I had a pastor once that had a new fancy church, a new fancy car, and a new fancy mantion. I had no money, but in his church if you did not give when the basket was passed around, the pastor and every one in the church would stair at you until you put the only mony you had into the basket. I read the Bible, I don't go to church anymore. I tithe to homeless people not rich churches.
I went to a church like that, in the end I clicked on that they were preaching the prosperity gospel, which going by these TV Evangelists, is definitely the false gospel the Bible tells us to watch out for. There was so much wrong with its leadership too, they taught the tongues doctrine, and insisted everyone had to speak in tongues as evidence of being filled with the Holy Spirit, I was told I wasn’t spirit filled because I didn’t speak in tongues. This is a very divisive doctrine, because it’s becomes a them and us attitude and those who do speak in tongues feel superior to people like me who don’t and they claimed they didn’t treat me any differently, but I know they did. Mind you, I’ve seen a lot of videos about tongues and they say this is actually a Kundalini spirit, and I definitely saw the identical behaviour as those in the eastern religions. But, you’re definitely better off without a church like that! Good luck and God bless 🙏🙏🙏
The very fact that you observed, the fancy car, fancy church and fancy mantion should have given some indication on the orientation. But that's good you came out of there. But one thing Church is about fellowship it can be a seperate building it can also be in one's house you can refer to Philemon. Supporting the church and providing for the saints is also what we have been commanded to do. Whichever church you may go to in the future see if they are teaching from the Bible and if they have a heart for the poor and needy and their attitude towards building of its people in the scriptures.
One of the best Pastors I ever had would say exactly this from the stage, much to the initial chagrin of the elders. Any time he talked about tithing and offering, he'd point out that it wasn't about giving it to his church, it was about giving back to God, and that maybe that means you should give it to another church, or use it to care for orphans and widows, or in some other way that prayer leads you to. He also instituted systems for offering so no one could know what anyone was giving, like little envelopes to cover the cash, recurring automatic payments so a lot of people weren't even doing the envelope thing, offering boxes in the lobby and restrooms so you could give more privately, and a few other little things. When the elders have their report to the body, they said average offering compared to number in attendance was actually going up, and they were able to start new outreach programs.
Correct tithe is what you can give and it was about food in the first place not money that’s why it talks about the storehouse help the poor and the widows. And if your really going to tithe it’s 23% not ten what man made but again wasn’t about money
This is the rabonic tradition from the Targum of Jonathan. This is the western school of thought as opposed to the eastern school of thought known as the Babylonian Talmund. Genesis 14 And Malka Zadika, who was Shem bar Noah, the king of Yerushalem, came forth to meet Abram, and brought forth to him bread and wine; and in that time he ministered before Eloha Ilaha. וּמַלְכָּא צַדִיקָא הוּא שֵׁם בַּר נחַ מַלְכָּא דִירוּשְׁלֶם נָפַק לִקְדָמוּת אַבְרָם וְאַפֵּיק לֵיהּ לֶחֶם וַחֲמַר בְּהַהוּא זִימְנָא הֲוָה מְשַׁמֵשׁ קָדָם אֱלָהָא עִילָאָה This is why Melkizadeck does not have a year of death in genesis. I like how it says who was past tense Shem of Noah.
Thank you brother for continuing to edify the church or body of Christ💗 There are a many wicked people who are rising up against us proclaiming that our Bible God's holy word is racist and want it cancelled. I believe God's word to be literally true and that we are living in the last moments of this age of Grace by our faith. And that all these things that are written must soon come to pass. Amos 8:11-12 [11]Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: [12]And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it. May the peace and the blessings of the Lord be with us all. Shalom🕊✝️😇💞
his word is anything but racist,I hope those ppl find the real truth within them...The good lord is unconditional love to all mankind...😊ty for sharing
People don't realize that tithing isn't about money or compusion, its about personal worship between the individual and God. Armed with that understanding, how much of ourselves do we give to Him?
I believe it was Jesus why would he give a tenth of all to him and then he blessed and gave wine and bread to Abraham. Plus Jesus is referred to as angel of the lord all the other angles are by name. Jacob wrestling with the stranger Jesus. In the fire with the three was Jesus he’s all through the Old Testament even in the beginning what was the light before the sun and moon Jesus he’s the light of the world
@@craigcrawford6595- King Melchizedek was the preincarnation of Jesus. Edgar Cayce tells us so and l also believe he was because the Bible only names two men who were righteous - Jesus and King Melchizedek.
Yes, the two dimes of the widow was way more than what the Richman gave. Tithing was never and will never be about percentages it has always been about the heart. God sees what's in the heart, not what is in the hand. Tithing is a guiding principle, but it also shows what's in one's heart. A rich man can tithe with a contrite heart and so can a poor person give half of what he/ she earns without a second thought.
@@rogerbrady2003rab I agree and disagree. Tithing is about the heart, no question about it. Tithing is not a temporal commandment, it is spiritual and a measure of a person’s heart and desire to serve and honor God. However, tithing is about 10%+. The widow as well as the rich man can all afford to pay 10% to God. The widow’s mite was a small amount, but it was 10% for her. When I stand before God, I don’t want to say, I gave 6% for tithing and used your other 4% for me. I’m sorry, but less than 10% doesn’t show a complete devotion.
@@gordyhaycock3421 I hear what you are saying. I still have to wonder why Paul, who wrote half the books of the NT (and which explain how to live the Christian life) , never mentions anything about tithing.
@@rickkelly4111 I don’t know either. What I do know is that tithing is one of the greatest commandments given. It prepares our heart to live with God. My wife and I sit down every year to plan our giving. Right off the top of our gross income comes tithing. Then, most years we chose to give another 3 to 5% to other causes. This hasn’t always been easy to do. It has been a sacrifice for us. We have had to monitor our spending in other areas to be able to do this. I just know when I stand to be judged, giving of my resources and funds will have been one of the greatest purifiers of my heart. I would live on the streets before I would not pay God what little he has asked of us.
Let's look at this honestly: Abraham gave a tenth of the SPOILS to Melchizedek. Abraham's wealth was still up in northern Canaan. He gave a tithe of the spoils that he had no intention of keeping for himself before he went back home to his place in northern Canaan. We are never told that Abraham gathered together a tenth of his personal wealth to hand over to Melchizedek. Israel never did even mimic what Abraham did with the spoils of war, so how did Abraham invent tithing from earned wages? He didn't. This stuff John is teaching about the tithe is false teaching. The fact that Abraham returned intentionally to Sodom and returned the spoils proves he never considered those spoils to be his in the first place. Who among you would keep spoils that never did belong to you in the first place? Is that an ethic taught by Christ? No, and yet people will assume upon Abraham what the text says is not at all what he believed, as is evidenced in his actions. What a lie this tithe teaching is....
Reading the hidden books of the most high all it is is just the most high allowing me and meditate from his hidden manna nothing more nothing less and understanding who I am a Hebrew Israelite from the tribe of Judah that's the most important thing to me to understand who I am
@@efremnorwood9708 Let’s fix ALL the LIES with the ORIGINAL SEMITIC TEXT YaH The Heavenly FATHER was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
thank you so much for that explanation, no-one has ever and I've asked many pastors who was Melchizedek , no-one has ever gave me as good an answer as you have, I have a feeling that Melchizedek could have been Jesus because Jesus told the Jewish rabbi's that he knew Abram and that made them very angry. Since Jesus is also GOD that is possible
