b"In public these days, Christmas is seen as meaning that if we work hard, if we hold hands and breathe in unison, if we get together, we can make the world a better place. It\\u2019s like the song in the Live Aid concert in 1985, \\u201cWe Are the World.\\u201d That\\u2019s what most people think the meaning of Christmas is.\\xa0\\nBut after that 1985 concert, Bob Dylan said to the press that he was uncomfortable singing a song like that. They asked him why. He said, \\u201cBecause man cannot save himself.\\u201d So we look today unto Bob Dylan for the true meaning of Christmas\\u2014because he got it right.\\xa0\\nThe Bible says Jesus Christ came because we cannot save ourselves. Colossians 1 shows us 1) the need for reconciliation, 2) the way of reconciliation, and 3) the radical, thorough results of reconciliation.\\nThis sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 24, 1995.
