    Did You Miss Christmas?

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Dec 22, 2013
     | 3,938 views

    Many missed encountering Jesus because of fear, indifference and the busyness of life. Learn from the Magi. Seek the Lord and He shall be found by you.

    Did you miss Christmas? I am not referring to the season, or the day, or the activities we have at Christmas time. • I am referring to the Person – the encounter with Jesus. Many today can have Christmas and not meet Christ. • Christmas can come and go without any significant ...read more

    The lights that lead people to the Savior today are called CHRISTIANS

    The 21st Century Christmas Star! Daniel 12:3 & Matt 2:1-12 When I was a youth, the planetarium had an annual program that explained the “Star of Bethlehem” Johannes Kepler, a Reformation era astronomer and mathematician, calculated that Jupiter and Saturn aligned in 7 b.c.

    Three kinds of a people group in the social approach God for theri benefits. Where do you fall?

    Three kinds of people groups in the Society Matthew 2:1-18 1. Wise men of the East (Matthew 2:1-2,9-12) The first groups represent the people who are half-baked. They trust in God and trust in self-search. Basically self-satisfied, believe in reasons, knowledge, wisdom, understanding. People ...read more

    At Christmas we all hope to either find or give the perfect gift. But if there was a present under the tree with Jesus' name on it, what would that look like? What would it contain?

    Introduction Now that the gifts are unwrapped; now that the family has come and gone, now that Christmas is over, did you get the perfect gift? When I was child, that seemed like the ultimate question. Each year I hoped I would get that top present on my wish list. And when I shopped for ...read more

    The Dark Side Of Christmas

    Why does Matthew add the story of the slaughter of the baby boys in Bethlehem. First becasue it is fact and second to trigger assocaiations between Jesus birth and Moses birth (see details in sermon)

    I came across this excerpt from a sermon from the Early Church Father St. Quod-vult-deus (Sermo 2 de Symbolo: PL 40, 655) “A tiny child is born, who is a great king. Wise men are led to him from afar. They come to adore one who lies in a manger and yet reigns in heaven and on earth. When ...read more

    What we learn about gifts from the Wise Men who visited Jesus.

    The Characters of Christmas: The Wise (?) Men Matthew 2:1-12 We come to close our series on The Characters of Christmas today with a look at the most misunderstood, or at least most misinterpreted, cast of characters in the entire Christmas story.

    The Magi's Sign

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 5, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,955 views

    Christmas is also about the gifts we are to offer in return, not to earn God's favor, but like the magi it is worth a life’s journey to follow whatever destinations may be given us to worship and to give our treasures to our Savior and our King.

    Matthew 2:1-12 The Magi’s Sign 12/8/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.” At least that is everyone’s concern about the star of Bethlehem. Of all the elements of the Christmas story, the visit of the magi who ...read more

    We all know the story of the Three Kings at Christmas, here is a story seldom told of the Two Kings

    The Story of Royalty We all know the Story; we’ve heard it over and over again. If you close your eyes you can almost picture them. Riding their camels across the desert at night, the moon highlighting their royal robes and crowns against the stark desert sand. It is a very familiar ...read more

    The Epiphany And All It Characters, The Full Story.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,426 views

    The Epiphany is all about the divinity of Jesus being revealed to the world; but not everyone like this news. This is a very interesting story with a variety of characters: eg. compare the characters of Jesus with Herod.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s, Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 8th January 2012; St Oswald’s is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries. The readings for today are: Isaiah 60:1-6 Ephesians 3:1-12 Matthew 2:1-12 Psalm ...read more

    No one pays that much attention to the wrapping. It’s what is inside that counts . . . right? Maybe this Christmas we should stop and consider how the gift was wrapped.

    Wrapped Pt. 2 - In Humility I. Introduction There is usually very little attention paid to the wrappings. Even if great time and effort is made to make sure each corner is tucked and folded perfectly. Even if the bow is picked to match exactly. Even if every seam is exact. Most of the time all the ...read more

    How To Become Wise

     | 4,970 views

    These trained students (these were astrologers) of the stars observed an unexplained phenomenon in the heavens, and somehow interpreted this sign with a change in the way things were. They saw it as a sign of the Messiah’s birth!

    How to Become Wise Matthew 2: 1-2, 10-11 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews?

    The Visitor Who Never Arrived Series

     | 4,584 views

    Whereas the Magi devoutly and innocently sought out the newly born Messiah-King, wicked King Herod never set his evil eyes upon Him. He, like so many others, never arrived.

    The Visitor Who Never Arrived Christmas “Thwarted Plans” Series (Matthew 2:1-8, 16-18) 1. A family had twin boys whose only resemblance to each other were their looks. Opposite in every way, one was an eternal optimist, the other a doom and gloom pessimist. Just to see what would ...read more

    When Life Seems To Have No Rhyme

    Contributed by Calvin Taylor on Dec 18, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,084 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
