'''Melchizedek''', priest of the Most High God, is an ancient member of the sacred-fire priesthood that we know as the '''Order of Melchizedek'''. The Melchizidekian priesthood is very ancient, going back all the way to other star systems. It is the priesthood of the seventh ray, combining the perfect religion and the perfect science. Priests of this order are required to be scientists as well as to perfect the way of the light of God in their temples. | '''Melchizedek''', priest of the Most High God, is an ancient member of the sacred-fire priesthood that we know as the '''Order of Melchizedek'''.

<blockquote>In this manner Melchizedek was born without father and without mother, without descent, without beginning of days and without ending. You say, “You have said that he was born without father and mother, and yet you have said that they faced one another.” Yea, it is true. But those who faced one another were as masters of light, a Son and Daughter of God, and he was without earthly mother and father, but not without heavenly mother and father. Thus, I have revealed to you this night one of the secrets of the Order of Melchizedek.<ref>Lord Ling, October 13, 1963.</ref></blockquote> | <blockquote>In this manner Melchizedek was born without father and without mother, without descent, without beginning of days and without ending.
