The Man Who Had PTSD

Herod’s post-Christmas stress is no harmless holiday flatness. Hearing that a true King of the Jews has been born shakes his grip on power. He pretends he wants to worship Jesus, then orders children killed when the eastern visitors do not return. Yet God preserves the child, and Herod’s dynasty cannot stop Jesus’ kingdom. Jesus wins the battle against sin and evil as the King who gives life, so empty words of worship must give way to wholehearted trust. Bible Reference: Matthew 2 Preacher: KJ Tromp
