"A Merry Christmas, Uncle! God save you!" cried a cheerful voice.
"Bah!" said Scrooge. "Humbug!"" - Charles Dickens (A Christmas Carol)
You can “humbug” the holiday, the giving of gifts, Santa, and the feast; but please do not “humbug” the Holy One. The message of Christmas can be lost in the getting and giving of gifts but we must not misplace or reject the Messiah, the savior, and Lord.
So allow me to make it clear. A merry Christmas begins with embracing Jesus as your redeemer because the purpose of his coming was to save me and you from our sins. God’s salvation was made possible by Jesus, who took our sins on himself and died in our place on the cross of Calvary. Because of that act of love and the fact he rose from the dead, Jesus can change our lives and gives us eternal life. This salvation is free and can be yours by simply believing this truth and confessing by prayer that you are a sinner.
The merry in Merry Christmas is the fact a savior was born. Embrace the Christ of Christmas and make this a truly Merry Christmas.
