It’s not all about shepherd’s, it’s not all about manger scenes as we will call them. It’s all about God’s love. For you to celebrate Christmas honestly, you’ve got to deal with Jesus. That’s what this is all about!
John 3:16 KJV
You can buy all the presents you want to buy; give to
all the people you want to buy for. The question is “Did you really celebrate
Christmas or did you celebrate a holiday?” It is any wonder the world wants to
call it a holiday? We’ll tell you why? Because deep down inside they know it
has nothing to do with Jesus on their part. It has to do with money, materialism,
food, pleasure, parties, commercialized festival and paganism.
Christmas is all about God coming to earth in the
person of His Son Jesus Christ, living among men, dying on a cross, rising from
the grave, ascended to the Father, seated at His right hand to hear the cries
and pleas of His people and the sinners asking for forgiveness of their sin.
That’s what this is all about!
1 Corinthians 15:3-4KJV
When you read or hear the Bible story next time,
remember a lot of things where behind the scenes but significantly in the eyes
of God. If you are one of those persons you would have to say today “Well you
know I’ve never trusted Jesus, I have read or heard the story a few times, my
mother and father they’ve read it or heard it too, but I didn’t really think it
had very much significance for me”.
Let us tell you how significant it really is, if you
ignore it you will die and be eternally separated from God Almighty period! Hell,
a place of darkness with no
hope, no second chance, eternally separated from God.
That’s how significant it is.
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 KJV
God doesn’t want you to go to hell, neither do you
want to go there. To receive everlasting life as a free gift, repent, believe,
and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ alone, to save you and you will pass from
death to life. Then read the Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you
read. No matter what you have done, where you have been, where you are now. He
will transform your life and take you to heaven.
John 5:24 KJV
For all of us who are believers we would ask again,
how could you ever keep this message to yourself?
When you have a relationship with Jesus, you can have
access to God and enjoy all the benefits of His promises.
With Blessing in Christ,
David & Gay
