Re: We're Not Putting X-Mas Trees Up!
BTW Jesus should never ever be worshipped/celebrated as baby, he is all conquering king sitting on the throne. Of course, that doesn't sell merchandise.

Amazing folks will say it's a day set aside to celebrate Christ but don't even know who set it aside and why that date. Amazing.
God can only be worshipped with TRUTH!!! Never ever can he be worshipped with a lie, ever.

Who cares about the date??? I don't care if someone set it in the middle of july when it's 120 degrees outside. It's not the date that we celebrate.

Mark your mistaken, because the World respects nothing that is of God.
The World perverts everything it touches. They celebrate xmas but the True Living God is not paid homage. People are not brought to repentence, and led to salvation.
Mortal! We Spirits of Christmas do NOT live only ONE DAY of our year. We live the whole three-hundred and sixty-five. So is it TRUE of the Child born in Bethlehem. He does not live in men's hearts ONE DAY of the year, but in ALL DAYS OF THE YEAR. You have chosen not to seek Him in your heart. Therefore, you will come with me and seek Him in the hearts of men of good will.
~A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, 1843.
How sad that people don't even get it.

for goodness sake, why can't you just celebrate the new born king and forget about what the world thinks or does. We had a packed house today 800-900 peopletoday simply because we put the word out to the community that we were having a Christmas service. There was nothing pagan about the service in fact, we had a good old fashioned holy ghost time in the lord with shouting, rejoicing and the alters packed with sinners. The people in the community respected the season that we honored christ the Lord

There were many Mother Son religions that had a god that once a year became a baby. Semiramis queen of Babylon was dipicted as a mother with her son Tammuz. The son, was believed to be the incarnation of Nimrod.
The Gospel is about the DEATH, BURIAL AND RESURRECTION.
Every year the different Christian sects return to their Mother to celebrate the Mass.
2Co 11:1-4
"Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him."
