One Moment, Please
REV. DONALD SINCLAIR,
Wingham, Ontario,
THE FACTS OF CHRISTMAS
It is a privilege to pause in
the stress of modern Life and go
back in spirit to stand by that
Manger bed, and gaze upon
the lovely Babe, who is God
manifest in the flesh. The
story of the Birth of Christ is
ever new. In all the annals of
earth there is nothing else to
be compared with it.
His Incarnation was the first
step in the fulfillment of the
programme of redemption.
Bethlehem was the prelude to
Calvary: The Christmas story
is not a Hebrew myth or Chris-
tian folklore. It is a blessed
and glorious fact. God has
actually come down to earth
and become Incarnate in the
person of the Man Christ Jesus.
In Bethlehem's Babe, we see
Deity and humanity united,
never more to be separated.
But Incarnation alone would
not save one poor sinner. He
became man in order that He
might give His life a ransom
for many. Apart from Calvary,
Bethlehem would have no last-
ing significance. The Saviou;
born in David's city, had to
die in order to redeem us to
God.
It is an interesting fact that
although Micah foretold the
birth of Christ as taking place
in Bethlehem, there seemed
almost to the last, no likeli-

tives and neighbours gathered

and Mrs. Jack Boyd, who are

Harold Gipson and will make
their home in Gorrie.
Progressive euchre was play-
ed during the evening. Winners

a rs.
Mrs. Bruce Agla read the
address and Bruce Agla and
Carl Ettinger presented Mr, and
Mrs. Boyd with a record player
and records, Jack and Bessie
thanked everyone for the gifts
and lunch was served.
hood that this would be. God
used a Roman emperor's com-
mand to bring Mary to.Bethle-
hem at the very last moment
in order that His word might
not fail.
To keep Christmas, and yet
not to have received Christ as
personal Saviour, is to trifle
with the mercy God has mani-
fested in the gift of His Son.
Have we received Him for our
very own, and are we seeking
to glorify Him in our ways?
"He came unto His own, and
His own received Him not.
But as many as received Him,
to them gave He power to be-
come the sons of God, even to
them that believe on His
name."
THE MEANING OF
CHRISTMAS
All the world would walk in
darkness
Had our Saviour not been
born;
Had the Shepherds found no
Christ -child,
There would be no Christ-
mas morn;
And no hearts would be rejoi-
cing,
But be filled with hate and
scorn.
No compassion for the sinner
For no sins could be forgiv-
en,
For without the Cross of Cal-
vary
There could be no hope of
Heaven;
And no light would shine in
darkness
For no light would then be
given,
If no star shone o'er the man-
ger
Where the Son of God did
lay,
Were the Wise Men's journey
futile
There would be no Christ-
mas Day.
Only through God's tender mer-
cy
Was there ever made a way.
All of life so bleak and dreary
Without hope, for now or
then,
But God sent His Son to love us
With a love beyond our ken;
And Ile died in pain and sor-
row
To redeem earth's sinful
men!