Yes, I’ve thought of this too. I’ve listened to Chuck Missler. He doesn’t say Melchizedek is Jesus, but he always says how he’s both a king and a priest and the only other reference to being a king and a priest is Jesus and those who follow Him.
This message is for the attention of Dr Barnett. About 10 to 12 years ago I studied the letter to the Hebrews. When I got to the verse where the writer said to his readers that he has so much more to tell them about Melchizedek but that they had become hard of hearing and has to be fed with with milk. I prayed and asked the Holy Spirit to explain to me what it was that the writer could not tell them. God said, go to where Abraham and Melchizedek met in the old testament. I read the whole chapter to get the background to the verse where it stated that Melchizedek brought Abraham BREAD AND WINE. These words jumped from the pages into my mind. God, was Abraham the first man whom was served Holy Communion?? A lot of questions jumped into my mind. Paul writes that also to Abraham the Gospel was told. Was it Melchizedek who told him that Yeshua would also die for his sin and that of the whole world. Dit Melchizedek told him that God would raise Yeshua from the dead. Is this the reason why Abraham was prepared to offer Isaac as n sacrifice for he believed that God can raise the dead back to life Why is Yeshua decleared by an oath that He is High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek? Peter and John declares that we are kings and priests in Gods Kingdom Kings to rule over sin in our life and priests according to the order of our High Priest. Peter concludes that we were made kings and priests to declare the virtues of our High Priest. Thank you for all your teachings. I always try to listen to all of them. There are not many around who has the insight and the ability to convey it accurate ly as you do. May God bless you in your ministry.
A couple of years ago, I was told tithing was not a New Testament requirement, the 10% was to support the Levitical priesthood. I did continue to give, but I gave it as a goodwill offering. So, as I trust this excellent teacher of God’s ways, I will start to tithe again, when I find another church as I have moved to a new area. So, thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Evidently Israeli archaeologists recently found Melchizedek's temple in the Kidron valley near the old City of David. They are calling it temple zero because it was built long before Solomon's temple. But it has the same basic format.
HERE is The Original Semitic Text, HERE is the TRUE Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Why Jesus Need to Die For Our Sins ? What Sins Did Jesus Died For ? Jesus never fully explain why He must died for Our Sins. The answers can be found in Exodus 32:7 to 32:10 and Exodus 32:35. The Sins what the People of Israel have made , the day Moses brought them out of Egypt from Bondage of Slavery and The Wrath of God's CURSE at Mount Sinai. Do All Christians really understand what the Lord speak to Moses that verses of Words ? To remove The CURSE and The SINS , Jesus must die to save All of U. Old Testament Holy Bible , Exodus 32:7 to Exodus 32:10 , King James Version , Revised Standard Version And the Lord said to Moses, " Go down ; for your people, whom you brought up out of the lands of Egypt , have corrupted themselves; they have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them; they have made for themselves a molten calf, and have worshipped it and sacrificed to it, and said, " These are your gods, O Israel , who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!' " And the Lord said to Moses, " I HAVE SEEN THIS PEOPLE and behold, IT IS A STIFF-NECKED PEOPLE ; now therefore let me alone, that MY WRATH MAY BURN HOT AGAINST THEM and I MAY CONSUME THEM; but of you I will make a great nation." Exodus 32:35 And the LORD SENT A PLAGUE UPON THE PEOPLE, because they made the calf which Aaron made.
Jesus is not Word of God and not Angel of Lord. Jesus represent His Heavenly Father , Word of God Who is Angel of Lord ? Angel Gabriel is Angel of Lord , U can find this information in New Testament , Luke 1:11 to 1:23 Jesus is Son of God , that is correct. After baptism and passed the Tests with The Devil in the Wilderness Deserts , Fasting for 40 days 40 nights. What kind of God is Jesus ? Jesus said before " I AM CHRIST " , other than Messiah So What kind of God is Jesus ?
Wow! First time I have ever heard the connection of Shem to Melchizedek, and also the tie-in to proving that the beginning was significantly fewer years away than Science (through carbon dating and other means of measurement) seems to indicate. Thank you for that knowledge!
It's true the world is not as old as science teaches but to me the 6,000 years or so is very long and I marvel at it. A pastor said Adam, given his longevity, may have been Noah's contemporary or he was nearly.
Well when god created the earth the Bible says “in the beginning” no one knows when the beginning was. The earth itself could be very old. The Bible says a thousand years as is a day to God. Before the revolution of the sun and moon God call the evening and the Morning the first day. What evening and morning? Maybe not 24 hours….
Tithing is not a new testament concept as we have no priests to accept the tithe. The tithe was not given to kings, pastors, congregations or anyone other than a priest like Melchizedek or later the sons of Aaron. Similarly, they didn't give 10% but somewhere between 25-30%. It was basically the taxation system for Israel. We don't have anything of that sort. Jesus asks Peter in Matthew 17 " From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes-from their own children or from others?” "From others" Peter answers. "Then the children are exempt," Jesus said to him. And we are the children of God and do not pay any such taxes. However, freely ye have been given, freely give.
I'm not going to argue about genealogies however there is evidence that they took out over 650 years out of the genealogies in the Hebrew Manuscript used to translate the OT in all modern bibles. In the Septuagint and the Samaritan Pentateuch those 650 years that even ancient scholars like Josephus mention were taken off these men who most lived into their hundred's before having a kid. This brought Shem forward in time whilst bringing everyone back to him so that he could live long enough to have met Abram. This was done to counteract what our brothers in Christ were saying in those days; linking Christ to Melchizedek and a higher priesthood then the Aaronic or the Levitical priesthood. I think this is one if the reasons outside of Jesus', why our brethren in Paul's and Peter's time were warned not to get involved in debates over genealogies.
Praise God that he has revealed his wisdom for you. Yes we must not get into genealogies and old wives tales. But just focus on God and his redeeming power though Jesus.
Melchizedek and Christ are one in the same before Jesus was born of Mary He had no father or mother and He had no beginning and no end and no genealogy He was not created.
Though Jesus is of the tribe of Judah, through His adopted father Joseph, who adopted Him before birth, and through His mother Mary's father, from whom He inherited His human tribal identity also, it is very likely that His genetic makeup was half from the family of the High Priest Aaron. John the Baptist was of the family of Aaron on both his mother's side and his father's side. Elizabeth was Mary's first cousin, and she was a direct descendant of Aaron. This means that Jesus was likely a direct descendant of Aaron, through Mary's mother. Jesus, genetically, may have been directly descended from the High Priest Aaron, of the tribe of Levi, as well as from King David, from whom He received His tribal identity and His Kingship. Mary appears to have been a daughter without brothers. Jesus received, therefore, her father's name and inheritance through her, from her father. The only condition being she marry within her own tribe, which she did. Jesus therefore received His Kingship from both Joseph, and through Mary, from her father. Before she married, Mary's tribal identity was of the tribe of Judah, for tribal identity is pass down from one's father. It is interesting that John the Baptist was an only son in the direct line of the High Priest Aaron, and also Jesus's first cousin once removed. If Elizabeth was a daughter who was without brothers, she may have also inherited through her her father's tribal inheritance and name. John may have inherited an Aaronic priestly title from both his father, and through his mother's father. The reason this may be possible is because it is mentioned that Elizabeth was of Aaronic lineage, as well as his father.

