The Gospels of Matthew and Luke each has a visitor to the baby Jesus in order to worship him.
Matthew has the magi ('wise men') follow a star to worship Jesus and bring him gifts.
In keeping with its theme of poverty, Luke has poor shepherds visit Jesus to worship him. The shepherds knew nothing of the star that Matthew has the magi follow, but were instead told of Jesus' birth by angels.

According to Luke's gospel the Magi visited the baby Jesus?
Actually, the visit of the Magi to the baby Jesus is not recorded in Luke's gospel but in the Gospel of Matthew. The story can be found in Matthew 2:1-12. Luke's gospel includes the nativity story, but it focuses more on the shepherds who visited Jesus after his birth.
Is it possible for Jesus to have been born during the winter?
A:Many children are born during the winter. Luke's Gospel qualifies this, because it talks of shepherds watching their flocks at night, out in the open pastures. It has been pointed out that shepherds would never have kept their sheep outside at night time in the winter, thus ruling out Jesus having been born in winter. However, the story of the shepherds finding Jesus in a manger is only in Luke's Gospel. Matthew's Gospel has an entirely different nativity story in which Bethlehem is the home town of Mary and Joseph, so Jesus is born in a house, not a stable. The shepherds do not visit Jesus in Matthew, so he could have been born at any time of the year.
Why doesn't Matthew mention the shepherds in his nativity story?
Luke's gospel provides details of events that occurred on the night Jesus was born (including the visit of the shepherds) that Matthew's gospel doesn't. Conversely, the visit of the wise men as recorded in Matthew is not mentioned in Luke.The shepherds see Jesus as a newborn babe in the manger in Bethlehem (Luke 2:16). When the wise men arrive, Matthew says they come into a house and see the young child with Mary His mother (Matthew 2:11). By this time, Jesus is as much as two years old, as evidenced by Herod's slaughter of all the male children in Bethlehem and the surrounding area "from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men." (Matthew 2:16, NKJV).Nativity scenes that depict the shepherds and the wise men together with the newborn Jesus combine details of the two accounts. Unfortunately, this is scripturally inaccurate and a cause of confusion.
