There are 2 Kingdoms clearly on display in Matthew 2: The Kingdom of Herod (This World) and The Kingdom of Jesus (Heaven)
1. Earthly vs Heavenly (Matt 2:1-6 )
2. Worry vs Worship (Matt 2:7-12)
3. Obstinate vs Obedient (Matt 2:13-18)
4. Death vs Life (Matt 2:19-23)
We are called to advance the Kingdom of God and resist the influences of the Kingdom of this World.
