Oukty School Lesson it jew fl biatboy saum mmokait bamot chukh Gad's Gnat GUI (Matthew 2:1-12) I. Wise Men (2:1-2) II. Troubled Man (2:3-6) III. Deceptive Plan (2:7-8) IV. Joyful Wonhip (2:9-12) L WhM Maa (Matthew 2:1-2) The wise men came from the East looking far Jcaus. Bible acholara say that tbeee wiae men were probably aagqlogers, and that they lived in Psnia (present day Iran). They aaw the atar jn the East and came to wonhip Jcaua. They must have had come knowledge about Bible prophecy because they recognized the atar aa that of Jcaua. Apparently they were looking for the Meaaiah that the prophets had foretold. They came to seek out the one who was bom King of the Jews. ILTrsahMMan Herod was King of Israel at (he time of Jesus' birth. When the wise man aakad about where the King of the Jews was, the news got to Herod and ha not very upset Herod was diahabad mainly because be was 'maaoure. He lowed being King and did not want to give up ma throne. Whm be heard the wiae men asking about the King of the Jews, he thought Jesus was coming to take his throne. Herod was like many people today, they love their social standing, wealth, etc. more than having the peace thai Jesus can give. In other words, Jesui is a threat to their life, aa they tee it. In Hand's anxiety be called for the Soribss and Chief Priests to find out whan Jeaus would be bom. It is like the natural man when he gets disttnbod about something, be asks advise from a man of God to get an newer lo his problem. Sometimes the anawer is not what tbey want to hear, but it may also soothe things ovar for awhile. The Chief Priests and Scribes told Herod what he tr- " people know what they need to do when under conviction, but they want to work it out some other way Herod found out that Jesus was to he bom in Bethlehem of Judea, the first of the pnnces UL Deceptive Plan (2:7-9) Herod sent for the wise men and asked them when they saw the star After talking to them, he told them to find Jesus and come back to let him know where he was. Herod told them that he wanted to go and worship him. Of course, Herod's plan was to find Jesus and kill him. Many people today would like to rid the world of Jesus because like Herod he is a threat to their life style. Sometimes like Herod they use deception in the name of religion to try to thwart the gospel of Jesus Christ. They cannot sec that Christ offers them eternal life and peace that passes all understanding. IV. Joyful Noise (2:9-12) The star led the wiac men-to the house were Jesus was. They rejoiced at seeing the Star. The star stopped over the house where Jesus was and tbey went in to worship him. They had brought gifts of myrrh, gold and frankincense. The myrrh was symbolic of the death of Christ because it was used in tbepreparation of deceased bodies. The gold was a symbol of the purity of the Son of God. The frankincense was symbolic of. Jesus' authority, after worshipping Jesus, the wise men left, but God warned them in a dream to go bone another direction. God let than know of Hand's deceptive plan to kill Jesus. Many times we are faced with people who try to deceive us, but if we listen to the Lad, He will reveal it to us. When we are in God's will, we will be able to see deception of others The day that we live in we definitely need the wisdom of God more than ever to know when people are being deceitful or are for real. In today's world, people will use other people in the name of Jesus and think nothing of it. If you have not found the Lord's will for your life, first of all God' s will for your life is to save you for Christ's sake. If you don't know Jesus as personal savior, why don't you accept God's greatest gift to the world right now and find out the real meaning of Christmas W frto?
