Includes the Christmas tree I find it quite interesting to observe that there are some similarities between the Christmas Tree and the Calvary Tree Cross where Jesus died for our sins Let us observe the Tree Itself Is the Christmas Tree a symbol of mankind way of trying coat oyer with glitter and glamor what the realities were on the Calvary Tree The tree which at Christmas Is glamorous becomes a gruesome reality of our true need at Easier of A Saviour Then there are the lights we use to decorate the Christmas Tree It can be a beautiful symbol of Jesus Christ the light of the World or it can represent the glitter of the world without Christ Yet the Calvary Tree does not have MAN MADE lights on It but a God Given human light to shed new hope into a dark world of sin Then we observe the presents under the Christmas Tree They can be representative of the gifts the Wisemen brought to the Baby Jesus and our gift to Him Or It can sent mankind giving once a year A ritualistic act not a repentant act or our selves to God The best gift to mankind may have been given at Christmas by the Birth of Christ but the supreme gift was I feel given at Easter by the death and resurrection of Christ for mankind sin St Matthew l And she shall bring forth a son and thou shall call His name im yarn their AWTRENTON DENTURE THERAPIST MAIN ST GEORGETOWN 8772359 is rolling the We felt it would be
