CHRIST IS CHRISTMAS! HE IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!
He was sent and He came to fulfill a mission; ALL-Man, ALL-God, carrying the treasure of His precious blood from the humble manger to the Cross of Calvary just so it could be spilled for all mankind. God’s sacrificial lamb, payment for OUR penalty of sin in the world. His gift is free to ALL who are willing to receive it.
May the Spirit of Christmas and the Spirit of Redemption be in your hearts continually from this day forward and may all the precious Joy and gracious Peace from our Heavenly Father be yours in this Season of Christ Jesus!

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD 
I very rarely if ever give a Scripture without the chapter and verse no matter the translation I use. It just makes it so much easier for others if they want to study. Thanks for asking. It helps to clear things up. God Bless!

I usually do give Scripture chapter and verse. You can find it at the bottom of the verse given usually. Thanks for commenting.

I usually don’t recognize the verses when taken from the New Living Translation. Could you give the Scripture references please?
