DAY#24 - Jesus is the Lighthouse Advent Calendar

DAY#24 - Jesus is the Lighthouse Advent Calendar

Welcome to Advent Season 2024!!  Advent is the season that begins the celebration of Jesus' coming to earth.  The word "Advent" is derived from the Latin word "adventus" which means "coming".  During Advent, Christians celebrate the birth of the Messiah Jesus but it is also a time to prepare for the second coming of Christ. 

Every year I feature a different Advent calendar and I've been doing this since 2016.  This year, I am actually featuring two different calendars and this is the second one. (click HERE to view Day24 of the Mini Advent Calendar).
  
There are so many Bible verses talking about Jesus Christ being the light, that's why I am calling this calendar:
"Jesus is the Lighthouse"

A lighthouse guides mariners safely to their destination - just like Jesus (who is the Light of the world) guides us to eternal life.

Today is December 24th and I am opening Box#24

Inside we find:

"father Christmas" - You will notice that I put an X over him because he is NOT the reason for Christmas and the symbol of his fictional character is actually (in my opinion) evil. 

We learned that Jesus' birthday is most likely NOT December 25th - some Biblical scholars believe that it was in April and others believe it was in September (see post below)

December 25th is actually the birthday of Nimrod.  Even though the "earthly powers-that-be" may have manipulated our calendar - "Christmas" is when we celebrate Jesus Christ's birth NOT Nimrod's.  Our Heavenly Father knows our heart  - the date is not the most important part - it is the fact that we worship the true Messiah, the one and only Savior Jesus Christ/Yahshua.

"And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.  In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.  And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.  They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.  There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light.  And they shall reign forever and ever."
Revelation 22:1-5

Interesting fact:  Did you know that Michigan is the state with the most lighthouses??  (Maine is a close second).
