Thanksgiving is a season that is very much in accord with the themes and teachings of Jesus Christ. – John Clayton
Christians were instructed to serve others, and the thanksgiving was for the grace of God and the fact that God offered a way for man to return to a positive relationship with Him. – John Clayton
There was no instruction to be thankful that the Christians were special people, chosen people. There was no nationalistic, political or ethnic superiority to be thankful for. – John Clayton
