What is the real essence of Christmas? Why are we celebrating it? Is it to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ? or... Is it to remember Santa Claus?
Why are we so excited for Christmas every time we reach the "ber month"? Is it because of Santa's gifts? or... Is it because it reminds us how God sent his only begotten son? Thinking once? Thinking twice? Well, we should be thinking thrice as we try to evaluate ourselves on how we define Christmas.
Well, we were once kids and all we knew about Christmas back then (possibly until now) was about being good in order to receive gifts from Santa. We can't blame ourselves for having such a misconception because good old Santa has been emphasized throughout the ages, which made him more popular than the birth of Christ. It seems like each year (December) became a battle between fantasy and faith - a battle of popularity and authenticity amongst people. And it is a challenge for us to educate ourselves and to educate others about the real meaning of Christmas - the birth of Jesus Christ in order for him to experience death and for us to be saved from our sins.
Let's all transform GREAT DREAMERS into TRUE BELIEVERS! Go on... spread the message!
