I've been discussing the Order of Melchizedek, which is a very important topic in the Bible that has to do with the Lord Jesus Christ. There's a lot of truth about Melchizedek before Christ's time, before his bodily appearance on Earth, his birth, and so on. But now I want to talk about something that has become heresy in the church, and that heresy is people wishing to exalt the old city of Jerusalem. Melchizedek does not require Jerusalem's Old City. A third temple is unnecessary for Melchizedek. Nonetheless, many Christians today, particularly those associated with the charismatic movement, believe this.
They've practically romanticized Jerusalem's old city. On television, you can see people preaching and going to the Wailing Wall and all that stuff, all in the name of attempting to make some kind of spiritual application of that old city. But, as you can see, the Melchizedek Order does not need that. Only the Levitical order required the old city of Jerusalem. And just Levi's command was required or required. A third temple, with additional animal sacrifices, was built today. And I'm going to try to be very explicit about the comparison between Levi and Melchizedek in our session today, because we find it in the Old Testament in Second Chronicles, Chapter six, where Solomon is mentioned.
The Lord is conversing with Solomon. And he said, "I picked no place among all the towns of Israel to construct a house in which my name may be there from the day I took my people out of the land of Egypt." I didn't pick any guy to be the ruler of my people, Israel. But I picked Jerusalem so that my name might be written there, and I chose David to rule over my people. Israel. As a result, he selected David. He picked a city and stated, "I constructed a house, and now I have selected that house." I'm going to sign my name in accordance with Moses' ancient covenant. But the narrative doesn't end there.
Why did the Lord allow the destruction of the temple? The people of Judah had a great deal of faith in the temple and what it represented to them. It was determined that the Leviticus Order and all the rites associated with it were instituted under Moses. They began to place their faith in that temple, that order, and all of the associated ceremonies and offerings, among other things. But, according to the Lord, this is what he stated. It's a bunch of lies. It's, it's a waste of time. Either it's misleading or it's not. Quit
