Was Observed at Very Early Time lr
 History of Church.

The festival of Christmas was ob served at a very early period in the church. as indeed it could hardly but be; for that which brought the joy of angels within reach of mems ears could not but have been devoutly and joy0usly remembered by Christians year by year, when they came fully to understand the greatness of the event. It is most fit that the season so marked out by angels by songs of joy such as had not been heard on earth since the creation, should also be observed as a time of festive gladness by the church, and in the social life of Christians. Christ Himself instituted this festival when He sanctified the day by then first revealing His human nature to the eyes of mankind. The holy angels witnessed to it's separation forever as day of days when they proclaimed the glory that was then offered to God in the highest by the restoration of perfect manhood in the virgin born Jesus, and the peace that was brought among men on earth through the re- union of their nature to God.
 It Is to the nativity of our Lord that all the pages of the Bible point as the center on which everything there re. corded turns

The coming of Christ gave empha. sis to the fatherhood or Gea and the brotherhood of man The great prin. ciple of Christianity stands out prom. inently in contradiction to many of the noblest principles of heathendom Race prejudices ran through all peo. pies and amongst all tongues, but when Christ came he taught the tatherhood of God and the brother. hood of man. He taught that God is no respeeter of persons. He made the poor IS well as the rich his discinles He dined with the publieans and sin. ners. as well as with priests and noblemen. He commanded that ina Gospel be preached to every erea. ture. His church today is a living witness that there is neither bond nor free. male nor female. Greek nor Jew. for We are all one in Clrist
