The Christmas tree is a symbolic representation of several events in the life of Jesus Christ. The traditional Christmas tree has a star on top, symbolizing the bright start in the sky which marked the birth of Jesus. Gifts below the tree, symbolize the gifts presented to Jesus, and is itself a tree is a symbol of the cross on which Jesus would be crucified. Often in The Bible, the cross is referred to as "a tree," and so the Christmas tree, though used on the day that celebrates the birth of Christ, is a foreshadowing of the ultimate purpose of Jesus coming as a man.
