 Theme: Four reasons why the true Christmas season never ends for Christians, so that you keep on celebrating all year long.

I. His salvation never ends (Matthew 1:21; Luke 1:31; 2:11)

II. His priesthood never ends (Matthew 2:6)

III. His kingdom never ends (Luke 1:32-33)

IV. His worship never ends (Matthew 2:2, 11)

Jonathon Edwards: “The happiness of the creature consists in rejoicing in God, by which also God is magnified and exalted.”

C.S. Lewis: “I think we delight to praise what we enjoy because the praise not merely expresses but completes the enjoyment; it is its appointed consummation.”

Charles Spurgeon: “Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song. By grace we learn to sing, and in glory we continue to sing. What will some of you do when you get to heaven, if you go on grumbling all the way? Do not hope to get to heaven in that style. But now begin to bless the name of the Lord.”
