Christmas is celebrated every year to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ. This is not only the season to reconnect with family and friends and enjoy night parties or forgive each other. Christians should not forget that Jesus is the reason for this Christmas season. It is the acceptance and recognition of Jesus, the Son of God who came to live with human beings in flesh and to save them from the wrath of God. Christmas is also a time to reverently worship, glorify and praise the Almighty God for the birth of Jesus. The Bible says that He came to serve and not to be served and so did He and gifted grace to the world.
(Matthew 1:21)(NKJV)
“And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins.”
(Luke 2:11) (NKJV)
“For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord.”
Christmas season reminds us the great truth of incarnation. We easily forget truth so it needs repetition. So Christians celebrate Christmas or the birth of Jesus Christ and marvel over the incarnation.
Christmas is a time to come closer to Jesus and learn about the truth and be true Christians. Let Christmas be celebrated in true Christian spirit and let us abundantly be blessed.
Amen.
