Christmas #2
Luke 2 Amplified version , Luke 2 (21st Century King James Version) , or Luke 2 (New Living Translation) . I can't decide which I like the best. The Amplified version seems to "pop", the KJV is a comfort, and the NLT is a little more on the modern side.
Does anyone have a favorite version of the Christmas Story? Or does it really matter?
One of my grandmothers cousins said in her yearly Christmas Letter "As Christians we must keep Christ in Christmas. America seems to be moving away from it's Christian roots and we must not let it be taken totally away from us.". It's that the truth! It really bothers me when people especially Christians make it x-mas. Christ is not an X he was a baby who grew up and died to take the worlds sins, the hurt and pain, sickness and disease.
OK I'm really late for chores so I'll have to cut my rant short. MERRY CHRISTMAS for the second day.

I like reading the Christmas story in different versions around Christmas time...the old KJV gives that nostalgic comforting feeling of hearing it at Church as a child :-). But, the newer versions make you sit up and pay attention somethings bringing out details that are very interesting! Have a very wonderful Christmas!!