Elizabeth herself was of the priestly family of Aaron the Levite. Both she and her husband were well along in years when the angel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah in the Holy of the temple and announced that Elizabeth would give birth to a son who was to be called John. Upon becoming pregnant, Elizabeth kept herself secluded for five months. In the sixth month of her pregnancy she was visited by her relative Mary. On that occasion the unborn John leaped in his mother’s womb, and Elizabeth, filled with holy spirit, blessed Mary and the fruit of her womb, calling her “the mother of my Lord.”-Lu 1:5-7, 11-13, 24, 39-43. Paul uses only the King Priest function of Melchizedek to apply to Jesus. Hebrews 5:6 As he also says in another place, “You are a priest forever IN THE MANNER of Mel·chiz′e·dek.” Neither was from the Appointed Priestly line. They were appointed directly by God. Hope this helps.

This is one of my favorite explanations of Christ being around since forever.... also the beautiful way to explain why GOD would tell Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, to show / portray the sacrifice to one day come, of the Son of God / the perfect sinless lamb to sacrifice. Whose blood shed would cover sin. (As only God can forgive sin) This information of the Melchizedek mystery is one I love to share with the precious Jews, to help explain that Jesus is the Messiah and was already here. 🙏❤️
I’ve always thought Shem Jobe and Melchizedek were all the same person. It fits Jobe h in s the oldest book in the Bible. Shem was born before the flood so he out lived his great grandchildren.
Yeah , Adam didn't meet Noah but, he did meet Lamech (Noah's father).So , yeah Shem would have learned of Adam directly from those who knew Adam well Methuselah and Enoch .
Why does Paul never mention the tithe or tithing if it is so significant and important? Why do the leaders of the first church in Jerusalem never mention tithing when questioned about what the gentile believers should do?
The money wasn't dispensed equally anymore. If all men were to work the ground till death, kingdoms allowed many to work a pyramid scheme against us all. That still exists today and has worsened. I'm not excusing tithing, but the many have the least.
In new covenant we are all priests, there is no Levitical priesthood who tithing was for. That’s why we are not under old covenant requirements. We give as our heart guides and as needs arises. Not limited to any percentage.
Certainly generosity is encouraged. But this hardly means tithing is a law for everyone since Abram tithed to Melchizedek. It was only once, and from the spoils of war, not his own increase in crops or herds, and it was a common practice in that time to tithe such things to the local priest. Never in the NT are Christians told to tithe, and it was never done on money or wages/salaries. Our mandate is simply to be generous and compassionate.
I always wondered what order Jethro "the Priest of Midian" fell into. It's apparent in the Bible that he worshiped the one true God, but was not an Israelite. I always found that curious. I always wondered if there were other worshipers of the One true God scattered among the world of man at that time other than the Israelites.
Great video. Btw, the good Doctor forgot to tell us which of the three types of Melchizedeks he believes to be the most likely candidate. I listen to John Barnett daily!🤓
Melchizadek was a priest living at the time of Abraham directly appointed by Yahweh. The account does not record his genealogy meaning that there was no inheritance that was involved in his appointment. Nor does it record his death AND no mention of any descendants. These are the two ways that Jesus was a high priest according to the manner of Melchizadek. Was he Shem? Maybe, but to try to connect shem to this priest directly appointed by Yahweh detracts away from the scriptural reference. Jesus was of the tribe of Judah with direct descent from King David. He did not then qualify to be appointed a High priest according to the Aaronic Priestly lines as he did not have this genealogy. He was thus directly appointed as the High Priest by Yahweh according to the same way Melchizadek received his appointment. It is just that simple.
This is all very interesting. The one question I ponder about the book of Genesis is that it is believed that Moses wrote it. Who revealed all of this information to Moses?...and when did he have time to write these accounts while attending the work of God in Egypt and then the 40 years in the desert? I know all of Gods word is true and all our questions will be revealed one day but its a mystery to me.
research more and you will find that Ezra re wrote the 5 books of Moses after drinking a fiery liquid, along with the 70 sealed esoteric books, after the temple was destroyed. He was also the founder of the Sanhedrin and a scribe for Assurbanipal hired to acquire all ancient writings which later ended up in the library of Alexandria. I think the first tablets of Moses were written in stone by God
Book of Enoch is an apocalyptic text filled with fables and fancies. We are asked to not give heed to such fables and old wives tales. For a fan fiction reading I would say enjoy. But if it is affecting what you believe in I will say stop reading such materials.

How do we know Hebrews was written prior to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD? It seems to me, from the text, that it was written AFTER the destruction of Jerusalem because every time it talks about the temple, it's referring to the tabernacle (tent) and not the bricks and mortar temple. It seems to be purposely de-emphasizing the temple in favor of the tabernacle.

