The Born Of Jesus Christ By: Darren 6A

Luke 2 : 1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men [astrologers] from the east came to Jerusalem, asking Luke 2 : 2 Where is He Who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east at its rising and have come to worship Him.

Luke 2 : 3 When Herod the king heard this, he was disturbed and troubled, and the whole of Jerusalem with him. Luke 2 : 4 So he called together all the chief priests and learned men (scribes) of the people and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born.

Luke 2 : 5 They replied to him, In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet: Luke 2 : 6 And you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, you are not in any way least or insignificant among the chief cities of Judah; for from you shall come a Ruler ( Leader) Who will govern and shepherd My people Israel.

Luke 2 : 7 Then Herod sent for the wise men [astrologers] secretly, and accurately to the last point ascertained from them the time of the appearing of the star [that is, how long the star had made itself visible since its rising in the east]. Luke 2 : 8 Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, Go and search for the Child carefully and diligently, and when you have found Him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship Him.

Luke 2 : 9 When they had listened to the king, they went their way, and behold, the star which had been seen in the east in its rising went before them until it came and stood over the place where the young Child was. Luke 2 : 10 When they saw the star, they were thrilled with ecstatic joy.

Luke 2 : 11 And on going into the house, they saw the Child with Mary His mother, and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then opening their treasure bags, they presented to Him gifts--gold and frankincense and myrrh.

The Best Times In My Christmas

What I Did in My Christmas During Christmas my family celebrate by eating together, decorating Christmas tree and giving presents. But the best part during my Christmas during doing a fun activity that my family created. So what we do is my family use red envelopes and put different amount of money in each envelopes. Some have big amount of money but some don’t. after that we hang it in the Christmas tree and take turns to choose. We must take turns and if we are lucky we get a big amount of money.
