Think Twice Before Saying ‘Merry Christmas’

“The joyful news of the birth of Christ is this restoration of man to his original calling with the assurance of victory.”

—Rousas J. Rushdoony, The Institutes of Biblical Law (1973)

 

“He comes to make His blessings flow / far as the curse is found.”

—Isaac Watts, “Joy to the World” (1719) 

 

The First Christmas

Jesus of Nazareth was born about 2,000 years ago in Bethlehem, a small Judean village six miles south of Jerusalem.  At the time, Caesar Augustus was the emperor of the Roman world.  The king of Judea itself was Herod the Great, a master politician … cruel, insolent, and murderous.  Jerusalem, rich and cosmopolitan, was the pearl of Palestine.

The Jewish temple, which Herod had adorned, was magnificent beyond words, but its priestly rulers were apostate and worldly.  The Pharisees, who were the primary teachers of God’s word, were immersed in self-righteousness and legalism.  They strained at moral gnats and swallowed theological camels.  The faithful were few and mostly poor.  The age they lived in, both in Judea and beyond, was marked by disillusionment, despair and unbelief with spiritual leanings towards the mystical and irrational.  In many ways, Jerusalem at the time looked a lot like any big city in America today.

When Jesus was born, his mother and adoptive father were some 65 miles from their home in Nazareth, a backwater town in northern Galilee.  A Roman census had compelled Joseph to return to his family’s hometown to enroll himself for future taxation.  Mary, his espoused wife, went with him.  She was in her ninth month and “great with child.”  Apparently, the almost newlyweds didn’t want to be separated at this crucial time, and it is likely that Mary’s support network in Nazareth had unraveled.  Her friends and family would have judged her unchaste and either crazy or the queen of lies:  “Son of God, indeed!”

Crowds thronged the narrow streets of Bethlehem.  By the time Joseph and Mary reached the village, all the normal accommodations were taken … and there would have been few to begin with.  Finally, someone offered them a place in a stable.  Tradition says it was a cave.  The cramped area no doubt smelled of urine and dung.  The city streets were anything but silent.  The star that hung above the city went unnoticed.

Joseph most likely played midwife.  There was blood and screaming and placenta.  The baby cried.  There was no cradle.  Joseph cleaned out a manger, a feeding trough, to receive the baby.  Mary or Joseph wrapped the baby tightly in strips of linen cloth, “swaddling clothes,” and placed the newborn in the trough.  Mary tried to rest.

It would be a few hours later, perhaps, that a bunch of strange, tough-looking men would poke their heads into the stable and ask about a baby.  Joseph, at first defensive, would yield in wonder as these shepherds told of an angelic visitation announcing the birth of the Lord Messiah.  The shepherds had come to see the child.  Joseph let them pass.  The shepherds stared for a bit at what seemed a perfectly ordinary baby, and then they plunged back into the cold streets and told anyone they could about the angels and the baby.

So far, that’s the first Christmas.  The Magi or wise men (not kings) were still in the East (Persia, probably) planning their pilgrimage.  It would take them several months to reach Herod’s court in Jerusalem.  By then, Joseph had moved his family to a small house in Bethlehem and had found some type of daily work.  When the wise men arrived, slaughter came close on their heels, and the holy family fled into Egypt for sanctuary.  The gifts of the Magi funded their life in exile.

The Flight From History

Over the last hundred years the Church and the world have slowly but surely shoved the birth of Christ into a fairy tale world of “Bible stories, Bible people, Bible times.”  There is an incipient Gnosticism at work here and a strong contempt for real history.  The actual history of Christ’s birth has been ignored, adorned, and rewritten to give the whole thing a Romantic, otherworldly feel.  The “super-holiness” of sentimental awe has pushed aside the actual holiness of the holy God incarnate in the midst of His people.  What remains is a separation of the Gospel from historical reality, a separation of the religious and the real.

This disdain for history is nothing new.  It’s implicit or explicit in every form of unbelief known to man.  To see this more clearly, simply consider the consistent extremes of materialism and pantheism. Both streams of consciousness are alive and well, “worldviews” with us today.

