    based on 9 ratings
     | 4,757 views

    The truth of the matter is that none of us are good all the time. In fact, the Bible says that’s why we have Christmas, because all had sinned and come short of the glory of God. In Matthew 1:21 the Bible says you’ll call his name Jesus for he will save

    IT’S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS (Part 2) If you and I are to keep from being embarrassed at Christmas, we need to learn to give in the same way God has given to us. Selfless giving follows God’s example. God hasn’t given us anything waiting
