Universal Christmas Has But One Meaning Probably, if all the words that have been used to describe the meaning of Christmas were laid end to end, side by side, they would form a gigantic bridge from here to Bethlehem. Throughout the world, in every corner of Christianity, Christ mas is THE holiday, universally celebrated, universally rec ognized. Because of the fact that so many have written so much about Christmas and its meaning, it is remarkable that the story of the Nativity has remained such a simple and unaffected narrative ... f, For God so loved the world. He gave His only begotten Son.” In this modern world that we live in, and the space age to which we have directed our best minds and greatest talents, it should be a welcome change for every man, woman and child to seek the serene solitude of the Master’s House and there meditate, with reverence, unashamed, upon the true meaning of this holiday that we celebrate as Christmas. Away from the laughter and festivities, the caroling and the presents, one can still stand in the shadow of the momentous event which took place nearly 2,000 years ago. Because God so loved the world. He sent forth a Redeemer, His only begotten Son, Fringing the promise of eternal salvation. The true meaning of Christmas is neither hidden, nor is it obscure. It is obvious. And it cannot be ignored. This is why Christmas is universal; why it belongs to men of all races, in every corner of the world. And this is why each and every one must carry the meaning of Christmas within his heart—and build his own bridge to life eternal.
