JESUS CHRIST is the most worthwhile GIFT in this world for he is GOD’S LIGHT AND SALVATION required to obtain EVERLASTING LIFE on the LAST DAY (Luke 2:30-32) (Matthew 24:36) (Revelation 11:18)!

Many of us are much worst off financially today than last Christmas due to the global coronavirus pandemic. However, we must remind ourselves that our life as a human being is NOT measured in the abundance of things we possess in this world.

Our Lord JESUS says: “TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS: for a man’s life [CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS] which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).

On the LAST DAY when JESUS returns to this earth for the DAY OF JUDGMENT at the END OF THE WORLD NO AMOUNT OF MONEY ON THIS EARTH WILL BE ABLE TO PURCHASE ETERNAL LIFE TO SAVE A SOUL! The ONLY SAVIOR is JESUS CHRIST!

“For God so loved the world, that [HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever [BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD] not perish, but [HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE] (John 3:16).

“Forasmuch as ye know that [YE WERE NOT REDEEMED WITH CORRUPTIBLE THINGS], as silver and gold, but [WITH THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, AS OF A LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT]” (1 Peter 18–19).

Now, therefore, as THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE THINGS THAT ARE ETERNAL IS THROUGH JESUS CHRIST who died for us; for this purpose then WE SHOULD LIVE UNTO HIM AND NOT UNTO OURSELVES (2 Corinthians 5:15).

“[JESUS CHRIST] the same [YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8) says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have [ETERNAL LIFE]: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not [COME TO ME, THAT YE MIGHT HAVE LIFE]” (John 5:39–40).

“Therefore doth my Father love me, because [I LAY DOWN MY LIFE, THAT I MIGHT TAKE IT AGAIN]. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. [I HAVE POWER TO LAY IT DOWN, AND I HAVE POWER TO TAKE IT AGAIN]. This commandment have I received of my Father” (John 10:17-18).

“I am the resurrection, and the life: [HE THAT BELIEVETH IN ME, THOUGH HE WERE DEAD, YET SHALL HE LIVE]. And [WHOSOEVER LIVETH AND BELIEVETH IN ME SHALL NEVER DIE]. [BELIEVEST THOU THIS]?” (John 11:25-26).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, [IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYING, HE SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH] (John 8:51). 

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

“These things have I written unto you that [BELIEVE ON THE NAME OF THE SON OF GOD; THAT YE MAY KNOW THAT YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE], and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:13).

“The LORD is [MY LIGHT AND MY SALVATION; WHOM SHALL I FEAR]? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” (Psalm 27:1).

JESUS also says: “[I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD: HE THAT FOLLOWETH ME SHAL]L not walk in darkness, but shall have the [LIGHT OF LIFE]” (John 8:12).

“[IF ANY MAN WILL COME AFTER ME], [LET HIM DENY HIMSELF], and [TAKE UP HIS CROSS DAILY], and [FOLLOW ME]” (Luke 9:23).

“[AS LONG AS I AM IN THE WORLD, I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD]” (John 9:5).

“[FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK]; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

“I am with you alway, even unto the [END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

JESUS is the only REASON for the SEASON of CHRISTMAS because to OVERCOME this world to get to the WORLD WITHOUT END we must BELIEVE that JESUS is the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD (John 3:15-18) “The Christ of God” (Luke 9:20) and “Salvation of God” (Luke 2:30-32).

“[FOR YE ARE DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD]” (Colossians 3:2–3).

“[FOR SINCE BY MAN CAME DEATH], by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, [EVEN SO IN CHRIST SHALL ALL BE MADE ALIVE]” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22).

“[IN THE BEGINNING] was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made” (John 1:1-3).

“[AND THE] Word [WAS MADE FLESH], and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of [THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER],) full of [GRACE AND TRUTH]” (John 1:14).

“[WHO IS HE THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD]? this is he that [CAME BY WATER AND BLOOD, EVEN JESUS CHRIST; NOT BY WATER ONLY, BUT BY WATER AND BLOOD]. and it is the spirit that beareth witness, because [THE SPIRIT IS TRUTH]” (1 John 5:5-6).

“He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

[AND THIS IS THE RECORD, THAT GOD HATH GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON].

He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

[THESE THINGS HAVE I WRITTEN UNTO YOU THAT BELIEVE ON THE NAME OF THE SON OF GOD; THAT YE MAY KNOW THAT YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE], and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:10-13).

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that [OVERCOMETH] shall not be hurt of the second death” (Revelation 2:11).

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that [OVERCOMETH] will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the [PARADISE OF GOD]” (Revelation 2:7).

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. [I AM THE ROOT AND THE OFFSPRING OF DAVID], and the bright and morning star” (Revelation 22:16).

“He which testifieth these things saith, [SURELY I COME QUICKLY]. Amen. [EVEN SO, COME], Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Revelation 22:20-21).

We celebrate on CHRISTMAS DAY the birth of JESUS CHRIST the “Christ of God” and “Salvation of God” (Luke 9:20) (Luke 2:30-32). “For [GOD SENT] not [HIS SON INTO THE WORLD] to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:17).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16, 18).

“[FOR THE PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are [SAVED] it is the power of God. For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to [SAVE THEM THAT BELIEVE]” (1 Corinthians 1:19, 21).

Do you BELIEVE in JESUS CHRIST?

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:23-24).

