Fake and Phony War on Christmas

The season is almost over.

And so, it will be another 11 months until the phony “War on Christmas” resumes.

Does Texas need a Merry Christmas law? – Another front in the fraud that is the “War on Christmas.”

A war that is all about secular concerns (nativity scenes, saying “Merry Christmas”) while purposely neglecting any and all mention of Jesus Christ.

Christmas may be the time of year when the gospel of Jesus Christ gets preached less than any other. Not that the churches preach the gospel ANYTIME, but at Christmas, even lip service to the gospel is nil.

MORE: Lip Service to Jesus Christ

By a great coincidence, this article (like thousands of others the Corporate Media devotes to the distracting topic), refuses to make mention of Our Saviour, Jesus Christ.

The purposes of the so-called War on Christmas are

to make apostates feel like they are real Christians by saying “Merry Christmas.”
to distract from the stated reason for the Season of Greed: the birth of Jesus Christ.
to promote the pagan holiday season which goes by the name of Christmas.

Meanwhile, who has time to share the gospel?

There’s a war to be fought!

HAS the reader bought into the fake War on Christmas?

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
—2 Corinthians 4:3

Christmas 2016: Christmas in a Pagan Land

“Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:”
–Isaiah 29:13

Christmas is a time of paganism BUT Christmas is also a time of good cheer.

There is some confusion that paganism is all dour darkness and dreary times.

It is not.

Paganism can be bright and cheery. But make no mistake: though one be bright and cheery and wish others well for the season, one is not necessarily a Christian.

With its pagan traditions, rituals, symbols and practices, Christmas serves as a graphic reminder of the true orientation of the United States of America.

But it matters not the whole countryside is pagan.

It matters not the whole world lies in evil.

“And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.”
–1John 5:19

God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, is in total control.

Always has been; always will be.

—/—

Pagans smile.

Pagans wish others “Merry Christmas.”

Pagans hope for the best for their children and friends.

Pagans are just not saved.

For Christmas 2016, it is the fondest Christmas wish that well-meaning pagans throughout this pagan land might be saved and experience the rich and tender mercies of the LORD and His Son, Jesus Christ.

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Time is Running Out: Today is the Day of Salvation

End Time Rising: Running out of Time

Make Your Calling and Election Sure: End Times Survival

REMINDER: Christmas is a time of year when the gospel receives less lip service than any other. Share the real gospel of Jesus Christ all times, but especially during the time supposedly set aside for the celebration of the Savior of the world.

THE GOSPEL

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”

Christmas is a Pagan Holiday, Not the Birthday of Jesus Christ

“A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.”
–Ecclesiastes 7:1

Should Christians even celebrate the day of Jesus Christ’s birth?

Not according to the Bible.

MORE: BIRTHDAYS: A Heathen Practice, Not a Christian One

Is Christmas purely a pagan holiday? –Christmas IS a purely pagan holiday. NOTHING in the Bible corresponds with Christmas and its many rituals, practices and traditions. Christmas is nothing more than warmed-over heathenism, with a heaping helping of covetousness thrown in for good measure.

Agreed: church folk DO celebrate Christ’s birth.

However, the Bible does not celebrate birth days: that is a pagan tradition. But since when did the church folk let God’s Word stand in the way of having a little holiday fun?

“Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.”
–Jeremiah 20:14

MORE: Birthdays: A Day of Celebration for Those Born Once

Though we don’t know the exact date of Jesus’ birth, this does not stop church folk from celebrating it with pagan trappings, decorations, traditions and worship–all the while giving lip service to Jesus Christ for a few minutes each season.

Somehow, that is supposed to make it alright.

DOES the reader believe he is celebrating Christianity by celebrating Christmas?

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Christians and Christmas

Even though Christmas is a pagan holiday, many pagans exhibit–if only for a day or two–positive gestures toward other humans.

This is not to be condemned, though these cyclical, humane gestures will not matter when judgment day arrives.

