It will not be but a few days and the wrapping paper will be piling up on the floor. We all have many family traditions. We have tried to keep some old family traditions going and we have tried to start some new ones too.
It is common to hear someone speak of the angels singing at Christmas time. Well, I am sorry to be the one who brings you bad news; but, if you find in the Bible that the angels sang I would like to know. I do not find it anywhere.
My point is not to be a Mr. Grinch or Mr. Scrooge. I point this out to us because I want you and I to both be persons of truth. The truth is that it is not in the Bible. Notice the words often quoted at Christmas time in Luke 2:10, “And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.” The angel said. There is no singing by said angels. In my sanctified imagination I can hear these angelic beings singing heavenly. However, I must be accurate when it come to the truth of Scripture. God used angels mightily in the Scriptures to bring message, protect and a host of other things. When it comes to singing, I just don’t find it.
This year; especially at Christmas time, let’s seek to be Biblically correct.
So, how are you doing?
