The Glorious Newborn King
In Matthew 2, we see three different responses to the glorious birth of king Jesus. King Herod responds in fear, seeing Jesus as an unwelcome threat to his sinful ways and seeking to remove him. The people of Jerusalem respond with indifference and fear of aligning themselves against Herod. But the Magi, men who were pagan, sinful, and outsiders, responded to the glorious appearing of Jesus with worship. What is your response to the glorious newborn king?
