 We are here to celebrate Jesus' birth—the day that God took on humanity and lived as One of us. We have bought gifts for just about everyone else we care about this year, right? )And some we don't care about) Now, we are here to show affection to the King—to God Himself… What on earth do you bring to someone who not only has everything...made everything? Luke 2:8-14: What did the Angels and all Heaven give to our Baby Jesus that night? Worship and Praise!

Scriptures strongly imply that one of the very first things to happen upon entering Heaven will be to stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ or, "Bema Seat”(The word, "Bema" in Greek, simply means raised platform; in Ancient Rome it was where a Roman magistrate or ruler sat to make decisions and pass judgments; but, this word was also used by Paul in association with the Greek athletic contests known as the, "Isthmian Games", where winners of each event would be taken to a, "Bema" platform by the judge to receive his reward, usually in the form of a laurel wreath (crown of branches and leaves)): Romans 14:10-12, 2 Corinthians 5:10-11, John 19:13, 1 Corinthians 9:24-25.
