Melchisedec - No Saint

“For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high, … without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.” Hebrews 7:7

Did any of the so-called bible scholars ever wonder where on earth is Melchisedec? What is he doing with his endless life on this earth? Doesn’t he want to go to heaven? How come he is always only hiding away from the troubles of mankind? Just like a powerful God who is also always omni-absent. We could learn a lot from Melchisedec’s terrestrial and variegated experiences in life. As one lively bible character both in the Old and in the New Testament, he could surely reveal to the whole world the Revealed Truth that’s pretty much still unrevealed! Or explain to us why we live in a world of confusion, if not delusion.

In the meantime, while Melchisedec has been historically deathless all this time, apparently, he is neither precious nor is he a saint in the eyes of the Lord. After all, Psalms 116:15, declared: “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” Poch Suzara
