    A sermon about making the decision to follow Christ.

    Going by Different Route Matthew 2:1-12 We aren’t told how long of a time had passed between when the magi first saw the star and when they arrived in Jerusalem, but Herod’s order—in verse 16—to kill all male children two years and younger in accordance with the time that the star first ...read more

    What Do The Magi's Gifts Mean Today?

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 2, 2021
     | 1,681 views

    The gifts that the magi presented to the baby Jesus have metaphorical meaning. What do they mean today?

    The story about the three magi visiting the baby Yeshua is a problematic story. If such an event took place, why is it only found in Matthew's Gospel? The idea of three magi traveling from Persia to Judea is fascinating. The narrative says that they followed the Bethlehem star. Many people ...read more

    It seems that from His birth along in His lIfe through the Gospel a question arrises, where is Jesus?

    WHERE IS HE? SCRIPTURE: Matthew 2:1 “Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship ...read more

    His light is not contingent upon what's going on around you

    A customer called the customer service line to complain about a power outage after a big storm, then stopped complaining long enough to ask, “How will I know when my lights are back on?” The customer service agent remained silent for a second, and finally said, “Um, it’ll be brighter than it is ...read more

    People Who Missed Christmas

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 10, 2017
     | 8,399 views

    Most people today miss the real meaning of Christmas, because the holiday has been hijacked by the secular culture. That's nothing new. Most people in the 1st century missed the 1st Christmas. 3 examples of them.

    PEOPLE WHO MISSED CHRISTMAS Luke 2:4-7; Mt. 2:1-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. As we were putting out cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve, I accidentally dropped one. "No problem," I said, picking it up and dusting it off before placing it back on the plate. "You can’t do that," argued my ...read more

    In life all these things and many more are against, but I am determined to stand on the Unadulterated Word of God and believe If God be for us who can be against Us.

    If God be for Us Who can be Against Us. By Bishop Melvin L.

     | 2,917 views

    While life may often seem to lack coherence, Matthew 2:1-15 shows us that God gives it His own unique cadence and rhythm. Ultimately, we don't have to have all of the answers if we know the One who does, and we humbly follow His lead.

    When Life Seems To Have No Rhyme Matthew 2:1-15 1. The Magi left for the land of Israel "on the brink…" - “A crucial or critical threshold, beyond which success or catastrophe occurs” - The Magi were on the brink of making a great personal discovery. - The chief ...read more

    When we look at the account of the wise men we will see some reasons why they were wise. The characteristics that made the wise men so wise are the same ones that will make us wise too.

    WHAT MADE THE WISE MEN SO WISE? Matt. 2:1-14 INTRODUCTION: Today I’ll be talking about the wise men’s part in the Christmas story. You might be wondering why I am doing a Christmas sermon after Christmas. Well, I’m focusing on the wise men specifically after Christmas because ...read more

    We have 2 advantages over non-Christians. Because of God's blessings in our lives, we are better off than many in this world, but we must be careful not to see ourselves as being "better" than others.

    For the next few weeks we’re going to be focusing on what can we learn from Scripture as it applies to a popular new TV series (now entering its 3rd season) called “This Is Us”.
