The Feast

 Give your gifts, put berries on your evergreens, feast on meals reminiscent of sacrifices to gods now considered to be idols, scatter the red blots and blotches over everything and everyone like sacrifice blood, but now a greater sacrifice is made, a greater gift is given, a purer blood is scattered and celebrated in communion and mass, the Son has given his blood on a cross and with it has blessed all Mankind, and God the Father, the One True God has accepted it and set aside what wrath He would otherwise have kindled, as He sees the blood shed for you and for me of His perfected, sinless, beloved Son, Jesus. Jesus has done it, when nobody else could do it. He has given his obedience even including death on that cross and we are all blessed by it because we needed a once and for all effective and holy sacrifice because of our sins, and God has raised him to life again to be our Lord forever. This is our feast once we believe and hold to his teachings.
