Hello and welcome to the scriptures are real. This is just a short Christmas message. I wanted to give my viewers, my audience, my listeners. I'm not editing this. I'm not putting fancy stuff on the beginning or end or anything. Just since we're releasing things on Christmas Eve, I wanted to bear my testimony, really. First of all, I want to tell you my audience how grateful I am for you,

and I hope that we're helpful for you,

but mostly I want to bear my testimony that Heavenly Father loves us so much

that he sent his only begotten, Son, Jesus Christ,

and that Christ truly does redeem us.

He delivers us and he redeems us. That there are miracles

that he is working in our lives to save us from all sorts of little things and, of course,

from the big things like sin and death, that I have seen people changed and transformed

over just this last year remarkable transformations brought

about by the atoning power of Christ in the lives of people I know well and people I love and

just so much power because Jesus Christ really did come as a babe and then really did suffer for us and really does make it so that we can be born again, can be new people, and can overcome whatever is oppressing us.

And then we can come home to be with our father in heaven again, that we have heavenly parents that love us and are so wanting us to return to them and that that is possible

through Jesus Christ. And that's what we can celebrate this Christmas. It is my testimony to you

that that is true. My prayer that you and I will both be able to draw closer to Christ this season

and that we will seek to draw closer to him so that we can

bless the lives of others and uplift them and help them. I pray for that, and I testify

that it's possible in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. And I wish you the merriest of Christ's

with all my heart and with deep appreciation and love.
