According to Isaiah 9:6, for unto us a child is born unto us a Son was given. Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus. This happened at the perfect time and at the perfect place. The Christmas story is rooted in history. The birth of Jesus has left an indelible mark in world history. Christmas finds its roots in God's Word.
God's Word is 66 books in two major sections. The Old Testament is 39 books and dates before the time of Jesus. The New Testament is 27 books and involves the early church. Matthew and Luke tell the story of Jesus's birth. All four Gospels are distinct and different.  Mark and John describe the life and teachings of Jesus. None of the Gospel writers give us the whole story.
So here is the story of Jesus's birth. This is the story we call Christmas.
