The Appointed time!

The race is not for the swift nor for Him that run. This is a popular bible verse that is common to bible scholars and teachers. When the three wise men decided to search for the King that was born, to them it was the appointed time and it was time for God to announce His presence on earth. This three wise men were actually bible scholars who had knowledge of history and records. They took advantage of their knowledge and been led by God travelled hundreds of miles in search of their redeemer and King. This three wise men probably where from Greece because they came from a far country. Eventually, they saw Christ and presented their gifts. However, the three wise men must have considered these bible facts before setting out- that the Messiah shall appear as a star from Judah; that the Messiah will be born in Bethlehem and 3 AD was the appointed date given by Daniel the prophet.
