rejoice in the hope Get before us OF
reunion OF so great proportion OF the

The Significance OF ChrIsrs Birth

The Significance OF Chrlst's Birth.
With what feelings Of joy did the
Judaeaa shepherds return to their
flocks after paying their homage to the
wonderful child at Bethlehem. So,
after contemplating this gracious event,
we should return TO the toll and dis
ciplipe OF life with glad, rejoicing, visit
full hearts. The drinking in Of this
sceae should he like refresh ne baptism
to our weary souls. Think OF the rich
significance OF this birth! What does
it mean ? 1t means that God is a living,
personal intelligence. capable Of con-
trolling the laws OF the physical uni
verse for the good Of his rational
creatures. Itmeans that God has not
forgotten our world in it's state of Sin,
and anguish, and woe. 1t means that
He suetaius to men tie relation Of
Father, determined 10 win his children
TO grateful obedience by the resistless
might oil suffering love. 1t means that
man is beir 10 an infinite, immortal
state, beyond the reach of time. or
change. In means that all who are
oppressed with sense OF guilt and
evil may find redemption and forgive
ness through that Jesus who came to
save his people from their sins. 1t
means that all wrong shall be rigbted,
all grievances redressed, all tears wiped
away, all burdens righted. Itmeans
that swords shall be beaten into plough.
shares, spears into pruning hooks, and
that in the glad future OF the Prince OF
Peace, the nations shall learn war no
more. 1t meaus that the waste and
desert places shall be fully restored,
that the wilderness shall rejoice, even
with Joy and singing, and that the
transformed earth shall, blossom and
bloom as the garden OF the Lord. 1t
means that the lost and wandering
children shall return to the Father
