With the summer holidays quickly approaching, many parents and carers will be organising activities for their children to partake in during their time away from school. Dance is always a popular choice amongst both children and parents, and there are a wide range of styles available to choose from such as ballet, tap, jazz and urban. The classes available will vary depending on the area in which you live, so it is a good idea to ask other parents if they know of any good classes which they can recommend. Going to classes with friends is also a great way to get children interested in dance and will encourage them to keep attending throughout the summer.

Since it says in Psalm 110:4 and Hebrews 5:6 that Christ is a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek, I think we had better get a good understanding about this amazing man, Melchizedek. Melchizedek first appears in Genesis 14:18-20 in which he verbally blessed Abraham and Abraham gave him a tenth of the spoils he obtained in battle. Verse 18 says that Melchizedek was both king of Salem and a priest of God most high. The first question that comes to mind is what covenant was the basis of the priesthood of Melchizedek? The answer is that a priesthood which offered blood sacrifices was implicitly established under the Adamic covenant (Genesis 1:28-31;3:21). One could also argue that Melchizedek's priesthood was based at least in part on the covenant God made with Noah in Genesis 9:1-17. The Adamic and Noahide covenants allowed for a man to simultaneously hold the office of both king and priest. Melchizedek was both a king and a priest. Noah was a priest and he offered sacrifices in Genesis 8:20. Under the covenant of Moses which was given to the descendants of Abraham centuries later, the office of king and priest were strictly separated. The priests came from the tribe...more
