Many associate St. Nicholas as Santa Claus, and we all know who Santa Claus is. But we haven't took the time to find out how he came to be the jolly man who delivers presents to kids all in one night all around the world. Santa Claus comes from a man name Nicholas who was a christian prisoner in Rome.
He was in prison during the rule of Emperor Diocletian, during the year 303 he made a call to began one of the most brutal persecutions of christians. So many people were killed that the executioners were exhausted. During that time Nicholas saw someone about to be killed by a sword, he said, "Don't do it," and bravely grabbed the sword before it could pierce, saying, "He's done nothing to deserve this." 217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A8KQo079p
By saving that man, he would continue to spread the good news of Christ in Rome. After Nicholas endured terrible torture for not denying Christ he was released. He spent the rest of his life establishing orphanages and protecting poor children. He was loyal to advancing the gospel of Christ in unique ways. One time he stuffed a stocking with money and threw window of a home of three very poor girls so they wouldn't be sold into a house of prostitution. 217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsjbP9CtqM
Many years after his death, people began to call him St. Nicholas. He was always remembered for his faith in Jesus Christ. Most of the time when people here the name St. Nicholas we think Santa Claus. But people in Rome think about the man of faith who never stopped giving and caring. 217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQBYgkemHT
