Mystery of the Melchizedek – Part 2

Torah to the Tribes - A podcast by Matthew Nolan - Sundays

The Melchizedek Book of the Covenant Jeremiah 1:11 Moreover the word of יהוה came to me, saying, “Jeremiah what do you see?” and I said, “I see a branch of an almond tree.” Then יהוה said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.” Jeremiah saw and understood the revelation of the ‘branch’ that would be nailed to the almond tree. Jeremiah knew that יהוה was going to perform HIs Word – Yahusha! In context, those who couldn’t embrace the revelation of the samech – branch had this kind of relationship to the Torah. Jeremiah 2:8 Those who handle the law did not know me. Should we be getting our understanding of the law from those who do not know Him? Should we be getting our understanding of the law form those who do know him but follow the interpretation of those before who don’t know him? The Melchizedek narrow road between the two broad roads of lawlessness and rabbiniclism! Traditional Christian Theology understands ‘the law verses’ in the NT to mean that believers are not under any OT precepts or laws because you now have an economy of grace. The law was something that the Jews did and still do and its simply not for you! In essence the baby (which is law contained in covenant BoC)) has been thrown out with the bathwater (which the imposed BoL) and we’ve ended up with the very lawlessness in the Church that the Apostle Paul warned us about 2000 years ago. James 2:8 If ye fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well. The royal Torah is from the scripture and it’s the law of fidelity love which is faithfulness to the covenant. Which today has been diminished to doing what you want and just having a bit of love to throw around to your neighbor when no one is looking. Then on the other road we’ve got Levitical law and rabbinical Talmudic interpretations of the Torah and a whole slew of Jewish and Pharisaic torah deception! Teaching the return to Torah but erring by not making a distinction between covenant Torah (Book of the Covenant) and imposed Levitical (Book of the Law). The lawless road and the Non division of Torah road, the two broad roads DO have one thing in common! They both believe with differing results, that the Book of the Law and Book of the Covenant are synonymous! BUT…..what if they’re wrong? This is the mystery of the Melchizedek and our return from the exile! No longer lawless, but neither erring by falling into the Messianic Torah trap! What if יהוה wanted to remove the Book of the Law tutor and schoolmaster over Judaism but also wanted to remove the NO law free skate from the failing Church and place all His people back safely within the parameters of royal law, or New Book of the Covenant fidelity through the administration of His son Yahusha the Melchizedek? No more lawlessness. No more Pharisaic, Judaic proscriptive Torah. But full fledged covenant fidelity of what James calls ‘royal torah’ mediated through the Malki Tzedik High Priest? 1 Peter 2:9  But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a kadosh nation, and a peculiar people; that you should show forth the tehillot of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous Light. The royal priesthood (1 Peter) that means it’s Kingly, the only Kingly Priesthood in Scripture is Melchizedek. Hebrews 7:11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) …so this means the law, ‘Book of the Law’ was given at the Golden Calf breach…..because that’s where the Levitical Priesthood was born! The whole law is not viable to us! Law can be liberated – hence liberty, rescinded, amended 2 Peter 2:19-20 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the avadim of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the olam hazeh through the da’at of the Master and Savior gauvh ha Moshiach, and if they are again entangled therein, and overco
