this is the story of how Jesus Christ
the Saviour of the world was born the
story begins in a place called Nazareth
Nazareth was a quiet sleepy little town
where most people were farmers and
shepherds in this town there lived a
young Jewish woman named Mary she was a
very obedient and god-fearing woman she
helped her parents in the field and did
her chores in the house she was kind and
helpful to everyone and people liked her
very much
Mary was going to get married soon to a
good and honest man named Joseph
a few days before Mary's engagement she
had a visitor he was a very special
guest an angel sent by God from heaven
the holy angel Gabriel visited her in
her room and called her in her sleep
when Mary opened her eyes she saw a
heavenly figure bathed in a pool of
white light floating beyond her window
it wore bright white robes and had big
silver wings fluttering behind him at
first she thought she was dreaming but
later when she heard the angels voice
she realized this was no dream Mary do
not be afraid I am Gabriel God has sent
me to you he loves you and you have been
chosen for something very special your
kind heart and pure soul is of great
value to the Lord you are fortunate that
God has chosen you above everyone else
for this special task I'm not afraid
an honor to know that God has chosen me
to carry out his wish I am lucky to be a
favour - god bless you Mary God is
pleased with you I have come to tell you
but Susan's you will have a son he will
be a great King one day and he will be
loved by everyone he will be called the
son of God Mary was at first shocked at
what Gabriel had to say
however she remained calm and listened
to everything that the angel had to say
then she spoke to Gabriel but how was
this possible I'm not yet married do not
be afraid Mary the Spirit of the Lord
will take over you and you will be
blessed with a son he will be called the
Son of God
he will do great things for the people
he will be hailed as the king of Jews
and the savior of mankind I'm grateful
for whatever the Lord has done for me
I'm happy to have as a wish come true
through me
the Lord is with you Mary you are
blessed go in peace Gabriel then left
the house of Mary and returned to heaven
in a few days
Mary became pregnant in those days it
was very unusual for a girl to become
pregnant before marriage however Mary
explained everything to Joseph about the
angel and God's wish and the son they
were going to have Joseph was a good man
and he accepted everything he married
Mary in a few days in those days the
king of the land announced a census he
wanted every citizen of his country to
be counted and documented since Joseph
was actually from Bethlehem he had to go
there to be counted Bethlehem was a long
way from Nazareth Joseph and Mary had a
long and difficult journey ahead to
Bethlehem there were no cars or other
means of transportation except for a
donkey the whole journey had to be made
by foot Mary sat on a donkey and Joseph
walked behind them it was even more
difficult for Mary since she was going
to give birth to her baby after many
many days of walking through the desert
Joseph and Mary finally reached
Bethlehem it was getting very dark when
they reached the town they desperately
needed a place to rest and spend the
night but all the inns were full and
nobody would give them space to spend
the night Joseph walked all over the
town knocking at the doors of houses and
shops one after the other but nobody
would allow them to come in
Mary was about to give birth and it was
important that she had a safe and
comfortable place for the baby and
herself Joseph and Mary kept feeling
hopeless after searching for a while
Joseph found an empty barn built for
cows there was plenty of fresh straw
there Joseph used the straw and managed
to make a bed for Mary later in the
night something magical happened Mary
gave birth to a beautiful baby boy
Joseph made a small bed of fresh straw
in the manger and laid him there
it was warm and comfortable and the baby
slept happily in the manger Mary was
happy that the predictions of the Angels
had come true
Jesus Christ the savior of this world
was born in a humble manger
[Music]
that same night while Joseph and Mary
were looking for a place to stay the
night not very far away two shepherds
were out looking for their sheep on a
hill suddenly they were blinded by a
bright light from the sky they opened
their eyes to find a beautiful angel in
front of them with long golden hair and
silver wings she wore a shimmering white
and gold dress which sparkled in the
moonlight the Shepherd's did not know
how to react and were amazed then the
angel spoke to them do not be afraid I
have come to give you good news tonight
in the town of bedlam a baby boy has
been born his name is Jesus he will be
known as a savior of the world
you will know it is Jesus when you see a
baby boy wrapped in the clothes in the
manger
go to the worldís and just everybody
know of this happy news let everybody
know that Jesus the savior of the Jews
was born today go and peace now and
spread the good news the shepherds were
happy and shocked at the same time they
were overjoyed at the fact that a savior
was born and they ran towards Bethlehem
to find baby Jesus the king of the Jews
who had been born in a humble manger
when they eventually found the baby in
the manger in Bethlehem they praised him
and bowed down in worship on the night
that Jesus was born three wise men were
traveling on their camels across the
desert suddenly their felt a flash of
light come down on them they looked up
at the sky and they saw a bright star it
was a kind of star that they had never
seen before
the three wise men were aware of the
prophecy of Jesus they were waiting for
the Star of Bethlehem to appear and when
they saw it they were overjoyed it meant
that the savior of the world and the
king of the Jews was born at the time of
Jesus birth the country was under the
rule of King Herod who was a very
selfish and evil king when the three
wise men informed King Herod of the star
they had seen in the sky in what it
meant
King Herod was worried that he would
lose his kingdom to this baby boy
he told the Wiseman to find the baby
Jesus and let him know where the baby
was although the king informed the wise
men that he wanted to find the baby so
he could go and worship Him Herod was
actually plotting to kill the child he
feared that Jesus would grow up to
overpower him someday
the three wise men followed the star for
several days and found baby Jesus in the
manger they were surprised to find the
future king of Jews lying in a barn
they found the barn in which Jesus was
born a few days after he was born
finally the star stopped right over the
manger they smiled at Mary and bowed
down in reverence to the new baby they
had brought gifts of gold frankincense
and myrrh for the baby these were very
valuable gifts and only given to Kings
it was highly unusual for anybody to
give these precious things to a newborn
baby however this was no ordinary baby
and the wise men fully understood the
purpose of Jesus's birth and so now you
know the story of Christmas and how the
mighty savior of the world
started his journey on earth the story
shows us that great things can have
small and humble beginnings
