Jesus as Priest

As we examine the Matthew 2 account of the birth of Jesus and the supporting story of the magi from the east who visited. Their arrival sparked the intrigue about his child and their gifts point toward Jesus’ true nature, identity and calling that would play out in his life. Jesus came as the great high priest who would offer a sacrifice once and for all cleansing our sin and creating a way to have a restored right relationship with God. (The gift of frankincense)
