The meaning of Christmas

Every detail of the story of the Lord's advent is true, and every word has meaning. The events represented the purpose of His coming and the fulfillment of the ancient prophesies. The story still has power today. The Lord's birth can take place in every person, and His work of salvation goes on continually.
