1984. Part-Two.

Ruling Families.

We are using the account from Matthew chapter two to look at the power and the fear that comes upon corrupt leadership, wither it is the one party government or the ruling Royal family,

The thing that most comes to the fore in these generational ruling families is that of paranoia, the fear that everyone big and small is out to get them. As we have seen over recent years many of these Dictatorships across the world have fallen, Saddam Hussien, Colneal. Gadaffi, and the list goes on.

All of them, including King Herod were evil in their intent, behind respectability and those involved such as the Wisemen and Joseph were told to flee from the forthcoming Genocide.

Matthew 2:3-7,  12-23.

Virgin Birth. Part-Three.

‘Don’t be afraid!

We are twice told in the story of the birth of Jesus by Angels not to be afraid. It is a natural thing for humans to be afraid, when something happens that we do not understand. Joseph was perplexed, confused, when he found his wife to be Mary pregnant. Matthew 1:20.  The Shepherds out in the fields were startled by the appearance of Angels in the middle of the night.  Luke 2:8-20.

But look at the contrast here to the paranoid king Herod, what did he do with his fear?  Matthew 1:16-18,  Jeremiah 31:15.

Virgin Birth. Part-Two.

Many people today disbelieve what the bible has to say, they claim it is a book of fables and old  ideas from peoples and cultures of ancient times. They claim that these moral codes do not fit into modern society and practice, because the writers of the bible lived in ignorance?

But we cannot get away from the historical facts, that have been recoded in relation to Christo-Judaism. Jesus the promised Messiah was born to a Virgin and King Herod did carry out a massacre of all boy children within his kingdom up to the age of two years-old. Because of his paranoia that a king was born, which could take his power base from under him. This king was recognized by three great eastern empires of the day.

Matthew 2:1-2,  7-9,  10-11,  13-18, Jeremiah 31:15.