The materialist reduces everything to atoms.  Reality is matter in motion.  Just that.  Nothing more.  Love, joy, hope … these are all just chemical reactions within other chemical reactions.  For folks who think consistently this way, there can be no such thing as history, let alone a meaning for history.  Energy particles explode in and out of chaos and eventually collapse in upon themselves again.  Or maybe they spread out beyond their own gravitational pull as the universe dies a cold death.  Who knows? And why should anyone care?  And what is “caring,” after all, but another meaningless chemical reaction?  Why should anyone care about anything?

The pantheist sees all historical and material things or “particulars” as illusions. To the pantheists, everything you see and touch in everyday life is simply a manifestation of an impersonal reality.  All is One.  John Lennon lived in this world and you probably remember the song … “Imagine there’s no heaven, it’s easy if you try.” So, to John Lennon and the folks that profess such things … “all that is” … is an equal expression of that One.  Master and slave, warmonger and peace child, rapist and victim, murderer and the murdered … not one of these distinctions are even real.  In this way of seeing the world, history doesn’t exist.  Neither does crime. There is only the One.  Meaning itself, as far as that goes, is a meaningless concept. Why? Because it suggests that there is something beyond the static reality of One.

The Word Was Made Flesh

Over against this nonsense, the biblical doctrine of the Incarnation establishes the reality of history and reveals its purpose and goal.

First, the doctrine of the Incarnation presupposes the reality of Creator and creation.  God and His creation are real.  The Triune God exists eternally and necessarily as not only absolute personality but as the personal Source and Origin of all created reality, of all matter, space, and time.  God’s eternal decree and providence structure, determine, and define creation and its temporal flow.  History is what God decrees and is brought about by His providence.  It is … “His story.”

Second, the doctrine of the Incarnation highlights the central conflict within all history.  Humans are fallen.  We are in ethical rebellion against our Creator.  We have eternal punishment coming.  We are incapable of saving ourselves.  But God in His infinite mercy and grace has entered our history … has joined Himself to His creation … to save us from our sins through a death of penal substitution.  Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners.

Third, the doctrine of the Incarnation establishes the meaning and goal of history.  The eternal Word of God, the Second Person of the Trinity, entered creation, became flesh, to undo the work of the Fall, to restore men to fellowship with God, and to establish His Kingdom in history and beyond history.  The Son of God came to save the world and to accomplish the restitution of all things to the glory of God.

Because Jesus Christ is eternal deity and because He has come in terms of God’s sovereign decree, He will accomplish His mission.  Jesus has redeemed the earth, and all history since the Resurrection is the outworking and application of that redemption.  History will see the full manifestation of His redeeming work.  He will reign until all enemies have been put under His feet.  But not just that … He will spread the blessings of His reign to the ends of the earth.

This is the message and reality of Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

      The Spiritual, which exists as The Singularity of Purpose, is NOT The Material. Without reverting to The Spiritual whilst being Alive on Earth means that the individual is materialised.

      Whenever a Human Thinks, he is being malevolent/Multi-Personna. By having Humans becoming singularly-personna, The Divine is offering to Share His Singularity/Absoluteness with those Humans are are able to become Benevolently Spiritual whilst being Material. Asuch, Truth is NOT about Humanity but about Divinity. Those “ownable”/”seduce-able” by Fame, Fortune & Immortality, be conscious and be aware.

      Malevolence exists because Benevolence exists, Malevolence being The State when Benevolence is “Absent” much like Darkness is The State when Light is Absent. The fact that Malevolence ALWAYS need to masquerade as Benevolence says it all – but not when, somehow but don’t know how, there is Truth within UnTruth. Then, The Vast Majority are unable to be benevolent when confronted to make The Absolute Choice other than being seduce-able because being Famous, Fortunate & Immortalised, aka being Materialised, is the Be-All, End-All.

      Be conscious and be aware, therefore, that when self is being Materialised/”of-Energy-Transformation” whilst posturing Spirituality/”of-Energy-Creativity”. Expecially when there is no such thing as Materialism within Spirituality. This is because “A Drop of Black” is able to tarnish “An Ocean of White”.

