Red & Green Colors

“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.” (Gal. 2:20 ESV)

The reason for the season reminders all around us 

Christmas decorations, colors, and their symbolism can remind us of the true reason for the season, which is Jesus. 

Christmas colors

Red and green, the traditional colors of Christmas, have significant meaning at Christmas time.  

·      Red - Red is the color which represents the blood Jesus shed for us. “For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” (Matt. 26:28)

·      Green - Green signifies the eternal life that we have because of the sacrifice of Christ. “And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.” (1 John 5:11)

Therefore

When you see the green and red colors of Christmas you can use it as a reminder to praise God personally for what He has done, and maybe, as an opportunity to share your faith with the lost.

“We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.” (1 John 5:19)

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)
