Are you looking to share the message of Christmas with colleagues in the workplace? Try this: As we enjoy the celebrations of this season, we wish to recognize what Christmas means for Christians. December 25th is the day in which Christians choose to commemorate the miraculous birth of Jesus Christ, who they recognize as God the Son and Lord and Savior of all the world, who came to extend an invitation to all people of all nations to find their eternal peace and salvation through a relationship with Him, and that anyone can take their rightful place in His kingdom reserved for all who open their hearts to Him. The Christmas story remembers the prophesied humble birth of Jesus to the Virgin Mary in Bethlehem, and, how God sent His angels (spiritual messengers) to announce Jesus birth, not to kings, or to the rich and powerful, but to poor shepherds, that they would find the savior of all the world, not in a palace, or leading an army, but with His mother and earthly father, who had to seek shelter in a manger (livestock stable). This message of humility reminds the rich to help the poor, for those who wield power and authority to do so with humility, and for the poor to understand that God is accessible and relatable to them. In Christian churches, the Christmas season is referred to as “Advent”, meaning, “the arrival”, and is a time cherished because of who Jesus Christ is and what he did: Fulfil ancient prophecies preach His message of faith, hope, peace, and love Perform miracles and supernatural healings Willingly give himself up to die on the cross at roughly 33 years of age, as the atoning sacrifice for all our sins Christmas can best be summed up in three words: “A cradle. A cross. And a crown.” Merry Christmas
