Christmastime

Christmastime is a wonderful holiday to celebrate with our families and friends. Let us all remember that Jesus Christ is the reason for the season.

I would like to share this quote with you:

God's Gift

"Christmas gifts? There were none at that time. The Wise Men came later with their offering."

"But God now gave His gift to the world-


that of His Only Begotten Son. And this divine Son by His very birth gave Himself as the greatest Gift of all time."

"He would provide the plan for our salvation. He would give His life that we might rise from the grave and have a happy life in the eternities, forever. Who could give more?"

"What a gift this was think what it means to us! We can learn patience, devotion, and faithfulness such a Mary had. And like her Son we can follow the true gospel principles, being in the world but not of the world."

(Mark E. Peterson, "His Gift to the World, "New Era, Dec 2002, 8)

Me and my family would like to wish you all a very "MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

Christmas Songs - The Messiah (Handel)

"The Messiah" was composed by an English man named George Frederic Handel. Handel composed this in the summer 1741. The text is taken entirely from the King James Version of the Bible. He repeatedly revised the version due to singers, background music to what we have today. The Hallelujah Chorus is one of the most famous of all his songs. Handel completed this wonderful work in 24 days.


"The Messiah" is about "the anointed one" Jesus Christ. It covers the prophecies concerning the Christ, the birth, miracles, crucifixion, resurrection and ascension of Jesus, and the end times with Christ's final victory over death and sin. "The Messiah" is still performed today in many church and concert hall at Christmas time.

Isaiah quotes one of the most famous lines in the Hallelujah chorus.

Isaiah 9:6

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

From the Hallelujah Chorus Handel put it so correctly:

"Hallelujah for the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth. The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord, and of His Christ; and He shall reign forever and ever. King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. Hallelujah!

Jesus Christ is the King over the whole earth and he shed his drops of blood to save us from our sins. Now the choice is ours to "Receive our King!"

Christmas story - The 1914 Christmas Truce

During the winter of WW1 on the battlefields, a Christmas miracle took place. The Germans had been in a fierce battle with both the British and the French. All sides were in muddy, man-made trenches 6' - 8' deep. The enemy trenches were close enough to hear one another with a no-man's land in the middle.

On Christmas Eve the Germans sent small Christmas trees to their soldiers and they put up their small Christmas trees with candles at the top of their trenches. The German soldiers began to sing, "Stille nacht, heilige nach," "Silent night." The British soldiers began to join in with the German soldiers singing, "Silent night."

A German soldier on the opposite side of the British soldiers' trenches held up a sign saying, "You no fight, we no fight" and some Germans in broken English said, "We no shoot if you no shoot."

The British soldiers responded by holding a sign in the air saying, "Merry Christmas" and then a British soldier shouted, "Merry Christmas."

All the soldiers from the German, English and French sides came out of their trenches into no mans land where they shook hands with one another, exchanged Christmas greetings, gifts from home and smokes. On Christmas morning each side went out and helped each other bury their dead and remove their wounded safely into their own trenches. They also sang more Christmas carols and played a game of soccer in no man's land between them. Some of the enemy soldiers exchanged their addresses to see one another after the war.

This truce went on for a fortnight and the soldiers were friendly with each other. Their generals weren't happy with this and ordered them to shoot at each other again. The soldiers spent a few days wasting rounds of ammunition shooting at the stars in the sky instead of shooting the enemy soldiers in their trenches across the field. The military eventually transferred some of the soldiers to other areas to fight.

For a few moments there was peace on earth and good will toward men. Soldiers stopped fighting in WW1 after hearing a Christmas song, "Silent night." For those short moments a miracle took place which brought all the opposing enemy soldiers to a complete halt in remembrance of God's son!

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manager.

And suddenly there was with the angels a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, peace, good will toward men. (The Holy Bible; Luke 2: 11-14)


On Christmas Eve the truce brought all the enemy sides to a remembrance of their God so that they no longer had a disposition to fight with one another. May we all be touched by that miracle and by the remembrance of the birth or Our Lord and Our Saviour, Jesus Christ, the greatest man who ever lived on this earth, who is touching lives now just as he did then and from the beginning of time.



This story is based on the true facts of soldiers that participated in this wonderful event! A few truces happened during WW1. A movie was made to tell people about this marvelous miracle that transpired in the First World War also several books have been written. The movie is called "Joyeux Noel" and it is at movie rental stores in the foreign movies section. It is a must see for everyone and also shows actual events and letters in the extra section of the DVD. The DVD has English speaking in it.
