    About this ebook

    The Real Meaning of Christmas is meant to assist people in understanding that it is acceptable to participate in Christmas events as long as we can differentiate between who is Santa Claus and who is Gods only begotten son and his reason for walking the earth. The prophet Isaiah leads us to a better understanding in Isaiah 26: 12-13 (12) Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our work in us (13) O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.
    Peace be unto you all, Amen
