Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight!
Glories stream from heaven afar;
Heavenly hosts sing Al-le-lu-ia!
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born!
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, oh, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Christ was God in human flesh. He was both God and man. He was fully God from all eternity, and he became fully man when he was born to Mary in Bethlehem.

Jesus Christ was a Jewish teacher; many people believed that he performed healings and exorcisms; he was rejected by the Jewish leaders; he was crucified under Pontius Pilate in the reign of Tiberius.
Both the Roman and Jewish authorities had various concerns about Christ’s remaining at large. There were six serious accusations. But these charges were not the real reason for the hatred of the Jewish leaders for Jesus or their prosecution of the case against him before Pilate. The real accusation is that he had claimed to be the unique Son of God, which they judged blasphemy.
After his betrayal and arrest, Jesus went through six distinct trial cross-examinations before facing crucifixion.
There were three Jewish trials and three Roman trials. Roman governor Pontius Pilate was in one of them.
While the Jews were concerned with the religious implications of
Jesus’ actions, the Romans were far more concerned with politics, economics, and the authority of Rome.
The leaders of the Jewish people were thus able to present Jesus to Pilate as a mutinous trouble-maker.
Jesus was thus condemned to be crucified and had to carry his own crossbar—the horizontal beam of the cross called the patibulum—from prison to the place of his execution.
Jesus Christ traveled Via Dolorosa ----a route through the Old City of Jerusalem that is believed to be the path Jesus walked to his crucifixion Golgotha where he was crucified.
The Brutality of Crucifixion can't be imagined.
The Jews were well aware that Jesus had predicted his own resurrection.
When Christ was on the cross, it seemed that all had been lost. Death had won.
But Christ was a Messiah and his resurrection is a promise that death is not the end.
In the morning a significant event happened, changing the course of history which was so dramatic that eleven men's lives changed because of Christ's vacant tomb.
I have never seen health or happiness, just pain, and suffering but the pain, tragedy, and death that wreaked havoc upon my life were not present in God’s original creation.
The beauty we see in nature, the joy we experience in my loving relationship with mum, the satisfaction and the feeling and the pleasure we experience in so many ways are clues that hint at what the world was like when God first made it. Few relationships were contaminated by pride, lust, greed, or jealousy.
Santa Claus, the legendary figure is supposed to be Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas bringing you gifts.
One night when I was a kid and awoke to pee, I saw my lovely parents wrapping gifts and putting them under my pillow.
My father took me to Bandel Church and prayed for my health. After my liver transplant, he took me to the Church beyond Rashtrapati Bhawan and prayed for my health.
But now he is in a glorious, pain-free, death-free land protecting me from there.
Mum is my Santa giving whatever I desire.
