ByCARLSHEARER It’s a fact . . . that the distance to the world of the Lost is short. Often it can be summed up in one word — neglect. All a man has to do is to neglect salvation, and that will take him to the lost world. If I am on a swift river, sitting in a little boat, ten miles below is a great water fall over which all that have gone have perished. I need not row the boat down. I have only to pull in the oars and fold my arms, and neglect. So all that a man has to do is to fold his arms in the current of life, and he will drift onward and be lost. “How shall we escape.” says the writer of Hebrews, “if we neglect so great salvation.” Hebrews 2:3. We invite you to the Milford Christian church.

Songs, Lights, Gifts Honor Birth Os Christ

ByPAULCORCORAN Copley News Service “And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caeser Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And all to be taxed, everyone in his own city. And Joseph went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she would be delivered. And she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.” St. Luke, Chapter 2, on the birth of Jesus Christ. * * * For Christians, the feast of Christmas is (me of the two most significant religious events of the year. It is more than elaborate decorations, gifts, toys and merrymaking. It is the commemoration of the birth of a single man who has influenced the world perhaps more than any other individual. And all those who profess to believe in Christianity every year on this occasion feel a sense of obligation to participate in some form of ritual — an orthodox Christian service — even though they may not go to church on any other occasion. Only Easter surpasses Christmas as a day on which a Christian feels such a deep sense of obligation to his faith. There is nothing of record to show that Jesus Christ was bom on Dec. 25. But by A.D. 336, that date was well established in Rome as the date for the commemoration of the anniversary of the Nativity. There are scholars who believe the date was chosen on the basis of careful calculations based on events recorded in the Bible. However, others argue the date was chosen arbitrarily to schedule it at a time that matched the pagan festival of Natalis Solis Invicti, which celebrated the passing of die winter solstice. The Greek Orthodox and Armenian churches continue to observe the holiday on Jan. 6.

Light — the burning of candles and logs — always has had special significance in the observance of Christmas. This ties in with the concept of Jesus, in the eyes of the church, being the “Light of the World.” Ancient folk carols have many references to candles and torches. One old Spanish carol reads: “Torches, torches, run with torches “All the way to Bethlehem!” There really is not too much difference between the 20th Century Americans who use gaily colored electric lights to decorate their trees or to place candles in the windows, and the 14th Century Londoners who hung lanterns outside their houses throughout the Christmas feast. Carols and songs associated with Christmas relate much of the religious story’ of the Christ child. As an example, “the 12 days of Christmas” relates to the duration of the feast, from Christmas to Epiphany. The carol “As Joseph Was AWalking” tells the Christmas story in simple terms: “He neither shall be bom “In house nor in hall “Nor in the place of paradise “But in an ox’s stall.” Christmas is above all a family occasion, more so than any other date on the calendar. Because of the toys and giving of gifts, a child comes to recognize it as something special almost from his first comprehension of the world around him. then, as the child grows older, he goes to special church services at the time of Christmas. In many homes, there is a miniature crib, or a stall with tiny figures representing Mary, Joseph, the infant Jesus and others. In the Roman Catholic faith, Christmas may begin with Midnight Mass in an elaborately decorated church. It is one of the two occasions of the year (Easter is the other) when the Catholic is obligated not only to attend Mass, but to receive Holy Communion after confessing his sins against God and violations of the 10 Commandments. For the Protestant, Christmas means much the same

thing —a time for reviving one’s faith in God. — Those of the Jewish faith have an important holiday, Hanukkah, observed at approximately the same time as Christmas. Thus, the season is a festive one for persons of all beliefs, as well as those who have no orthodox religious beliefs. However, not all church groups have regarded Christmas with affection. The reasons were excesses in drinking, eating and other earthly pleasures. The Puritans of England tried to do away with Christmas but failed. The Quakers also did not think the Christmas festival was in keeping with the truly Christian religious spirit. A Still, their descendants observe Christmas in places of worship. The universality of Christmas transcends convention, and regenerates at least for a few days or a week a faith in a supreme being.
