CHRISTmas

Christmas. 

     This is not a holiday made solely to exchange gifts. It's not to give nor receive. It isn't even about seeing loved ones. Christmas isn't the birth of Christ either. Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ. It is found that Jesus was born in the late summer, probably August 22. We celebrate His birth because He became a human to save us from our sins so that we may experience eternal life in Heaven. He was thought of as a bastard child throughout his life and was mocked and attacked. He was hunted down and beaten. A 'crown' of thorns was pressed down on his head until it punctured the skin. He was whipped until the flesh on His back was ripped open. He was nailed to a cross by His wrists and ankles where He died.He went through torture for days without pause before giving up the Ghost. He did this for you, for him, for her, and for me. Because of this self sacrifice we are allowed a way into Heaven. Now, all we need to do is ask Him to forgive us for our sins, and accept Him as our Christ and Savior. He loves you more than any human can love you and has proven that by the torture and death He endured for you. He has opened the gate to your eternal paradise. Take the step and seek God's salvation today.
