Wise men

Standard

Matthew 2:2 – …saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.”

These ‘wise men’, travelled from a far and distant place to find God with the purpose of giving rather than getting.

They came to give, not to get even though it was God.

They saw worship and giving as synonymous. It’s impossible to worship without giving something of value to God.

Our worship is empty lip service if it costs us nothing!

Amazing that strangers and foreigners had a better recognition of Christ at all levels, than of the locals.

The local King (Herod) sought Christ to kill Him. The wise men sought Him to worship Him.

Make sure whatever star you decide to follow connects you closer to Christ!

Merry Christmas!

See you in Church!