The bible is NOT for "non Jewish" people. The bible is for God's people. First, the Hebrews, then the Church. Natural Israel was circumcised, because God dealt more with the man than the woman. In the Church, in Christ, there is no male/female. But, the natural world, now, the woman is subject to the man. If she's married, to her own husband but, first to her pastor. If she be single, she subject to the pastor. Same for the man. The head of the man is Christ. And, if he be married or single, he is subject to the pastor. The bible says Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves, for they that watches for your souls, that they may give account... And oh, yes, Melchizedic was Jesus. Melchizedic was Priest of the Most High God. Isn't Jesus our High Priest to the Church?
That is correct. The Commander of the Lord's army is the Lord Jesus also in Joshua chapter 5. Joshua falls down and worships Him. Being on the mountain with Moses and the Lord he knew not to worship man.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN WHAT BIG ABOUT MELCHIZEDEK HE WAS HERE TOO HELP ABRAHAM WITH HIS TITHING & SPRITAL GUIDECE. SO THAT HIS SO PURPOSE. & THATS IT. HE WAS SALEM NOW IT'S JERUSALEM. THAT'S ALL GOD ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH HAD HIM FOR THAT. & THATS IT. ✝️ 😀
So why did Paul said that, without mother, or father, all the implication was that nobody knew him, or that he was so old that nobody knew he's relative.
The idea that Melchizedek = Shem isn't supported by the Septuagint Text ( which is the same text quoted by Jesus, Peter, Jude, indeed, all the jews living in Judea at that time). There is genealogical discrepancy that was accepted in the Masoretic Text. The ages at which Seth, Enos, and Cainan begat children disagree by a total of about 600 years. By these "corrected" figures (adopted by Judaism about 900 to 1000 AD) the Masorites enabled the Jewish leaders to deny Jesus's claim to the Priesthood- by claiming that Aaron existed in Shem/Melchezidek's loins.
Yohanan and Yahusha were both of the Order of Melchizedec thru the bloodline of Elizabeth and Mary. Both are descendants of David. Yohanan(John the Baptist) sanctified by the Ruach Ha Kodesh while in his mother's womb and also was qualified to preach the kingdom message, preparing the way for the coming Mashiach. Levitical preists are the only bloodline qualified to render the oblations and serve in the temple and disqualify both Yohanan and Yahusha. He, a Jew, was legally not obligated to keep the feasts of the Mosaic Law. If he had kept the feasts, he would have been known by most people, including the Pharisees and the Saducees. He did not even know that the one who was to come was the Mashiach, his first cousin Yahusha... They would have run into each other in the temple sooner or later, right? Not according to Luke's gospel. There is evidence that Yohanan kept the moral law. He would preach repentance and baptize until he admonished Harod Antipas and imprisoned, thus ending his ministry in CE29.
there are circles tat spk of God wanting to transfer wealth fr the hands of the ungodly to people of God so tat they can sow more into His Kingdom ..does tar make sense ?
Noah was the eighth preacher of righteousness (2Pet 2:5 WEB). Therefore his son Shem inherited the title of Melchizedek and met with Abraham according to the genealogy time-line. Here are the previous men in the messianic line who held the office: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Methuselah, then Noah the 8th person and Shem the 9th. Because of sin and God's redemption plan, He has always provided an intercessory priest -a representative man of God. This priesthood order is superior to the Levitical priesthood by bringing Righteousness beyond temporal atonement. It is eternally fulfilled by Christ after His earthly father (Joseph) died and passed it to Jesus. Jesus perfect sacrifice paid the penalty (atonement), He resurrected, and will now never die. So He holds the High Priest office forever! Psalm 110:4
God is the Lord of His word. The Lord of His word is God. Jesus is the word made manifest by God. God is His word. His word is truth. All else is deception.
Please start reading from... 1Co 9:1 this is on giving not in response to Melchizedek which is one of Noah's sons and that is why he has no recorded beginning.
There exists a very good argument that the ages of Shem, etc. are wrong, in the version we have accepted. They are too long. There is an old version that has them shorter. It is thought it was changed by Jews who saw Jesus as Melchizedek, and wanted to hide the fact, so they changed the ages to accommodate the idea that he was likely Shem, rather than Jesus.
This is the rabonic tradition from the Targum of Jonathan. This is the western school of thought as opposed to the eastern school of thought known as the Babylonian Talmund. Genesis 14 And Malka Zadika, who was Shem bar Noah, the king of Yerushalem, came forth to meet Abram, and brought forth to him bread and wine; and in that time he ministered before Eloha Ilaha. וּמַלְכָּא צַדִיקָא הוּא שֵׁם בַּר נחַ מַלְכָּא דִירוּשְׁלֶם נָפַק לִקְדָמוּת אַבְרָם וְאַפֵּיק לֵיהּ לֶחֶם וַחֲמַר בְּהַהוּא זִימְנָא הֲוָה מְשַׁמֵשׁ קָדָם אֱלָהָא עִילָאָה This is why Melkizadeck does not have a year of death in genesis. I like how it says who was past tense Shem of Noah.
Jesus came in the spirit of God (salvation, truth, grace) He was in the image of God just as Adam (man) was also. He is like God (Michael) yet never struggled with God (Israel) We are to be one in spirit of God just as Jesus is..... if you or I came in the same spirit, are we the same spirit? Do we not have our own destiny in the spirit of God?
Moses wrote the first books, so start with Leviticus. Moses received some messages there. 'Turn ye not unto idols' means 'Do not worship fantasy gods / statues.' People were still doing that. Older stories are collective memories that were handed over in spoken form, for many generations. - 'I am Alpha and Omega' means 'I am Everywhere. Not fantasy.' - 'They sacrificed unto devils' means 'Your ancestors lost their mind.' - '... ye have done it unto me' means 'When this is over ... Everything you did, you did it for me' - God is everywhere, a lot is possible, but some things have consequences. Early people made up stories. - God cannot compete well with fantasy monsters that turn people into actual monsters. God took distance. - A long time goes by. God shows up at Moses and others, to lay the foundations of Judaism and its spin-offs. - About 2000 years ago God takes full responsibility for all that happened and yet has to come. - God also promises to come back when everything is ready. Then people will understand. Leviticus 19.4 - Revelation 1.8 - Deuteronomy 32.17 - Matthew 25.40
- We are all One in the spirit of God, but our minds can be "offline" while busy with self-made spirits/goals/gods. - Destiny is the infinite future. All of time already happened "there," at the end of time, where God comes from. - God is the Father (all of the past), the Son (the infinite future), and the Holy Spirit (the eternal Now). - God is alive in Life. Everywhere and ever. God shapes His own Paradise through His own life experiences everywhere. - God always existed and always will, but God is not some horrific almighty ancient fantasy god. People made up stories like that. - God guided people into the modern world, through a long dark history. There is much more to this, but now we really can understand.
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
John MacArthur gives an 11% tithe but he gets back more than 1% of all the tithes combined, as a hireling, so subtract about 6% that plus he does not pay taxes so were getting close to zero. Randomly speaking.
So Abraham tithed once and only the spoils of war. Now if you can make that into constant tithing as being a requirement for Christians then you are playing fast and loose with scripture. Note the tithe was not the total giving of the Jews under the law either. So committing to part of the giving of the Jews is just traditions of men.
Deuteronomy 18:9-12 (KJV) "When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee" This is the problem with the current and prevalent doctrine of the modern day church. Why do you think that there is a point in time eventually reached, when "time will be counted no more," according to Scripture? We each individually must seek understanding from the Holy Ghost and get deep into the whole Word of God. There is a reason why those who forsake His law (the Old Testament/the Torah) are repeatedly scorned by God. I cannot possibly stress the importance of following up, after reading the canonized Scriptures thoroughly, by reading the apocryphal Scriptures in conjunction. In order to gain a much better understanding of canonized Scriptures that we've always had and loved. This is what is symbolized by the oil and the lamps that are carried out by the 5 virgins that were taken up to be with the Lord. The lamp symbolizes the Old Testament because it lights our path and keeps us from stumbling. While the oil symbolizes the New Testament and the anointing one receives from it. But only if you've read the Old Testament prior to it. The Lord says pride goes before destruction and I pray for the church because most have pride in being His and that pride will keep too many from humbling themselves in order to admit that they've been led astray by a false doctrine. This is THE TIME to draw near to Him by drawing near to His Almighty Living Word! I am a witness to the powerful work that He's doing right now! He is truly revealing the secrets and the mysteries to His servants RIGHT NOW! It's even been revealed to me who it was that started the deceiving doctrine that WE'VE ALL been led astray by. The symbolism paints a clear and most beautiful picture telling us His plan for us. There's no curse against Jacob (the church, America) and think of how Jacob wrestled with God until he received a blessing. I too have wrestled with Him (in the Word) and was blessed with peace beyond any explanation. I committed to telling the truth about 5 years ago and I cannot keep this truth to myself for that would be a most serious sin to the Lord. "Hide it under a bushel? No! I'm gonna let it shine!" God bless you brothers and sisters!
Ohhhh....btw He has brought the majority of the lost tribes of Israel into this beautiful land! The people that are currently in the land of Israel are those tribes that made up the southern kingdom of Israel. They rejected His Son; therefore they have rejected the Father. So why the focus and emphasis on that land? I know the importance due to the history of our belief. Which has Jewish roots. What do you think the marriage supper is all about? Us accepting the truth of our own Jewish heritage! This is the truth my brothers and sisters! So rejoice, peculiar people!
I had a pastor once that had a new fancy church, a new fancy car, and a new fancy mantion. I had no money, but in his church if you did not give when the basket was passed around, the pastor and every one in the church would stair at you until you put the only mony you had into the basket. I read the Bible, I don't go to church anymore. I tithe to homeless people not rich churches.
The organized church is subject to corruption. The best church is when you and others meet to praise God.
I went to a church like that, in the end I clicked on that they were preaching the prosperity gospel, which going by these TV Evangelists, is definitely the false gospel the Bible tells us to watch out for. There was so much wrong with its leadership too, they taught the tongues doctrine, and insisted everyone had to speak in tongues as evidence of being filled with the Holy Spirit, I was told I wasn’t spirit filled because I didn’t speak in tongues. This is a very divisive doctrine, because it’s becomes a them and us attitude and those who do speak in tongues feel superior to people like me who don’t and they claimed they didn’t treat me any differently, but I know they did. Mind you, I’ve seen a lot of videos about tongues and they say this is actually a Kundalini spirit, and I definitely saw the identical behaviour as those in the eastern religions. But, you’re definitely better off without a church like that! Good luck and God bless 🙏🙏🙏
The very fact that you observed, the fancy car, fancy church and fancy mantion should have given some indication on the orientation. But that's good you came out of there. But one thing Church is about fellowship it can be a seperate building it can also be in one's house you can refer to Philemon. Supporting the church and providing for the saints is also what we have been commanded to do. Whichever church you may go to in the future see if they are teaching from the Bible and if they have a heart for the poor and needy and their attitude towards building of its people in the scriptures.
One of the best Pastors I ever had would say exactly this from the stage, much to the initial chagrin of the elders. Any time he talked about tithing and offering, he'd point out that it wasn't about giving it to his church, it was about giving back to God, and that maybe that means you should give it to another church, or use it to care for orphans and widows, or in some other way that prayer leads you to. He also instituted systems for offering so no one could know what anyone was giving, like little envelopes to cover the cash, recurring automatic payments so a lot of people weren't even doing the envelope thing, offering boxes in the lobby and restrooms so you could give more privately, and a few other little things. When the elders have their report to the body, they said average offering compared to number in attendance was actually going up, and they were able to start new outreach programs.
Correct tithe is what you can give and it was about food in the first place not money that’s why it talks about the storehouse help the poor and the widows. And if your really going to tithe it’s 23% not ten what man made but again wasn’t about money
The Lord God, always keeps his word and doesn't change. Amen
Absolutely a truth that few can conceive yet it is in Gods Word.
AMEN/TRUE
This is the rabonic tradition from the Targum of Jonathan. This is the western school of thought as opposed to the eastern school of thought known as the Babylonian Talmund.
Genesis 14
And Malka Zadika, who was Shem bar Noah, the king of Yerushalem, came forth to meet Abram, and brought forth to him bread and wine; and in that time he ministered before Eloha Ilaha.

