“She will give birth to a son and you are to name him JESUS, because he will save his people from their sins.” Mathew 1:21 “You will conceive and give birth to a son and you will call His name JESUS. He will be great and will be called the son of the Most High, and the LORD GOD will give Him the throne of His father David. He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and His Kingdom will have no end.”Luke 1:31-33

This is the definition of CHRISTMAS in the English dictionary “The annual festival of the CHRISTIAN Church commemorating the birth of JESUS celebrated on December 25 and now generally observed as a legal holiday and an occasion for exchanging gift. The celebration of the CHRISTIAN Church to commemorate the birth of JESUS. That is what CHRISTMAS is about to celebrate the birth of our LORD and SAVIOR, but as you can see form the definition it now generally observed as a legal holiday and an occasion for exchange of gifts. The key word that I am trying to draw your attention to is “now” we has now turned CHRISTMAS to a holiday and an accession of exchanging gifts , dressing up putting out the lights and tree and partying. Completely forgetting the purpose which is the celebration of the birth of JESUS CHRIST.

For those of you who have kids and those that do not have yet, please this CHRISTMAS take time and tell them about JESUS tell them about the birth of CHIRST and how he came for our salvation. Read them the stories form the bible that teaches us about JESUS . I am not saying that you should not give gifts or not tell them about Santa . If you can take all that time telling them about Santa and how he comes when they are sleeping to put the gifts under the tree . Why cant you tell them the important things about JESUS and how without him we can not enjoy this gifts and beautiful things that he has given us to enjoy.

“He was not the light, but he came to testify about the light. The true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world, and the world was created through Him, yet the world did not recognize Him. He came to His own, and His own people did not receive Him. But to all who did receive Him, He gave them the right to be children of GOD, to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, or of the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but of GOD.” John 1:8-14

Please people study about the light the true light and teach others so that we do not in our worldly way reject CHIRST.”we live in the world but we are not of the world” By all means please celebrate CHRISTMAS parties exchange gifts put out the lights and trees, but please while doing all this things remember the true celebration of CHRISTMAS.

Stay blessed. Remember “He that is in you is greater than He that is in the world.” Always celebrate JESUS.
