Luke 2:13-14, “And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” 

Paul wrote that “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). That would include how we celebrate Christmas. This holiday should be celebrated, and that ought to be done honestly (meaning biblically). Christmas does not depend on the pageantry. All of that stuff has its place, but it is not of primary importance. We must separate fact from fiction. The Bible is our guide to truth, including truth about Christmas. We do not need to be sappy to make Christmas special; it is already that, so let us stick to the factual story and not depend on the fiction to enjoy the celebration. Think through the details; understanding that if we do not think through the details, then we will drown in them. We must celebrate Christmas evangelistically. Let us not forsake this perfect opportunity to proclaim the Gospel. When this is done, then we may be certain that we have honored and glorified Christ in our celebration of His birth, and that which honors and glorifies Jesus is always what’s best and most enjoyable for us.
