From Blackball Parish Church, Edinburgh. Conducted by the Minister, the Rev. J. G. Matheson
What a strange story Christmas tells-the Son of God coming into the world as a little child-what does this mean? The Bible says: Christ came to save us from our sins,' but what does the Bible mean by sin? It means trying to be our own God, that is what has brought tragedy into the world. Christ has come not only to bring individual people back to God but to turn the whole of our human life in a new direction.
