Why Celebrate Christmas?

 


When asked, “Why do you keep Christmas?” many might answer:

  • It is about goodwill.
  • It is about doing good.
  • It’s about family.
  • It’s about the kids.
  • It’s about giving to others.
  • It’s about making others happy.

These are all good things—but they are not good enough.

If Jesus Christ is not the reason we celebrate Christmas, then Christmas becomes nothing more than a misnamed social custom or cultural tradition.

Jesus, and Jesus alone, is the only true reason to celebrate Christmas.

In His birth, the incarnate Son of God has come—bringing salvation and revealing God’s perfect, divine love for all.

Christmas exists because Christ has come.

Benediction

May our hearts and lives center on the true purpose of Christmas—today, tomorrow, and forevermore. Amen.
