Christmas season is a joyous, Happiness and peaceful season in all over the world but is it Peace existence in our State?
Everyone should hope something good when Christmas season comes and posses peace during Christmas season coz "Christ is the Prince of Peace".
Christmas is not for hardship, trouble, tensions, fighting etc but for Peace & Tranquility in every home. During Christmas season everyone shall try to do change something in our life, from darkness to Light, from bad things to new things, for all these purposes God sent His only begotten Son in this world and we celebrate Christmas for it, let us try to purify our heart and let us try to cleanse our dirty things as like God cleansed us through Jesus Christ.
Reason for Christ's coming to the Earth. Christmas is the celebration of the incarnation of God in Jesus the Christ, the self-revelation of God to the world in human form for the reconciliation of humanity to Himself.
What does the Bible say about Christ's coming?
