Kicked off Christmas in 3G with The Grinch also known as Herod. I'll give you some of my favorite points from the message...(btw parentheses are mine)...
...Herod was determined to kill off all of his competition (how often do we try similar things with those we compete against? We try to kill em off or tear them down with our words usually).
...God isn't taken by surprise by what happens here...and it's all public knowledge in heaven.
...God used the ordinary and sensible instead of the miraculous when he told Mary and Joseph to flee.
...Herod was insanely suspicious and paranoid (Lord have mercy, how often are we suspicious of others thinking the worst of them. May we realize how Herod-like we are when we act like that).
...I loved how Eddie pulled from Revelation (how the Word goes together from Genesis to Revelation!!).
...Remember in The Grinch cartoon and movie how Grinch thought all the Whos would be upset when all was taken but they still rejoiced and it led to the transformation of the Grinch himself??? (what a testimony we can be to others when we show them it's not the stuff, it's the Who Himself that makes Christmas Christmas!). As Eddie said "it's never too late to be transformed even for a grinch.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
