Melchizedek – A Better King Series

Contributed by Stephen Wright on Apr 8, 2006

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.

What God Hates

Contributed by Bob Joyce on Aug 31, 2007

God hates when we misuse the body He has given us for sinful purposes. Why? Because God hates sin.

The words hate and God do not seem to go together. Yet, the writer of Proverbs clearly declares that God hates something. What is it?
