K. Allan Blume BR Editor | The BEST news, ever! News is always breaking. Good or bad, something newsworthy happens somewhere in the world every minute of every day. But there has never been any news that is more significant, more life changing, more relevant to every human being than the news that a child was born in Bethlehem who came to save His people from their sin. The curse of sin was invaded that day with news that the Savior was born! History was changed forever. Today we celebrate that moment. We rejoice that God loves us enough to save us from our sins rather than giving us the condemnation we deserve. This Christmas, the staff of your Biblical Recorder extend our best wishes to you for a great Christmas celebration. We pray that your family will be blessed by the way you worship the Father and celebrate the gift of His Son. We pray that your neighbors who live in darkness will see the light of Jesus in you. We hope the whole world will benefit by your generosity to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions. Thank you for allowing us to serve you in 2018.
