Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” (John 1:49)

“He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.” (Hebrews 6:20)

by Brian Shilhavy

In previous articles I have discussed the differences between the Old Covenant, which began with Moses and the giving of the Law on Mt. Sinai, and the New Covenant, which began with the death of Jesus Christ, the Jewish Messiah. See:

American Christians are Biblically Illiterate Not Understanding the Difference Between The Old Covenant vs. The New Covenant

During the Old Covenant period, it was prophesied by the Jewish Prophet Jeremiah, just before the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in 586 BC, that in the future there would be a New Covenant.

Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the LORD.

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. (Jeremiah 31:31-33)

As we can observe from this prophecy recorded thousands of years ago, the New Covenant was going to change the “law”. The original law was given to Moses by angels on Mt. Sinai and engraved into stone tablets.

But when God began the New Covenant, the “law” would be written onto the hearts of men.

Jesus, during his observance of the Jewish Passover right before his execution, stated that his blood would begin the New Covenant.

And he took the cup and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink all of it. For this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the forgiveness of sins. (Matthew 26:27-28)

The book of Hebrews in the New Testament section of the Bible, is perhaps the best treatise on the full meaning of the New Covenant, and all of its implications in Jesus Christ.

Because this book is not a letter written to a specific group of people in a specific location like the apostle Paul’s other writings, but resembles more of a writing like a “dissertation” or research article, there has been some conjecture as to whether or not Paul wrote Hebrews, but the evidence is very strong that Paul wrote this, even though he did not sign his name to it.

It was written to “Hebrews” in general, the Jewish believers in Jesus Christ living during the First Century, as opposed to the Gentile believers.

The purpose of Hebrews is to more fully explain the differences between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant.

It is therefore, the best section of the New Testament portion of the Bible to refute the cultist beliefs of Zionism, because Paul and the other Jewish believers were dealing with many of the same issues facing us today by the Satanic Jews, who wanted to keep the Jewish religion of the Old Covenant going, even though it ended with Jesus Christ, and his death and subsequent resurrection from the dead.

The Office of High Priest and The Priesthood

One of the things that the book of Hebrews makes abundantly clear, is that the Levitical priesthood and the Levitical office of High Priest has ended, and been replaced by Jesus Christ, who is now our eternal High Priest.

The “order” of the Priesthood that Jesus belongs to in the New Covenant is superior to the Priesthood in the Old Covenant, and was not instituted by the Law of Moses.

In the Law of Moses, only those who were descended from the Israeli tribe of Levi could become priests, and take care of the Temple.

Jesus Christ, now our High Priest during the New Covenant, was from the tribe of Judah.

The order of Priesthood that Jesus belongs to is recorded as being the same as the Priest Melchezidech, who lived during the same time period that Abraham lived, and therefore served as a High Priest hundreds of years before Levi was even born.

Not much is known about this person in the Old Testament writings. Here is the historical account in Genesis, the first book of the Bible:

After his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).

And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (He was priest of God Most High.)

And he blessed him and said,

“Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth; and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!”

And Abram gave him a tenth of everything. (Genesis 14:17-20)

The only other time this person is mentioned in the Old Testament is in Psalms 110, written by King David.

The LORD has sworn and will not change his mind, “You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” (Psalms 110:4)

The book of Hebrews, however, goes into much more detail about this order of priesthood that Jesus Christ belongs to now.

For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is beset with weakness.

Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins just as he does for those of the people.

And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”; as he says also in another place, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.” (Hebrews 5:1-6)

For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, he swore by himself, saying, “Surely I will bless you and multiply you.”

And thus Abraham, having patiently waited, obtained the promise.

For people swear by something greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.

So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he guaranteed it with an oath, so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.

We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. (Hebrews 6:13-20)

Why the priestly order of Melchizedek is superior to the Old Covenant Levitical priestly order under the Law which came hundreds of years later:

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything.

He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

He is without father or mother or genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest forever.

See how great this man was to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils!

And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brothers, though these also are descended from Abraham.

But this man who does not have his descent from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises. It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.

In the one case tithes are received by mortal men, but in the other case, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him. (Hebrews 7:1-10)

How Jesus Christ replaced the Levitical priesthood and the office of High Priest through the new order of priesthood today that Melchizedek was from during the days of Abraham, which is superior to the Levitical priesthood:

Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron?

For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well.

For the one of whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar. For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, who has become a priest, not on the basis of a legal requirement concerning bodily descent, but by the power of an indestructible life.

For it is witnessed of him, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”

For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness (for the law made nothing perfect); but on the other hand, a better hope is introduced, through which we draw near to God.

And it was not without an oath.

For those who formerly became priests were made such without an oath, but this one was made a priest with an oath by the one who said to him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever.’”

This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant.

The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever.

Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens.

He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself.

For the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever. (Hebrews 7:11-28)

Paul goes on in Hebrews to show how superior the priesthood of Jesus is in the New Covenant, which has now replaced the Old Covenant:

Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man.

For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.

Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things.

For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.”

But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second. For he finds fault with them when he says (from Jeremiah chapter 31):

“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt.

For they did not continue in my covenant, and so I showed no concern for them, declares the Lord.

