THE WISDOM OF CHRISTMAS (Matthew 2:1-2) Today, we will be talking about Christmas wisdom that we find in the Christmas story. Certainly, we need a lot of wisdom around this time of year. I need wisdom. I need wisdom to figure out what am I going to get my wife for Christmas. Now, that’s difficult for me. It really is. It is also difficult for her to buy gifts for me.

Today, we will be talking about Christmas wisdom that we find in the Christmas story. Certainly, we need a lot of wisdom around this time of year. I need wisdom. I need wisdom to figure out what am I going to get my wife for Christmas. Now, that’s difficult for me. It really is. It is also difficult for her to buy gifts for me. We go through this every year, even after 46 years of marriage, we still go through this.

But today, I want to talk to you about some wisdom that goes far beyond these mundane things and this worldly type of wisdom. I want to share with you some supernatural wisdom, how you can have some wisdom in your Christmas. Our text today is going to be in the book of Matthew, and it is going to focus on the story of the wise men coming from the East to bring gifts to the new King that has been born in Bethlehem. Now, everybody has heard this story since they were children, or they have seen it in plays put on at Christmas time. It is a very familiar story, and it is a story with supernatural wisdom.

The first thing we should know about these men is that they were exceedingly wise men. Why? Because they sought out the Lord Jesus Christ to worship Him. The wisest thing that you could ever do at Christmastime, or any other time, is to worship Jesus. I hope that doesn’t fall flat. I hope you don’t miss that. Because that is the bottom of all bottom lines. That is the wisest thing that anybody could ever do, to simply worship the Lord Jesus Christ.

There are a lot of people who want the joys of Christmas without the worship of Jesus. But, that is impossible! It is impossible! You may have a happy time, but you are never going to know the joys of Christmas until you learn to worship the Lord Jesus Christ.
