Enemy of the State - January 6, 2008

Action/suspense movies go something like this: innocent man is pursued for something he didn't do and is ultimately vindicated or guilty man is pursued and is finally caught and brought to justice. The story of Jesus' birth is marked by suspense - when, where and finally, what? What will it mean? Even at birth, baby Jesus was considered an "Enemy of the State" and was relentlessly pursued until He finally paid the ultimate price.