This is why Melkizadeck does not have a year of death in genesis. I like how it says who was past tense Shem of Noah.
Thank you brother for continuing to edify the church or body of Christ💗 There are a many wicked people who are rising up against us proclaiming that our Bible God's holy word is racist and want it cancelled. I believe God's word to be literally true and that we are living in the last moments of this age of Grace by our faith. And that all these things that are written must soon come to pass.
Amos 8:11-12
[11]Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
[12]And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.
May the peace and the blessings of the Lord be with us all. Shalom🕊✝️😇💞

I so appreciate your Bible teachings, Pastor John.
Thank you everyone for your prayers,I will also continue to pray for all my family in the Lord God bless you all everyone.
People don't realize that tithing isn't about money or compusion, its about personal worship between the individual and God. Armed with that understanding, how much of ourselves do we give to Him?
Never enough... Nor could we...
It’s was about food for the poor that’s why it talks about the storehouse and doing good because of Jesus out of your heart
@@TATERPOO or rather, despite our heart...
Yes. I have always been curious. The more we gave to God... the richer the minister got. It must have been a miracle! 😆
I believe it was Jesus why would he give a tenth of all to him and then he blessed and gave wine and bread to Abraham. Plus Jesus is referred to as angel of the lord all the other angles are by name. Jacob wrestling with the stranger Jesus. In the fire with the three was Jesus he’s all through the Old Testament even in the beginning what was the light before the sun and moon Jesus he’s the light of the world
Edgar Cayse also said he was Jesus.
I do as well but ,the evidence pointing to Shem is compelling.Alexander Hislop produced a ton of evidence that puts Shem as Melchisedec.
Why would Christ need a tenth of everything from Abraham?
@@jaykay1934 Your point?
@@craigcrawford6595- King Melchizedek was the preincarnation of Jesus. Edgar Cayce tells us so and l also believe he was because the Bible only names two men who were righteous - Jesus and King Melchizedek.

Tithing!.. Paul says otherwise, give any amount with a cheerful heart.
Yes, the two dimes of the widow was way more than what the Richman gave. Tithing was never and will never be about percentages it has always been about the heart. God sees what's in the heart, not what is in the hand. Tithing is a guiding principle, but it also shows what's in one's heart. A rich man can tithe with a contrite heart and so can a poor person give half of what he/ she earns without a second thought.
@@rogerbrady2003rab agreed. Thanks
@@rogerbrady2003rab I agree and disagree. Tithing is about the heart, no question about it. Tithing is not a temporal commandment, it is spiritual and a measure of a person’s heart and desire to serve and honor God. However, tithing is about 10%+. The widow as well as the rich man can all afford to pay 10% to God. The widow’s mite was a small amount, but it was 10% for her. When I stand before God, I don’t want to say, I gave 6% for tithing and used your other 4% for me. I’m sorry, but less than 10% doesn’t show a complete devotion.
@@gordyhaycock3421 I hear what you are saying. I still have to wonder why Paul, who wrote half the books of the NT (and which explain how to live the Christian life) , never mentions anything about tithing.
@@rickkelly4111 I don’t know either. What I do know is that tithing is one of the greatest commandments given. It prepares our heart to live with God. My wife and I sit down every year to plan our giving. Right off the top of our gross income comes tithing. Then, most years we chose to give another 3 to 5% to other causes. This hasn’t always been easy to do. It has been a sacrifice for us. We have had to monitor our spending in other areas to be able to do this. I just know when I stand to be judged, giving of my resources and funds will have been one of the greatest purifiers of my heart. I would live on the streets before I would not pay God what little he has asked of us.

Let's look at this honestly: Abraham gave a tenth of the SPOILS to Melchizedek. Abraham's wealth was still up in northern Canaan. He gave a tithe of the spoils that he had no intention of keeping for himself before he went back home to his place in northern Canaan. We are never told that Abraham gathered together a tenth of his personal wealth to hand over to Melchizedek. Israel never did even mimic what Abraham did with the spoils of war, so how did Abraham invent tithing from earned wages? He didn't. This stuff John is teaching about the tithe is false teaching. The fact that Abraham returned intentionally to Sodom and returned the spoils proves he never considered those spoils to be his in the first place. Who among you would keep spoils that never did belong to you in the first place? Is that an ethic taught by Christ? No, and yet people will assume upon Abraham what the text says is not at all what he believed, as is evidenced in his actions. What a lie this tithe teaching is....
tithing is Good its just 10 percent .not 20 or 30 percent.
@@glaze4296 The problem are all the tithe teachers out there who teach that as a requirement upon us today. That's a false teaching.
Reading the hidden books of the most high all it is is just the most high allowing me and meditate from his hidden manna nothing more nothing less and understanding who I am a Hebrew Israelite from the tribe of Judah that's the most important thing to me to understand who I am

He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
thank you so much for that explanation, no-one has ever and I've asked many pastors who was Melchizedek , no-one has ever gave me as good an answer as you have, I have a feeling that Melchizedek could have been Jesus because Jesus told the Jewish rabbi's that he knew Abram and that made them very angry. Since Jesus is also GOD that is possible
Yes, I’ve thought of this too. I’ve listened to Chuck Missler. He doesn’t say Melchizedek is Jesus, but he always says how he’s both a king and a priest and the only other reference to being a king and a priest is Jesus and those who follow Him.
Jesus said, “Before Abraham was, I AM”. Jesus would of course know Abraham just like He knows every one of us too, because He created us.
@@AstariahJW John 8:58 - Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
This message is for the attention of Dr Barnett.
About 10 to 12 years ago I studied the letter to the Hebrews. When I got to the verse where the writer said to his readers that he has so much more to tell them about Melchizedek but that they had become hard of hearing and has to be fed with with milk. I prayed and asked the Holy Spirit to explain to me what it was that the writer could not tell them. God said, go to where Abraham and Melchizedek met in the old testament. I read the whole chapter to get the background to the verse where it stated that Melchizedek brought Abraham BREAD AND WINE. These words jumped from the pages into my mind. God, was Abraham the first man whom was served Holy Communion??
A lot of questions jumped into my mind.
Paul writes that also to Abraham the Gospel was told. Was it Melchizedek who told him that Yeshua would also die for his sin and that of the whole world. Dit Melchizedek told him that God would raise Yeshua from the dead. Is this the reason why Abraham was prepared to offer Isaac as n sacrifice for he believed that God can raise the dead back to life Why is Yeshua decleared by an oath that He is High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek? Peter and John declares that we are kings and priests in Gods Kingdom Kings to rule over sin in our life and priests according to the order of our High Priest. Peter concludes that we were made kings and priests to declare the virtues of our High Priest.
Thank you for all your teachings. I always try to listen to all of them. There are not many around who has the insight and the ability to convey it accurate ly as you do. May God bless you in your ministry.
A couple of years ago, I was told tithing was not a New Testament requirement, the 10% was to support the Levitical priesthood. I did continue to give, but I gave it as a goodwill offering. So, as I trust this excellent teacher of God’s ways, I will start to tithe again, when I find another church as I have moved to a new area. So, thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Don’t trust false prophets
False prophet is anything against god and his word not just people. Like science that’s a false

