I don't think the wise men were guided by a star. Maybe an alien craft? Stars are not moving around to guide travelers and just stop above where Jesus was. Something else was guiding the wise men towards Jesus.

The bible they were guided by a star

Andrew - the spiritual lesson here is that God provided a guide - no doubt about that! Be it a star or something else in the sky over 2000 years ago is not the fundamental point. Yes, I believe God can do anything - and my belief is not governed by physical world universe limitations otherwise I would not believe that Jesus performed his many healings. May God be with you.

Don't forget, the Lord can do all things...what would prevent the Maker of the stars from moving one to guide the wise men to His Son's birth, worship and celebration. "With God, all things are possible."

Notice how you said, " I don't think". This isn't about what WE think my brother. This is about what God's word says. God's word is above YOU. YOU are NOT above IT. It is above me, and it is above all of us. It was a star that guided them because God said it was a star. Mercy, peace and love be multiplied to you in the name of our Lord Christ Jesus. Shalom.

Did God say it? Or rather the wise men did? Everybody knows that if a star is close enough to be followed, everyone around would be burnt completely. I'm Christian, but I doesn't mean I lost my intelligence. When you read Jesus teachings and its wisdom, that's God's word. However the Gospel has some stories anecdotes. For instance, the story of Herod killing John, is God's word? Or just an story?

Andrew, if God says in Matthew chapter 2, that the wise men were guided by the star, I believe God's word. I would be very careful in how you don't believe God's word. Very dangerous.

God said it and i believe it but even if i don't want to or i can't understand it, god said it so that settles it. - 2 timothy3:16-17 his truth will set us free now and eternally.
