    1.  Desire the truth
         The truth of Christmas is...
           •  The coming of Christ
           •  The crown for Christ
           •  The celebration of Christ

    2.  Despised the answer
           •  Which revealed his corruption

    3.  Devised a plan
         Herod's plan displayed his...
           •  Character
           •  Cruelty

    4.  Demonstrated that he was not the True King
           •  Takes life vs gives life
           •  Preserves self vs sacrifices self
           •  Uses others vs serves others

    5.  Herod couldn't stop anyone from...
           •  Worshiping Christ
           •  Celebrating Christ
           •  Honoring Christ

    So keep your focus on Christ this Christmas!
