15. Why Jesus is Better than Santa Claus?
Santa lives at the North Pole... JESUS is
everywhere.
Santa rides in a sleigh... JESUS rides on the wind
and walks on the water.
Santa comes but once a year... JESUS is an ever-
present help.
Santa fills your stockings with goodies... JESUS
supplies all your needs.
Santa comes down your chimney uninvited...
JESUS stands at your door and knocks, and then
enters your heart when invited.
16. You have to wait in line to see Santa... JESUS
is as close as the mention of His name.
Santa lets you sit on his lap... JESUS lets you
rest in His arms..
Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly... JESUS
has a heart full of love.
All Santa can offer is “HO HO HO...” JESUS offers
health, help and hope.
Santa says “You’d better not cry”... JESUS says,
“Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.”
17. Santa’s little helpers make toys... JESUS makes
new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken
homes and builds mansions.
Santa may make you chuckle but... JESUS gives
you joy that is your strength.
While Santa puts gifts under your tree... JESUS
became our gift and died on a tree.
18. 10 Commandments for Christmas
1. You shall not leave ‘Christ’ out of Christmas, making
it ‘Xmas.’ To some, ‘X’ is unknown.
2. You shall prepare your soul for Christmas. Spend not
so much on gifts that your soul is forgotten.
3. You shall not let Santa Claus replace Christ, thus
robbing the day of its spiritual reality.
19. 4. You shall not burden the shop girl, the mailman, and
the merchant with complaints and demands.
5. You shall give yourself with your gift. This will
increase its value a hundred fold, and the one who
receives it shall treasure it forever.
6. You shall not value gifts received by their cost. Even
the least expensive may signify love, and that is more
priceless than silver and gold.
20. 7. You shall not neglect the needy. Share your
blessings with many who will go hungry and cold if
you are generous.
8. You shall not neglect your church. Its services
highlight the true meaning of the season.
9. You shall be as a little child. Not until you become
in spirit as a little one are you ready to enter into the
kingdom of Heaven.
10. You shall give your heart to Christ. Let Him be at
the top of your Christmas list.
