But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman...
Galatians 4:4
"Thousands of dollars will be worse than thrown away upon the 
coming Christmas and New Year’s in needless indulgences.
----But it is our privilege to depart from the customs and practices of this degenerate age; and instead of expending means merely for the gratification of the appetite or for needless ornaments or articles of clothing, we may make the coming holidays an occasion in which to honor and glorify God.
Christ should be the supreme object;
----but as Christmas has been observed,
the glory is turned from Him
to mortal man, whose sinful,
defective character made it necessary
for Him to come to our world.
Jesus, the Majesty of heaven, the royal King of heaven, laid aside His royalty, left His throne of glory, His high command, and came into our world to bring to fallen man, weakened in moral power and corrupted by sin, aid divine. …
Parents should keep these things before their children and instruct them, line upon line, precept upon precept, in their obligation to God..." E.G.W.
