This morning we are continuing our Advent series as we look at the Gospel of Matthew. From the very first words of this book, Matthew begins painting a picture of Jesus as the coming King and Messiah of not only Israel but the entire world. The Christmas story is a celebration of the birth of the eternal King Jesus.
