Christmas is all about Good News. But it’s not the good news of special gifts. It’s not the good news of a big meal. It’s not even the good news of spending time with friends and family.
Christmas is about the Good News of God’s love.
The Bible says that every single person is lost without God. Without God, you’re directionless. Your potential eternal impact upon the world is unrealized. You’re without real joy. Your eternity in heaven isn’t secure.
But the Good News about Christmas is that God sent Jesus to seek and save the lost. The Bible says, “There is only one God, and Christ Jesus is the only one who can bring us to God. Jesus was truly human, and he gave himself to rescue all of us” (1 Timothy 2:5 CEV).
If you’ve ever spent time in church, you’ve likely heard the word “salvation” many times. But you may not know what the Bible means when it uses that word. The word salvation is like a diamond. You can look at it from many different angles. Here are just a few:
Jesus came to Earth to give you the gift of himself. Too many people celebrate his birthday on Christmas without accepting his free gift of salvation. The gift goes unwrapped year after year after year. Don’t make that same mistake in your life. You were made by God and for God. Until you understand that, life will never make sense.
This Christmas, open up the most important present you’ve been given: a new relationship with God through Jesus.
