King of Kings
 
 
In Matthew chapter 2 we see three sets of kings.  We have the wisemen (or magi) who some claim are kings from the east.  We have Herod who is a puppet king of the Romans. And we have Jesus the Messiah; the one true king.  In this series we take a look at this game of thrones and learn why Jesus is the one true king of kings.

King of Kings 4: Facing An Uncertain Future
We all face an uncertain future, but we forget that Jesus' family once faced an uncertain future as well.  They had to escape the threat of death at night and go to Egypt.  They had to return to another town because the threat remained even after they came back.  Even then they did not know what awaited their son Jesus who would eventually die for the sins of humanity on the cross.  We all face an uncertain future, and in 2021 the same threats we faced the year before will remain.  Where do we place our trust?  We place our trust in the one who raised from the dead and is coming again.  In the end we win... so in 2021 we also win.

    King of Kings 3: A King You Can’t Kill

    are we willing to surrender our desires to be our own king or are we going to reject the authority of the one true king in order to hold on to control over our lives. At some point we must realize that we are not the king of our life and trying to hold onto kingship will be our demise. True life, true freedom, is found in worshipping the one true king. And as we will see this morning; you really have one of two choices here. You must either die to your self or you must try to kill Jesus.

    But you say, didn't Jesus actually die? And I'm glad you brought that up. He did die... but not because someone killed him, rather because he laid his life down so that we could be saved. The only way Jesus could die is if he allowed it. And then just as quick as he died... he took his life back up again and was resurrected from the dead.

    King of Kings 2: Worship Fit For A King
    The wisemen travelled thousands of miles over many days based on thousand year old prophecies just for a chance to worship the One True King of Kings.   They left everything they knew, and everyone they loved to go worship the Messiah.  While Israel itself was troubled over his arrival, wisemen from another country did everything they could to be a part of his nativity.  Those who recognize that Jesus is King of Kings will stop at nothing to worship HIm.  We don't worship out of convenience or obligation, we worship out of obedience.
