There Are Values in The Truth

Heb 7:1 For this Melchisedec,
king of Salem, priest of the most
high God, who met Abraham
returning from the slaughter of
the kings, and blessed him;

Heb 7:2 To whom also Abraham gave a
tenth part of all; first being by
interpretation King of righteousness, and
after that also King of Salem, which is,
King of peace;

Heb 7:3 Without father, without mother,
without descent, having neither
beginning of days, nor end of life; but
made like unto the Son of God; abideth
a priest continually.

Gen 14:21 And the king of Sodom
said unto Abram, Give me the
persons, and take the goods to
thyself.

Gen 14:22 And Abram said to the
king of Sodom, I have lift up mine
hand unto the LORD, the most high
God, the possessor of heaven and
earth,

Gen 14:23 That I will not take
from a thread even to a
shoelatchet, and that I will not
take any thing that is thine, lest
thou shouldest say, I have made
Abram rich:

The Lord Visits His Friend

Joh 8:56 Your father Abraham
rejoiced to see my day: and he
saw it, and was glad.

Pro 18:24 A man that hath friends
must shew himself friendly: and there
is a friend that sticketh closer than a
brother.

The Lord Visits His Friend

Gen 18:1 And the LORD
appeared unto him in the plains
of Mamre: and he sat in the tent
door in the heat of the day;

Gen 18:2 And he lift up his eyes and
looked, and, lo, three men stood by him:
and when he saw them, he ran to meet
them from the tent door, and bowed
himself toward the ground,

Gen 18:3 And said, My Lord, if now I
have found favour in thy sight, pass not
away, I pray thee, from thy servant:

Jas 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled
which saith, Abraham believed God, and
it was imputed unto him for
righteousness: and he was called the
Friend of God.

There is A Voice we Need to Hear

Gen 18:10 And he said, I will
certainly return unto thee according
to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy
wife shall have a son. And Sarah
heard it in the tent door, which was
behind him.

Gen 18:20 And the LORD said, Because
the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great,
and because their sin is very grievous;

Gen 18:21 I will go down now, and see
whether they have done altogether
according to the cry of it, which is come
unto me; and if not, I will know.

There is a Voice We need to hear

Gen 18:17 And the LORD said, Shall I
hide from Abraham that thing which I do;

Gen 18:23 And Abraham drew near, and
said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous
with the wicked?

2Ch 20:7 Art not thou our God, who didst
drive out the inhabitants of this land
before thy people Israel, and gavest it to
the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?
