1Pe 1:18 knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;
1Pe 1:19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, even the blood of Christ:
1Pe 1:20 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of the times for your sake,
You can buy almost any material thing with silver and gold, but the soul and spirit money cannot buy. Someone may pretend to love for money, but real love comes from a pure heart, coming from God above. God loves us so much that he sent Jesus. This was the plan from the beginning of time. The Christmas story celebrates his coming in the most humble way; born in a stable of poor parents. He was fully human, born of the virgin Mary and he is the only begotten Son of God, who had no sin. At the fullness of time he came to redeem us by his own blood as an eternal atonement for our sins. This Christmas time is a time of joy, because Jesus, the Lamb of God, takes our sins away when we believe in him. We shall live forever in God's family by believing that Jesus has done this for us. We willingly serve our Lord, our Great High priest and the King of Kings; because he lives we shall live with him forever, amen.
