The Promise


What is Christmas really about? Presents? Candy? Family get-togethers? An economic boost? A cliché war (“Merry Christmas” vs. “Happy Holidays”)? All of these are questions that confront us annually. This Advent season, let us see that Christmas is really about the most important promise ever made. It is found in Genesis 3:15: “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.”
