a census be taken, and
every person in the entire
Roman world had to go to
his own town to register.
Joseph, being of the line
of David, was required to
go to Bethlehem to regis
ter with Mary. .While in
Bethlehem, Mary gave
birth to Jesus. Probably
due to the census, the inn
was too crowded, and
Mary gave birth in a crude
stable. She wrapped the
baby in cloths and placed
him in a manger.
The Shepherd’s Worship
the Savior:
Out in the fields, an
angel of the Lord appeared
to the shepherds who were
tending their flocks of
sheep by night. The angel
annourlced that the Savior
had been born in the
town of David. Suddenly
a great host of heavenly
beings appeared with the
angels and began singing
t praises to God. As the
angelic beings departed,
the shepherds decided to

travel to Bethlehem and
see the Christ-child.
There they found Mary,
Joseph and the baby, in
the stable. After their visit,
they began to spread the
word about this amazing
child and everything the
angel had said about him.
They went on their way
still praising and glorify
ing God. But Mary kept
quiet, treasuring their
words and pondering them
in her heart. It must have
been beyond her ability to
grasp, that sleeping in her
arms —the tender child
she had just borne —was
the Savior of the world.
The Magi Bring Gifts:
After Jesus’ birth, Herod
was king of Judea. At this
time wise men (Magi) from
the east saw a star, they
came in search, knowing
the star signified the birth
of the king of the Jews.
The wise men came to the
Jewish rulers ifi Jerusalem
and asked where the Christ
was to be born. The rulers

explained, “In Bethlehem
in Judea,” referring to
Micah 5:2. Herod secretly
met with the Magi and
asked them to report back
after they had found the
child. Herod told the Magi
that he too wanted to go
and worship the babe. But
secretly Herod was plot
ting to kill the child.
So the wise men con
tinued to follow the star
in search of the new born
king and found Jesus with
his mother in Bethlehem.
(Most likely Jesus was
already two years of age
by this time.) They bowed
and worshipped him,
offering treasures of gold,
incense and myrrh. When
they left, they did not
return to Herod. They had
been warned in a dream
of his plot to destroy the
child.
And thus began the story
of Jesus and Christmas...
