(United Kingdom)—During this year's Christmas message, British Prime Minister David Cameron emphasized that the U.K. is a "Christian country" which has flourished due to its Christian values despite growing secularization. (Photo: PM David Cameron/via Gospel Herald)

"We celebrate the birth of God's only Son, Jesus Christ—the Prince of Peace. As a Christian country, we must remember what His birth represents: peace, mercy, goodwill and, above all, hope," the PM wrote in the message, which was shared on his personal Facebook page.

"I believe that we should also reflect on the fact that it is because of these important religious roots and Christian values that Britain has been such a successful home to people of all faiths and none," Cameron continued.

He also encouraged those celebrating the holiday with loved ones to take a moment to "think of those who cannot do the same," such as the thousands of Christians and other minorities driven from of their homes by the Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria. "If there is one thing people want at Christmas, it's the security of having their family around them and a home that is safe. But not everyone has that. Millions of families are spending this winter in refugee camps or makeshift shelters across Syria and the Middle East, driven from their homes by Daesh and [Syrian President Hafez] Assad," Cameron said.
