Operation World Rescue
Objective: To rescue people from their self-centredness and rejection of the Almighty One.
Method: Direct divine intervention. Under codename 'Jesus', enter world as baby, born to teenage girl in downtown Bethlehem.
Contacts: 1. Girl Mary & fiancé Joseph – recommend personal visits by special agents to persuade them to join in operation.
2. Shepherds – lowlife locals – send a company of agents under cover of dark to inform them of time and place of the 'arrival' in Bethlehem. They should then want to spread news of the event in the locality.
3. Senior Persian Government Advisers – convince them that a special king is coming and lead them to the location by astral navigation. Their status and influence may be relied on to inform international leaders of the importance of this.

Evaluation of Operation World Rescue
Your Divine Majesty
Thank You for permitting me to assess Your plans for this mission and Your command that I be frank in my evaluation. I humbly offer the following observations for Your Almightiness' urgent consideration:
1. Your plans contain a serious flaw. Considering Your objective, there is too much reliance on the assistance of some earthlings in Your planning. If they are so weak and bad, why use them in their own rescue? It is illogical!
2. Choosing an unmarried girl to be 'mother' of Your Divine Incarnated Self would be bound to have negative repercussions, leading to a rejection of Yourself as illegitimate, and, therefore, not to be considered as the 'Son of God' at all.
3. The girl's fiancé would most likely terminate his contract to marry her and that would scupper the whole idea.
4. Including lower class, illiterate shepherds could easily misfire as there's no knowing how they would respond to any proposed nocturnal visitation by our agents.
5. We may be feeling as if our future is uncertain. It is in such times that God does speak There's a local king a few miles from Bethlehem in Jerusalem. One of our agents informs me that he is a real nasty, seeing threats to his position everywhere, even in his own family! He could hear about Your mission and try to neutralise it.
Evaluation Conclusion
With my greatest respect, Your Divine Majesty, I urge you strongly to reconsider. With all the Almighty Power and resources available to You, why rely on unpredictable earthlings? Just rely on Your Super Power to get the job done!

MEMO from His Divine Majesty, King of the Universe etc etc
Nothing is impossible with Me. The 'foolishness' of God is stronger than man’s strength. I choose the lowly things of this world and the despised things to nullify the things that are, so that no-one may boast before Me. Let him who boasts boast in the Lord!
[1 Cor 1:25,27-9]

Just imagine a bit deeper what Christmas is really about as you read the Bible accounts.

May you have a wonderful Christmas!

God bless.
