They journeyed to Bethlehem. They found the Savior.
They discovered that the words of the angel and the message of the star were not misleading. It was not a hoax!
God's Son had been born. Immanuel had arrived!
He was there for all who would leave what they were doing and come to Him.
That is also true today.
In our day people talk as if it were hard to find Christ, or act as if it were hard to find their way through the superstitions of religion to the truth about God.
What a terrible misunderstanding!
To talk like that is to suggest that God is lost and that it is up to us to find Him.
He is not lost nor is the truth lost.
We are the ones who are lost, and the difficulties are in us and not in either God or His gospel.
Do not say the truth cannot be found.
Jesus said, "I am the....truth" (John 14:6).
Jesus is presented in Scripture.
If you want to find Him, you must search the Scriptures.
As you do, pray:"God, I am not certain what the truth is concerning religious things. But I believe that if You exist and if Jesus Christ is truly Your Son and the Savior You have sent into the world, then You should be able to show this to me as I study the Bible.
If Jesus is the Savior, I want to find Him. If I do find Him, I promise to be His disciple and serve Him all my days."
