Glory to God
Luke’s gospel records this as happening on the day Jesus was born,
"And in the same region there were shepherds out in th field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And the angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear,
And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord.
And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying.
"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!"
Luke2:8-14.
Today is Christmas day the day when Christians like myself celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus.
We know Jesus was not necessarily born on December 25th. That however is unimportant. What is important is that we celebrate the day God reached down to mankind offering anyone who would believe in Him eternal life.
It is my prayer this day that all who reads this and my other blog postings that they will at the very least consider reading the New Testament and learning for themselves what The Bible writers believed about Jesus.
It is my hope and prayer also that all who read this will accept Jesus into their heart.
Please think about it.
