Publisher's Synopsis
The order of Melchizedek is the earliest priesthood mentioned in the Bible, with Melchizedek as the first priest mentioned by name in the Scriptures. Psalm 110 of the King James Bible identifies the order of Melchizedek as being the line through which Israel's Davidic King is later ordained. The Millennial global rule and ministry of Messiah will see these two authorities of Melchizedek unite seamlessly upon the GENERATION. The remnant Church, the Gentiles and the remnant Jewish nation will become one. Israel and the Congregation/Church of the God of Israel were never divided in the eyes of God. There are and always will be just one single Elect and Chosen People. Moses and the Apostle Peter both prophesied that God's covenant people from both houses of Israel will be re-united and restored. They will be cross-linked to become that promised 'royal priesthood' and a 'holy nation'. (See Exodus19:6 and 1 Peter 2:9) But the Order of Melchizedek is destined to go out beyond the lives of individuals, to reach a GENERATION. The Ministry and Rule of the Messiah was prophesied to become an international reality within World history. His Kingdom Rule and the Ministry of His High Priesthood are the dual offices that will be at work in the world upon the GENERATION. Both of these, authorities of Melchizedek, the political and ministerial governments, will emerge under the auspices of rule of the Messiah. So, we can safely conclude that, in spite of the best laid plans of men, Israel and the Church are destined to give birth to an epic and climactic history upon the ages to come on the GENERATION. And in the crucible of the end time a remnant Church and remnant Israel are both slated to come back into union once again.