Becoming a Christian Ruined My Love of Christmas – A touching holiday tale, told by a pretend Christian for the benefit of other counterfeits and published by the aptly-named Christianity Today.

Because the churches are satanic centers of apostasy, Christianity Today is a wonderful name for a publication which services the worldly, lost pew-sitters who inhabit the churches.

HOWEVER, becoming a Christian–a true believer, as opposed to the pretenders who fill the pews of the churches–will ruin one’s love of the pagan Season of Greed we call Christmas.

Anytime men do other men a good turn–for whatever reason–it is a cause for good cheer.

However, Christmas is generally more of a time of sober-mindedness than good cheer for the true Christian.

DOES the reader still confuse Christmas with the birth of Jesus Christ?

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Eliminating Public Displays of Christmas

Equating the pagan traditions and covetousness of the Season of Greed with Christianity has been one of the apostates’ greatest achievements.

US Air Force base takes down nativity scene after someone complains that it violated the constitution – All of the church folk who complain that your constitutional rights are being violated by the government eradicating Christianity from the public view: stop it.

The US constitution was set up to do exactly the things that are being done today in its name. It doesn’t matter if you agree with what’s being done. The fact remains: it is being done and the US constitution is not in the least stopping it now, is it?

All of the websites with pictures of Thomas Jefferson and Bible quotes: stop it.

Jefferson was no Christian and no friend of Christianity. And if you believe Dominion theology proponents who claim that the USA was founded as a Christian nation–you’re just ignorant of history and depending on the enemy for your facts.

So, stop it.

Instead of digging in your heels and reveling in half-truths and ignorance: do a little research.

All of you who have relatives who “fought for this country.”?

Stop it.

Our relatives fought to preserve the “American way of life.” We’re living that life now. If you don’t agree with it, you should have thought of that years ago–before that way of life began to affect you in ways with which you now disagree.

The USA is going about the business of doing all of the things it was set up to do at its founding.

Stop complaining.

IS the reader a soldier FOR EITHER SIDE in the “War on Christmas”?

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

The Spirit of Christmas is the Spirit of Deception

“He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,”
—A Visit from St. Nicholas

Elf.

For centuries, the elf was identified as a demon/pagan god–though moderns have had this knowledge thoroughly concealed from them.

In Old Norse mythological texts, elves seem at least at times to be counted among the pagan gods; in medieval German texts they seem more consistently monstrous and harmful.

Who hasn’t been indoctrinated into the modern fables of Christmas? The story of “Santa Claus” supposedly is one that began with “Saint Nicholas.”

Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, pawnbrokers and students in various cities and countries around Europe. He was also a patron of the Varangian Guard of the Byzantine emperors, who protected his relics in Bari.

Honoring or protecting Nicholas’ “relics” is the equivalent of believing in magic (demonic power).

It’s a touch of witchcraft imported into the churches by the synagogue of Satan and mystery of iniquity.

This time of year, one hears quite a lot of nonsense about the “spirit of Christmas.” We hear those who ask “Where’s your Christmas spirit?”

Apparently, this spirit likes egg nog, pine trees, mistletoe, Yule logs, candles, buying, giving and receiving gifts and ceremonies.

There most certainly IS a spirit of Christmas: it is a spirit of deception.

Americans revere (worship, hold sacred) many things which are dark and dreary, but which have been taught are light and cheery and innocent.

Some of those dark and dreary things they hold dear pertain to the customs, practices and rituals of that Season of Greed we call Christmas.

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.”
–Matthew 24:4

DOES the reader dismiss any contrary talk about Christmas as “wet blanket” talk?

DOES the reader ever thought about many of the holiday practices which the world calls “beloved“?

HAS the reader ever wondered why so many Christmas “traditions” are pagan in nature?

HAS the reader ever wondered why so many of these “traditions” are not found in the Bible?

DOES the reader just not care, preferring to let nothing stand in the way of a good Christmas celebration?

