Gifts were given to the Holy Child Jesus at the time of His
Birth. We also celebrate His Birth at our Christmas season. The coming of the
Christ to this Earth was, and still is, a cause for great celebration. I cannot
understand True Believers who reject the principle of Christmas which is to
celebrate the first Coming of the Christ.
