We already learned that Jesus Christ is the reality of Melchizedek because just as Melchizedek blessed Abraham with bread/wine also Jesus blessed His disciples with bread/wine. But why did Apostle Paul still say this was a hard teaching for that era? What's so difficult to understand about Melchizedek 2,000 years ago?
Heb 7:1 explains the following characteristics of Melchizedek which should have been fulfilled by Jesus to prove that He [JESUS] is the true MELCHIZEDEK:
*King of Salem (king of gentile country)
*without father or mother (non-believer's household)
*without genealogy (no Jewish blood)
However, when we take a look at Jesus life, He was first of all titled King of Jews (Mt 27:35). Whoever does the will of God is considered to be our father and mother, which is basically a believer's household (Mt 12:46) and also Jesus was born of Jewish parents which clearly states he had Jewish blood (Matthew 1).
How is it that Jesus Christ didn't fulfill all the prophetical points to be Melchizedek? He only fulfilled bringing bread/wine and also that He is God Almighty, but what about everything else? Will he not fulfill the whole prophecy of Melchizedek to proof He is Christ, who came in the Order of Melchizedek 2,000 years ago?

Christ Ahnsahnghong and Melchizedek
According to the Bible Christ will come a second time (Heb 9:28); however, many believe He will come again to Israel or to a believer's country. But actually accoridng to the Bible, Second Coming Christ will appear in a non-believer's country to fulfill Bible prophecy.
Melchizedek is a topic that people don't like to talk about because nobody really understands the mystery behind it. Actually even Apostle Paul told the disciples that it was hard for them to learn about Melchizedek (Heb 5:8) who is only mentioned twice in the old testament and only in the book of Hebrews in the New Testament. Then what's difficult to understand about Melchizedek? Let's see the origin:
Gen 14:18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High, and he blessed Abram, saying,
"Blessed be Abram by God Most High,
Creator of heaven and earth.

The Bible says that everything in the old testament is a shadow, then even Melchizedek has a reality who is Jesus Christ who also blessed with bread and wine (MT 26:26). However, Apostle Paul still said it was difficult to teach about Melchizedek.. How come?
