Thank God for Christmas


It's delightful. A cheerful Christmas comes after gloomy November elections. In November one must listen to mud-slinging candidates bad mouth government leaders so they'll be elected. Vicious sludge flies in every direction. Fantastic promises are made. Some contestants profess world peace will break out when you vote for them. Hunger and disease will disappear.

Thank God Christmas comes to cheer us up.

The Christmas story also promises new government and world peace. According to Bible prophets who wrote the Christmas story, Jesus was a miracle baby; a "newborn King" destined to make sweeping changes in world government (the government shall be upon His shoulders, wonderful, counselor, Prince of Peace, Hallelujah!).

This great Christmas King promises to bring long-lasting peace to a war torn world. "...they'll beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore."

It's not commonly known but Christmas also promises to bring harmony to the animal kingdoms, "The wold shall also dwell with the lamb and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."

There's no end to good news in the Christmas story.

Glad tidings make blissful believers forget all about the bad-tempered Republicans and Democrats.
