"The Reason
for the Season" |
|
|
God's
Word
- The
Bible
says in
Matthew
2:1-11 |
|
-
After
Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi
from the east came to Jerusalem.
-
and
asked, Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his
star in the east and have come to worship him.
-
When
King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
-
When
he had called together all the people's chief priests and teachers of the
law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born.
-
In
Bethlehem in Judea, they replied, for this is what the prophet has written:
-
But
you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers
of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will be the shepherd of
my people Israel.
-
Then
Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the
star had appeared.
-
He
sent them to Bethlehem and said, Go and make a careful search for the child.
As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship
him.
-
After
they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had
seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where
the child was.
-
When
they saw the star, they were overjoyed.
-
On
coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they
bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented
him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh.

personally? If you are not sure He has a

Plan for you! He'll give you the "Reason for the Season!" |
