Description:The name Melchizedek appears eleven times in the King James Bible: once in Genesis, once in Psalms, and nine times in Hebrews (as Melchisedec). As “priest of the most high God,” Melchizedek gave Abram “bread and wine” and “blessed him” (Genesis 14:18-19). Abram then gave Melchizedek “tithes of all” the spoils (14:20). The author of Hebrews calls Melchizedek “King of righteousness” and “King of peace”: “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” (Hebrews 7:2-3). The Catholic Church has long used Melchizedek as a model for its priesthood. However, Jesus alone is “a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek” (Psalm 110:4; cf Hebrews 5:6, 7:17, 7:21). King David’s prophetic words were fulfilled in Christ, not in men ordained by men, and his “priesthood” is “unchangeable” (Hebrews 7:24). Unlike “high priests which have infirmity,” Jesus has been “consecrated for evermore” (7:28). As our great high priest, he is “holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens” (7:26). Jesus “is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them” (7:25). So why has the Catholic Church created its own priesthood? More importantly, “as a son over his own house,” Jesus is “the mediator of a better covenant” (Hebrews 3:6, 8:6). “After he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever,” Jesus “sat down on the right hand of God” (10:12). “He appeared” once in order “to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself” (9:26). Again, “Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many” (9:28), and “by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified” (10:14). Jesus doesn’t continually need “to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself” (7:27). The apostle Paul said, “If I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor” (Galatians 2:18). So what is the Catholic Church doing on its altars? Its priests act like temple Levites, yet Jesus abolished all such ritual through the cross. Since the Catholic Church is in a state of idolatry and disobedience, I suggest every Catholic read Hebrews, alongside Genesis 14 and Psalm 110, and pray that the Holy Spirit – not the Magisterium – will guide them in interpretation. Our “faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God” (1 Corinthians 2:5). The organization of this book is simple. In the chapters "Concepts," "People," and "Places," I alphabetically list each concept (e.g. sin), person (e.g. Adam), or place (e.g. Egypt) that appears in both Genesis and the New Testament. "People" is subdivided into “God” and “Humans”; "Places" into “Cities,” “Nations & Regions,” and “Rivers.” In both chapters, the spelling for each listing matches Genesis, e.g. Melchizedek. In the final chapter "Quotations," I chronologically reproduce passages in Genesis and their quotation(s) in the New Testament. All Scripture quotations are from e-Sword's King James Version (1769), with minor changes. I hope this book helps readers see the God revealed in the New Testament as the same God revealed in Genesis. Jesus Christ is “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end” (Revelation 22:13).
