    Three wise came from east and brought gifts according to their capacities. God blessed them all equally.

    Three kinds people groups in the Society - Mt. 2:1-18 By Rev. Andrew B Natarajan 1. Wise men of the East (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, ...read more

    Rachel's Sorrow

    However crafty, however ruthless Herod might have been, he could be no more successful than his evil superior Satan. The Redeemer would come just as was planned, would live just as planned, and would die just as planned.

    Matthew 2:13-18 Rachel’s Sorrow 12/15/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction I do like our Live Nativity we put on at our church. We show the manger scene; we have a full inn, a market square retail booth, angels singing to shepherds, and a tax collector at his booth. We even have the three ...read more

     | 4,480 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

    Whether it is our nature or not, God sometimes calls us to flex and adjust to change, but He gives us the strength to do so.

    The Return Trip That Was Diverted Thwarted Christmas Plans series (Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23) 1. I love stories like this: (UPI) An alleged robber at a Florida convenience store picked the wrong potential victim when the man he threatened with a BB gun turned out to be a former WWE wrestler.

    The Christmas Story

     | 16,815 views

    This telling of the birth of Christ is a mixture of narrative and historical facts. My prayer is that it blesses you.

    Many of us know the “Christmas Story” oh so well. And no, I’m talking about the one with the “Red rider BB gun”. That “Christmas Story” is very humorous and it’s a lot of fun to watch. But there was nothing humorous about what happened in Bethlehem and the neighboring villages as a result of the ...read more

    Herod, Dead Babies, And Hope Series

    There was a time in the seventies of the last century when Catholics seemed to stand alone among the Christian churches in their condemnation of abortion. Now they often stand with us outside the abortion mills and pro-choice lectures, praying.

    Feast of the Holy Innocents 2017 Reformation/Revolution I don’t think it is possible to read or hear the account of the flight into Egypt and the intentional murder of an unknown number of children by Herod dispassionately. St. Matthew, writing at least forty years after these events, is probably ...read more

    How do we plan our lives and actually do it?

    As I noted last week, we closed the year 2017 and look forward to a new year by thinking about the 7 P’s for the Christian life: Pray, Plan, Pray, Prioritize, Pray, Proceed, Praise! Last week we made a note of praying and praising from 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18…... How thankful were we the last week? ...read more

    There were four responses to the Christ Child. How do you respond to Him?

    During this time of year, in churches around the globe the story of Christmas–the coming of Christ to earth–is told. We tell of the shepherds, of Mary and Joseph, of the inn keeper, of the wise men or magi from the East, but there is one actor in this divine drama, who, though often ...read more