      The Material has only one duty and that is to offer Love in The Material Form. When “gifting” becomes a matter of convenience-expediency, however, there will not be enough Landfills to accommodate The Waste & Want other than offering “jobs” to satisfy The Employment of Waste & Want.

      NOT, however, when The Energy Creator exists. Afterall, when The Sun is near-infinite in the free gifting of Energy, how could there be Greed-Fear/Fear-Greed? How could there be Cruelty-Cunning when there is NO SUCH thing as “Death” other than “Death” being The Reversion to The Spiritual. Like it or not, for many, The Reversion to Spirituality is a one-way street, Evolution being when Truth is expressed as Bliss by those Humans who are able to be Spiritual whilst being Material.

      Truth/Reality is Effortless because The Divine exists as The Energy Creator before The Advent of The Material Cosmos. This is because [ONLY] The Energy Creator will have the means to Share His Energy Creativity. If True [and It Is The Truth], when Faith is merely of Posturing/”Politics”/Trickery, said Faith will turn “Blind” and become that of Religion & Religiosity, aka Blind Faith.

      When The Materialised try to Yakity-Yak about The Spiritual, that is when Becoming-of-Truth becomes The-Attempt-at-Owning-Truth. An impossibility but The Blind-Blinded try via Ownership-Issues like “War”, “Politics”, “Fianancial-Exchanging” and other Tricks of The Trade of Malevolence.

      Jesus Christ did NOT incarnate to burden Humanity with “Christianity”, Jesus Christ incarnated to potentiate/”swtich-on” Forgiveness/”Thoughtlessness” for countering “The Anti-Christ”, who is, namely “Thought”, there being 2 realms to Thinking. That of The-Past/”Gross-Femininity” and The-Future/”Gross-Masculinity”.

      NO Human was born with Thought, The Thoughtless Human being “Innocent” but is yet able to Breathe, Consume & Eliminate without having to Read The Manual on Existence. More so when some Animals need to “Begin Running for their Lives” soon after “Birth”.

      OTOH, once Thought had been institutionalised within the individual, said [Human] an individual is then Enslaved/”Mesmerised” without knowing, let alone realising, so. To counter this constraint, EVERY Living Organism on Earth not only does not own his Body but is actually “loaned” his Body for the duration of the individual’s Life on Earth. This is because The Divine is “Refracted” within said Body, with Humans having said “Refraction” being fully so.

      Then, The Problem is to be able to “connect” with The Reality within. That of synchronising the individual’s Attention with The Attention of The Divine, every individual’s Attention being “resident” within The Liver.

      Xmas is a Pagan holiday and has NOTHING to do with JESUS
      JESUS was born in Sept during The Feast of Tabernacles , hence the shepherds tending their flocks that saw the star were in their tents and would not be in the winter tending their flocks or would there be grass to eat.

      As to the Xmas tree the Bible says this about trees in Jeremiah 10 Hear the word that the Lord speaks to you, O house of Israel. Thus says the Lord: “Learn not the way of the nations, nor be dismayed at the signs of the heavens because the nations are dismayed at them, for the customs of the peoples are vanity. A tree from the forest is cut down and worked with an axe by the hands of a craftsman. They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so that it cannot move. Their idols are like scarecrows in a cucumber field, and they cannot speak; they have to be carried, for they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil, neither is it in them to do good.” …
      SO the tree is out too.

      Dec 25 is The last day of Saternalia and was brought into effect by Roman emperor Justinian, ‘Dies Natali Invictus,’ ‘the birthday of the unconquered SUN.

      OH AND A HUMBLE LORD DOES NOT CELEBRATE HIS OWN BIRTHDAY…BTW SO WOULD JESUS?

      • Jango

        Yep, you got it. The early church never celebrated Christmas. And the wise men brought gifts TO JESUS, not to each other. Too many Christians have been overcome by the world…..

