Christmas Eve 2025

In this sermon, we explore the profound significance of the gifts presented to Jesus by the wise men—gold, frankincense, and myrrh—and their symbolic meanings in relation to Christ's kingship, priesthood, and sacrificial role. The message delves into the unexpected ways Jesus, the King of Kings, was revealed to the world, challenging traditional expectations of royalty. Through the lens of biblical passages, the sermon examines the varied responses to Jesus' birth, from dismissal and opposition to worship and adoration. It encourages reflection on personal responses to Jesus' kingship and highlights the importance of wholehearted devotion, drawing parallels with the widow's offering in Mark 12:41-44.
