What is Christmas?

To me I believe that everyone is too wrapped up in the gifts and santa that they forget about the true meaning of christmas and why we celebrate it. While people may have their own reasons I believe it is to celebrate the birth of a saviour. My saviour. Unlike any other baby, the one born that night in Bethlehem was unique in all of history. He was not created by a human father and mother. He had a heavenly pre-existence (John 1:1-3, 14) and is the Son of the Father of Heaven and Earthe. But why would God do such a thing? Why did he send down his Son to die on the cross to die for our sins? It was because he loves us. So remember this as you celebrate and remember that it's not just about the gifts but something much greater. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
