  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Who is Melchizedek?

I believe he was an incarnation of Christ as interpreted from Hebrews 7, but I want to get somebody else's opinion..:

Melchizedek the Priest

1 Now this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, met Abraham as he was returning from defeating the kings and blessed him.
2 To him also Abraham apportioned a tithe of everything. His name first means king of righteousness, then king of Salem, that is, king of peace.
3 Without father, without mother, without genealogy, he has neither beginning of days nor end of life but is like the son of God, and he remains a priest for all time.

Notice also that I said "who is" Melchizedek because apparently he still exist. He is a High priest of God who was mentioned briefly in Duet. Instead of Jesus taking after the priesthood of Aaron, He is to take up the priesthood of Melchizedek. What are your interpretations?

Instead of making a duplcate post, per the rules of making too many duplicates I'll leave a link to another post on the topic as to how I am catching it somewhat. (If it can add anything to your topic that is)

(post #10) is mine. Though I have noticed something else not included on that post, when he showed up to Abraham his name was yet Abram, so in a twofold kind of way before Abraham was I am (He said). Sorta cute I thought ^_^

God bless you
