     | 100 views

    Our psalm today describes King David and his successors as priest-kings in the order of Melchizedek. David, like Melchizedek, functioned during his reign as King of Jerusalem, but there were times he presided at sacrifices, before his son built the Temple.

    A challenge to anyone who professes to have faith in Christ.

    INTRODUCTION It’s not what we claim to be as Christians, but what we are seen to be that really matters.
