    2 Co.5:17-19) Ministry of Reconciliation (2 of 2)

    Melchizedek presenting Abraham with bread and wine is yet another. "TheLordhath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek." (Ps.110:4) Obliquely the Spirit reveals how we ought to interpret the order of Aaron. God has willed his Son as the High Priest of our profession. (He.3:1) Similitude explains the like begets the like.

    Principle of Reconciliation is the basis by which the Book of the Revelation sets the work God has set as His core will:'that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself." So the word of reconciliation is presented in the inaugural vision of Re.1. The same we see in the Word of God arrayed leading an army in Ch.19.13-15 " And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God./And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean./And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God." This army is raised by the ministry of reconciliation where the Word of God reveals as the Lord of lords and king of kings. He has to vanquish the last enemy death.

    This army is raised by the ministry of reconciliation where the Word of God reveals as the Lord of lords and king of kings. He has to vanquish the last enemy death. In short the Revelation is about the fulfillment of the word of reconciliation.

    "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."(Re.20:14)