Why Jesus Need to Die For Our Sins ? What Sins Did Jesus Died For ?
Jesus never fully explain why He must died for Our Sins.
The answers can be found in Exodus 32:7 to 32:10 and Exodus 32:35.
The Sins what the People of Israel have made , the day Moses brought them out of Egypt from Bondage of Slavery and The Wrath of God's CURSE at Mount Sinai.
Do All Christians really understand what the Lord speak to Moses that verses of Words ?
To remove The CURSE and The SINS , Jesus must die to save All of U.
Old Testament Holy Bible , Exodus 32:7 to Exodus 32:10
, King James Version , Revised Standard Version
And the Lord said to Moses, " Go down ; for your people, whom you brought up out of the lands of Egypt ,
have corrupted themselves; they have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them;
they have made for themselves a molten calf, and
have worshipped it and sacrificed to it,
and said, " These are your gods, O Israel , who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!' "
And the Lord said to Moses, " I HAVE SEEN THIS PEOPLE and behold, IT IS A STIFF-NECKED PEOPLE ;
now therefore let me alone, that MY WRATH MAY BURN HOT AGAINST THEM and
I MAY CONSUME THEM;
but of you I will make a great nation."
Exodus 32:35
And the LORD SENT A PLAGUE UPON THE PEOPLE, because they made the calf which Aaron made.
Jesus is not Word of God and not Angel of Lord.
Jesus represent His Heavenly Father , Word of God
Who is Angel of Lord ?
Angel Gabriel is Angel of Lord , U can find this information in New Testament , Luke 1:11 to 1:23
Jesus is Son of God , that is correct.
After baptism and passed the Tests with The Devil in the Wilderness Deserts , Fasting for 40 days 40 nights.
What kind of God is Jesus ?
Jesus said before " I AM CHRIST " , other than Messiah
So What kind of God is Jesus ?
Wow! First time I have ever heard the connection of Shem to Melchizedek, and also the tie-in to proving that the beginning was significantly fewer years away than Science (through carbon dating and other means of measurement) seems to indicate. Thank you for that knowledge!
It's true the world is not as old as science teaches but to me the 6,000 years or so is very long and I marvel at it.
A pastor said Adam, given his longevity, may have been Noah's contemporary or he was nearly.
Well when god created the earth the Bible says “in the beginning” no one knows when the beginning was.
The earth itself could be very old.
The Bible says a thousand years as is a day to God.
Before the revolution of the sun and moon God call the evening and the Morning the first day.
What evening and morning?
Maybe not 24 hours….

Tithing is not a new testament concept as we have no priests to accept the tithe. The tithe was not given to kings, pastors, congregations or anyone other than a priest like Melchizedek or later the sons of Aaron. Similarly, they didn't give 10% but somewhere between 25-30%. It was basically the taxation system for Israel. We don't have anything of that sort. Jesus asks Peter in Matthew 17 " From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes-from their own children or from others?” "From others" Peter answers. "Then the children are exempt," Jesus said to him. And we are the children of God and do not pay any such taxes. However, freely ye have been given, freely give.
John thank you so much for taking your time to teach me such great material. Love your vids.
Brother Jessie Higgins always said,you can’t out give God. I agree He has given me much more than I give to Him.
I'm not going to argue about genealogies however there is evidence that they took out over 650 years out of the genealogies in the Hebrew Manuscript used to translate the OT in all modern bibles. In the Septuagint and the Samaritan Pentateuch those 650 years that even ancient scholars like Josephus mention were taken off these men who most lived into their hundred's before having a kid. This brought Shem forward in time whilst bringing everyone back to him so that he could live long enough to have met Abram. This was done to counteract what our brothers in Christ were saying in those days; linking Christ to Melchizedek and a higher priesthood then the Aaronic or the Levitical priesthood.
I think this is one if the reasons outside of Jesus', why our brethren in Paul's and Peter's time were warned not to get involved in debates over genealogies.
Praise God that he has revealed his wisdom for you. Yes we must not get into genealogies and old wives tales. But just focus on God and his redeeming power though Jesus.
What bad all the sons of Abraham.there decidents were eviel,and nephew lot decidents hate Israiel even to day.

Melchizedek was a Priest king. Jesus is likened to him. Both were appointed by God. Neither were from priestly lines.
Though Jesus is of the tribe of Judah, through His adopted father Joseph, who adopted Him before birth, and through His mother Mary's father, from whom He inherited His human tribal identity also, it is very likely that His genetic makeup was half from the family of the High Priest Aaron. John the Baptist was of the family of Aaron on both his mother's side and his father's side. Elizabeth was Mary's first cousin, and she was a direct descendant of Aaron. This means that Jesus was likely a direct descendant of Aaron, through Mary's mother.
Jesus, genetically, may have been directly descended from the High Priest Aaron, of the tribe of Levi, as well as from King David, from whom He received His tribal identity and His Kingship.
Mary appears to have been a daughter without brothers. Jesus received, therefore, her father's name and inheritance through her, from her father. The only condition being she marry within her own tribe, which she did.
Jesus therefore received His Kingship from both Joseph, and through Mary, from her father.
Before she married, Mary's tribal identity was of the tribe of Judah, for tribal identity is pass down from one's father.
It is interesting that John the Baptist was an only son in the direct line of the High Priest Aaron, and also Jesus's first cousin once removed.
If Elizabeth was a daughter who was without brothers, she may have also inherited through her her father's tribal inheritance and name. John may have inherited an Aaronic priestly title from both his father, and through his mother's father. The reason this may be possible is because it is mentioned that Elizabeth was of Aaronic lineage, as well as his father.

The God-fearing wife of the priest Zechariah and the mother of John the Baptizer. Elizabeth herself was of the priestly family of Aaron the Levite. Both she and her husband were well along in years when the angel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah in the Holy of the temple and announced that Elizabeth would give birth to a son who was to be called John. Upon becoming pregnant, Elizabeth kept herself secluded for five months. In the sixth month of her pregnancy she was visited by her relative Mary. On that occasion the unborn John leaped in his mother’s womb, and Elizabeth, filled with holy spirit, blessed Mary and the fruit of her womb, calling her “the mother of my Lord.”-Lu 1:5-7, 11-13, 24, 39-43.
Paul uses only the King Priest function of Melchizedek to apply to Jesus.
Hebrews 5:6 As he also says in another place, “You are a priest forever IN THE MANNER of Mel·chiz′e·dek.”
Neither was from the Appointed Priestly line. They were appointed directly by God.
Hope this helps.

This is one of my favorite explanations of Christ being around since forever.... also the beautiful way to explain why GOD would tell Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, to show / portray the sacrifice to one day come, of the Son of God / the perfect sinless lamb to sacrifice. Whose blood shed would cover sin.

In the book of Jasher 16:11 Melchizedek is SHEM .. u should remember that. And Abraham didn’t invent tithing, he learned it in the house of Noah.

