I have not problem with some. As "Holy" tends to be generic in it's current use. I have no problem giving honor to veterans or mothers and fathers etc....
I don't belive in celebrating on Easter but Passover. Another thing I find amazing is everyone fights tooth and nail over pagan holydays but MY "GOSH" don't you throw me under the law concerning Jewish festivals instituted by God of which POINT TO STILL FUTURE THINGS!! Amazing!

and we are also told NOT to argue with one another on our differing views of these days we esteem or don't esteem.

So ya all carry on....I'm outta here.
And you, too, are right. (Refer to my above post. #360)

Re: We're Not Putting X-Mas Trees Up!

Lets all take our clothes off I am sure they were made by some fellow who is a pagon. Good grief!!!!!!!!!! How about finding something good. I live in a small rural town in the south but there is a lady down the street who is drinking chicken blood and making sacrifices and we are arguing about a tree, sleeve length ,skirt length etc. etc. Do you realize anyone who considers themselves a Christian is holy compared to most of the world. It is hard for us in the U.S. to see past our noses.

Re: We're Not Putting X-Mas Trees Up!

I guess I must be stupid or not prayed up. But I cant figure out how one can read between the lines and come up with the idea that celebration of Christmas is a sin amd they let women speak in church when that is easy to read about. Now dont bash me I dont believie its wrong. I just dont understand how they can pick and choose.

Cool, now we can discuss whether the Biblical cross was really shaped like a small letter t, or if the very cross itself has pagan origins...

Whoa! Now that's a scary thought! So, Billy boy, when you do the flip flop, don't you even consider that those who you convert might loose interest, and disregard even what truth you have given them? Bill, you are disqualified to advise anyone. You kill the message by your track record.

Just cool your jets, and sit under some good ministry for over 20 years and then let's see how you're doing Bill.

I don't believe you believe that. I don't believe you care. Wake up Bill, and smell the pine needles.