    • dakota

      Jesus was not born the normal way through the birth canal. So no blood. No mess, as u put it.

      God brought forth Jesus from Mary’s womb (supernaturally). Only God, the angels and Mary were present at the actual birth. Mary was born without ORIGINAL SIN.

      St. Joseph was in another section of the cave, per God’s design. Why? Only God knows.

      All women were supposed to give birth this way (also with no pain). However the sin of Adam and Eve changed all that for the rest of womankind (before and after Mary)

      • Anonymous

        Wth Dakota you smokin crack ? Of course she did – where you get that? She birthed him naturally! lol !

      • TRUTHY1

        You still believe the “Cave” story eh… No Grotto for the Messiah ! A manger is not underground either ! Emmanuel was born naturally and nuns later checked Mary for proof that she was still a virgin ! ( The Creator healed Adam after forming Eve so it isn’t a stretch to heal Mary also.) Even the name, “Christmas” is pagan! “Christi” meant “Christ”, while “Mas” meant Mass. Since all pagan Masses are commemorating “death”, the name, “Christmas” literally means the “death of Christ”. A deeper meaning lies in the mention of “Christ” without specifying Jesus. Thus, Antichrist is in view here; the pagans celebrate “Christmas” as a celebration of their coming Antichrist, who will deal a death blow to the Jesus Christ of Christianity. http://adventofdeception.com/origin-christmas-connection-occult/ ” The Catholic Church took the excitement which surrounded the Roman Saturnalia, with its excesses, delights, debauchery, and wantonness, and called them the celebration of the birth of the Son of YEHOVAH God, Yeshua. Most people today still think of December 25 as the birth day of Yeshua, even though this is definitely not the case. ” http://www.hope-of-israel.org/cmas1.htm ” Yehowshuwa, the True Hebrew Name of the Messiah, the Son of the Almighty God.” http://hubpages.com/religion-philosophy/Yehowshuwa

    • Spikey Norman

      Many fools actually believe Jesus was a Christian.
      There was no such thing as Christianity in his day.

      There was no such thing as Islam in the days of Mohamed either.

      Or Buddha, or any number of other truly divine incarnations sent down to Earth in physical form to teach us wisdom and the truth.
      Religions have all been corrupted by evil.
      Every single one.

      The bastard paedophile satanist Pope is no better or worse than the rapists and head choppers killing and burning for the love of Allah.

      But there most assuredly is a GOD in heaven, and very shortly he is going to judge every single one of us. Jew, Muslim, Christian, and all the rest, without a single exception.

      • TRUTHY1

        The inspired Word is the only truth, however, all of the Scriptures have been incorrectly translated,edited and added to. All religions are doctrines of man meant to deceive and control. http://www.thepropheticyears.com/comments/Apostasy%20in%20the%20Church.HTM It takes a great deal of research to find the truth. http://askelm.com/doctrine/d980927.htm We wrestle against wickedness in high places. Acts 20:29
        For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
        Proverbs 25:2King James Version (KJV)

        2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.

      123’s of true Christianity (simply because you “confess” it does not mean you actually are, the devil has deceived many of his own children to believe they are Christians 2Tim 3:5)

      #1 “ONE” not triune: No the son & father are the same person not like two different persons working together even as “one flesh” ….The “oneness” between Christ and the father is not comparable to a man & his wife, for only a fool would say “When you have seen me you have seen my wife, how sayest thou then, Shew us your wife?” Notice they asked to see THE FATHER and the response was Jn 14:9 ..“HAVE I BEEN SO LONG time with you, and yet hast THOU NOT KNOW ME, Philip…..Now image some fool trying to claim that statement if you asked to see his wife!?!!? You want to see the FATHER but have I been with you but you don’t know me!?!?! https://www.scribd.com/doc/305367608/The-Trinity-Heresy

      “WHO” it was (what person) that came “IN THE FLESH”, IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE “ANT-CHRIST”! Even Islam claims Jesus was the Jewish messiah/Christ who was to come in the flesh) they all deny “WHO” it was (what person) that came (to be the Christ) in the flesh!?!…….To deny the father is to deny the son because they are one and the same person that came in the flesh! https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/part-6-anti-christ-where-everywhere-allen-daves?trk=mp-reader-card

      THE ANTI CHRIST….WHERE? WHERE?….EVERYWHERE!!! …..IT”S YOU O TRINITARIAN!