I’ve always thought Shem Jobe and Melchizedek were all the same person.
It fits Jobe h in s the oldest book in the Bible. Shem was born before the flood so he out lived his great grandchildren.
I've previously heard the Shem theory and the Christ notion but, never thought of or heard the Job theory.
Yeah , Adam didn't meet Noah but, he did meet Lamech (Noah's father).So , yeah Shem would have learned of Adam directly from those who knew Adam well Methuselah and Enoch .
The book that he is referencing is After The Flood, by Bill Cooper.
Thank you.
Is that the same Bill Cooper who authored " Behold A Pale Horse"?
Why does Paul never mention the tithe or tithing if it is so significant and important? Why do the leaders of the first church in Jerusalem never mention tithing when questioned about what the gentile believers should do?
The money wasn't dispensed equally anymore. If all men were to work the ground till death, kingdoms allowed many to work a pyramid scheme against us all. That still exists today and has worsened. I'm not excusing tithing, but the many have the least.
In new covenant we are all priests, there is no Levitical priesthood who tithing was for. That’s why we are not under old covenant requirements. We give as our heart guides and as needs arises. Not limited to any percentage.
Certainly generosity is encouraged. But this hardly means tithing is a law for everyone since Abram tithed to Melchizedek. It was only once, and from the spoils of war, not his own increase in crops or herds, and it was a common practice in that time to tithe such things to the local priest. Never in the NT are Christians told to tithe, and it was never done on money or wages/salaries. Our mandate is simply to be generous and compassionate.
I always wondered what order Jethro "the Priest of Midian" fell into. It's apparent in the Bible that he worshiped the one true God, but was not an Israelite. I always found that curious. I always wondered if there were other worshipers of the One true God scattered among the world of man at that time other than the Israelites.
Very interesting!
Great video. Btw, the good Doctor forgot to tell us which of the three types of Melchizedeks he believes to be the most likely candidate. I listen to John Barnett daily!🤓
I think he was indicating he favored the 3rd option.
Excellent teaching! Thank you!!
Melchizadek was a priest living at the time of Abraham directly appointed by Yahweh. The account does not record his genealogy meaning that there was no inheritance that was involved in his appointment. Nor does it record his death AND no mention of any descendants. These are the two ways that Jesus was a high priest according to the manner of Melchizadek. Was he Shem? Maybe, but to try to connect shem to this priest directly appointed by Yahweh detracts away from the scriptural reference.
Jesus was of the tribe of Judah with direct descent from King David. He did not then qualify to be appointed a High priest according to the Aaronic Priestly lines as he did not have this genealogy. He was thus directly appointed as the High Priest by Yahweh according to the same way Melchizadek received his appointment. It is just that simple.
IMPRESSIVE
Thank you
Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
This is all very interesting. The one question I ponder about the book of Genesis is that it is believed that Moses wrote it. Who revealed all of this information to Moses?...and when did he have time to write these accounts while attending the work of God in Egypt and then the 40 years in the desert? I know all of Gods word is true and all our questions will be revealed one day but its a mystery to me.
I would think that 40 years would be enough time to write the first 5 books of the bible. As to who told him what to write ---- that would be God.
research more and you will find that Ezra re wrote the 5 books of Moses after drinking a fiery liquid, along with the 70 sealed esoteric books, after the temple was destroyed. He was also the founder of the Sanhedrin and a scribe for Assurbanipal hired to acquire all ancient writings which later ended up in the library of Alexandria. I think the first tablets of Moses were written in stone by God
Amen Jesus Christ Hallelujah
And if you're blessed to study the second Book of Enoch you'll learn more about the birth of Melchizedek the miracle birth
I believe that Melchizedek is an Angelic being with flesh on him.
Book of Enoch is an apocalyptic text filled with fables and fancies. We are asked to not give heed to such fables and old wives tales. For a fan fiction reading I would say enjoy. But if it is affecting what you believe in I will say stop reading such materials.
@@rogerbrady2003rab Then why is it quoted in every cannon Bible? If it were a fable. Why would God include it in our Bible?
@@isaiahmcallister3883 I believe those books contained some truths, but were not Holy Spirit inspired and therefore left out. Satan and his army love using a bit of truth to mask deception.
We have no legit reason to stray from the cannon, and if something contradicts that word I'll believe the KJV Bible everytime.🙏
@@dougmcguire3159 God would not quote a demonically inspired book. It couldn’t have been included because it was a historical document at the time. That’s what I’ve seen. In context it doesn't speak about many things the cannon talks about. Such as sin, traditions, laws.
How do we know Hebrews was written prior to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD? It seems to me, from the text, that it was written AFTER the destruction of Jerusalem because every time it talks about the temple, it's referring to the tabernacle (tent) and not the bricks and mortar temple. It seems to be purposely de-emphasizing the temple in favor of the tabernacle.
Hi Dr. Barnett, I really like your videos but I wondered about the use of ads, if you had any control of the content of ads that are shown in your videos? I think I'm concerned with the content shown, some are very obvious against the word of God. Just a little concerned. Of no one else is then I won't be either, since usually I can pass the ads after 5 seconds.
What he says about Balim wanting to die the death of the righteous reminded me of Ravi Zacharias
Is he or was he to be compared to Balim?
@@matthewturbett6766 if I understood correctly then I think he is, Ravi gave lip service to God, but his heart was far from it
@@7secondstiltheend160 So now you are God, able to judge the hearts of humans. What a gift!!!!
@@matthewturbett6766 yip it's a gift to be able to say that someone preaches about God then rapes women in secret. See not know why you taking it so offensively!!!!! It's my opinion, you don't have to appine if you don't like what I say.
@@matthewturbett6766 and I never said I was God. Once again my opinion.
Ok so that's interesting about Balaam. What you're saying is that no one is saved by faith alone.
Interesting
great
The bible is NOT for "non Jewish" people. The bible is for God's people. First, the Hebrews, then the Church. Natural Israel was circumcised, because God dealt more with the man than the woman. In the Church, in Christ, there is no male/female. But, the natural world, now, the woman is subject to the man. If she's married, to her own husband but, first to her pastor. If she be single, she subject to the pastor. Same for the man. The head of the man is Christ. And, if he be married or single, he is subject to the pastor. The bible says Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves, for they that watches for your souls, that they may give account...
And oh, yes, Melchizedic was Jesus. Melchizedic was Priest of the Most High God. Isn't Jesus our High Priest to the Church?
Exactly What My Uncle Said, and I Never Doubt What He Said, He Knew His Bible and Had God Given Wisdom. 🙏
He was the Word, before he became Jesus. He is also the angel of the Lord all through the old testament.
That is correct. The Commander of the Lord's army is the Lord Jesus also in Joshua chapter 5. Joshua falls down and worships Him. Being on the mountain with Moses and the Lord he knew not to worship man.
Fascinating. Thanks
Japheth lived in Jappa? That’s the closest city near Jerusalem, correct? I was learning about the Crusaders and how somebody wanted to stay near Jappa
Can someone kindly point me to the full video of this teaching? It would help me a lot. Thank you.
An advertisement every two to three minutes is RIDICULOUS! I'll find teaching some where else!
I HAVE NEVER SEEN WHAT BIG ABOUT MELCHIZEDEK HE
WAS HERE TOO HELP ABRAHAM WITH HIS TITHING & SPRITAL GUIDECE.
SO THAT HIS SO PURPOSE. &
THATS IT. HE WAS SALEM
NOW IT'S JERUSALEM. THAT'S ALL GOD ALMIGHTY
JEHOVAH HAD HIM FOR THAT. & THATS IT. ✝️ 😀
So why did Paul said that, without mother, or father, all the implication was that nobody knew him, or that he was so old that nobody knew he's relative.
The idea that Melchizedek = Shem isn't supported by the Septuagint Text ( which is the same text quoted by Jesus, Peter, Jude, indeed, all the jews living in Judea at that time). There is genealogical discrepancy that was accepted in the Masoretic Text. The ages at which Seth, Enos, and Cainan begat children disagree by a total of about 600 years. By these "corrected" figures (adopted by Judaism about 900 to 1000 AD) the Masorites enabled the Jewish leaders to deny Jesus's claim to the Priesthood- by claiming that Aaron existed in Shem/Melchezidek's loins.
That's a great lesson .
Yohanan and Yahusha were both of the Order of Melchizedec thru the bloodline of Elizabeth and Mary. Both are descendants of David. Yohanan(John the Baptist) sanctified by the Ruach Ha Kodesh while in his mother's womb and also was qualified to preach the kingdom message, preparing the way for the coming Mashiach. Levitical preists are the only bloodline qualified to render the oblations and serve in the temple and disqualify both Yohanan and Yahusha.
