Q1. Abraham and Melchizedek

[George Y]

From my understanding I see that Abraham and Melchizedek both agree that God Most High is the Creator of heaven and earth.

[PATCH]

Both Abraham and Melchizedek believed that God is the creator of heaven and earth and controls everything. Even though his ancestors worship many gods and idols, Abraham worshipped El Elyon. Melchizedek could have served many gods too but he chose to serve only the most high God. Inspite of all the idolatry and praying to other gods, both men were confident of their fath in El Elyon, who is the one true God and had supremacy over all.

[gracenglory10]

They believed He was the God above all gods. They believed Him to be a personal God, willing to be involved in their lives and powerful enough to conquer their enemies. They worshiped Him and Him alone. They worshipped and and I believe incorporated in that, they feared Him with that healthy fear of God that embodies respect, worship, adoration and total obedience.

We as a family believe that Abraham and Melchizedek were blessed by the God the Most High for their actions in the scripture that was read

[Grammabear]

These men share bread and wine in fellowship and agreement. They refer to God as "God Most High", creator of Heaven and Earth. They believe that God was the One who enabled the victory over the enemies. Abraham recognized Melchizedek as priest of God Most High, and gave him a tithe of the spoils. Melchizedek blessed Abraham.

[Hi I'm Tanya]

Both Melchizedek and Abram referred to the LORD as God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth. They both believed and knew God as Creator. If He is Creator, then He also is ruler of all.

Q1. (Genesis 14:19, 20, 22) What did Abraham and Melchizedek seem to believe in common about God Most High?

 

They both worshipped God the Most High. They both believed God to be the "One in charge of everything". With no scriptures yet available, anyone who sought God had to find Him on a personal level, as Abraham had. God had to reveal Himself to them in order for them to know Him at all. Most likely God had revealed Himself to Melchizedek at a time prior to when he met Abraham. Perhaps Abraham had met Melchizedek earlier but the meeting was not recorded in Genesis. Let's remember that Abraham moved about a lot as a shepherd. It's likely the two men had met previously and even compared notes as to their respective beliefs about God. I think, although it's not suggested in the passage, that Melchizedek came to greet Abraham after the latter's victory to congratulate and bless him as a friend. I don't think that's too much of a stretch. The fact the Abraham gave him a tithe suggests that Abraham knew Melchizedek and knew him to be a priest/king and a fellow worshipper of God the Most High.

[Shyblue]

God is the creator and deliver  as well as King of kings and Lord of all.

[Marantha2]

Both Abraham and Melchizedek agreed that the Most High God was the maker of heaven and earth.  Even though they seemed to come at the situation from different positions, they both acknowledged Him as the most supreme God who is the ultimate Creator.

[The Kings Daughter]

Abraham and Melchizedek believed El Elyon was GOD, God most High, Creator of heaven and earth. 

[Majjinniss4]

Abraham identifies himself with the God of Melchizedek in the presence of the king of Sodom. They both believed in The Most High who is the Creator. They both acknowledged the blessings from the Most High God and that he is to be blessed.

[Godswoman]

God Most High - none higher, acknowledges God is Supreme

[chinesta smith]

Abram the most high God, is the possessor of heaven and earth; the most high God delivered thine enemies into thy hand.

SInce God is over the eath and eveything that is in it, He is exalted to the possessor of heaven and earth (everything).

[chinesta smith]

SInce God is over the eath and eveything that is in it, He is exalted to the possessor of heaven and earth (everything).

They believed that the Most High God was the creator of the heavens and of the earth and therefore, able to supply everything we need.
