Christmas Eve

 Christmas eve.

On this day Christmas eve, Christians all over the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The one we believe is the saviour of mankind. The apostle John referring to Jesus as the word states,

“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14.

What Christians believe about Jesus is summed up in what is known as the Apostles Creed. Although not written by an apostle of Christ it states in a nutshell what we as believers in Christ Jesus believe it states,

    The Apostles Creed

1.I believe in God the Father the almighty maker of heaven and earth

2. I believe in Jesus Christ God's on and only Son, our Lord and Saviour.

3. I believe Jesus was conceived by the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary

4. I believe Jesus suffered under Pontius Pilate; That He was Crucified, died, was buried. That he descended in hell.

5. I believe He rose again on the third day from the dead.

6. I believe that he ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty.

7. I believe Jesus will one day Judge the living and the dead.

8. I believe in the Holy Ghost

9. I believe in the Church which is the communion of the saints,

10. I believe in the forgiveness of sin.

11. I believe in the resurrection of the body.

12. I believe in life everlasting.

This is what all who truly believe in Christ believe. No Christian can force these beliefs on you. Each individual must decide for themselves if what is said her is true of false.

Thus I leave it here for you to decide for yourself.

Please think about it.
