Roger Montgomery’s Christmas Message 2019
Roger Montgomery
December 20, 2019
While progressive morality – the bending of what is acceptable (and legal!) to suit the times – sounds appealing, Christmas reminds us of a great and unchanging truth; that at a single point in our history a man, with a revolutionary claim to being the son of God, came to down to Earth to proclaim freedom. And we can turn to the birth of Jesus as a sign that peace and harmony can exist if we are free not to do what we want, but to do what we should. I hope and pray you and your family experience the great joy and peace that is intended for you this Christmas. And this year I also pray for the safety of those affected by bushfire.