      The whole point to Gal 3:20.a mediator is NOT A MEDIATOR OF ONE, (HEIS) but GOD IS ONE. (HEIS) again, point blank, identifies the number of persons of God! The “but” points out the contrast between multiple persons in a mediation party v the “one” of God. God is not like a mediation party with multiple different persons. …..”the express image of his person” ( the person of God; singular not plural).Any attempt to lay claim otherwise is willful ignorance and delusional nonsense https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/part-1-echadechadmy-godgod-echad-allen-daves?trk=mp-reader-card

      NOTE: don’t be that one in prov 26:12 over my use of the word “fool” here prov 18:13 (https://www.scribd.com/presentation/322007258/Fools ) “But but, the gospel of John…the Gospel of John …look look…” which is quite ironic since the gospel of John does not leave ANY room for multiple different persons of Jesus and father. However the gospel of John does leave a few verses that facilitate God’s promise in 2 Thess 2:11/ Isaiah 66:4 (take note of “HAND” in verse 2,14..You just can’t make this stuff up…God is surely laughing at these fools; Ps 2:1&4)

      ……Mark 12:28…Which is the first commandment of all? 29. …Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: 30. And ………..this is the first commandment….. 31. And the second is…..
      JESUS IS GOD AND IS THE FULLFILMENT OF ALL THE LAW AND PROPHETS SO IF YOU CAN’T GET THIS “FIRST OF ALL COMMANDMENTS” RIGHT, ALL THE REST OF YOUR “FAITH” AND PREACHING ON SIN IS MOOT

      TRINITARIANS CONFESS JESUS /THEY ARE NOT POLYTHEIST BUT ARE MONOTHEIST LIKE A LIAR & THIEF WHO “CONFESS” THEY DO NOT LIE OR STEAL The simple fact is that just because you confess or deny that you are in an adulterous relationship and denounce all forms of adultery has nothing to do with whether or not it is in fact adulterous! .. …A rose by any other name is still just a rose AND calling it a water lily does not change the definition of what a water Lilly or a rose is either!…No, Trinitarians confess & preach literally …”ANOTHER JESUS” 2 Cor 11:4

      https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/part-2-pgs-91-101-chapter-eight-lets-talk-us-allen-daves?trk=mp-reader-card

      - Like a thief in your house caught stealing your things insisting he was not there stealing “I CONFESS I am NOT stealing”. You just do not “properly understand” what he is doing/saying. Further, since you never had a “proper understanding” of what he is doing/saying you have no business accusing him since you do not even know what you are talking about in the first place. It is with and in your own ignorance that you base your “false accusations” & “ad homonym attacks” against him…… Ridiculous of course it is ……2Thess 2:11; Titus 1:16; 2Tim 3:5;

      - A Favorite tool for pathological liars is to use incongruent definitions or create oxymorons out of synonyms such as “a person” and “a being” so as to claim that your god is THREE DIFFERENT PERSONS but ONLY ONE BEING: Which is (1) no different then trying to claim that “THREE DIFFERENT CARS” is “THE ONE VEHICLE” (2) blatant demonstration of the dishonesty & sorcery these children of hell will employ with “a strait face” (which is in part what it means to be a pathological liar)
      ……but, ah i remember how this game is played… “God is three in one” (or 1in 3 or 3in one et al) should have given you a hint, harking back to Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. God uses head and right arm to explain the distinctions between father and son.. However, the Trinitarian heretics say to the effect: “NO, that is just a figure of speech, or that is not what God really means. What God is really saying is that God is three different persons”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!

