Chapter 5 - True Meaning of Christmas

Uncle Bao, Can you tell me why do we celebrate Christmas? 

Let me tell you the true story behind it...2000+ years ago...



That night in the fields near Bethlehem some shepherds were watching their sheep.
Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them,
the shepherds were frightened...

 The angel said, "Don't be afraid! I have good news for you, 

which will make everyone happy. 

 This very day in King David's hometown a Savior was born for you.  He is Christ the Lord.  

You will know who He is, because you will find Him wrapped in pieces of cloth and lying on a bed of hay."

 After the angel left, the shepherds went to Bethlehem to see the baby king.  They hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and saw a baby really lying on a bed of hay!

And Christmas was the birth date of the baby king, Jesus!

But wait...where is Santa??

...he is fictional and not even born that time, dear...
