Did they have the Christmas spirit? They all had the same response to the news of the day as announced by angels . There is really only one word to describe those responses and the word is worship. Yes , those who were there to witness the birth left praising God . The Christmas spirit according to the scriptures is that of worship and praise ,"for unto you is born a savior who is Christ The Lord."
