Here’s what President
Trump said in a video that has been banned by You Tube:
“To every family
across our nation, the First Lady and I want to wish you all a very, very Merry
Christmas.
For Christians,
this is a joyous time to remember God's greatest gift to the world. More than
two thousand years ago, the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary. He said, ‘Do not be
afraid, you have found favour with God.’ The angel told her that she would give
birth to a baby boy, Jesus, who would be called the Son of the Most High. Nine
months later, Christ was born in the town of Bethlehem. The Son of God came
into the world in a humble stable.
As Christians
everywhere know, the birth of our Lord and Saviour changed history forever. At
Christmas, we give thanks to God and that God sent his only Son to die for us
and to offer everlasting peace to all humanity. More than two millennia after
the birth of Jesus Christ, his teachings continue to inspire and uplift
billions and billions of people all over the globe. His Divine word still fills
our hearts with hope and faith. And, Christians everywhere still strive to live
by Jesus' timeless commandment to his disciples, ‘Love one another.’
Tonight, we ask
that God will continue to bless this nation. And, we pray that He will grant
every American family a Christmas season full of joy, hope, and peace.
On behalf of Melania and the entire Trump
family, Merry Christmas to all and best wishes for a very, very great and happy
new year. Thank you.”
