true meaning of christmas

Christmas is just tomorrow! :) MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!! i'm very excited and happy to celebrate the birth of christ! but sometimes it's kinda sad to see other people celebrating christmas as an event of exchanging presents without knowing the true meaning of it.

FIR TREE

the pure green color of the stately fir tree remains green all year round, depicting the everlasting hope of mankind, all the needles point heavenward, making it a symbol of man's thoughts turning toward heaven.

STAR

the star was the heavenly sign of promises long ago. God promised a Saviour for the world, and the star was the sign of fulfillment of His promise

CANDLE

the candle symbolizes that Christ is the light of the world, and when we see this great light we are reminded of He who displaces the darkness

HOLLY LEAF

the holly plant represents immortality. It represents the crown of thorns worn by our Saviour. The red holly berries represent the blood shed by Him.

GIFT

God so loved the world that he gave his begotten son (john 3:16). Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.

BELL

lost sheep are found by the sound of the bell, it should ring mankind to the fold. The bell symbolizes guidance and return.

How many of us actually celebrate the true meaning of christmas?

For us who know the truth, let us celebrate

THE BIRTH OF CHRIST JESUS, THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD :)

BLESSED CHRISTMAS!!!!

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
