"To each of you my friends.
Behold, I bring you tidings ot
great joy which shall be to all

this day, in the city of David,
a Savior, which is Christ the
Lord. He shall save liis people
from their sins. He has come to
seek and to save those who are
lost. He is saying to each ot
you, *Come imto me all ye that
labor and I will give you rest.*
Yes, he is saying, “Whosoever
will, ^ him come and drink of
the Water of Life.'t am th«:
Light of the world.’ There is no
need for anyone to walk In
darkness. This being true, why
should anyone be lost? Since
