Let's Bless Jesus Christ This Christmas - Bill Koenig
Oswald Chambers wrote in My Utmost for His Highest for Dec. 25: 'Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,' which is translated, 'God with us' — Matthew 1:23 His Birth in History. "... that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God (Luke 1:35). Jesus Christ was born into this world, not from it. He did not emerge out of history; He came into history from the outside. Jesus Christ is not the best human being the human race can boast of — He is a Being for whom the human race can take no credit at all. He is not man becoming God, but God Incarnate — God coming into human flesh from outside it. His life is the highest and the holiest entering through the most humble of doors. Our Lord's birth was an advent — the appearance of God in human form.

What makes a Christmas merry? It's Christmas morning and my wife, Gena, and I are celebrating it this year with her family, about 30 in all, gathered at our home in the snow-blanketed woods. Like most of you, we wake up, exchange some gifts, gather around a warm fire, play games, share meals, and spend a day grateful that we have each other.
Tidings of Comfort and Joy
The protestations of the mainstream media notwithstanding, it is undeniably and demonstrably true that the institution of Christmas is under siege by secular culture in America. However, as annoying and petty as this is, it is merely a minor reflection on the wider, more serious war on Christians that is taking place worldwide:
