Matthew 2:2
...Where is He that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star
in the east and are come to worship Him.
If the question were asked, who were these men who followed a star to
find the newborn King? These were the wise men that were religious men and had
heard of the prophecy. They like so many others had waited for the fulfillment
of God's promise that He would send a Savior to make a one time sin atonement.
The much anticipated day had come and Christ the King was born.
As stated in a previous writing that God unique methods used to announce
the birth of His Son Jesus Christ. He used angels to tell the shepherd abiding
in the fields that His Son was born and the heavenly host joined in the
celebration of Christ's birth. In this setting God is using a star to lead some
religious men to where Christ was.
Christ's star is still shinning bright for the entire world to see;
therefore, the question now becomes, Are you following His star? He is the
bright and morning star that the world cannot dim with its sinful conditions.
All believers represent the star of Jesus as we are the lit candles and the
church is the city set high upon a hill shinning brightly in this sin-darkened
world.
Therefore, believers, let your Christ star shine for the world to see.
