No, he was chosen by God, who said to him, \u201cYou are my Son. Today I have become your Father.\u201d <sup>6<\/sup> And in another passage God said to him, \u201cYou are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who is Melchizedek? He is the King of Salem, and Salem is not a physical place on earth. Melchizedek has no beginning and has no end. Melchizedek does not have a source, a starting point, he just existed and still exists. When the Bible says Jesus is a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek, it means He has no beginning and He has no end. Abraham was a patriarch, and the Bible says that Levi paid tithe in Abraham because he was in Abraham\u2019s loins<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/heb.7.1-17\"> [Heb.7:1-17]<\/a>. You pay tithe to a higher priest and as a patriarch, Abraham was the highest on earth at the time. Melchizedek showed up and Abraham paid tithe to him. This was before The Law for all those who say, \u201cTithe is Old Testament, it is The Law.\u201d Abraham was not under The Law yet he paid tithe. In fact, what Jesus came to do was to engraft us as seeds of Abraham, not to yoke us under The Law. <strong>The Law came with Moses but grace and truth came with Jesus.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The next prophecy we will be looking at is, the Messiah would be the rejected <strong>cornerstone<\/strong>. The prophecy is in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/psa.118.22-24\">Ps.118:<sup>22<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<em>The stone that the builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.<sup>23<\/sup> This is the Lord\u2019s doing, and it is wonderful to see. <sup>24<\/sup> This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it<\/em>.\u201d The fulfillment of this prophecy is in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/act.4.9-12\">Acts 4:<sup>9<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<em>are we being questioned today because we\u2019ve done a good deed for a crippled man? Do you want to know how he was healed? <sup>10<\/sup> Let me clearly state to all of you and to all the people of Israel that he was healed by the powerful name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, the man you crucified but whom God raised from the dead. <sup>11<\/sup> For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says, \u2018The stone that you builders rejected has now become the cornerstone<\/em>.\u2019 <sup>12<\/sup> <em>There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.\u201d<\/em> It is not Jesus and\u2026 It is not Jesus or\u2026 It is Jesus and Jesus alone.
