Jesus Is the True Meaning of Christmas

We celebrate Christmas for Jesus, the Christian Today website reports today (Dec. 16,2025).


The word Christmas comes from "Christ's Mass,"which is a service celebrating the birth of Christ. It is the time to reflect on the entrance of the Messiah, the Lord and Savior into the world. 


Jesus is God's greatest gift to humanity.


Because of Adam and Eve's sin, humanity became disconnected from God (Romans 5:12). Every human being born the same brokenness (Romans 3:25). Out of this mercy and goodness, God gave His Law to show us the way back to Him, but with our sinful nature, we would never perfectly fulfill (Romans 3:20).Instead of saving us , he Law revealed our deep 


need for salvation and condemned us (Galaians 3:10).


But God did not give up on us.He sent His one and only Son --Jesus Christ (John 3:16). What he human heart longed for but could never earn -- reunion with God --was given freely in Jesus. God gave Himslf (John 11:2; Matthew 1:23). He did not us toclimbup to Him, He humbly came down to us: born in a manger, living among the overlooked, and offeing His life on the cross (Philippians2:6; Romans 5:8; Luke 2:7; John1:4).


Through Jesus, eveything changed. He is the ligh that entered our darkness and the darkness could not overcome Him (John 1:5). Where we weredead and condemned, we now have eternal lifeand salvation (Ephesians 2:1--5).


As we step into this Christmas season -- with presents, hanging lights, and enjoying the festive atmosphere -- keep in mind that without Jesus, there is no Christmas
