I wanted to take this opportunity to wish all of you a very merry Christmas.

I'm thrilled that we serve a God who is not indifferent to us. He loves us deeply. He has known us since before we were born and has been pursuing us throughout our loves. He has completed once for all everything that we need for salvation.

This is a time to rejoice and celebrate His amazing gifts of love, grace and forgiveness. Perhaps this is also a time for us to share those gifts with one another. If I have hurt anyone through my posts, I ask for your forgiveness and for an opportunity to be more charitable in the future.

To all who post here, whether our views are quite similar or very different, I love you and hope that you feel the love of Jesus Christ throughout this season. I wish you nothing but joy, peace and happiness throughout this holiday and the year to come. May God richly bless you!

Merry Christmas!

Our Lord Jesus is the True Bread (Christ-mas) sent down from heaven.

Luke 1:30-33
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. KJV

Heb 10:5
5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: KJV

1 Cor 11:28-32
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. KJV

2 Cor 9:15
15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift. KJV

And that's all that is or ever will be available to us, as we've learned enough from the law that it showed us our need for His redemption as our sole hope. We have nothing to add to His gift to us.
Merry Christmas!
Hashem bless you and yours thoughout this merry journey!
Just don't make a haystack out of chocolate pudding, okay? It ain't natural.
