AND ON THIS VISIT, JESUS CONFIRMED CHRISTMAS DISTORTIONS AMONG CHILDREN.

Por: João José da Costa

The book tells the story of Jesus hearing from the archangel St. Gabriel the account of his birth and the life of his mother St. Mary and his father St. Joseph. And, as it was Christmas Eve, the archangels suggested to Jesus a visit to the temporal world of the men to follow how his birth was celebrated, especially among children. And on this visit, they made, Jesus and his archangels came across the distortions of Christmas among men and, consequently, among children. Fewer people celebrated the date as the birth of the baby Jesus. Children, for the most part, saw Christmas as the date of getting a lot of presents, and men as a date of overeating. They saw how the poor are forgotten by Santa Claus, the character who wins the spotlight on decorations and on Christmas Day. But they also saw many good examples of children and adults acting touched by the Holy Spirit. As sent by God the Father to leave a will to be followed by men for a life of peace and faith and eternal salvation, Jesus acts to reverse this picture by becoming closer and friend to Santa Claus.
