Assuming Uz is Egypt, what does that matter?You do know that Melchizedek was Jesus Christ, do you not?
The world where the order of the Melchizedeks live is called Jerusum. Sometime after he left the Salem colony became became Jerusalem.Your boys from Chicago wrote that, did they?
Evidently Jerusalem didn't get the message.
And I'm glad.
Incidentally, where did Marshall Applewhite go wrong?
I have already ... now it's your turn.Was Messiah really a Canaanite king, ruling over the Jebusites for a generation or so, sometime in the distant past? Prior to being born in Bethlehem, did Jesus serve as a Jebusite king? Think about it.
LoL! My Bible is the Urantia Book, I don't make it up. It helps sort and sift what the Hebrews made up.I am not sure whether AV or Colter is more creative iwhen it comes to making up things not found in the Bible, but Colter probably wins.
I've discussed this point in other forums and am curious about the opinions here.
If we examine the fable of Eden, we discover an interesting observation. God seems to have lied, and the serpent seems to have told the truth. God told Adam and Eve: (Genesis 3:3) But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die . And the serpent responded: (Genesis 3:4) And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die . Well, as the story goes, we know they both ate the fruit, and did not die.
Following along...
Next, who is God talking to in the following: (Genesis 3:22) And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us , to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever ? Who is he addressing as us? Also, was the "tree of life" another alternate (but forbidden to humans) means of eternal life in heaven?
Opinions?
I have already ... now it's your turn.
Jesus was the king of Salem (Jerusalem), as well as the priest of the Most High God.
No man was ever allowed to serve in the capacity of both priest and king at the same time.
A man could be a prophet-priest (Samuel), or he could be a king-prophet (David).
But under no circumstances was he to be a priest-king.
That is reserved for Jesus Christ.
In fact, two men tried that, and both were IMMEDIATELY judged by God.
1 Samuel 13:8 And he [Saul] tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
9 And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.
10 And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;
12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.
14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD commanded thee.
2 Chronicles 26:16 But when he [Uzziah] was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
17 And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him fourscore priests of the LORD, that were valiant men:
18 And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the LORD God.
19 Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar.
20 And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also to go out, because the LORD had smitten him.
21 And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land.
Your post is a few verses shy of justification, isn't it?LoL! My Bible is the Urantia Book, I don't make it up.
No kidding!?The Jebusites were not Jewish.
No kidding!?
Who said they were?
The Jebusites came through Ham.
Genesis 10:15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,
Genesis 10:16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
The Jews came through Shem.

I can't.Show me the law that prohibits the Jebusites from having a priest/king.
Well, I asked, didn't I?sure
The one named Melchizedek in Abraham's time was Jesus Christ.
Hebrews 7:1 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
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.
4 Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
I think someone put something in the water in Chicago in 1955.8. DEPARTURE OF MELCHIZEDEK
Truth, they put truth in the water. It's the Bible of the future.I think someone put something in the water in Chicago in 1955.
Truth, they put truth in the water. It's the Bible of the future.
Well, I like you anyway and I like your posts.I thought that was the Book of Mormon. Another piece of nonsense of very dubious origin.
So, we are so blessed to have you lesliedellow, the official arbiter of all that is true or not.
