About this listen

 CONCERNING advancement in religion, I have learned three lessons from the story of the Magi seeking the infant Christ. First, God is true to his own word. His word is something you can rest on, as men may stand on granite. It is in one of what are called the minor prophets, that the prediction of the birth of Christ is to be found. The prophetic word was uttered seven hundred years before the birth took place. God did not forget that word. Christ was born in Bethlehem. More than that — the mightiest earthly power was laid under tribute, that this word might be kept to the last letter. Mary the virgin was at Nazareth, a village of Galilee; but she was brought to Bethlehem in Judaea, and there the Lord was born. And how? Caesar Augustus was a link in the chain of that fulfilment. He issued a decree of universal taxing. The decree compelled the visit of Mary thither. Even Augustus, on the world's topmost throne, must lend his aid, though all unwittingly, to the accurate keeping of the divine promise. God's word is a sure word. Now it is right to reason from a certainty of the divine word here, to the certainty of it in other places. When God says that "unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness "; when we are told that "he that is willing to do his will, shall know of the doctrine "; we may be certain that behind such utterances as well, there is the unchangeable veracity of God. If we but yield our hearts and lives to such divine direction, we must get on into the shining. He who so carefully kept that word concerning the birth of Jesus, will keep also his other words.
