Do you have your Christmas story straight?
Watch this video to see if you’ve fallen for any of these Christmas myths.
Fact or Fiction?
- Jesus was born on December 25th
- Mary rode into Bethlehem on a Donkey
- There was no room for Joseph and Mary in the Inn
- Three Wise men brought gifts to Baby Jesus
Santa Claus only gives good gifts to good children (ok, that one is not in this video)
When I was in Bible college a lot of students wanted to debate on rather or not Jesus would come before, during or after the tribulation. I usually spent my time evangelizing and didn’t enter into the conversations because all I knew was that Jesus would come again as he promised and I wanted to get the word out about Salvation through Jesus.
I also know this fact. Jesus came to this earth. God Gave his Son as a Gift to all mankind. It was the ultimate gift. I like to celebrate Christmas by giving gifts also. Which, by the way, we’re doing right now- Christmas Gifts in Chiapas, Mexico
It may not be that important rather or not you think Jesus was born in a stable or in a cave. It is important that Jesus came.
11For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. (Luke 2:11-14, King James Version)
I hope you enjoy this Christmas season as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
God Bless you and your family.
Ed, Ana, and Cristi
p.s. I really did think Mary rode in on a donkey!
