Happy Christmas 2024 to all of our forum members and their families, that includes your animal "children"...lol.
Once again, it is now that time of year where Anton, ImpulseRocket, and myself would like to wish all of our forum members and their families including our adorable much loved pets...lol...A very Happy Christmas as well as good wishes for all as we all go forth into the New Year and see what's in store for 2025.
Four years of chaos are now hopefully at an end with a new administration, (at least for the USA), which has 'promised' to turn things around, as for me, they are gonna have to show me...lol...lol.
The reason for the season though is quite apparent when one remembers the promises of God as written by Isaiah in Chapter nine verse six where it says,
King James Bible
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."
Without the birth of Christ in his first coming, the second part of that scripture would never be fulfilled, and that involves the Second Coming where The Christ takes over all earthly governments and finally brings peace upon the earth.
In a continuing prophecy, Daniel wrote in chapter two verse forty four referring to that Second Coming that is to happen in the End Times as to the reason for it.
King James Bible
"And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever."
This is what true Christians believe in any event and I do realise that not all are believers, but at least this will clarify the reason why Christians hold Christmas as well as what we call Resurrection Sunday special days of each year to be observed for its true meaning and not the commercialised reasons for the holiday.
In any event, From: Anton, ImpulseRocket, and Damien, we wish a Happy Christmas for everyone here and your families and as we always do every year, we leave you with a couple of animated Christmas season music videos that might be some nice background music to listen to during the holidays.
