The Gift of Christmas Is Real
The message this December morning was clear: The Gift of Christmas Is Real. The service opened with the hymns “Victory In Jesus,” then everyone joined in on “Silent Night Holy Night” before the children performed a special for the congregation. Pastor Lowrimore reminded the congregation that the true gift of Christmas is not what the world has portrayed it to be.
Understanding the Gift
1 John 5: 1-5 reads: “The true gift of Christmas is JESUS and the peace, love, and joy He brings our hearts and lives. Jesus brings joy to the world and hope to our lives in the message of Christmas. Truly a Saviour has been born. This Christmas take a moment to reflect and share the true gift of Christmas that was freely given to you.”
The Greatest Gift of All
Christmas at its core is about the wonderful gift God made to humankind thousands of years ago: Jesus (John 3:16). As John R. Rice said, “you can never truly enjoy Christmas until you can look up into the Father’s face and tell Him you have received His gift.” Jesus Himself asserted that “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
