Christmas is telling you that you could never get to heaven on your own. God had to come to you.

To love our success more than God and our neighbor hardens the heart, making us less able to feel and to sense.

The gospel has two parts. It has the part that says you're a sinner, and it has the part that says you're loved and accepted.
