Who is Melchisedec mentioned in the Bible?
January 09, 2018
Melchisedec was a priest in the Old Testament and was a king the Bible tells us of Salem, a place identified with Jerusalem. Not much is told about this city in the Bible. The first mention of this city is in Genesis 14:18-20 and Psalm 110:4. Jesus referred to this Psalm many times and regarded it as one of the Messianic Psalms. The ideal ruler of the Hebrew Nation was one who was both priest and King. Hebrews 5-7 shows Jesus Christ the perfect revelation of God because in his person he is son and in his work he is priest. The ideal priest must belong to the order of Melchizedek. Christ was the fulfillment of this prophecy for he came out of Judah. This special priest would be forever and whose life cannot be destroyed by death. Melchizedek was a mystery man. He appeared to Abraham without warning received tremendous honor and then disappeared. He set an example for the Messiah. His spiritual power impressed Abraham. He used God’s name as God the most high. The book of Hebrew Chapter 7 tells us more about Melchizedek. Verse 3 tells us Melchizedek had no mother or father. He had no genealogy. He had no beginning of days nor an end of life. He was made like the son of God and remains a priest. He collected a tenth from Abraham’s spoils. He blessed the one who had the promises Abraham. Former priests existed in great numbers but were prevented by death from continuing on. But Jesus because he continues forever holds the priesthood permanently. We today have a high priest holy, innocent, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens. He does not need to offer up sacrifices like other priests did in the Old Testament. Because this he did when he offered himself for sacrifice. Jesus our High Priest has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in Heaven. Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands but into Heaven itself to appear in the presence of God for us. So Christ having been offered once to bear the sins of many will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin to those who eagerly await him. Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices which can never take away sins; Hebrew 10:11. If we as sinners go on sinning after hearing the truth there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins; Hebrew 10:26. Our High Priest Jesus is with God right now waiting for his enemies to be made a footstool for his feet. Our High Priest is a mediator folks between us and God. Pray to him folks for he is the only way we have access to Heaven. Thank you.

Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really.
Sometimes it pays to stay in bed in Monday, rather than spending the rest of the week debugging Monday’s code.

John W. Collins, 68, a long-time criminal defense attorney in Arcadia, died Wednesday (December 27, 2017) after a brief battle with cancer. Born in Birmingham, John W. Collins Jr. moved with his family in the early 1960s to Arcadia, where his father operated a small chain of retail stores. After graduating from DeSoto High School, he put himself through Manatee Junior College and the University of South Florida. While raising a family in Fort Myers in the 1980s, he worked for the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, and later for the Lee County probation office. In 1986, he attended law school at Nova University, and was admitted to the Florida Bar in 1990. After a stint as an Assistant State Attorney (ASA) in Lee County, John returned to Arcadia to serve as ASA in DeSoto County, a post he held until 1996 when he went into private practice first in Punta Gorda, and later Arcadia, as a criminal defense attorney. “All of us in the legal community are shocked and saddened,” said Jim Parker, a retired circuit judge for DeSoto County. “He was a personal and professional friend of the court.” “I worked with John for over 20 years,” said Don Hall, a county and now circuit judge in DeSoto. “Always prepared, he was staunch advocate in the courtroom. But once you stepped outside those doors, he became John again. One thing that distinguished him as a lawyer was his ability to see the law not just as abstract principles, but to see what it meant to peoples’ lives. He helped us to keep that in mind.” “I don’t know that I’ve ever known another lawyer with a higher regard for the Constitution than John,” said E.E. “Bucky” Waldron, an Arcadia attorney who went to high school with Collins in the 1960s. “He worked very hard for his clients. But even outside of his profession, some of us are very fortunate to have counted him as a friend for over 50 years.” The judges’ office learned to treasure John’s sense of humor, often on display at impromptu birthday parties for Parker and Collins. “We’d usually give each other political gag gifts,” said Parker. “We could discuss things and disagree without being disagreeable. It’s hard to lose a good friend like John, but I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers forever. Rest in peace, my friend.” John was an accomplished amateur musician who loved playing guitar and his baby grand piano at his home. He also enjoyed golf with his old friends, dating back to his early days at the 9hole Arcadia Golf Course. John is survived by wife of 21 years, Connie L. Collins, of Port Charlotte; a son, John W. “Trey” (Andrea) Collins III of Tampa; daughters Carli (Mike) Minacci of Tampa and Cassie Collins of Port Charlotte; grandchildren: Camden and Chase Minacci; and Jackson and Benjamin Collins; a brother Ronny (Lorrie) Collins of Arcadia, and a sister, Gail (Rick) Comfort of New Port Richey; and many nieces and nephews. John was preceded in death by his parents, John W. Collins, Sr. and Janet S. Collins Walker, and a sister, Pam Collins. John’s friends and family are invited to a celebration of his life to be held at Kingsway Country Club, 13625 SW Kingsway Circle, Arcadia, FL. 34266 from 3 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, January 6, 2018. Online condolences can be made at pongerkaysgrady.com Ponger-Kays-Grady Funeral Homes have been entrusted with the arrangements.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, Forever and ever. Amen.

“What's That Sound?”
Chapter 13 by Bumpy Thermos The night was pitch black. No sound either. Even the hum of the windmill couldn’t be heard. Birds, crickets…nothing. No sound that I could make out. It was so silent that it gave you a creepy feeling. The search party had been out searching for the boy for over an hour or so when I saw the movement over at the house. The old truck with the crazy looking machine in it had now opened up into something twice the size it was in the beginning. The dad and the guy who brought the truck were now cranking something that was on the side of the big pot like part of the machine. It wasn’t making any noise, it just looked like it should be. I started noticing a light beginning to shine on the top. Kind of like a light house light. Very dim at first, but then it started getting brighter and brighter as they were cranking the machine. Soon the light was so bright that everything around it was lit up. I don’t think I have ever seen anything as bright as the light was. Still no sound from the machine. Faster and faster the two continued to crank. The more they cranked, the brighter the light. By now you could not look right at the light, it would blind you if you did. The light had been rotating as it got brighter. Now it was beginning to blink and move up and down as it went around. Weird I tell you. Weird. Up until now, the machine had not made any noise. The light was just blinking, moving up and down and getting brighter and brighter as it turned. Then all of a sudden, I started hearing a faint noise. I could not make it out, but it was a very high pitched noise. You know something almost like a small child screaming. Very soft at first, then louder and louder, then really loud. Almost to the point of hurting your ears. Some of the search party started coming back. I guess they were able to hear the noise all over the county. More and more of the search party came back and just stood around the machine. Some of them holding their ears because of how loud it was. Even people that were not searching started coming out to see what was going on. None of that stopped the machine. None of that even slowed it down. The two men were really starting to spin that machine now. It was going very fast. Between the blinking light and the loud noise, you couldn’t hear yourself think. People were not even able to talk to each other. People were just looking at each other with their hands over their ears. It didn’t take long and everyone had gone somewhere else. I don’t know if they went home, but they went somewhere other than here. It was just too loud and too bright to stand anywhere near this machine. Then as quick as it started, it began to slow down. The noise went first, then the light going up and down and finally the light dimmed and it was over. Or so we thought…