      #2 SECOND COMING Thou Fool! “I come quickly” so “Hold fast
      till i come”… NOT …“in another 2000 yrs I might be coming soon any time now, so hold fast”!?! …those that deny the second coming of Christ in the war of AD70 are practicing a damnable heresy in denying the lord that bought them ( 2Peter 2:1-2 ;2Tim 4:8/ you cant love an appearing you deny& the context is the 2nd coming not the first)… Mat 7:23..”I NEVER KNEW YOU” …..Mat 10:33. But whosoever shall deny me before men……..sound familiar?…. If I said I am coming to your house in this generation when these things happen but no one knows the day or hour what fool would think I might be coming in 2000 years latter!?!? ..2 Tim 4: 4. And
      they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be TURNED UNTO FABLES.
      2Thess 2: 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

      (2) “MANY CALLED”= ONLY and ALL SAINTS (those who come to Christ) are written in the book of life … Philippians 4:3… ……Rev 21:27; (Only saints are Called and elect; Rom 1:6-7 et al) This is THE CHRUCH and ONLY these can have their names blotted out of the book of life ….….Heb 12:23 to the general assembly and CHURCH of the firstborn … WHICH ………are WRITTEN in heaven,

      (3) THE FEW CHOSEN: Those saints who were alive in group #2 who are now physically dead. They died “faithful” these are the FEW that were chosen faithful…….Rev 3:5. ……; and I
      will not BLOT OUT HIS NAME OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, (Ps 69:28) …. These are the FEW that are CHOSEN and now that they have died and are saved then “once saved THEY CAN NEVER BE LOST”

      Never think twice about anything you say, it’s the mark of a free man. Still the war on Christmas and Christ goes on. This is not coming from the Jewish, I checked. It’s not coming from the Hindus or the Buddhists either. So, help me search on until the answer becomes plain.

      Yes thankfully there are a few people up there who know the facts and are not afraid of them!

      Christmas is nothing to do with the Messiah in the biblical narrative; but everything to do with the Solar-Deity’s baby-saviour-figure being born, was celebrated long before the Messiah of the bible was even conceived, as an essential rite of the worship of Satan, the Solar Deity/Saturn! Which is a worldwide, very politically-correct RELIGION and so emotionally-exploitative, that its draw, its lure, its power over us as humans (as well as its level of evil) warrants the term Mystery, as in the Babylonian Mysteries, and Egyptian Mysteries. Now it is Rome purveying the whole lot of mysteries, via the ‘Universal’ church, – literally – the ‘Catholic’ Church. Called Mother of Harlots: Who is this? This Woman is a religion. All have drunk of the wine of her fornication, iniquities, sorceries have made the nations drunk with the rites of this God, (Gods if you like, but they are all part of ‘the one’, the ‘United One’s worship, or Achad,whcih can also mean in Hebrew besides ‘United One’, ‘The One and Only’ god’s worship – being established. This is no question, thru the nature, etymology, doctrine and practicies, that of one and no other: Satan’s religion.

      Who shows up or morphs into different beings, or in varying guises. Father, mother, saviour baby are most popular.
      Boy, Girl, brother, wife, sister, gay dude, partying (drunk) dude, Lesbian-looking dude, warrior queen, hunter, huntress, fat baby with arrows, boy-priest, old man, old woman, virgin (always a virgin involved), a sex goddess, (how can she do it?) etc etc.

      Many symbols represent this enignatic God. Stars, of all number of points. All depict aspects of the God. (personality traits, abilities, ‘angles’.) The Sun disk. Phallus. Circles are a big one; circles alone, a dot, a circle around a cross, dot inside a circle. Think of the symbol of ‘Target’ and Bull’s Eye. Think green evergreen WREATHS. Think seed. Think not only phallus, but also cervix, and womb containing the seed. Seed, zero, mean same thing anciently the word Zero is Seed. Seed of the woman: Zero-Ashta.

