In “The Love of Christmas”, Rodney shares that Jesus Christ is the Love of Christmas. The message of Christmas is one of hope, peace, and joy that allows us to experience the love of God in Christ Jesus. To know God refers to an intimate, experiential knowledge of God, rather than just information about God. And, it is impossible to know God intimately without loving others, for God is love. Jesus is God in the flesh – true love in the flesh on display. Anyone in whom God dwells reflects his character. To claim to know God while failing to love others is to make a false claim. The love of God many of us have experienced was visibly demonstrated in a manger and on a cross. Christ’s mission is the great revelation of God’s love. Christmas is the celebration of God sending his One and Only Son, Jesus to be the acceptable sacrifice for our sins; so that, the world can be saved through Him. The Christ of Christmas offers the gift of experiencing hope, peace, joy and the love of God.
