For this reason, and beyond all comprehension, God chose to become a man. Human blood was required to reverse the consequence of human sin. Herein lies the dilemma only God himself could conquer death, and God was not a man. Since man was the source of death, man would also have to be the solution in overcoming it. When Adam and his wife Eve first sinned against God by eating of the forbidden fruit, they brought death into the world. Interestingly, the first human life in all creation was a man named вЂњAdam.вЂќ It is worth noting that the name in Hebrew also means вЂњmanвЂќ and shares a root with the words вЂњredвЂќ and вЂњground.вЂќ This man was created as the first of all human life on earth, but he also became the first to bring death to humanity. Throughout the Bible, the color red has a strong association with life and blood.

The colors of red and green also have intriguing biblical relevance, particularly in so far as they represent life. Since the vibrant red and green colors of these plants have long had a meaningful association with winter, it seems natural that they would eventually become attached to the most significant celebration of the season, Christmas. In fact, at a time when most plants are barren, those that remain green and even blossom (eg: holly with its red berries and the poinsettia with its brilliant red leaves) captivate attention. In many areas of the world, red and green are the only bright colors that survive in nature during the winter.
