<<The only Prince of Peace that I know is Jesus.>>
Melchizedek was a man, not Jesus or an angel.
Heb 7:4
4 Now consider how great this *man* was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham
gave the tenth of the spoils.

This *Man* Melchizedek could not have been an incarnation of Christ unless of
course you believe in reincarnation.
Heb 9:26
26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but
now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the
sacrifice of himself.

<<I do not pay tithes under the Law, but I like Abraham pay them to Jesus
Christ...>>
I pay tithes to the ministry ( my pastor) who spends them how he sees fit.
(For his own needs and the work of God.)
1 Cor 9:9
9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of
the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?

Heb 1:1-2
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the
fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son...
As Heb.1:1 tells us , God spoke to mankind in many and different ways but
only once through his flesh (Son) and that in these last days, not before the
law. It is my opinion that the doctrine of Melchizedek as God is a carry over
from trinitarianism where they,(grasping at straws) search the old testement
for a preexsisting "God the Son", (the second person of their trinity). The
doctrine of Melchizedek as God has no place in oneness. Mike
