Matthew 2:10-11 (NLT)
10. When they [the wise men] saw the star, they were filled with joy! 11. They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Frankincense = Jesus as our High Priest
Myrrh = Jesus as the Suffering Servant or the
Sacrificial Lamb
Gold = The gift fit for a King
Game: Name that King
