Reformed Church leader Bogárdi Szabó sends Christmas message
The head of the Hungarian Reformed Church’s synod said Christmas is a celebration of “God’s intervention”, in his message on Tuesday, marking Christmas Eve.
“What we celebrate at Christmas is that God intervened in all of the world’s affairs,” bishop Istvan Bogárdi Szabó told MTI.
“Man wants to be sovereign and feels humiliated when God tells them what to do.
The modern man of all ages complains if God ‘steps in’ into their personal life by giving advice, stopping an action or giving punishment,” he said. “Yet, there is a community that not only claims that it needs God’s help in choosing the right path, but also confesses that it cannot decide the right path on its own,” Bogárdi Szabó said.
“We, Christians stand before God like ones who are lost seeing that the best plans made by man end in a bad way,” he said.
Christians yet believe that there is solution to the world’s problems, but solely in the hands of God, said Bogárdi Szabó.
