Christmas is life’s greatest holiday

Christmas is life’s greatest holiday. Celebrate it rightly by keeping Jesus Christ in your Christmas. If you leave Him out of your celebrations you have no Christmas, because Jesus is the reason for celebrating Christmas.

The birth of our Lord Jesus Christ proved that God loved us so much that He was not willing to let us perish in our sins without giving us a way out.

 2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

 I at one time lived my life in sin and even a bit of wickedness and would have continued until I died in sin and perhaps much more wickedness if Gods love was not greater than my sins.

John Chapter 3

¹⁶For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

¹⁷For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

 1 Timothy 1:15

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

The death of our Lord Jesus Christ on a cross of death confirmed how much God loves us and how far He would go to save us from the consequences of our sins. I know that the world is looking for and many are expecting a savior to come in our present time to save us from our sin created mess .Some even look at the present president of the United States as if he were a savior. But the fact is there will never be another savior of mankind. Jesus Christ was the first and only savior that God will ever send. He still is and will always be a savior of the peoples of the world.

Jesus is the only one, who can save us from the results of our sins by,

 Colossians 2:14

Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

The resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the cold dark grave of death validated His power over life, death and the grave.

Luke Chapter 24
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

⁷ Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

When Jesus came forth out of deaths grave He proved to me His power to save sinners like me.

And when I was faced with two ways to live and two ways to die I chose to live in Jesus. I chose life over death.

I accepted Jesus as my saviour from the consequences of my sins to be free.

That is why I celebrate the birth of Jesus on Christmas day. He is the only one my debt of sin can pay.

He is the only one in this world of sin and strife that can give me hope of enduring life.

Christmas is life’s greatest holiday. Celebrate it rightly by keeping Jesus Christ in your Christmas. If you leave Him out of your celebrations you have no Christmas, because Jesus is the reason for celebrating Christmas.
