# This right here is why we celebrate Christmas.
# This right here is the Jesus factor in Christmas for us -:
{Revelation 5:9-: And they sang a new song, saying,”Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood, you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation,}
# The Jesus factor is what makes all the difference in the way, we celebrate Christmas - just so, you know
# Christmas season - means different things to different people

# Celebrating Jesus at Christmas reminds us of all He came to do for us, in us and through us.
# The Christmas tree - reminds us of the Calvary tree called the cross.
# The Christmas lights - reminds us of the light of Christ that shines in the darkness
# The Christmas gifts - reminds us of God's greatest gift to us wrapped in human clothing, and placed in a manger
# So, you, see if you take Christ out of Christmas. All you will have is a sad and miserable mass.
# We cannot help but celebrate Jesus Christ. For He's the reason behind this season for us.
# I am here wishing you and your family a Jesus filled happy Christmas
