The True Meaning of Christmas

-

 



    In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, us Christians often forget the real meaning behind it all, the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are celebrating his birth, which radically changed the whole of human history. we read in the Gospel of Luke:

Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

    Jesus Christ loves us so much that he came to earth in the form of a man, to live the perfect life, and to ultimately die for every sin you and I have ever committed. and it all started in a manger in Bethlehem. We need to give Jesus the praise He deserves this holiday season.

  Firstly, one thing must be said. The King James Only Movement is among the greatest mistakes in the history of the Church.       Christians today are getting harassed, bullied, lectured, and most importantly, divided in the work of Jesus Christ because of the Bible translation they use. Does that make sense to you?

This will be dealt with in greater detail in a future article, but let me give you just one example to show you what I mean. In the book of Romans, the phrase 'God forbid!' appears many times throughout the text. But what many people don’t know is that that phrase does not appear in the original Greek. Seriously, the word 'God', and the word 'Forbid' are not there. A literal translation would be 'may it not be so!' The Translators para

The Scroll Saga: the greatest Christian book series you have probably never heard of

       I first got acquainted with the Scroll Saga when it was recommended to me by a friend. I was skeptical at first, but once I got through the first few chapters, I couldn't put it down. After I finished book 1, I was so desperate to read the next book in the series that I purchased it immediately. And... It was even better than the first one! (That's saying something). The third book in the Scroll Saga is geared more towards young ladies, but it is still valuable and entertaining.      This series is SPECTACULAR. It has the perfect mix of drama, humor, and sometimes  startling truth. It really makes you think about the world, the Church, and the Christian life differently. The author, through clever allegorical scenes, displays societal problems that we often miss.      The Castle represents the modern  Church. The Oasis is the true Church that is aligned with God's will. The Scroll is the Bible. Dragons are sin. And warriors who fight them are Christians fighting the
