This year I’ve been watching online services in two of our local nondenominational churches. It’s much worse than I thought, if that’s possible. They LOVE Christmas! This morning, one pastor said he has trees (plural)🎄🎄🎄🎄in his home, and he talked about Christmas lights. Both churches mention having photos taken with Santa in some of the Christmas events planned. Very disheartening. I don’t understand. One of first things the Lord showed me when I was first saved was the error (for lack of a better word) of the Christmas tree. He just simply showed me, and out it went. Be blessed, sis. 🙌🏻
All one has to do is look at the worldly “nativity scene” and compare it to what God’s written word says and that should be a major tip off to these so called preachers of the Word to start questioning this so called”tradition” they are conforming to!! 💔😔
I was just reading about another Christian that doesn’t celebrate all for the same reasons the Good Lord has shown us.
This was his ending statement:
“As this world celebrates Christmas, remember, what the Bible truly teach- es about this worldly holiday. It is the right time that we learn the truth and let the truth transform our lives.
God is not impressed by how many gifts you gave or received during Christmas. He isn’t impressed with how pompous your Christmas decorations are. He isn’t after what feels good for us, but He wants to see whether we will follow His commandments or not.
So, will you still keep Christmas?
Some will and some won’t.
Some will ignore the truth, while others will act on it.
I hope you and I belong to the group of people who will follow God no matter what the consequences may be.”
Great quote! I love Jesus so much more than the X Mass! When I got rid of my holiday decor-much of it was handmade and sentimental- I kept saying, do you love this more than Jesus? (Trees, Cathy? Sounds like me before God showed me the lies I was believing as truth!)
I’m “stealing” that quote! I promise I won’t take credit for it, lol
It’s the enchantment and magical awe of the day that has them bound to it. Even those who have left the RCC are still observing the day! There seems to be a blindness put on them and maybe it is to test to see who loves the truth and desires to walk in it.
Yes, it’s all human tradition. This year it’s hitting me how very much in the minority we are who don’t celebrate Christmas. I appreciate being able to share with you and Sherry. It really does help a lot. I sense a darkness this time of year. I know you know what I mean.
I know exactly what you mean! We will stay strong in what we KNOW the Good Lord has shown us and pray all others we love and care about will “hear” what we have “heard” 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️🙌
We are not being legalistic or judgmental ❤️ don’t let Satan tell you that either! Or even let you think that for one iota of a second!
Do you get the tv show 60 minutes?
This is some of what will be on tonight:
Lourdes:
Bill Whitaker reports from the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, a Marian shrine in southern France and the site of 70 medical miracles recognized by the Catholic Church. 60 MINUTES goes inside the Lourdes Office of Medical Observations where world-renowned doctors and researchers conduct decade-long investigations into the dozens of claims of miraculous cures made every year. They determine which cases can be medically explained and which cannot.
Nichole Marks are the producers
2 Thessalonians
9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Notice that that verse says, “pleasure in unrighteousness?” Says a lot about those who refuse to let go of X Mass. Father, may their “pleasure” for a season come to an end, amen.
I am very grateful for you, my dear sisters, this time of year. It’s especially hard to see pastors promoting this lie of a blasphemous day, even confessing that it is pagan! And now, the old line, “pagans stole the traditions from Christians, not the other way around” is spreading again. I’ve also noticed how mean-spirited supposed Christians are- worse than ever! You’d think I was trying to take away their idol… well, yeah… I would love to do that. God has called us to be Ezekiels and Jeremiahs, not Gideons.
Found out where the brethren are getting the idea that “pagans stole from Christians.” There is a Facebook page titled, “Christianity for the New Age.” New Age is permeating the churches more and more and the undiscerning are eating it up. It satisfies the senses.
