This past Sunday, my church's pastor Jeff Henderson gave a great message. The message is that God sent His Son Jesus because God assumes we need saving and therefore we need a Savior.
In Luke 2, the angels appeared to the shepherds to share the good news that God is bringing all people a Savior. 10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This is the reason we celebrate Christmas. Our Savior has been born!
But at the heart of it is: Do you believe you need saving? What do you need to be saved from? check out Jeff's message for yourself, it's a great message entitled Saving Christmas from 12/21. http://www.buckheadchurch.org/messages
And with all of that in mind, no one tells it better than Linus. There's something interesting that Linus does which I'd never noticed before in the many times I've watched my favorite Christmas special. As you know, Linus is NEVER without his trusty blanket. Except in a very poignant moment during his recitation. Watch closely:

Merry Christmas!

Linus wears his blanket as a shepherd wears a head scarf! I remember that without looking! ;-)
Nope! I was wrong! He drops it on the floor! How could I have forgotten?!?!?
