The Melchizedek Teachings in the Orient

Melchizedek

94:0.1The early teach­ers of the Salem re­li­gion pen­e­trated to the re­motest tribes of Africa and Eura­sia, ever preach­ing Ma­chi­venta’s gospel of man’s faith and trust in the one uni­ver­sal God as the only price of ob­tain­ing di­vine fa­vor. Mel­chiz­e­dek’s covenant with Abra­ham was the pat­tern for all the early pro­pa­ganda that went out from Salem and other cen­ters. Uran­tia has never had more en­thu­si­as­tic and ag­gres­sive mis­sion­ar­ies of any re­li­gion than these no­ble men and women who car­ried the teach­ings of Mel­chiz­e­dek over the en­tire East­ern Hemi­sphere. These mis­sion­ar­ies were re­cruited from many peo­ples and races, and they largely spread their teach­ings through the medium of na­tive con­verts. They es­tab­lished train­ing cen­ters in dif­fer­ent parts of the world where they taught the na­tives the Salem re­li­gion and then com­mis­sioned these pupils to func­tion as teach­ers among their own peo­ple.
