| I |
Thou
shalt not leave ''Christ'' out of
Christmas. |
| |
|
| II |
Thou
shalt not value thy gifts by the cost,
for many shall signify love that is more
blessed and beautiful than sliver and
gold. |
| |
|
| III |
Thou
shalt give thyself with thy gifts, thy
love, thy personality, and thy service
and shall increase the value of thy gifts
a hundred fold and they who receiveth
them shall treasure them forever. |
| |
|
| IV |
Thou
shall not let Santa Claus take the place
of Christ, lest Christmas become a fairy
tale, rather than a sublime reality in
the spiritual realm. |
| |
|
| V |
Thou
shalt not burden thy servants, the sales
girl, the mail carrier and the merchant. |
| |
|
| VI |
Thou
shalt not neglect the church. Its
Christmas services are planned to help
spiritualize the Christmas season for
thee, thy family, and thy friends. |
| |
|
| VII |
Thou
shalt not neglect the needy. Let thy
bountiful blessings be shared with the
many who will go hungry and cold unless
you are generous at Christmas. |
| |
|
| VIII |
Thou
shalt be as a little child. Christmas is
the day of the Christ child; not until
thou has become, in spirit, as a little
child art thou ready to enter into the
Kingdom of heaven. |
| |
|
| IX |
Thou
shalt prepare thy soul for Christmas.
Verily, most of us spend much time and
money getting gifts ready, but few
seconds in preparing our souls. |
| |
|
| X |
Thou
shalt give thy heart to Christ. Let thy
Christmas list have Christ in my
heart at the top as thy gift to Him
this Christmas. |
