A young girl walked Into her
church the first Sunday In Dec-
ember and saw the pulpit cloth
was violet. She exclaimed, “Why
violet? I thought Christmas col-
ors were red and white."
Her pastor explained that vio-
let meant humility and sacrifice
and that red was used for the
meaning of loyalty and zeal es-
pecially in relation to the work of
the Holy Spirit as at Pentacost.
White is used to symbolize joy
and victory in Jesus Christ such
as the resurrection of Easter.
There seems to be other ideas
connected with Chlrstmas that
have their meaning from the se-
cular.
Recently I read several letters
of complaint to a church paper
because the paper had used the
word Xmas in a advertisement.
The general idea was that X
meant unknown as-it pertains to-
math. It does when it is a lower
case letter. When it is a capital, it
means times or multiplied by.
As the word is written “Xmas”
it is a contraction of a Greek sym-
bol and a Latin phrase. The Lat-
in phrase i3 “mispa" meaning to
send used as the ending of the
euchrist sending the participants
out with God’s blessing. The Greek
symbol is “X” which is a letter
of the' Greek alphabet When it
is spelled out it is done so with
three letters, “chi". You will re
cognize this as the first letters
of the name “Christ" or in the
Greek “xristos”. The smybol “X”
is seen in nearly every church in
combination with other symbols to
remind the worshipers of Jesus
the Christ.
We find what we want to find
in meanings of words and colors.
I wonder if all the discussion and
commotion does not really mean
that the Christ is unknown in our
personal lives when our lives ought
to be multiplied by the Christ
living* in us.
Wemifcht understand the word
to mean God sent (mass) his son
(X) Christ to say to us “The Word
was made flesh and dewelt among
us” or “This is the beginning of
the good news of Jesus Christ the
Son of God". Which ever way you
write it, may God’s son, The
Christ, be forever yours.
