Christmas time is a reminder that God in the Person of Jesus Christ came to live with us, to quote a line from a familiar carol, ‘Born that man no more may die’ John 1:1-3, 14; 3:16. We look forward to that last part of it, as the Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 11:26 about the Lord’s Supper, “For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes” The purpose of Christ’s first Advent is a guarantee we can look forward to His Second Advent.

I think I share in much of the ‘afterlife’ website beliefs, certainly I share in the Good News of what Jesus has done for us and will do for us as presented in ‘the promise after Christmas.’
