"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6)
What is so special about Christmas? Many believers make a big fuss about keeping Christ in Christmas. What is so special about this baby being born? Babies are born all the time. What is so special about the baby Jesus?
Religion is man's attempt to reach God. Man sets up rules and regulations in order to work and obtain the favor of God. The reality is that you cannot reach God through your good works, your good personality, your good deeds, your good education, or your good family connections.
The reason why the birth of Jesus is so significant is because it represents God coming to reach man. We could not reach Him, so He came in flesh to reach us!
So this Christmas, remember that it's not about that present under the tree, but it's about this Child that was born whose name is Jesus because He will save people from their sins (Matt. 1:21).
Have a Merry Christmas!
