Christmas in God's World

Good Morning to all. It's 2 weeks before Christmas, because it is I wanted to look at Christmas for a few minutes. My bible verse for Christmas comes from Luke 2:4-7, " 4And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. 6And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 7And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn." This verse tells the true meaning of Christmas, one that has a stable, donkeys, cows, sheep, and other animals. It also has a small baby, crying to be feed, the baby is Jesus Christ, the savior of this world. That verse is the true meaning of Christmas, not the Modern Christmas with all the trees, presents, santa, and raindeer. In God's World the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus birthday, and nothing else. In the modern world we celebrate the birth of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, but we do not celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ the savior of the world. I suggest we start looking at Christmas as the true birthday of Jesus, maybe then Christmas would mean a lot more then it does today. I do hope everyone has a very good birthday of Jesus day.
