Ephesians 5:15 Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, 16 making the most of your time, because the days are evil. 17 So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
The Magi’s Wisdom was found in what they did! How They Lived!
1. The Wise Seek Christ First: Jesus is Wisdom!
1 Corinthians 1:30 But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption, 31 so that, just as it is written, “LET HIM WHO BOASTS, BOAST IN THE LORD.
2. The Wise Worship Him Only: He is Their Lord and King.
Romans 12:1-2 This is Your Worship!
3. The Wise Give!
¬ They Give Appropriate Gifts of Value.
Gold – Kingship
Frankincense – Priesthood!
Myrrh – An Embalming Ointment signifying His death!
¬ They Give Out of Their Worship!
4. The Wise Hear God and Follow God!
Matthew 7:24-27 – The Wise and the Fools!
