In order to become a  Christian, you must give yourself to 3 things and attest to your belief of them.

1. I Am A Sinner

2. As A Sinner I Need A Savior

3. Christ Is The Savior I Need

Are you willing to trust Christ with all your heart as your Savior and Lord? If so, then you can be saved!

There are four responses that together tell us how to celebrate Christmas, not just in December but all year long.

1. Proclaim - “When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child.”

2. Wondering - “And all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them”

3. Pondering "But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart."

Pondering Exercises:

-Set aside at least an hour of uninterrupted quiet time.

-Pray and ask God to show you the things he wants you to learn.

-Make a Top Ten list of things that have happened in your life this past year.

4. Glorifying - “The Shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

How shall we celebrate Christmas now that Christmas is past? Let’s follow the inspired outline in Luke 2:17-20.

-Proclaiming the Good News that Christ has come.

-Wondering at God’s amazing plan.

-Pondering the works of God.
