Christ the Lord

The birth of the Saviour should be on our hearts and minds this season. I want to thank God for coming to earth to become man and die on the cross for all sin in human history. I am grateful that inso doing, the Christ conquered death so that we may all have the free gift of eternal life--regardless of pedigree, nationality, party--but by the simple belief that we are all saved through grace by believing that Jesus is our saviour.

I also want to thank God for blessing me with the protection of the US Armed Forces and for our president.

I want to wish our readers a very Merry Christmas.

Farm animals, not thoroughbred horses, were his first companions. He was placed in a manger, not a soft bed with silk sheets. None of this was expected, except by a few prophets and those who followed them. But then the idea that God would enter the world so that humanity might enter eternity wasn't expected either.

Modern politics is emblematic of these conflicting kingdoms.

Too many put too much faith in Democrats or Republicans to deliver us from evil, a word that serves more as a metaphor than as a diagnosis of our time. Those expectations are quickly diminished for most, once temporal power is achieved.

At Christmas we are given another opportunity to focus on One who never disappoints, assuming our expectations are in the right place and our faith in the right Person. --Cal Thomas
