Christmas Message

"I am the way, the truth and the life; no one comes to the 'Father' (God), but by ME." - Jesus

Merry Christmas!!

This is a day to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

December days are here round on the calendar to decorate evergreen trees in homes, shop windows and town squares, buildings wreathed in evergreens and holly, neighborhoods and business areas to be bedecked with lights and ribbons and all manner of decorations.

This is neither days of December nor days of winter. These are days of Christmas. Christmas is a social justice story—rich, poor, men, women, black, brown, white, straight, gay, citizen, alien, legal, illegal. All people—men, women, children, aged, strong, weak—are part of Jesus. The Christmas story ends somewhere around the place in the Gospel where Jesus says, ". . . whatever you did for one of these least of mine, you did for me" (Matthew 25:40).

Birth of Jesus

Joseph and Mary come from Nazareth in Galilee in the midst of winter over the mountains of Judea to the little town of Bethlehem; the stable cradles the babe; the ox and donkey look on while shepherds gather by night with their flocks; peace is proclaimed on earth; angels sing on high and shepherds hurry to worship the child.

According to Luke, an angel appeared to shepherds outside the town of Bethlehem and told them of Jesus's birth. Matthew tells how the wise men, called Magi, followed a bright star that led them to Jesus. - Gospels of Saint Luke and Saint Matthew in the New Testament. Peoples in northern Europe held festivals in mid-December to celebrate the end of the harvest season.

Wesley White says "His birth caused the world's greatest empire to move exactly according to God's plan."

What's on 'Christmas'?

Jesus was born to meet us and died to teach us. There is no other way to celebrate his birth other than understanding him and following what he said.

Be Helping Hand

When Jesus lived on this earth, many people wanted to hear him speak. Jesus did not only tell people the good news. He also helped people. He healed sick people, and sent away bad sprits. God gives power by himself.

Speaking to God!

Jesus Christ tells us how we should speak to God. God knows what I need before I ask him. I must not speak to God only when I am in trouble. I should speak to God at all times. I must pray to God for what he wants to happen, and not for those things I want to happen because God will not always give me what I want. But God wants to give me what I need."

How to live life?
Jesus said to the people: "Take care. Do not be greedy in anyway to get more and more things. A man’s life is not made up of the things that he has. Birds do not plant, cut, or keep any food. Yet God feeds them. Flowers, how they grow, they do not work or make cloth. When we were born, we brought nothing into this world. When we die, we can take nothing out of the world. Jesus Christ thought that true happiness comes from God’s Sprit, not from being selfish."

God forgives you if..

He said "God makes happy those people who know that they need him, who are sad, who are hungry and thirsty for what is right and good, who are kind, have clean hearts. If you are hard on others, they will be just as hard on you. If you forgive others, they will forgive you."

God's spirit
Paul a Christian leader and teacher who wrote several parts of God’s book, the Bible wrote: "If you receive God’s Spirit, these are the things which he will give you: love, joy, peace and patience. He will help you to be kind, good, true, and gentle. He will help you to keep your body under control."

He died that we might be forgiven;
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
Saved by His precious blood.

The Lord Jesus was punished in his place; the Christian has received forgiveness of signs. Not only has he been forgiven, but also he has been given a new life-eternal life.

Christ died for us. That is how we know what love is. We also should be willing to die for our brothers. He sees that his brother needs some. If he does not want to his brother, does he love God? We must not talk about loving people. We must show we love people by what we do for them. We must really love them. I must leave what I myself want to do. Everyday I must be ready to die and go with Jesus. If I try to save my life I will lose it. But if I give up my life for God sake I will find it. What good will I do, if I get the whole world for myself but lose my life.

God will show you the plan he has for your life. Sometimes he does this in a special way. But other times he shows you just one or two small things to do first. Then he leads you step by step all the way.

None other than a simple message. " Jesus's life itself is a great message to all of us."
