The Christmas legend says that a monk named Boniface used its triangular shape to to explain the trinity &#8211; that God was Father, Son and Holy Spirit. From that point on, the Germans call the tree &#8220;God&#8217;s Tree.&#8221; By the 16th century they Western Germany in the 16th century, they were used in plays to represent the tree in the garden with Adam and Eve and were decorated with apples. They were called &#8220;Paradeisbaum&#8221; (Paradise Trees) and were soon brought into homes and still decorated with apples and other fruits to celebrate Christmas. Later, dates, pretzels, and nuts were also used to decorate the tree.<\/p>\n<p>The evergreen was recognised as a symbol of eternal life. Soon candles were soon added the evergreen branches to represent the stars and that Jesus was the light of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Besides apples and other fruits, tradition says they also added Communion wafers wrapped in gold and silver foil that represented the fact that Jesus came into the world to save it, that like the communion bread, his body would be broken to save us from sin. Later the wafers were replaced with cookies cut into the shapes of bells, angels, stars, and hearts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Children&#8217;s Sermon or Object Lesson using a Christmas Tree<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gold Christmas Bulb<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Gold Christmas bulb reminds us of Heaven which is filled with the glory of God. The Bible tells us that in Heaven, the streets of the city are pure, clear gold-like glass (Rev.21:21). God wants you to be with Him in Heaven someday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you ever seen a BLACK Christmas Bulb?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>THERE IS NO Black Christmas Bulb. Just like there is no black Christmas bulb, there is one thing that can never be in Heaven. That is sin. Doing, or saying, or thinking bad things is called sin. Sin is anything that displeases God. Sin has caused sorrow and sadness in our world. God tells us in the Bible that all have sinned (Romans 3:23). But just like there is no black Christmas bulb, God doesn&#8217;t allow sin in heaven.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Red Christmas Bulb<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Red Christmas Bulb shows the way God made for you to have your sins forgiven-taken away. God loves you. He sent His own Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, from Heaven to take the punishment for your sin (John 3:16). Jesus came into the world to save us from punishment for sin. He is called our Savior! &#8220;&#8230;the blood of Jesus Christ, God&#8217;s Son, cleanses us from all sin&#8221; (I John 1:7).<\/p>\n<p><strong>White Christmas Bulb<\/strong><br \/>\nThe white Christmas bulb reminds us that you can be made clean from sin. When we sin, we can tell god about our sin, and ask for rogiveness and when we do his blood washes away our sin and makes us white as snow! (I John 1:9).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Green Christmas Tree<\/strong><br \/>\nThe green Christmas tree reminds us of the new life, everlasting life, we can receive from God. The Bible tells us to &#8220;grow in grace in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ&#8221; (II Peter 3:18).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Blue Christmas Bulb<\/strong><br \/>\nThe blue bulb is the same as water. Jesus, to show he was giving his life to God was baptized in water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Christmas Lights<\/strong><br \/>\nJesus was born as a light of the world. He came to bring us out of darkness and into the light. Do you want to walk in the light of Jesus this Christmas?<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Silver or Gold Star<\/strong><br \/>\nYou can add a star at the top of the Christmas tree as a reminder that the wisemen followed the star looking for Jesus. Will you seek Jesus this Christmas?<br \/>\n<strong>Applications<\/strong><br \/>\nUse this as a presentation of the plan of salvation for a Christmas Children&#8217;s sermon or as a Christmas Object Lesson.<\/p>\n<p><!--Creative Youth Ideas: Christmas Collection--><\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.creativeyouthideas.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/0004_underline1_big-300x15.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"5\" \/><\/center><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativechristmasideas.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-5669\" title=\"Creative Youth Ideas: &quot;Christmas Collection&quot; ebook\" src=\"http:\/\/www.creativeyouthideas.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/christmas_ebook_arrow_sm.jpg\" alt=\"Get Creative Youth Ideas: &quot;Christmas Collection&quot; ebook\" width=\"192\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <span style=\"color: #cc0000;\"><strong><a title=\"Christmas Collection eBook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.creativechristmasideas.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #cc0000;\">Christmas Collection<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Games and Activities helping youth discover the Reason for the Season.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Get more than 200 creative ideas for planning a Youth Christmas celebration or Christmas Party party.
