WISE MEN with a WISE QUESTION "Where is HE that is born KING of the Jews? (Matthew 2:1-2) Was all their time, distance, expense, and difficulty really worth it? DIRECTIONS: God's grace and concern GUIDED them: "For we have seen HIS star in the east.when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great JOY" (Matthew 2:2, 10). DISCOVERY: "And when they were come into the house, they SAW the young CHILD with Mary" (Matthew 2:11). DECISION: "And they fell down, and WORSHIPPED HIM: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him GIFTS: gold, and frankincense and myrrh" (Matthew 2:11). WHAT IS MY DESIRE? As your heart desires to know God, remember that He is the One "WHO will have ALL men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is ONE GOD and ONE MEDIATOR (a go-between) between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himselfa RANSOM (instead of others having to pay for it) for ALL" (1 Timothy 2:4-6). WHERE DO I GET MY DIRECTIONS? You can know God because of the "HOLY SCRIPTURES which are able to make thee WISE UNTO SALVATION."How? "Through FAITH which is in Christ Jesus. ALL SCRIPTURE is GIVEN BY INSPIRATION of GOD" (2 Timothy 3:15-16). "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God" (Romans 10:17). "For thus saith the LORD.I am the LORD; and there is none else. I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seck ye Me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.and there is no God else beside Me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me" (Isaiah 45:18,19, 21). WHAT WILL I DISCOVER? "Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me" (John 5:39). "Jesus saith unto him, I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me" (John 14:6). "He that heareth MY WORD and BELIEVETH on Him that sent ME HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, and shall NOT come into JUDGMENT, but is passed FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE" (John 5:24). "And this is life etermal, that they might know Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent" (John 17:3). "Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else" (Isaiah 45:22). WHAT WILL MY DECISION BE? "COME unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). "And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that COMETH to Me shall never hunger, and he that BELIEVETH on Me shall never thirst" (John 6:35). Will my decision be to BELIEVE what God has said and to have a personal, right relationship to Him that lasts forever or to follow MY OWN way, by MY OWN star, having no authority for, no assurance of a safe and sure arrival in God's eternal heaven?
