Poem
Hebrews 7:1-7 Melchizedek was the king of Salem and a priest for God the Most High. He met Abraham when Abraham was coming back after defeating the kings. That day Melchizedek blessed him. Then Abraham gave him a tenth of everything he had. The name Melchizedek, king of Salem, has two meanings. First, Melchizedek means “king of justice.” And “king of Salem” means “king of peace.” No one knows who his father or mother was or where he came from. And no one knows when he was born or when he died. Melchizedek is like the Son of God in that he will always be a priest. You can see that Melchizedek was very great. Abraham, our great ancestor, gave him a tenth of everything he won in battle. Now the law says that those from the tribe of Levi who become priests must get a tenth from their own people, even though they and their people are both from the family of Abraham. Melchizedek was not even from the tribe of Levi, but Abraham gave him a tenth of what he had. And Melchizedek blessed Abraham—the one who had God’s promises. And everyone knows that the more important person always blesses the less important person. Revelation 3:12 Those who win the victory will be pillars in the temple of my God. I will make that happen for them. They will never again have to leave God’s temple. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God. That city is the new Jerusalem. It is coming down out of heaven from my God. I will also write my new name on them. The King of Salem The king of Salem, there's a thing, A brief mention of Genesis, synthesis, The King of Justice and Peace, yet also a priest, And my mind asks, did God come once before? Abraham knelt in his presence, tithing his respect, Yet the name 'Melchizedek, is one many today forget, Yet the second time around, the priest and king are found, It's history altering, really quite profound! That name history releases, the divine name, the name 'Jesus', Joshua Ben Joseph, yet not, a wealthy man who gave up all he got, Turning away from an earthly inheritance, to create one for others, His story amazing, earth shaking, rattling at our tethers! So then there's talk of a return, a new name to once again learn, A name to fly high above all of earthly mothers, The name upon the lips of babes, sisters and brothers, Come now to claim a birth right forgotten and unbegotten, Hail Melchizedek, king of Salem! @Andrew Carnegie, Theological Wiltshire, Saturday 14th Jan, 2017.
