The Man In The Red Robe

Happy Christmas!

We're all celebrating today, or will be on the day this post is scheduled for. I hope you are enjoying your day and your loved ones.

Did Santa come down your chimney last night leaving wonderful presents under your tree?

Good!

Well, let me tell you about another guy who is described as having a Red robe, a guy who is much greater than old St Nic - not to mention, that this guy is real!

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. 
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” (Revelation 19-21)

The man i'm talking about is Jesus.
And He promises much more than Santa ever can - I mean, just read that last paragraph again!
But He's scary. He's scary because this Jesus is the one who holds the keys for hell, this Jesus has a robe on that is covered in blood.
Unlike a Santa who skips over those who don't believe in Him, Jesus will actually punish and reign vengeance upon unbelievers. While at the same time bringing His people into an eternal heaven with Him, and to enjoy Him and paradise forever...

Happy Christmas - It's all about this guy in a red robe
