How to begin a new path today

December 21, 2012

And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, [the wise men] departed to their own country by another way.

Matthew 2:12

We don’t know what happened to these wise men. They exit the biblical story as quickly as they entered it. We can suppose they came to saving faith and lived out the rest of their days as followers of Jesus. That’s my persuasion, but the story just doesn’t tell us.

But here’s the truth: What the wise men saw in the stars and in Bethlehem prompted worship of the Lord Jesus. And I believe that’s where their truth journey led them and their lives were never the same again. I think the light was turned on in their lives and they became new creations.

When you encounter the truth of Christ, you will be transformed. Your life will take on a new direction. These magi went home another way – I think that means both geographically and spiritually. New life in Christ takes on a whole new direction, a way of spiritual transformation. 

I don’t believe in accidents. It wasn’t an accident these men came to meet young Jesus and it’s not an accident you’re reading these words today. I want to tell you that wherever you are, you can become a different person right now. The truth of Christ is a truth that sets you free. And if you’ll trust in Him today, your life will begin a brand new path!

TRUST IN THE WORK OF CHRIST TODAY FOR FORGIVENESS OF YOUR SINS AND BEGIN A NEW PATH IN LIFE!

Get the best from 2012 to be your best in 2013


Dear Friend,

While many pastors shy away from addressing controversial issues, I sincerely believe you need to hear straight, “bulls-eye” biblical teaching on many of today’s hot topics. Not only to grow in your faith as a believer, but to give winsome, compassionate answers to the hard questions our culture is asking.

That’s why I want to send you a special new resource today – my CD series called The Best of 2012.

This series contains 10 of my most popular and compelling messages from 2012, and it’s a resource that’s sure to help you in 2013 because it includes messages such as, “Are All Religions the Same?”, “Lessons on Leadership,” and “What Is a Christian?”

The Best of 2012 is my gift to thank you for your donation to help PowerPoint continue to proclaim God’s Word and truth ’til the whole world hears. So please request your copy when you give today.

Thank you!
