    Herod: Skipping Christmas

    Passage: Matthew 2:1-23

    Preacher: Tim Badal

    Series:The Cast of Christmas

    Detail:

    Skipping Christmas...

    1.  Leaves you empty.
         Like Herod, nothing will fill us.
           •  Power won't
           •  Possessions won't
           •  Prestige won't

    2.  Makes Jesus an enemy.
         Never forget that...
           •  Since Jesus is in charge...
           •  He will always compete against our selfishness...
           •  And cause us great contempt.

    3.  Always ends badly.

    Points to Ponder
         Instead of skipping Christmas, start celebrating it.
         This involves...
           •  Submitting to His Lordship.
           •  Following His lead.
           •  Trusting when disaster looms large.
