A friend decided to reply to a post about Christmas from a conservative Facebook page. Many people were not happy to hear the truth about Christmas when the Lord gave many to speak. The following are some of the highlights – to strengthen believers in Jesus Christ even as they may struggle to escape the captivating spirit of the season.
“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.” (1 Corinthians 2:16 BSB)
You have believed the lie that only God can judge you. You are ignorant of the fact though, that God Himself comes in the flesh through His Children to judge. They are the living proof of His Ressurrection. This is the “relationship” that you lack in Jesus Christ.
“Jesus Christ the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)
Here is what Jesus said to the Samaritan woman.
“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him. God is a spirit, and they who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:23-24)
Notice how it’s not optional. God makes the Rules as to how He will be worshipped. “ they who worship Him MUST worship in Spirit and in Truth!
“I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things.” (Isaiah 45:7 ASV)
“And the Lord said to Satan, “From where do you come?” So Satan answered the Lord and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.” Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?” So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing? Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!” And the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person.” So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.” (Job 1:7-12 NKJV)
Satan can only do that which God sends him out to do. If you read job you will also find that Job blames God for His troubles, not satan.
“For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.” (Colossians 1:16 NKJV)
Is not satan among those things? Of course he is.
You have been believing a lie. God is the one who is in full control. The Lord hates this day and therefore brings calamity on it.
Christmas is a day the whole world, nominal Christendom, and those not affiliated with nominal Christendom lift up. Both are blind and so naturally being slaves to the flesh they will do the things of the flesh. Therefore, you have those drunken parties and gluttony, that Aaron referred to.
“And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.” (Acts 5:32)
“He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.” (John 7:38-39)
Do not these verses speak about a present reality to rejoice in always and not a historical event which isn’t even dated in the Bible? And if the physical keeping of the Jewish feasts passed away so that the present reality of them is experienced, then what have we to do with keeping a holiday never detailed in Scripture? More about the feasts here.
I hadn’t considered it this way before, it’s truly disturbing.
The origin of the central element of the Mass is a pagan one of Baal/sun god worship, holding up a wafer to receive life from the sun’s rays. And they attach Christ’s Name to this! Speak of Daniel’s abomination of desolation (Matthew 24:15)! And all the Protestants, who think they aren’t Catholic, follow and believe basically no different from the Catholics even if they don’t hold Mass (many do).

I don’t celebrate it because I don’t want to incur God’s wrath, celebrating the birth of the Babylonian “savior” in the name of Jesus Christ. Prophets like Jeremiah warned against doing so at great cost to himself. There has been enough judgment on my household as it is. These sum it up very quickly.Why don’t you celebrate Christmas?
That Devilish Spirit of Christmas
And if you really want to get into the facts, history, meaning of words, etc. you can read The Two Babylons and you will see that what I am saying is true.
