An epiphany, revelation
On the day of visitation
His Name prospered in the East
A majestic Prince of Peace
–
Three Kings, Theophany
Magi, prophesier
Unfolding gifts at will
The star delivering them near
–
A young child with Mary
In her home with care
The wise men in extravagance
Oils, ointment made bear
–
Prostrate, outstretched
Adorning in posture
For The King was now flesh
For certain not an imposture
–
Likewise the fake
King Herod in his audacity
Directed the men post-visit
To activate His infanticide fantasy
–
But in a dream warned they
An angel of the Lord descended
Flee to your nether parts
Herod’s heart demented, tormented
–
Thus Mary and Joseph fled
The Israeli retreated before
To satisfy the biblical prophecy
A Nazarene, Bethlehemite no more
Holy God,
We pray to reveal Your Lordship to the nations. We pray to
bear witness of the Truth as the wise men did as they returned to their
provinces. Most Holy God, may our observation of the Christ Child in our hearts
be a witness to save the masses in His Blood and Body. For in His infancy Jesus
laid the foundations of salvation, the inception of redemption. In this Child
was liberty. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Published by Matthew Pope
A graduate of Belmont Abbey College, a Catholic, private institution, Matthew received his Bachelors of Arts degree in Theology in May of 2012. Upon registering for pastoral training in August of 2013, he was formerly a Master of Divinity student at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, pursuing the Evangelism program. With a transparent calling from God, his life dramatically changed as he received confirmation into The Catholic Church in November of 2016. Matthew's passion rests in serving the nations with the hope of The Gospel. Author of his lay-ministry, Even Unto The End Of The World, which was established on November 12, 2013, he has also produced his previous books: In Doctrine, Uncorrupt (which was released on February 15, 2014) and Assembled With One Accord (published on December 1, 2015), and is currently writing and planning for following books to come.
With a revelatory vision, Matthew intends to encounter the culture and Christendom with truth. In addition, he intends to draw forth the rudiments of the Most Holy Catholic Faith to transform all Christian denominations into The One Church. Matthew confessed Jesus Christ as Savior at age seventeen, impressed with the desire to enter the ministry, in March of 2008. A native of Shelby, North Carolina, he was born on May 28, 1990. He now resides in Wake Forest, North Carolina where he has been actively writing since late 2013.