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.”

In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. (Hebrews 8:1-13)

If the Old Covenant is now obsolete and has been replaced with the New Covenant with a new priesthood and a new office of High Priest, fulfilled by the blood of Jesus and his death on the cross, then why in the world would anyone want to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem today?

The New Temple is in heaven, as is the new High Priest and King, Jesus Christ! (My comments are in italics.)

Now even the first covenant had regulations for worship and an earthly place of holiness. For a tent was prepared, the first section, in which were the lampstand and the table and the bread of the Presence.

It is called the Holy Place.

Behind the second curtain was a second section called the Most Holy Place, having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron’s staff that budded, and the tablets of the covenant.

Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat.

Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

These preparations having thus been made, the priests go regularly into the first section, performing their ritual duties, but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people.

By this the Holy Spirit indicates that the way into the holy places is not yet opened as long as the first section is still standing (which is symbolic for the present age). (Editor’s note: When Paul wrote this the physical temple in Jerusalem had not yet been destroyed.)

According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper, but deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer (No need for red heifers!), sanctify for the purification of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.

For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established. For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive.

Therefore not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood.

For when every commandment of the law had been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying,

“This is the blood of the covenant that God commanded for you.”

And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.

Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world.

But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him. (Hebrews 9:1-28)

Since Jesus is now the new High Priest serving in the REAL Temple which is in heaven, not on earth, there is no longer any need of a new temple on earth, nor any priests/pastors on earth to serve in such a temple/synagogue/church, because EVERYTHING was fulfilled by Jesus Christ, the prophesied Jewish Messiah, our eternal High Priest and Jewish King.

The Old Covenant is over, finished.

For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.

Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?

But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said,

“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me; in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”

When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), then he added, “Behold, I have come to do your will.”

He does away with the first in order to establish the second.

And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet.

For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,” then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin. (Hebrews 10:1-18)

Conclusion: Which “New World Order” do You Belong to?

We are on the cusp of a “New World Order” in the world today.

One version of this “New World Order” is not new at all, because it is the old Satanic Jewish World Order which wants to return to the past, to the Old Covenant, so that the Satanic Jews can continue running the world by controlling the banks and  the world’s financial system.

They opposed Jesus when he was here in the flesh, and the only records we have of Jesus ever becoming angry and resorting to physical resistance, is when he chased these Satanic Jews from the Temple that was still standing during his day.

These Satanic Jewish bankers referred to in the Gospel accounts are usually referred to as “money changers” in the English translations of the New Testament.

And they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.

And he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple.

And he was teaching them and saying to them,

“Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers.”

And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and were seeking a way to destroy him, for they feared him, because all the crowd was astonished at his teaching.  (Mark 11:15-18)

They were basically commodity traders, since Jews from all over the world came to the Temple and had to exchange their local currency into the currency of Israel, to purchase the animals that were needed to complete the blood sacrifices.

Nothing changes much over the course of history, as the Satanic Jews who run Western Culture are doing the same thing, trying to rule the world through the financial system and getting ready to crash the whole thing and implement their “Great Reset” where they will attempt to convert all currencies into digital ones.

The last Jewish High Priests under the Old Covenant were Annas and Caiaphas, who presided over the Jewish trial of Jesus Christ, condemned him to death, and handed him over to Pontus Pilate to be executed. (Read John chapter 18).

The Satanic Jews today want their priesthood revived in a new physical temple in Jerusalem, as they continue to deny that Jesus Christ was the Jewish Messiah, and is the new High Priest and Jewish King today.

Jesus made it clear that his Kingdom today on earth is spiritual, until he returns to earth a second time.

So Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”

Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?”

Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. What have you done?”

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.” (John 18:33-36)

This spiritual kingdom ruled by Jesus Christ, is the New World Order that I belong to.

How about you?

When Paul wrote Hebrews, he was very frustrated with many of the Jewish believers, because many of them embraced the gospel message he was preaching, but then quickly were deceived by the Satanic Jews, the Zionists of his day that he referred to as the “Circumcision Party” because they wanted all the new believers in Jesus Christ to keep obeying the Law of Moses and become circumcised, to fulfill the Old Covenant.

In Hebrews Chapter 5 when Paul introduced the “new order” of priesthood that Jesus Christ implemented in the New Covenant, which made Jesus the new High Priest according to the “new order” of priesthood that Melchizedek belonged to, he wrote:

About this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God.

You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child.

But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil. (Hebrews 5:11-14)

This was written before all of his writings and many other writings by the apostles and New Testament leaders were written and then put into the New Testament section of the Bible.

And yet, even though we have all these writings available to us today in the New Testament section the Bible, which has now been translated into literally thousands of languages, we still have mainly spiritual babies drinking milk who claim to be believers in Jesus Christ, with most of them in Western culture belonging to the Synagogues of Satan called “churches”, and unable to “distinguish good from evil” because they are so easily deceived by Zionism and the politics surrounding it.

Stop listening to the Christian “experts” and get to know the Word of God himself, Jesus Christ, who is our High Priest, and the ONLY ONE that God has chosen to speak to his children today.

Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. (Hebrews 1:1-3)
