Matthew 2 – The Epiphany
A CLASH OF THRONES
The news that Christ the King will always provokes one of two responses:
We will bend our knee to worship Him as Lord – or maintain that we are.
AN EPIPHANY OF GRACE
God’s gracious drawing the Magi from afar reiterates His plan to offer redeeming grace to all people, from all nations & walks of life, who are afar.
A MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION (Matthew 5:14-16, 2 Cor 5:17-21)
Since the resurrection of Jesus, the light that God sends into the world is His church. He reconciled us by grace & reconciles others through us, by grace.
