One-Year Bible Notes and Daily Bible Reading
November 5
Here is some good advice if the facts about Christ ever seem difficult to understand. We should think about Christ. We should think about his life and his death. We should think about how he became alive again after his death. And we should think about the good things that God has done for us by means of Christ.
Ezekiel 12:1-14:11
Hebrews 7:1-17
Psalm 105:37-45
Proverbs 27:3

The Priestly Order of Melchizedek
Jesus Compared to Melchizedek
Here is some good advice if the facts about Christ ever seem difficult to understand. We should think about Christ. We should think about his life and his death. We should think about how he became alive again after his death. And we should think about the good things that God has done for us by means of Christ.
The author of Hebrews has been explaining about Melchizedek, and about his connection with Christ’s work as a priest. Few Christians would consider that lesson to be easy to understand. But we will understand the lesson much more clearly if we think about Christ.
We know that Christ has acted as our priest. We know it because he died as a sacrifice for our sins. A sacrifice is a gift that God considers valuable. Here, it is the blood of his own Son. Our sins are the bad and wrong things that we do against God. It is the priest’s duty to offer the sacrifice on another person’s behalf. So Christ is both our priest, and our sacrifice.
We know that Christ was not a priest by the law that Moses gave. Christ did not belong to the family of Aaron. But Melchizedek was also a priest who did not belong to Aaron’s family. So, Christ was a priest like Melchizedek.
And we see that Christ has a life that can never end. He died, but he did not remain dead. He has overcome the power of death and hell. So he is able to serve as our priest, both now and always.
It was not men who appointed Christ to be priest. And he did not appoint himself. It was God the Father who did it. And he did it by the words that we read in Psalm 110:4. He appointed Christ to be both priest and king.

You Need to Know the Bible for Yourself
Everybody needs to know what the Bible really says: what it says about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, salvation and eternity, etc. Don’t depend on what a church or some famous preacher tells you. If you depend on Hollywood, the History Channel, or a magazine for the most important information you will ever need to know. You may end up lost forever not knowing what God has written down for you. He wants you to spend eternity with Him.
You need to know Jesus before you can be saved. The bible is all about who Jesus is and what He has done for you. He has a gift for you and it is completely free. But if you don’t know Him, you will not be in the Kingdom of God with Jesus who gave His very life for you.
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. “Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ “And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.’ ~ Matthew 7:21-23
There is an absurd amount of very bad information out in the world today about the Bible. You will only know the truth if you study the bible for yourself. And if you study the bible and ask The Holy Spirit to open your eyes to the truth He will and it will change your life forever.
