Christmas Canyon

Taken by a friend

Stop--and enjoy the season!

Christmas Colors

Red--for the blood Jesus spilled when He died to free and cleanse us from sin and death
............... "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin."

White--for the change in those of us who have accepted the salvation of our God and obey His commandments
............... "Take your evil deeds out of my sight! Stop doing wrong, learn to do right! ... 'Come now, let us reason together,' says the Lord. 'Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be like wool.'"

Green--the color of growth and life
............... "Whoever believes in the Son [Jesus] has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him."
............... [Jesus speaking] "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."


"Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!"

Christmas Glow

The Trumpet Sound Proclaims

"The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever."

Christmastime is here!

Pointing to Salvation

"But the prettiest sight to see is the holly...."

....need the Light of the world within.

Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

Stained-glass people....

"People are like stained glass windows--they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within."
