I find it hypocritical that anyone or any Nation would recognize Christmas as a holy day yet dismiss GOD’S Seventh-Day Sabbath, approve of the murdering of the innocent through live birth abortions, seek to change GOD’S institution of marriage and family through same-sex legislation and openly war against the TEN COMMANDMENTS being displayed in their State and Federal buildings.
I don’t understand those of us who consider ourselves saved and gifted by GOD with The Blessed Holy Spirit participating in the Christianized pagan festival of Christmas, especially since the Holy Spirit is grieved by such wicked indulgences.
I can’t fathom how anyone who is truly gifted by YHVH with the SPIRIT of HOLINESS can continue to perpetuate the lie and honor idol gods and doctrines of demons when the LORD explicitly forbids it.
Deuteronomy 12:2-4
“Destroy completely all the places where the nations that you are driving out worship their gods—on the high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree. Tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, burn their Asherah poles, cut down the carved images of their gods, and wipe out their names from every place. Don’t worship the Lord your God this way.”Leviticus 20:22-23
“You are to keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them, so that the land where I am bringing you to live will not vomit you out. You must not follow the statutes of the nations I am driving out before you, for they did all these things, and I abhorred them.”
There isn’t any record of any believer in Christ acknowledging or celebrating the birth of Christ as a holiday. Indeed, how can one celebrate the birthday of GOD who is without beginning and without end?
There isn’t any record or scripture commanding that the earthly arrival of the HOLY MESSIAH be celebrated annually and treated as a sacrament.
However, the MESSIAH himself asked that we remember his death at the Passover until his return. (1 Corinthians 11:25-27)
In light of the historical and wicked origin of the Christmas festival and our LORD’S command not to participate in such things, how can any true follower of CHRIST pay homage to idols and perpetuate the lie through songs, gift giving and merrymaking? How can we take the resources that GOD has entrusted to us and spend them on Satan while starving and ignoring distressed Saints and those whom the LORD has sent to watch for our souls?
Whereas the world and her Christianity will applaud Christmas and everyone who acknowledges Christmas and her fickle and prejudiced spirit of annual public buying and gift-giving, the LORD doesn’t recognize any of it nor sanctions it for His sheep.
Proverbs 14:12
There is a way that seems right to a person,
but its end is the way to death.
As The Scriptures have proclaimed, God has commanded us to observe HIS ETERNAL COMMANDMENTS and LAW perpetually and abandoned the ways of the Nations.
How can a disobedient and wicked generation offer any genuine celebration of a MESSIAH that they hate and crucify daily in their laws, in their sexual immoralities, and in their pagan traditions?
How can anyone see what is right unless they first repent of and acknowledge what is wrong? (John 3:3-7)
REPENT!!!!
