship all point to Him
Desire Him dearly make your faith firm
Look to the cross peace and righteousness in it align
Look to Him as the founder His majesty sublime
