A Better Kingdom
This morning we continue the series begun last week on the book of Esther. It is a story involving real people and real events at a certain place and during a certain time in history. The Apostle Paul tells us that Israel’s history is recorded in the Old Testament to serve us as examples and warnings (I Corinthians 10:11). Today we will again be confronted with the pride and indulgence of King Xerxes and compare that with the humility and service of another King: Jesus.
