A Study In The Life Of Abram
Abram Meets Melchizedek
Genealogies
Genesis 14:17-20, Psalm 110:4, Hebrews 5:6, 6:20, 7:1-28,
G-d has no Genealogy
Hebrews 7:3, "Without father, without mother, without descent, having
neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son
of G-d; abideth a priest continually. We have learned that "G-d is a
Spirit", Abram had a full understanding of this Truth. He possessed a
perfect understanding of Hebrew and through it the knowledge of the
creation. He was not shocked to see G-d's expression. The scripture in
Genesis 14, teaches among other things the contrast between two
personalities,
The King of Sodom and Melchizedek the king of Salem.
The King of Sodom, did not come out to meet Abram after he defeated the
Chedorlaomer and the five Kings. But Malchizedek came out to meet Abram,
Melchizedek was not indebted to Abram, nevertheless he brought out
bread and wine. Bread and wine are symbols of deliverance. The Rabbis
believe that Melchizedek is Shem the son of Noah, However the gematria
of the Hebrew words when counted reveals a code, not a real person. the
letters add up to the number 300, this translates to the Hebrew letter
Shin in Hebrew the letter Shin is one of the three mother letters in the
Hebrew Alphabet, the other two are M A Melchizedek honored Abram for his
victory, with the symbols of deliverance bread and wine as seen above.
Abram is a descendent of Shem, he preserves Shem's knowledge about
conditions before and after the flood. The scripture shows us three
individuals who received the revelation of G-d, there are others,
Abram, John the Immerser, and Peter the Shaliach. The Moshiach. is G-d
manifested in the flesh. 1 Timothy 3:16.
Remember! G-d has no genealogy, The Spirit when it dwells in man
creates a new creature, 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in
Moshiach, ( Christ ), he is a new creature: old things are passed away;
behold, all things are become new. And all things are of G-d, who hath
reconciled us to himself by Rabbi Yehoshuha, ( Jesus Christ ), and hath
given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that G-d was in
Moshiach, ( Christ ), reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing
their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of
reconciliation, (Acts 2:38). Now then we are ambassadors
( emissaries, Apostles for Christ, ( We are Apostolic ) as though
G-d did beseech you by us: we pray you in Moshiach's ( Christ's )
stead, be ye reconciled to God.
The Hebrew letter Shin is used to identify righteousness, (the
right hand). The King of Sodom came with an empty hand,
But Melchizedek came with a right hand, which contained the elements
that could refresh Abram after his victory in battle,
The early name for Jerusalem in the Targum, the Aramaic
translation of the Torah, translates it as it appears in Psalm 76:2,
where Salem is mentioned parallel with Zion as being the abode of G-d on
earth.
"In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion."
Jerusalem is the place chosen to begin the preaching of repentance
for the remission of sins, Luke 24:47.
John 4:22. "Ye worship ye know not what: we know what
we worship: for salvation is of the Jews"
Lets review:
Abram left his father's house of idols
Abram crossed over the water of the river
Abraham accepted G-d's revelation
Abram rescued Lot
Abram met Melchizedek King of Salem
Abram received a vision of a single sacrifice
Abram saw the letter shen the code in the name
Abram becomes a new creature
Abram saw the beginning and the end, Romans 4:17
Abram becomes Abraham the father of the faithful
Abraham is sent to the gentiles
Abraham's seed produces the Moshiach
John the Immerser confirms Abram's Revelation
John 1:32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit the letter
Shen descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. And I
knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize ( immerse ) with water, the
same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit ù descending, and
remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of G-d.
Peter the Apostle confirms Abram's and John's Revelation
Matthew 16:16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ,
the Son of the living G-d. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed
art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto
thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That
thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates
of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys
of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall
be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be
loosed in heaven.
The bridge, There is no time with G-d!
Romans 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many
nations,) before him whom he believed, even G-d, who quickeneth the
dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of
many nations, according to that which was spoken,
So shall thy seed be.
All the Saints confirm Abram's Revelation
1 Corinthians 12:1-3
Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you
ignorant. Ye know that ye WERE GENTILES, carried away unto these dumb
idols, even as ye were led. Wherefore I give you to understand, that no
man speaking by the Spirit of G-d (the letter Shen) calleth Yehoshuha,
(Jesus) accursed: and that no man can say that Yehoshuha, (Jesus) is the
L-rd, but by the Holy Ghost.
