The True Christmas

For unto us a child is born,

to us a son is given;

and the government shall be upon his

shoulder,

and his name shall be called

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of his government and

of peace

there will be no end,

on the throne of David and over his

kingdom,

to establish it and uphold it

with justice and with righteousness

from this forth and

forevermore.

The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do

this.

~Isaiah 9:6-7

For he grew up before him like a young

plant,

and like a root out of dry ground;

he had no form or majesty that we

should look at him,

and no beauty that we should desire

him.

He was despised and rejected by men;

a man of sorrows, and acquainted

with grief;

and as one from whom men hide their

faces

he was despised, and we esteemed

him not.

Surely he has borne our griefs

and carried our sorrows;

yet we esteemed him stricken,

smitten by God and afflicted.

But he was wounded for our

transgressions;

he was crushed for our iniquities;

upon him was the chastisement that

brought us peace,

and with his stripes we are healed.

~Isaiah 53:2-5

Merry Christmas!
