Sermon 12-30-01 5 Kings Mt 2:1-12
Bo bo brazille, king of ring – co coa bean head butt, hard head
King 1 – Herod
Selfish, gathers to self
Save life, lose it
Chains, load of self absorption
Evil men will go to great lengths to keep on task
Evil men will use good men for their own devices
Said he wanted to worship, but did not
We choose to experience Christ or not
We are all kings of our own world
There is only one king.
Those who bow the knee find joy,
Those who do not, struggle to maintain their kingdom
King 2, 3, 4 = Melchior, Casper and Balthasar
wise, great, wealthy
could have lived in [hallbrook or mission hills]
they bowed the knee
to the Christ child
not to herod
presented gifts, not of gold frankincense and myrrh
gifts of themselves
made the journey alone, no large entourage, no pied piper syndrome
we must follow Christ even if we follow alone
many that we love, O that they would follow him
but if they will not follow us to heaven
we must not follow them to hell
Gal 5:1 “it is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”
You can’t carry your chains and bring your gift
King 5 = Jesus
Who is he?
Why he is able to make a difference in our lives
Joy to the world, we have experienced the living Christ
How hard is your head
Is yours as hard as bobo brazille’s?
Who wins the battle of the kings in your life?
I invite you to choose Jesus and find freedom and release.
