Humanity is troubled by various unsolvable social and psychological problems. We look to ourselves and see that nothing really changes for the better for long. Indeed, humanity has been trying to save itself since the Garden of Eden and nothing has worked. After a while, you become aware that the world is shrouded by spiritual darkness. Suddenly, God says, "Let there be light!" and there is light! The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone. The message of Christmas is that God sent His Son into the world to give us light that we could never generate ourselves. No one or nothing else can help us! God sent Jesus Christ into the world to be born and to die for us, and he rose triumphant over the grave, and he is now seated at the right hand of God the Father, and he's ruling all things until he puts everything under his feet. Someday we're going to rule and reign with him. Light shines in the darkness! "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope."
