I believe that the true meaning of Christmas is different for everyone. For some it means spending the Christmas season with family and friends, remembering the birth of Christ, reliving old traditions, or giving service to those in need.
The Star: A heavenly signs of prophecy fulfilled long, long ago- The shining hope of mankind.
The Color Red: The first color of Christmas, symbolizing that Savior?s sacrifice for all.
The Fir Tree: Evergreen- the second color of Christmas shows everlasting light and life. The needles point up to heaven.
The Bell: Rings out to guide lost sheep back to the fold, signifying that all are precious in His eyes.
The Candle: A mirror of starlight, reflecting our thanks for the star of Bethlehem.
The Gift Bow: Tied as we should all be tied together in bonds of goodwill forever.
The Candy Cane: Represents the shape of the shepherd's crook, used to bring lost lambs back to the fold.
The Wreath: A symbol of the never ending eternal value of love?having no end.

The true meaning of Christmas is about Jesus our Savior being born. It isn't about the presents or the giving or the getting. The whole reason we celebrate Christmas if the birth of Christ. Hence the name"CHRISTmas". Some may not celebrate this and think it is about the reasons I listed above, but it is not. I want everyone to see that

Merry Christmas to you too. Now for your answer: to me the true meaning of christmas is being kinder toward your fellow man, giving to those who otherwise would go without.

It's simply the day I celebrate the birth of my personal Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I fully understand that he wasn't born on Dec. 25th, but I don't know what day my dog was born either, so we celebrate his birthday on the anniversary of the day we got him. So the DATE is meaningless. It's Christmas. On any calendar day, it would mean the same thing. The day to celebrate the birth of Christ. Like Easter is the day to celebrate His resurrection from the dead. Even though it's on a different callendar date each year, it's still the same meaning to the day.

Is the day we celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ. Also, a day for all the family to get together and have that needed fellowship time.
It is a day to have friends over and enjoy there company for a while. It is a day that the whole world notice more about Jesus Christ than any other day. I would like to see the world as a whole to notice Jesus more every day.
Hope you and your family have a great Christmas.
16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Christmas is the day that we are supposed to celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ.....or so i've been told. all my life, but as it turned out, Christmas is the day that everyone gets drunk and makes a big scene and turns over the table that the Christmas dinner for everyone was on, and screaming and yelling and drunk and drunk and drunk, so it got to the point that i just don't do Christmas any more.......................................

Being with my family that I love. And looking at all that we have to be thankful for. I love being around all my family at Christmas time. It is not about the gifts it is about seeing all of my loved ones and catching up on what the year as brought. And to give us time to pray and give thanks for God for everything he has given to us all year long.
