I’ve
asked 20 people “Why do you celebrate Christmas?”.
13 out of 20 people didn’t know why. It’s
true, few of us are aware why we celebrate Christmas and what’s the true
meaning in it. It is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ who died on
the cross to deliver us from our sins which is supposed to be why
we celebrate Christmas. Jesus is God in a flesh (John 1:1, 14, Colossians
2:9) and He is the next person of the Trinity, born by the Virgin Mary.

In
other words, it is a celebration where we celebrate the birth of Christ but SADLY,
the true spirit of Christmas becomes more for-profit holiday than being a sacred
and religious one. Unfortunately many people celebrate Christmas NOT for the
holiness of Jesus Christ who entered in our life and gave His life. Most of
them it is a time to give and receive gifts in form of materials things such as
money, going to the parties, drink, eat foods. I’m not against the way we
celebrate Christmas like attending parties, time for businesses making money, for
people to give gifts, for people to be excited, for parties, etc etc. Of course
it’s not wrong.
It
just that the true reason about celebrating Christmas is supposed to be Jesus
Christ for us to recognize and appreciate His birth being holy and died on the
cross for our sins and be saved from the righteous judgment of our Lord. Now, if
you celebrate Christmas without Jesus Christ, then you’re doing it wrong.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
