*2 who can bear gently with the ignorant and erring,*

[5010] Mel-chi-seDEK.

*10 named of :God high priest after the order of Melchizedek.*



 *NOTE: *Psalm 110 according to some, is the most often quoted portion of OT
Scripture in the NT. And - it all revolves aound God's appointment of Jesus
as His only begotten Son, into this high eternal calling as the Great High
Priest after the order of Melchizedek! And - because Jesus is not only Son
of God, but also Son of man, He is so identified with us in our humanity,
that He perfectly understands our infirmities, and can therefore deal gently
with us in our ignorance and erring. What a Savior! What a Redeemer! What a
Great High Priest! There is *no one* like Jesus on our behalf.


 5:7-10 - Many of us have seen Mel Gibson's “The Passion of the Christ.” It
is a true picture of Jesus' physical suffering on our behalf; but it
completely passes by His s*piritual* suffering. “*Cursed* is every man who
hangs upon a tree.” Because Jesus did so at Calvary, He became *a curse* for
us. His *soul* was made an offering for sin. One man - Adam - brought sin
into the entire human race - the heredity of sin. One man - Jesus - worked
mighty redemption on behalf of the complete human race - past, present and
future! When the curse of the cross entered into His sinless soul, He was
forsaken by God, and His anguish spiritually over shone His physical
suffering a thousand fold! Maybe *much* more!


 But not only did He have this final unfathomable suffering on the Cross on
our behalf - but all through His life He suffered and learned obedience as
Son of Man through His sufferings. How could we *not* help but yield to Him
our all, as the Holy Spirit makes real to us what redemption on your behalf
and mine truly cost the matchless Son of God? Then we begin to understand
the spirit of Oswald Chambers when he said - the answer is “*Personal*, *
passionate* *devotion* to Jesus! - J.A.W.