THERE is still time to change direction (repent) and place one’s trust in Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

The Curse of Black Friday

“…covetousness, which is idolatry”
–Colossians 3:5

The Bible says that covetousness (greed, wanting things) is idolatry.

The USA is a land filled with idols–particularly around Christmas time.

OR as it’s known: The Season of Greed.

Millions of Early-Bird Shoppers turn out on Thanksgiving – A cultural shift has taken place over the last 10-12 years: what little actual emphasis was on “giving thanks” on Thanksgiving Day has been eclipsed by the spirit of covetousness.

Not that Thanksgiving was ever devoted to giving thanks all day.

Thanksgiving was about giving thanks for maybe a minute or two–during the grace at dinner and a few TV prayers.

Otherwise, the focus of the holiday had morphed into food and drink, football games, family and travel.

Thanksgiving was an incidental happening. But at least lip service was paid to the concept.

Sadly, even that has ceased in most households across the World’s Most Christian Nation™.

MORE: THANKSGIVING: How the Media Celebrates the Holiday

The Curse of Black Friday has, hour-by-hour, slowly edged into Thanksgiving until the actual event consists of a few hours of traditional Thanksgiving (a big meal with some family and/or friends) with Black Thursday-Friday consuming many hours of planning, researching and list-making.

Now, very clearly, the emphasis is on DEALS! and saving a few bucks on the latest electronic gadget.

Black Friday is aptly named.

BLACK FRIDAY IN HISTORY

BLACK FRIDAY: A hole for your soul.

BLACK FRIDAY – That vile, American celebration (though it is no longer strictly an American celebration only) of covetousness and greed known as Black Friday is not unique as a name.

The name Black Friday has been used for days other than the day after Thanksgiving.

A few of those other days known as Black Friday are:

Black Friday (1869), the Fisk-Gould Scandal, a financial crisis in the United States

Black Friday (1881), the Eyemouth disaster in which 189 fishermen died
Black Friday (1910), a particularly violent women’s suffrage event in England
Black Friday (1939), a day of devastating bushfires in Victoria, Australia, which killed 71 people
Black Friday (1945), an Allied air attack against German ships in Norway
Hollywood Black Friday (1945), a riot at the Warner Bros. studios
Black Friday (1978), a massacre of protesters in Iran
Black Friday (1987), a tornado in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Black Friday (1993), a series of bomb explosions in Mumbai, India
Black Friday (Maldives), a 2004 crackdown by government forces on a peaceful protest

And that’s not all: A complete list of Black Fridays.

So, at least maybe the shopping spectacle–increasingly marked by violence and rude behavior over trinkets, trifles and trash–is aptly named.

Black Friday is actually a recognized holiday in 17 states

(The above headline was from 2013. Black Friday is now recognized in 24 states.)

Was there EVER a holiday which symbolized the end times better than Black Friday?

In case anyone thinks that the Black Friday madness “just happened”:

Start with a limited number of “deals”
Add constant hype supplied by national and local media
Stir in Americans hungry to save money: some because they are down on their luck; others, because money is very important to them.
Top it off with family members demanding the items contained in the aforementioned “deals”

Black Friday has been planned from the beginning.

FDR Moved Thanksgiving To Give People More Time To Shop

It’s a recipe for the brawls, fights and other displays of extreme greed featured on Black Friday–the most appropriately-named day of the year in the World’s Most Christian Nation™.

Yes, there are many who fancy this a “Christian nation.”

Somehow, the Black Friday violence over sweaters marked down 40 percent is a more honest reflection of who Americans really are.

But most won’t admit even that, preferring to keep alive the lie that they really are Christians.

Jesus stated it quite clearly in Luke 14:33.

“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.”

“Forsake all that he hath?”

After standing in line for an hour, many Americans won’t even forsake that Chinese-produced sweatshop sweater.

Truly, America is living under the Curse of Black Friday.

HAS the reader been caught up in the spirit of Black Friday?

Just a little bit?

DOES the reader get asked if he’s in the “Christmas spirit“?

THAT is one spirit not mentioned in the Bible.
