    Gifts Of Recognition

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Dec 21, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,100 views

    The wise men came to Jesus bearing gifts. The gifts recognize who Jesus was. They recognized him as divine, king, with their gifts. How do you recognize Jesus with what you give to Him and others?

    ntro: The background of this story would make any modern day soap opera, or prime time drama writer drool. The wise men meet with a self-absorbed, psychopath by the name of Herod the Great. He was a level headed, friend of the Romans who brought stability to the economy of Judea and built for ...read more

    (Singing this acapella) “I'll be home for Christmas, you can plan on me. Please have snow and mistletoe and presents on the tree. Christmas Eve will find me where the lovelight gleams. I'll be home for Christmas if only in my dreams.” That Christmas song was written back in 1924, but it ...read more

    Christmas is a glorious time when experiencing the blessings of God and all is well, but, what about those who are suffering the loss of a loved one or a broken relationship or a prolonged illness. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow explores this in his poem.

    Video of Church Bells Ringing I heard the bells on Christmas day Their old familiar carols play And wild and sweet the words repeat Of peace on earth goodwill to men I thought how as the day had come The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along the unbroken song Of peace on earth goodwill to ...read more

    This is the final sermon in a series for Adven, Christmas, and Ephphany based on the Names of Jesus from Isaiah 9:6. As our Messiah, He is the source and giver of both personal and of world peace.
