Christmas: Osinbajo gives message of hope to Nigerians
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says the celebration of Christmas brings hope, joy, God’s Grace and relief to Nigerians.
Osinbajo spoke with State House correspondents on Sunday after the Christmas Service at Aso Villa Chapel where he delivered the sermon.
According to him, the celebration is good news because Jesus Christ offers himself for the sins of man.
“My message is the message of Christmas which is the birth of the new covenant; the birth of Grace; God’s Grace and mercy are what we celebrate today because the birth of Jesus Christ is the birth of the Grace of God.
“From the moment Christ was born, God said he was not going to hold us to account for our sins for as long as we believed in what he did; the sacrifice of Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ came to pay in full for all of our sins.
“So, really why we celebrate is because this is good news; before, we had to pay for our sins; the consequence of sin we have to bear.
