but have everlasting life" (John 8:
iO.
The story OF the coming Of the
Wise Men to seek the One who had
been born King Of the Jews" re-
veals several attitudes toward Christ
which nnd their counterpart in our
day.
]. Expectancy tvvf l. y.
These men of another race were
familiar with the Jewish Scriptures
and knew that the Messiah was to
come. Many others. including the
religious leaders Of the Jews, had
the same information. But these
men Of the East differed in that
they looked for His coming with
keen desire and expectancy.
One wonders II we have not be-
come so familiar with the story Of
Christmas that we. like the Jews.
have a dead knowledge without ex-
pectant faith. We need to awaken
and look to God for new grace and
strength for these days.
II. Fear wv. 3. I, 8, l2).
Herod was capable, ruthless, un.
cody ruler who feared only that
someone would take his power from
him. He was so determined that
this should not happen, that he killed
many members Of his own family
for whom he otherwise had apparent
affection.
When he heard that Jesus, who
was the real King Of the Jews, had
been born, he feared. and laid crafty
plans to destroy Him. God saw to II
that his purpose was not carried out.
There are those Of our time who
fear the coming Of Jesus, because
thsy win not have Him to rule over
their lives. They love their selfish
ways. and their sinful pleasures;
and when they face the question Of
what they viii do with Jesus land
lace II they mustl). they have only
fear and hatred In their hearts.
III. Indifference wv. 49,.
When the Wise Men came to Je.
rusalem to inquire where the Christ
was to be born, they received an
immediate answer--in Bethlehem.
That was clearly foretold in Micah
S:2. The priests and scribes knew
al about It, but their knowledge did
mot move them to action. They told
the Magi where to 60. but they did
not 90 themselves.
How sad II is to see the indiffer.
ence of our day TO the claims Of
Christ. There are many who think
that simply because they do not
hate the church, or the Bible, or do
not fight against IT, they are guilt.
less. How wrong they are will ap.
pear to them il they will read Mat
thew ll:23. "a and recall that the
sin Of Capernaum was only indif.
ference.
Wake up, careless one, and change
your indifference to love and faith,
lest you too be eternally lost.
~. Joy wv. 9. 100.
These earnest seekers for the
Christ-child were full of joy even
before they saw Him. when they
saw the star" and knew that God
was indeed leading them, their
hearts- leaped within them as they
Njoiced with exceeding great joy"
