The author of Hebrews takes Melchizedek, a shadowy figure, and shows that he was a prototype of the Lord Jesus Christ - the true king of Righteousness

Introduction If I asked you to name the most important people in the Old Testament I doubt that Melchizedek would be on your list, much less at the top. He appeared once, in Genesis 14 and he was referred once more, in Psalm 110. You could hardly call this “top billing,” but the Holy Spirit reached ...read more

The Armour Of God 1 - Truth, Righteousness, Readiness Series

Contributed by James Jack on Apr 11, 2009

Putting on the full armour of God is the only way to fight the spiritual battle against the devil.

Lots of Christians don’t like war imagery. They object to hymns like “Onward Christian Soldiers” which, they say, glorify war.