“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation” (Hebrews 9:28).

God sent his only begotten Son JESUS to this earth for “a light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel” (Luke 2:32).

Jesus, our Lord, Savior and King who appointed the Apostle Paul to be the apostle to the Gentiles said: “For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office” (Romans 11:13). “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counseller? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?  For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen” (Romans 11:33-36).

M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S!

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever” (Isaiah 9:6–7).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). “Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

“To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

We celebrate of the utmost significance the birth of Christ for he is the Salvation of GOD.

God sent Jesus to this earth for “a light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel” (Luke 2:32).

“In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him” (1 John 4:9). “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). “To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

We celebrate of the utmost significance the birth of JESUS CHRIST because he is the salvation of God (Luke 2: 25-26).

BELIEVE in JESUS because God sent his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON to this earth for the glory of his people Israel and a light for the Gentiles (Luke 2:32).

“Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:5–6).

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever” (Isaiah 9:6–7).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8).

“To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

JESUS says: “‘IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE’” (Acts 20:35).

Walking down any busy shopping street in any Town or City, a person may be deceived into thinking that people having lots of money and buying numerous gifts are the only ones enjoying the holiday season.

However, any celebration of the Christmas Season without having GOD and his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS CHRIST is an absolutely waste of time (John 3:15-18). 

“For God so loved the world, that [HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” (John 3:16-17).

We must all be reminded of these words of our Lord, Savior and King, saying: “‘IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE’” (Acts 20:35).

“TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).

We must be reminded during this Christmas Season to GIVE GOD THANKS in the name of JESUS for his BLESSINGS in our lives.

DO NOT BE DECEIVED by the expensive mansions on the hillside; exotic sports cars; private art collection; penthouses in the city; weekend cottages; private island villas; mega yachts; private jets; and the list goes on the epitome of the lifestyle of the rich and famous.

However seemingly glamorous, gratifying, and glitzy images of lifestyle of wealth and riches may appear, it is by no means a paradigm of life.

“Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble” (Psalm 41:1).

This Christmas let us support the weak, give gifts to the poor and needy; “…and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, ‘[IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE]’” (Acts 20:35).

“Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).

“For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”

Our Lord Jesus also expressed that we must not “Let the cares of this world, and the [DECEITFULNESS OF RICHES], and the lusts of other things [ENTERING IN, CHOKE] the word [AND IT BECOMETH UNFRUITFUL]” (Mark 4:19).

“The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever” (Isaiah 40:8).

“[O GIVE THANKS] unto the LORD; [FOR HE IS GOOD: FOR HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOR EVER]” (Psalm 118:29).

“[GIVING THANKS ALWAYS FOR ALL THINGS] unto God and the Father [IN THE NAME OF] Our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:20).

“Grace be with all them that [LOVE] our Lord Jesus Christ in [SINCERITY]. Amen” (Ephesians 6:23-24).

“And let the [PEACE OF GOD RULE IN YOUR HEARTS], to the which also ye are called in one body; [AND BE YE THANKFUL]” (Colossians 3:12-15).

“Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen” (Philippians 4:20).

Thanksgiving Colossians 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts…and be thankful.

JESUS CHRIST is GOD’S GIFT to HUMAN BEINGS (Matthew 2:1-2, 10-11) (Luke 2: 25-26) (John 3:15-18).

In the midst of glitzy images portraying the pride of life in this world, especially during the . holiday season, we must keep focus FAITHFULLY our Lord, Savior and King – JESUS CHRIST who is SALVATION OF GOD, GOD’S GIFT TO THE HUMANITY (Romans 5:18).

This holiday season let us remember and spread the word that God sent Jesus to this earth for “[A LIGHT TO LIGHTEN THE GENTILES, AND THE GLORY OF THY PEOPLE ISRAEL]” (Luke 2:32).

We must also remember these words by the Apostle Paul, not only during this holiday season but EVERY DAY of our lives: “But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and [HE WHICH SOWETH BOUNTIFULLY SHALL REAP ALSO BOUNTIFULLY].  Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [SO LET HIM GIVE; NOT GRUDGINGLY, OR OF NECESSITY: FOR GOD LOVETH A CHEERFUL GIVER]” (2 Corinthians 9:6-7).

“Therefore as by the offense of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the [FREE GIFT] came upon all men unto justification of life” (Romans 5:18).

“For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22).

“For God so loved the world, that [HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:16-17).

“[FOR OF HIM, AND THROUGH HIM, AND TO HIM, ARE ALL THINGS]: to whom be glory for ever. Amen” (Romans 11:36).

JESUS IS COMING at the END OF THE WORLD on the LAST DAY for the DAY OF JUDGMENT (Matthew 24:36, 25:31-34, 41, 46) (Acts 17:30-31) (Revelation 11:18, 20:12–15).

JESUS’ KINGDOM IS IN HEAVEN!

Jesus says: “MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD” (John 18:36).

“The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).

“Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3).

“[FOR I CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN], not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38).

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall [THE END] come” (Matthew 24:14).

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But [LAY UP FOR YOURSELVES TREASURES IN HEAVEN], where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:19-21).

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but [MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY]” (Matthew 24:35).

“[BLESSED ARE THEY THAT HEAR THE WORD] of God, and keep it” (Luke 11:28).

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: [THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK UNTO YOU, THEY ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE]” (John 6:63).

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).
