First to Worship

1 Amens

Amen

How do you respond when your enemies fall in worship before the Lord?  That question might sound like a hypothetical debate for us today, but for the original readers of Matthew’s gospel account they had to face it head on.  The very first people to engage in formal worship of the newborn king were from “the east.”  We might call them the “Babylonian worship team.”  The enemies and oppressors of the Jews were on their face in worship.  Wow!  What a paradigm shift!
