So this is Christmas...

Be not like Herod, who responds in hostile opposition to the newborn king!

Be not like the apathetic chief priests and scribes, who know the truth of where to find the Christ, but do not act upon it themselves!

May you respond instead like the magi, who seek after and fall down in adoration of our Saviour King, Jesus Christ!

You are the Greatest...

Matthew 11: 11 Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

Is it individual or collective?
>>>OT/Prophets or NT /Christians?
>>> Or John or Daisy?

and so should I say "We" are the greatest?

because:
>>> of our place in history,
>>> of our confidence/assurance in His resurrection,
>>> we are not under the burdensome law but light yoke of JC?

OR is Jesus the greatest?

(today in TAT we side stepped this question saying: doesn't matter too much, and we shouldn't be like the disciples and question who... but still it is interesting that Jesus brings it up!)
