Featured How does your theology deal with the following

For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. Rom 5:10
For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living. Rom 14:8.9

Question
IYHO

Was the resurrection of Christ necessary, for any man, from Adam to the last man born or woman, to receive incorruptible eternal life?

so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;' as also in another place He saith, 'Thou art a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;' who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death -- with strong crying and tears -- having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared, through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered -- the obedience, and having been made perfect, he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during, having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek, Heb 5:5-10

Questions
How and when did, the Christ, who did not glorify himself to become chief priest, become chief priest? Did it have anything to do with being raised out of the dead a life giving Spirit? Did his becoming chief priest require anointing? With what?
Consider-
Acts 2:32-36 'This Jesus did God raise up, of which we are all witnesses; at the right hand then of God having been exalted -- also the promise of the Holy Spirit having received from the Father -- he was shedding forth this, which now ye see and hear; for David did not go up to the heavens, and he saith himself: The Lord saith to my lord, Sit thou at my right hand, till I make thy foes thy footstool; assuredly, therefore, let all the house of Israel know, that both Lord and Christ did God make him -- this Jesus whom ye did crucify.'

2 Tim 2:8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,

The good news he spoke of in Gal., not of man.

 

Gal 3:22 YLT but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin <dying thou dost die>, that the promise <of the Spirit V 14 ?the Spirit of Truth?>, by faith of Jesus Christ, may be given to those believing.

Now what is the only thing that could take place that would remove one from being under sin, under dying thou dost die?

The dying of the one and only, one, who knew no sin, even the sin of not learning and becoming obedient unto death even the death of the cross. He had to give his life, pour out his soul unto death and he did that when he said Father, unto your hands, I commit the spirit of me. He died in the flesh and the soul of him was in the state of Hades, the place of death.

Did that give life to anyone who and experienced, dying thou dost die? Did that keep the next person born of woman to be born in a state other than PS 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. KJV?

What had to take place in order that they could be made alive? Could the dead spirit less Christ in Hades make them alive? Could the dead Christ in Hades be high priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,

Acts 2:31 “he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption.

Was Christ dead or alive for three days?

Acts 2:32,33 “This Jesus God has raised up,(out of the dead) of which we are all witnesses.“Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.


John 7:39 and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
John 6:39 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
John 10:26 but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep,


So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec Heb 5:5,6
Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 1 Peter 1:21

Did being raised from the dead by the Father have anything to do with Christ being glorified to be called High Priest after the order of Melchisedec?

 

My thought exactly. Just what does the name Jesus mean.

I'd bet my life that it wasn't up to the man in the Amazon jungle to save himself because Adam brought sin and death into the world. Somehow I feel God has him covered. And I've got a feeling it has to do with the death and resurrection of Jesus.

 

I just had the following in mind. Not necessarily a definition I guess.

and she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
