Christmas card concept of Jesus however beautified by gold and glitter falls far short of presenting the true meaning of Christmas A woman looking at a manger scene in a store window indignantly exclaimed Isn It shame that they even had to drag religion into Christmas You smile at her Ignorance but are you sure that in thla highly com mercTaliied season your vision is clear What does Christmas really mean to all of us To the business man Christmas means Increased sales To the evergreen marketer it means the business season off the year To the child it means a full stocking or a long awaited bicycle The meaning of Christmas must mean more than this It is all summed up in the words of John 3 is For God so loved the world hat He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever in Him should not perish but have everlasting life In this verse I find the meaning of Christmas You can tool Let examine It together God is the giver of the greatest gift The all knowing all powerful God gave heaven best for earth a worst What a great giver Remember a gift a doubly precious if you know the giver When you know God His great Christmas gift becomes the unspeakable gift God Christmas gift to you Is His only begotten Son Remember a rednosed reindeer or a jolly fat chimney climber doesn make It Christmas Tinseled trees blinking lights are a part of Christmas but not the heart of Christmas The heart of Christmas is Jesus Christ the greatest gift ever given The true meaning of Christmas ia God imparting to human hearts the blessing of heaven a Saviour Christ the Lord All
