holiday. but let's think more deeply about what kind of event we are celebrating today. the birth of the savior into the world is an event which, without exaggeration, all of humanity expected. this expectation began from the time of our ancestors, adam and...

reveal to us the full complexity of this ancient history. repeatedly on the pages of the old testament books, we see that entire nations, and even all of humanity, were at risk of disappearing from the face of the earth for their iniquities, as was the case in the time of noah.

and give glory to the father and the son and the holy spirit. after the sixth song of the canon for matins , the small octyamlya is recited again, after which the choir performs the kandad, another short holiday prayer that reveals the theological meaning of the christmas celebration.

before performing the ninth song of the christmas canon, the protodeacon performs the burning of frankincense. burning with incense symbolizes our prayer to god, which, like the fragrant smoke of incense, the one who ascends must diligently ascend to god. coding is a very ancient way of honoring god. mentioned in the bible. during the time of moses, the lord himself commanded that the burning be performed in the tabernacle, the camp temple of the israelites, in the morning and evening. the apostle john the theologian, in the biblical book of revelation, describes that the angel of the lord continually burns incense before the throne of god.

the salvation of the person for whom christ came to earth is not given to us on its own, without our desire for participation, a person must believe in christ, follow him of his own free will, rejecting everything sinful from himself, and we are reminded of this by those preceding the holiday.

spiritual joy in the birth of the lord is a reward for those who have walked the path of the nativity fast, trying to overcome sinful passions, become kinder to others, and learn to follow the commandments of the holy gospel. this is why many people miss the nativity of christ; for them it is a day off on the calendar. what's more, next

christmas day events for such people are often forgotten, because they do not touch their hearts; only those who are waiting for the birth of the divine child diligently prepare themselves for this meeting, he receives mercy and blessing from god on these bright days. the king is nursing the newborn.

pagan customs. which is, for example, dressing up in pagan costumes. lord. amen. lord have mercy.

saints, remembering themselves and each other and the whole belly.

in the church, the grace of god is especially felt; after praying in the church, a believer comes out cleansed, comforted, and spiritually strengthened. at the end of antiphon, the choir performs

the ancient church chant of the only begotten son, which tells us about the incarnation of the son of god, about the birth of our savior into the world.

the nativity of christ, filled with such rich hymns in its essence, the church constantly praises the savior for his sacrifice, incomprehensible to the human mind, which he made for our sake. these chants gradually reveal the theological depth of the meaning of the nativity of christ, which for virtuous christians becomes more than just an experience of the event. but also by personal participation in it with all the saints, remembering ourselves and each other and giving up our whole life to christ god. to you,

lord. for god is good and a lover of mankind, and to you we send glory to the father and the son, the holy spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. the small entrance reminds those praying about the earthly

singing, hallelujah, hallelujah, aliluia.

in services led by a bishop, the dekiri trikiri is often used.

liturgical objects containing two or three candles. this is a symbolic meaning, because the two candles symbolize the duality of natures in christ, divine and human. three candles symbolize the trinity of the deity. we believe in one god in essence, but trinity in the hypostases of the father, son and holy spirit.

the choir and clergy sing a chant in greek, ispanla eti despota, which translated means many years of the lord, this is a prayerful wish for strength, strength and health to the ruling bishop. at the end of the small entrance, the bishop gives a blessing to those praying. the choir performs a festive troparion. a troparion is a small chant that briefly conveys the meaning of the celebration being celebrated. today the troparion of the holiday reveals the deep meaning of christ's nativity. he's a lucky man, go, go,

the holz of the government, serpent, is coveted by the sun of the government, and to you, vechet, and to you, vechet, the meanings are spoken, lord, glory to you. this is how this holiday chant sounds in russian: your nativity, christ our god, illuminated the world with the light of knowledge, for through it those who served as stars were taught to worship you, the sun of righteousness, and to know you

from the heights of the rising luminary. lord, glory to you. following the festive trapar, the choir performs a kandak, this is another short chant that explains the deep theological meaning celebration being celebrated.

christ, having been born in the den, persecuted and seen by everyone, thereby accomplished the greatest thing in the history of mankind. his incarnation

to the father and the son and the holy spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. one of the most important moments of the service begins. the choir performs a liturgical chant called the cherubic song. cherubic song is one of the main chants of the divine liturgy.

following the primate, all the clergy in the altar venerate the throne and bow to the worshiper. having completed the prayer, the primate goes to the altar, where he finishes the proskomedia, proskomedia - according to ancient tradition, the bishop commemorates the living and the dead,

taking out particles from the prosphora. the particles removed in this way at the end of the service are immersed in a chalice with the blood of christ. we believe that the blood of christ washes away the sins of all those commemorated at the divine liturgy. that's the point liturgical commemoration of the living and the dead. that is why there is a tradition for believers to write memorial notes and pass them on. them to the altar, where the clergyman prays, pronouncing the names of everyone indicated in the memorial notes.
