Melchizedek is counted in the Bible, Hebrews 7:3, as one, "Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all time." Melchizedek lived and taught on earth for 94 years. Urantia Papers 93-98 are devoted to Melchizedek with Papers 96 and 97 treating the Hebrew religion's evolution--the world religion most heavily influenced, at least initiated, by his teachings. We're deeply engaged in a fascinating study of Melchizedek, the Third Epochal Revelation of God to our world. We've learned that Melchizedek came to earth on an emergency mission to rekindle the light of truth on Urantia. He thoroughly trained his messengers and dispatched them to the four corners of earth from Salem, now Jerusalem. These extraordinary papers examine how his teachings spread and recount the profound effect Melchizedek had on our world. We will continue to follow this with a study of The Buddhist Faith: UB 94:8.1 To become a Buddhist, one merely made public profession of the faith by reciting the Refuge: “I take my refuge in the Buddha; I take my refuge in the Doctrine; I take my refuge in the Brotherhood.” UB94:8.18 The great truth of Siddhartha’s teaching was his proclamation of a universe of absolute justice. He taught the best godless philosophy ever invented by mortal man; it was the ideal humanism and most effectively removed all grounds for superstition, magical rituals, and fear of ghosts or demons. It should be a great show. Hopefully Bro Joshua will join us again for a wonderful study. Please Join us @10AM Mountain time!
