CHILD HAILED AS REMEEMER
FOR MANKIND
Divine Birth Claimed for Baby
Born ini Judea
(The following account of the
birth of Christ, written in news
paper style, has been going the
rounds of newspapers for many
years, but we do not believe it
has ever appeared here.—Ed.
BETHLEHEM, Dec. 25—Hailed as
the infant Son of God and the prom
ised Redeemer, a child named Jesus
was bom here last night in a rude
stable, his coming accompanied by
a bright new star in the sky and pro
claimed by angels as the glorious
fulfillment of an ancient prophecy.
First to learn of the event, which
may change the religious beliefs of
the entire world, were Judean shep
herds tending their flocks near the
stable where today the child lies
cradled' in a manger and guarded
by his mother, Mary, and her
spouse, Joseph.
Angels Reported.
“Fear not,” the shepherds report
ed an angel as saying, “for beholod
I bring you tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people. For
unto you is bom this day in the
City of David, a Savior, which is
Christ the Lord,”
As the Angel directed them to
ward the stable, they said, a multi
tude of heavenly spirits suddenly ap-
pared singing, “Glory to God in
the highest, and on earth peace and
good will toward men!”
The shepherds found the child
wrapped in swaddling cloths and
knelt beside him, praising God. Then
they left to make known that the
words of the prophets had come to
pass.
Promise Made.
According to Hebrew belief, the
promise of a Redeemer was first
made to Adam and has been re
newed to mankind through utter
ances of patriarchs and prophets.
It was recalled today that the Pro
phet Michaeas had predicted the Re
deemer would be horn in Bethlehem,
but would be known as a Nazarene.
It was also recalled that the Pro
phet Isaias, declared: “God Himself
will come and will save you. Then
shall the eyes of the blind be open
ed and the ears of the deaf shall
be unstopped. Then shall the lame
man leap as a hart, and the tongue
of the dumb shall be free.”
Wonder-Worker?
This was interpreted today to
mean that the newborn child, if he
be truly the Redeemer, shall be
come famous as a wonler-worker
with the power to suspend natural
laws.
(Priests and scribes of this city
are wondering if the birth of Christ
signifies the end of the old dispensa
tion and the beginning of a new.
They are asking: “If this be the
Redeemer, why was he bom in a
cowshed? If he be a king, where is
his army?” They discounted reports
of the shepherds actually having
seen heavenly angels.
Many, however, believe that the
ancient prophecy has come to pass.
They are hoping the Child will be
come a powsrful king to throw off
the oppressive yoke of the Roman
conquerors,
Royal Background.
While the Child’s mother is the
daughter of humble folk, it was
pointed out that her husband is de
scended fro mthe psalmist, King Da
vid.
Nine months ago, Mary recalled
today, an angel anpeared to her in
the quietness of her chamber, sa
luting her with the words. “Hail,
full of grace, the Lord is with thee,
blessed art thou among women.”
She was told, she said, that she
should conceive a son to he called
Jesus. To her question, “How shall
this be, seeing I know not a man?”
the an "el, she declared, replied.
“The Holy Spirit shall come upon
thee and the power of the Highest
shall overshodaw thee: therefore
also that holy thing which shall be
bom of thee shall be called the Son
of God.”
No Lodging.
When her time was nearly come.
Governor Cyrenius of Syria ordered
all inhabitants to be enrolled in
Bethlehem under the new taxation
plan inaugurated by Caesar Augus
tus. So Mary and Joseph left their
home in Nazareth, Galilee, but upon
arriving in Bethlehem could find no
lodging at the inn, nor at any house.
Hence a stable became the birth
place of the Christ child.
The ass and' the ox and the calf—
whose images have been worshipped
in earlier times—were there in the
stable.
And, so today in Bethlehem a
child was bom. Shepherds brought
him a lamb, and to Mary gave milk
and cheese. Time will tell whether
her issue is to be another false pro
phet or the promised “Son of God,
of whose kingdom there shall be no
