Melchizedek order forever priest the only One Sublime
Letter to the Hebrews Five v- Five thru Ten
5 In the same way, it was not Christ who glorified himself in becoming high priest, but rather the one who said to him: “You are my son; this day I have begotten you”; 6 just as he says in another place: “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” 7 In the days when he was in the flesh, he offered prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. 8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered; 9 and when he was made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him, 10 declared by God high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
What does it mean to be a high priest after the order of Melchizedek? It means that there is only one Christ who is holy, blameless and unstained where His single offering of Redemption by dying and rising was perfected by the sacrifice of the Cross. This created His Perfection. This created His obedience. This created our Salvation to live Life Eternal. Only in Him can you obtain this perfection yourself without Jesus you are a wondering puppet in a society of sin. Try and capitalize every reference to Him and our Redemption and see the importance within our small amount of writing that we stress Jesus as the Only Way to Heaven forgiven Redeemed. This is the God I serve. A God of justice and forgiveness seeing all as love, faith and hope of His mercy. “When He was made Perfect, He became the Source of Eternal Salvation for all who obey Him, declared by God High Priest according to the Order of Melchizedek.” Amen.
Paragraph 1544 of the Catechist explains “Everything that the priesthood of the Old Covenant prefigured finds its fulfillment in Christ Jesus, the “one mediator between God and men.”15 The Christian tradition considers Melchizedek, “priest of God Most High,” as a prefiguration of the priesthood of Christ, the unique “high priest after the order of Melchizedek”;16 “holy, blameless, unstained,”17 “by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified,”18 that is, by the unique sacrifice of the cross.”
Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day. Lord give them peace in their last breath. Silence for the prayers of others. Holy Spirit and St Joseph CC & Holy Mother Church. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Melchizedek order forever priest the only One Sublime**
Himself glorified not the Christ Priest High
Son Mine You begotten day this The One said we can’t deny
Place another says He from the Divine
Melchizedek order forever priest the only One Sublime
Supplications and prayers offered in His flesh occupied Thine
Tears and cries loud for the One Who could hear His plea and Save Him fine
Suffering He in obedience though Son suffered in-kind
Perfectly made Salvation’s Eternal Source Him obeyed Redemption find
Melchizedek order accordingly Priest High God declared for all time
