Christmas Time

Scripture Reference: Luke 2:4-7 KJV

During Christmas Time because of traditional celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, it is easy to miss what Christmas is all about. Christmas is more than giving of gifts, cards, parties, wishing another Merry Christmas or have Christmas tree etc. Christmas is about Salvation of the people. Jesus Christ was born to save people from their sins. The name Jesus means a Saviour. Christ means one anointed to be God's Messiah to his people.

What is Christmas anyway? Christ-Mas it is two words put together "Mass for Christ"! Mass is people. Therefore Christmas means people are gathering together for Christ the Lord, Saviour, the Son of God and King. What to do during Christmas time? 1. Give out the gospel ( share the word of God) see Luke 2:11, 2. Praising and worshipping God, see Luke 2:13-14, 3. to consider or meditate what God have done for sending Jesus Christ, see Luke 2:19 and 4. To re-dedicate our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ ( to give ourselves wholly to him) see Luke 2:34-35
