Christian quotes about Christmas

The greatest and most momentous fact which the history of the world records is the fact of Christ's birth.  Charles H. Spurgeon

Only in souls the Christ is brought to birth,
And there He lives and dies.
 Alfred Noyes

Best of all, Christmas means a spirit of love, a time when the love of God and the love of our fellow men should prevail over all hatred and bitterness, a time when our thoughts and deeds and the spirit of our lives manifest the presence of God.  George F. McDougall

I went to Sunday School and liked the stories about Christ and the Christmas star. They were beautiful. They made you warm and happy to think about. But I didn't believe them.  Frances Farmer

Bless us Lord, this Christmas, with quietness of mind;
Teach us to be patient and always to be kind.
 Helen Steiner Rice

Christmas is based on an exchange of gifts: the gift of God to man - his unspeakable gift of his son Jesus; and the gift of man to God - when we present our bodies as a living sacrifice and, like the Macedonians, first give ourselves to God. No one has kept or can keep Christmas until he has had a part in this two-way transaction.  Vance Havner

Christmas hath a darkness;
Brighter than the blazing noon;
Christmas hath a chillness
Warmer than the heat of June,
Christmas hath a beauty
Lovelier than the world can show:
For Christmas bringeth Jesus,
Brought for us so low.
 Christina Rossetti

Good news from heaven the angels bring,
Glad tidings to the Earth they sing:
To us this day a child is given,
To crown us with the joy of heaven.
 Martin Luther

We consider Christmas as the encounter, the great encounter, the historical encounter, the decisive encounter, between God and mankind. He who has faith knows this truly; let him rejoice.  Pope Paul VI.

I don't think Christmas is necessarily about things. It's about being good to one another, it's about the Christian ethic, it's about kindness.  Carrie Fisher

Christ was born in the first century, yet he belongs to all centuries. He was born a Jew, yet He belongs to all races. He was born in Bethlehem, yet He belongs to all countries.  George W. Truett

God grant you the light in Christmas, which is faith; the warmth of Christmas, which is love; the radiance of Christmas, which is purity; the righteousness of Christmas, which is justice; the belief in Christmas, which is truth; the all of Christmas, which is Christ.  Wilda English

Christmas in Bethlehem. The ancient dream: a cold, clear night made brilliant by a glorious star, the smell of incense, shepherds and wise men falling to their knees in adoration of the sweet baby, the incarnation of perfect love.  Lucinda Franks

The spirit of Christmas needs to superseded by the Spirit of Christ. The spirit of Christmas is annual; the Spirit of Christ is eternal. The spirit of Christmas is sentimental; the Spirit of Christ is supernatural. The spirit of Christmas is a human product; the Spirit of Christ is a divine person. That makes all the difference in the world.  Stuart Briscoe

If we could condense all the truths of Christmas into only three words, these would be the words: "God with us."  John F. MacArthur

This is Christmas: not the tinsel, not the giving and receiving, not even the carols, but the humble heart that receives anew the wondrous gift, the Christ.  Frank McKibben

You can never truly enjoy Christmas until you can look up into the Father's face and tell him you have received his Christmas gift.  John R. Rice

There has been only one Christmas - the rest are anniversaries.  William J. Cameron
