Upon this season and time of year, a vast amount of the world acknowledges the birth of baby Jesus without regard to his associated sovereignty. From the fervor over commercial sales, lines of shopping carts, and maxed out credit cards resulting in more from those to those who already have too much, I would like to inject a little substance into the mix. Before that is done, please understand this isn’t meant to convey I don’t want your gifts (as that would be too much for the hearts of those who might read this); however, when a philosophy that has taken hold in the hearts and minds of so many on this planet (in reality), has not just altered the reason for the season but has negated the very purpose of the story, I choose not to remain silent another night about the angles who were heard on high declaring the glory of God. Of course, I know you know the story. Please proceed.
The first Noel, as recorded in the Holy Scriptures, contains commentary about this little babe away in a manger with words that don’t seem to make it into the great hymnody...
