Happy New Year! Today we have our Christmas Service, where we excitedly look to the story of Jesus' birth!
Isaiah 35 is a radiant promise of our eternal home - a future of joy, healing, and restoration that Jesus secures for us. At the centre is the Christmas announcement in Isaiah 35:4: “He will come and save you.” That's why we celebrate on 25 December - because God has come near in Jesus, and He brings us home.

Christmas Service delivered on Thursday, December, 25th, 2025, at Serious Christian Church in Cape Town, South Africa
It's Friday, December 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes written by yours truly and heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. Filling in for Adam McManus, I'm Ean Leppin. (Contact@eanvoiceit.com) Christmas for Christians Internationally Hope you and your family had a blessed Christmas Day yesterday! But in some countries celebrating Christmas is illegal and must be done in secret. Persecution.org reported what Christians in certain countries risk by acknowledging the Christmas Holiday. In Brunei, in Asia, public displays of Christmas are banned. While Christians are allowed to recognize the holiday inside their homes or churches, they can't hold any public Christmas celebrations. The nation officially banned public Christmas displays in 2014, fearing that they could lead Muslims away from Islam. Muslims found violating the ban, by wearing Santa hats or in some fashion partaking in banned Christmas festivities, could face up to five years in prison. Additionally, Christians are prohibited from spreading the gospel to Muslims. In China, they allow approved groups to hold restricted Christmas celebrations, which vary by region. Individuals younger than 18 years old are forbidden to attend Christmas church celebrations, and authorities continue their campaign to force churches to inject communism into Christian worship. In Iran, Christmas gatherings are allowed in registered churches and approved districts. Small, unregistered house-churches, particularly those of Muslim converts to Christianity, are often raided by authorities. In November 2025, two individuals who converted to Christianity from Islam began serving a two-year prison sentence for charges related to their participation in a Christian house church. In addition, all church services are forbidden to be conducted in Farsi, Iran's native language. Instead, foreign languages, such as Armenian or Assyrian, are typically used to curb the spread of Christianity to native-born Muslim-Iranians. Read about other countries in the link on our transcript at www.theworldview.com Ephesians 6:18 says "praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints" Christians Blocked from Attending Christmas Service in Indonesia Morning Star News reports that Muslims in the West Java Province, Indonesia formed a human wall to block Christians from attending a Christmas service on December 14th. Videos on social media show police officers and onlookers watching dozens of Muslim men and women holding hands to form a human chain, making anti-Christian comments. Indonesian society in recent years has adopted a more conservative Islamic character, and churches involved in evangelistic outreach are at risk of being targeted by Islamic extremist groups, according to Open Doors. Nigerian Christian Receives Full Pardon from Death Sentence A Nigerian Christian farmer who was sentenced to death after killing a Fulani radical in self-defense following an attack on his farm has been released from prison after receiving a full pardon according to the Christian Post. Christian rights advocates including US Rep. Riley M Moore of West Virginia are celebrating the release of Sunday Jackson, a student and farmer from the Demsa Local Government Area of Adamawa State, who was sentenced to death in 2021 over a 2015 confrontation on his farm. Here is Representative Riley M Moore calling attention to this issue to the US House. MOORE: “I would urge the Nigerian government to take a look at pardoning Sunday Jackson, who is an individual who was fighting for his own life, defending his life against one of these Fulani militants. That Fulani militant lost his life in that struggle, and now that person, Sunday Jackson, is facing the death penalty! Where's the justice in that? All these Fulani militants are breaking the law. They are breaking Nigerian law. And so, Sunday Jackson disarms this person with a knife, protects his own life. He's going to prison, and now faces the death penalty, and Fulani militants, just roaming bands of them, with AK-47s, and that's no problem.” Moore went on to say ‘Sunday Jackson is free! After more than a decade in prison serving a death sentence for defending himself, Sunday Jackson has been pardoned…I have been advocating for Sunday's release both in public and in private meetings, including during my recent Congressional Delegation visit to Nigeria.' Psalm 138:7 says, Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me. Woman Dying of Cancer Receives Hundreds of Christmas Cards Good News Network tells of Clare Jones from Wales a mother of 3 who was told her cancer was no longer responding to treatment and given months to live made a simple request on Facebook she said, ‘After finding out last week that this is probably going to be my last Christmas. I am looking for ways to make it super special! I'm a simple person who likes simple things. I love Christmas Cards! I would love to have lots of cards this year!...when you are doing your cards could you pop an extra one for me?' That post was shared 10,000 times and her mailbox has received hundreds of cards this holiday season. Many of the cards contain show and movie tickets, vouchers for camping trips, free flights and other gifts. Jones told the BBC ‘I have many people around me who care for me. If love could cure cancer, I would be cured.' Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, December 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

In His Christmas message titled “The Promise Fulfilled,” Pastor Leonard explores how the birth of Jesus marked the long-awaited fulfillment of God's promise to Israel—and its expansion to all people. What was once experienced externally through kings, sacrifices, and systems is now made personal and internal through Christ, offering restored relationship with God, true peace, and abundant life. Christmas invites us to pause in wonder as we receive the good news of great joy: God has come near, and the promise is fulfilled in Jesus.

When Joseph first heard that his fiancee was pregnant, he graciously decided to quietly break the engagement. Then an angel showed up! As the angel described to Joseph what God was doing and what God wanted from Him, Joseph had a decision to make. Would he go the way that seemingly made sense and everyone else would have gone? Or would his trade his plan for another? What if trading your plan for God's plan is what Christmas is all about? Text: Matthew 1:18-25 Speaker: Aaron Patton

We hope that you enjoy this sermon from our Pastor, Dr. Robert Russell.
Christmas draws our attention to a defining truth: Jesus Christ is not legend or myth, but a real person who entered real history. His life is grounded in recorded genealogy, eyewitness testimony, and historical accounts that place Him firmly within time and space.The Gospels present verified witnesses who walked with Him, saw His works, and testified to His resurrection; claims made openly and confidently because they were true and observable.Jesus was born with purpose. He came into the world to save humanity from sin, entering history so He could lay down His life for it.Listen to this sermon and be blessed.

But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength so that through me the message might be proclaimed. 2 Timothy 4:16-17The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”. Matthew 1:23Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose, and we have come to worship him.” Matthew 2:1-2Stay Connected to the Body of Christ and your purpose May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