He, a Jew, was legally not obligated to keep the feasts of the Mosaic Law. If he had kept the feasts, he would have been known by most people, including the Pharisees and the Saducees. He did not even know that the one who was to come was the Mashiach, his first cousin Yahusha... They would have run into each other in the temple sooner or later, right? Not according to Luke's gospel.
There is evidence that Yohanan kept the moral law. He would preach repentance and baptize until he admonished Harod Antipas and imprisoned, thus ending his ministry in CE29.
Bill Cooper wrote After the Flood, but I can't get my Amazon acct to work right in order to buy it!
Mosaic or under the laws was it made some mandatory law like tithing. This Priesthood predates Moses and the law
I have a question, you mentioned tithing in this, I thought tithing was old testiment?
there are circles tat spk of God wanting to transfer wealth fr the hands of the ungodly to people of God so tat they can sow more into His Kingdom ..does tar make sense ?
I aways thought it was Jesus just like in Sodom and gamora the three angels one was the lord just mt thought im still finishing the video.
Noah was the eighth preacher of righteousness (2Pet 2:5 WEB). Therefore his son Shem inherited the title of Melchizedek and met with Abraham according to the genealogy time-line.
Here are the previous men in the messianic line who held the office: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Methuselah, then Noah the 8th person and Shem the 9th.
Because of sin and God's redemption plan, He has always provided an intercessory priest -a representative man of God. This priesthood order is superior to the Levitical priesthood by bringing Righteousness beyond temporal atonement. It is eternally fulfilled by Christ after His earthly father (Joseph) died and passed it to Jesus.
Jesus perfect sacrifice paid the penalty (atonement), He resurrected, and will now never die. So He holds the High Priest office forever! Psalm 110:4
God is the Lord of His word.
The Lord of His word is God.
Jesus is the word made manifest by God.
God is His word.
His word is truth.
All else is deception.
Concerning Shem I think you may have the chronology ?
Please start reading from... 1Co 9:1 this is on giving not in response to Melchizedek which is one of Noah's sons and that is why he has no recorded beginning.
Tithing is not in the new testament...tithing was food, in the old testament
A MYSTERY THAT WAS NOT RECORDED REMAINS A MYSTERY
Bill Cooper
Bill Cooper wrote the book I believe.
There exists a very good argument that the ages of Shem, etc. are wrong, in the version we have accepted. They are too long.
There is an old version that has them shorter.
It is thought it was changed by Jews who saw Jesus as Melchizedek, and wanted to hide the fact, so they changed the ages to accommodate the idea that he was likely Shem, rather than Jesus.
Problem with tithing is the crooks who show the World there boats cars mantions
As a role model for the Aaron priesthood?
This is the rabonic tradition from the Targum of Jonathan. This is the western school of thought as opposed to the eastern school of thought known as the Babylonian Talmund.
Genesis 14
And Malka Zadika, who was Shem bar Noah, the king of Yerushalem, came forth to meet Abram, and brought forth to him bread and wine; and in that time he ministered before Eloha Ilaha.
וּמַלְכָּא צַדִיקָא הוּא שֵׁם בַּר נחַ מַלְכָּא דִירוּשְׁלֶם נָפַק לִקְדָמוּת אַבְרָם וְאַפֵּיק לֵיהּ לֶחֶם וַחֲמַר בְּהַהוּא זִימְנָא הֲוָה מְשַׁמֵשׁ קָדָם
אֱלָהָא עִילָאָה
This is why Melkizadeck does not have a year of death in genesis. I like how it says who was past tense Shem of Noah.
Everyone here is you in a different cubic dimension of space time 🗝
Exodus 3:14
Jesus came in the spirit of God (salvation, truth, grace) He was in the image of God just as Adam (man) was also. He is like God (Michael) yet never struggled with God (Israel)
We are to be one in spirit of God just as Jesus is..... if you or I came in the same spirit, are we the same spirit? Do we not have our own destiny in the spirit of God?
Moses wrote the first books, so start with Leviticus. Moses received some messages there.
'Turn ye not unto idols' means 'Do not worship fantasy gods / statues.' People were still doing that.
Older stories are collective memories that were handed over in spoken form, for many generations.
- 'I am Alpha and Omega' means 'I am Everywhere. Not fantasy.'
- 'They sacrificed unto devils' means 'Your ancestors lost their mind.'
- '... ye have done it unto me' means 'When this is over ... Everything you did, you did it for me'
- God is everywhere, a lot is possible, but some things have consequences. Early people made up stories.
- God cannot compete well with fantasy monsters that turn people into actual monsters. God took distance.
- A long time goes by. God shows up at Moses and others, to lay the foundations of Judaism and its spin-offs.
- About 2000 years ago God takes full responsibility for all that happened and yet has to come.
- God also promises to come back when everything is ready. Then people will understand.
Leviticus 19.4 - Revelation 1.8 - Deuteronomy 32.17 - Matthew 25.40
- We are all One in the spirit of God, but our minds can be "offline" while busy with self-made spirits/goals/gods.
- Destiny is the infinite future. All of time already happened "there," at the end of time, where God comes from.
- God is the Father (all of the past), the Son (the infinite future), and the Holy Spirit (the eternal Now).
- God is alive in Life. Everywhere and ever. God shapes His own Paradise through His own life experiences everywhere.
- God always existed and always will, but God is not some horrific almighty ancient fantasy god. People made up stories like that.
- God guided people into the modern world, through a long dark history. There is much more to this, but now we really can understand.
AMEN
He is in there more then you know
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
John MacArthur gives an 11% tithe but he gets back more than 1% of all the tithes combined, as a hireling, so subtract about 6% that plus he does not pay taxes so were getting close to zero. Randomly speaking.
So Abraham tithed once and only the spoils of war. Now if you can make that into constant tithing as being a requirement for Christians then you are playing fast and loose with scripture. Note the tithe was not the total giving of the Jews under the law either. So committing to part of the giving of the Jews is just traditions of men.
How is living 400 years a more basic life span? I thought 120 years was basic?
Deuteronomy 18:9-12 (KJV) "When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,
Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee"
This is the problem with the current and prevalent doctrine of the modern day church. Why do you think that there is a point in time eventually reached, when "time will be counted no more," according to Scripture? We each individually must seek understanding from the Holy Ghost and get deep into the whole Word of God. There is a reason why those who forsake His law (the Old Testament/the Torah) are repeatedly scorned by God. I cannot possibly stress the importance of following up, after reading the canonized Scriptures thoroughly, by reading the apocryphal Scriptures in conjunction. In order to gain a much better understanding of canonized Scriptures that we've always had and loved. This is what is symbolized by the oil and the lamps that are carried out by the 5 virgins that were taken up to be with the Lord. The lamp symbolizes the Old Testament because it lights our path and keeps us from stumbling. While the oil symbolizes the New Testament and the anointing one receives from it. But only if you've read the Old Testament prior to it. The Lord says pride goes before destruction and I pray for the church because most have pride in being His and that pride will keep too many from humbling themselves in order to admit that they've been led astray by a false doctrine. This is THE TIME to draw near to Him by drawing near to His Almighty Living Word! I am a witness to the powerful work that He's doing right now! He is truly revealing the secrets and the mysteries to His servants RIGHT NOW! It's even been revealed to me who it was that started the deceiving doctrine that WE'VE ALL been led astray by. The symbolism paints a clear and most beautiful picture telling us His plan for us. There's no curse against Jacob (the church, America) and think of how Jacob wrestled with God until he received a blessing. I too have wrestled with Him (in the Word) and was blessed with peace beyond any explanation. I committed to telling the truth about 5 years ago and I cannot keep this truth to myself for that would be a most serious sin to the Lord. "Hide it under a bushel? No! I'm gonna let it shine!" God bless you brothers and sisters!
Ohhhh....btw He has brought the majority of the lost tribes of Israel into this beautiful land! The people that are currently in the land of Israel are those tribes that made up the southern kingdom of Israel. They rejected His Son; therefore they have rejected the Father. So why the focus and emphasis on that land? I know the importance due to the history of our belief. Which has Jewish roots. What do you think the marriage supper is all about? Us accepting the truth of our own Jewish heritage! This is the truth my brothers and sisters! So rejoice, peculiar people!
