Happy New Year! A new year, 2025, has begun. The weather in the Kanto region has been fine since the end of last year. In the Kanto region, the weather has been fine since the end of last year, so the first day of the year was also a clear and cloudless day. New Year's Day this tear was also a clear and sunny day without any cloud. I wish you all the very best for the year 2025. I pray that your year 2025 will be a year of peace and joy, with God's protection.
Today's scripture is a part of our study in the church school class. The Bible verses today are from Matthew 3:7 onward, in conjunction with the church school class study. The scene is John the Baptist. Elizabeth, the mother of John was a relative of Jesus' mother, Mary. It means that Jesus and John the Baptist were also relatives. This background may have brought Jesus to John's Baptismal movement when John started the movement, and Jesus also worked with John. However, when John was arrested, Jesus left the wilderness of Judea and returned to his hometown in Galilee. And He began to preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Why did Jesus part company with John and start the “Kingdom of God Movement” instead of the Baptismal movement? This is the clue for today's message.

Our church celebrated the Nativity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, by holding a Christmas service on the 22nd and a Christmas Eve candlelight service on the 24th with many people. Especially on the 22nd, we had a love feast with newcomers, and in the afternoon, we had a celebration party where we watched a performance by each class and enjoyed it together. < br /> Today is the last Sunday we will offer worship services for this year. This morning, we will share the Word of God with Ephesians chapter 5 as the given passage. Here Paul says, “You were darkness before, but now you are light, united to the Lord. Light is a lamp that illuminates the darkness and therefore we are able to walk in the right direction.
I believe that the world today has lost this “light”. The leaders of each country are so occupied with their own country that they seem to have no time to worry about other countries. In these times, I would like to share with you the importance of walking as a child of light through today's scriptures. < /span>

According to Luke 2, which describes the scene of the birth of Jesus Christ, Augustus, then emperor of the Roman Empire, conducted a survey of the world's population. This survey allowed Rome to determine the correct number of inhabitants of the provinces, to strictly collect taxes, and to impose military service and labor on the inhabitants of the provinces for the purpose of defending the surrounding areas.
In response to the population survey, Joseph, who had been living in Galilee, took his wife Mary, who was pregnant, up to Bethlehem in Judea. However, all the inns were full, and Mary gave birth to Jesus in a stable where animals were staying. Thus, Jesus, who was born as the Savior of the world, was laid in a manger. The Bible says, “For there was no place for them to stay in the parlor.” However, there is no word for “lodging” in the original text. It says, “There was no room for them in the guest room.
We will read about what Christmas was all about, with Gospel of Luke as a clue.
