Jesus Was Melchizedek

The Twelve Apostles

Jesus Goes To Bethlehem

The Logos went to Bethlehem, and many people followed Him. He found the shepherd's home where He was cradled when He was a baby; and there He abode. He went up to the hills where more than thirty years before the shepherds watched their flocks and heard the messenger of peace (angel of God) exclaim, at midnight in a cave in Bethlehem, “The Prince of Peace is born.”

And shepherds were still there, and sheep still fed upon the hills. And in the nearby valley, great flocks of snow-white doves were flying to and fro. And when the shepherds knew that Jesus, whom the people called the king, had come, they came from near and far to speak to Him.

Jesus Acknowledges Melchizedek
And Jesus said to them,

“Behold the life of innocence and peace!
White is the symbol of the virtuous and pure!

The lamb of innocence; the dove of peace.
And it was necessary that love should come

in human form amid such scenes as these.

“Our father Abraham walked through these valleys,

and on these very hills he watched his flocks and herds.
And here it was that one,

the Prince of Peace, the king of Salim, came,

as the Christ in human form.

He was a man far greater than Abraham.

And it was here that Abraham gave to this king of Salim,

tithes of all he had.

This Prince of Peace went forth in battle everywhere.

He had no sword; no armour of defence; no weapons of offence;
And yet, He conquered humanity, and nations trembled at His feet.
The hosts of Egypt trembled before this strong and mighty king of right.

The kings of Egypt placed their crowns upon His head,
And gave into His hands the sceptre of all the lands of Egypt,

and not a drop of blood was shed,

and not a captive placed in chains.
But everywhere the conqueror threw wide the prison doors

and set the captives free.

Jesus Confirms Himself As The Ancient Melchizedek
Speaking further, Jesus said about Himself:

“And, once again, the Prince of Peace has come,

and from these blessed hills He goes again to fight.
And He is clothed in white;

His sword is truth, His shield is faith,

which is the knowledge of the truth

and abiding steadfastly in the same truth.

His helmet is innocence;

His breath is love; and His watchword is peace.
But this is not a carnal war;

it is not man at war with man.

But, it is right against the wrong.

And love is captain, love is warrior,

love is armour, love is all, and love shall win.”

And then again, the hills of Bethlehem were clothed with light, again the angel exclaimed, “Peace, peace on earth. Good will to men.” Clothed with light means that the Hosts of Angels and Saints of Heaven came and were manifest.

And Jesus taught the people; healed the sick; revealed the mysteries of the kingdom of the Holy One. And many said, “He is the Christ; the king who was to come has come; Praise God.”

6 For unto us a Child is born,

Unto us a Son is given;

And the government will be upon His shoulder.

And His name will be called

Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

7 Of the increase of His government and peace

There will be no end,

Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,

To order it and establish it with judgment and justice

From that time forward, even forever.

The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

7 Lift up your heads, O you gates!

And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!

And the King of glory shall come in.

8 Who is this King of glory?

The LORD strong and mighty,

The LORD mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, O you gates!

Lift up, you everlasting doors!

And the King of glory shall come in.

10 Who is this King of glory?

The LORD of hosts,

He is the King of glory.
