  <description>Frankincense it was a standard tool of worship used it in sacrifice for the priest. It represents the priest who was the middleman between God and man as being set apart for service. Frankincense was also used to present a pleasing odor to God, and it symbolized the people obedience in worship.
As we look to why the Maji presented this to Christ, we see that He is our priest, our go between, our mediator to God the father on our behalf. The Maji knew the Jesus was the ultimate high priest as foretold in scripture. You can accept Jesus today as your savior by taking the next step - burnthickory.com/next

  <description>When we read of the account of the birth of Christ in the bible, we see that it was not a silent night, and there were not just 3 wise men from the orient seeking Him. We see that these Maji are seeking the King of Kings to worship Him. 
In the same manner, we are not the same after our encounter with Christ. We must recognize His call as King, and bestow Him with worthy gifts, our best!