      Ashta to me is more mysterious but that is another long thing. to me it means Star, or East, Ast, Ist, Est, or Man, Ish, Ta(r), To (r?) Tur ? revolving, encircling, as in a planet going around the earth. Like the moon. Revolver, maker of revolutions. Hislop wrote a lot about these things. I have forgotten what he wrote but there’s more on this name. Mene, Mane, the Moon, and Tur, Tor, Taur, Going Around. Bull is another symbol. the Horned God is not for no reason. Bulls are fertile and strong, the horns are connected with the worship, and also the name Taur, means to revolve or go in circles (around) (Us). Taurus. The Bull. Taur, or Tor, circling. Ish = man in Hebrew. Taurus could be encircling man, or revolving man. It could mean Nimrod, who was the first to gather men in fortresses, and he was against Yah.

      But Bulls, Horns, Cows, Serpents, Bird, Fish, Triangle, Cube, Circle, Cross, Stars (not only the Pentagram and Hexagram but all of them) Solar disk, moon crescent, the ankh, (think George Michael’s earring in that picture), obelisks, trees, I am tired and cannot think of them all right at the moment, but have in the past listed more here on this site.

      Someone here actually taught me on one comment about the cube. Saturnian cube, the Kaaba, Mecca for instance. It is the same God. Who is ‘God’ that we all say casually we love? Saturn, Allah, Sol Invictus, the Serpent God, Kukulcan, Quetzalcoatl, Inti, Baal, Bel, Chaos, or Whom? Just who is it that you mean? We need to define our term ‘God’.

      If you only stick to the term God, you can be invoking the Solar Deity, Satan. Why? God is a name – a proper name – Godh pronounced the same, also Gad, pronounced ‘G – O – D’. It is a solar Teutonic, (some say it is an older name) deity, some spell name as Gud, or Gudh, but it is not the Being called Creator-Father in the Bible, Who is against this worship of the Solar/Saturn Deity of the nations. And to us, it is a title. Like Boss. Deity. Which One Do You Mean?

      To the One in the Bible, this is proof that you do not care about Him or His truths. His Son was not sent to earth to be born as a baby in the Winter Solstice time; that would just confuse the people. Yet, the enemy of mankind has made it into that, to confuse us. And we are now confused as hell. But we don’t need to stay confused, it is simple, really when you read the history and the Bible. They corroborate one another, … unless someone is lying, or we don’t have all the information, they always agree.

      Christmas is not Biblical. We are told to not do that tree worship sun god/goddess/false saviour/antichrist worship (lunar/astral) religion. But we still are, at least most are. Why?

      It’s a very good time to stop. Just don’t do it any more. Free yourselves from this lying spirit, the destructive God of this world is evil and if he got Eve to believe him and want to do it with him, and she was taught by Yah Himself His ways and plans and truths and beautiful things He had in mind, – and SHE STILL DID IT, think what the entity called the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil can do with you! He already got all the world to do this worship of him.

      But we have what Eve hadn’t: history of tragedy beyond belief and scope of comprehension: All stemming from Satan as our chosen God, and that should be proof in a nutshell to stay away from this celebration of Satan and his baby saviour-figure like you would the plague.

      Please get the info. Say no to fuzzies which will cause your deaths in the end. It is talking about the bad shepherds of the flock who cause their flocks deaths, it speaking about their blood. Sheep’s blood. That is you, I am assuming, unless you are goats, right? Are you sheep? Yu good people? I think so, most of you.

      Or maybe all of you, some only pretenind to be ornery. (lol).

      But it is talking about your blood, your deaths, because of your religion, and that it is most of you who participate in the forbidden religion of Baal/Saturn/Moloch/Bel/Chaos. This is Satanic Religion which I am trying to show you is YOUR CHOSEN GOD’S (FORBIDDEN IN THE BIBLE) RELIGION.

      Alright, Goodnight… Just start reading in Matthew, please, tonight. May IAUE (Yah, Yahu, Iahuwah, Yahuah) help us all and bless and protect us and Mr. Trump and family in these last days.

      We are the New Atlantis, we are in the 4th Reich, and sorcery of Satanism is the means by which your souls are procurred for your Enemy’s satisfaction. You don’t want that, do you?

      Then, please give this up – and you will – if you read enough factual material and read your Bibles and get a Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance, and use it, and pray to your Father IAUE to help you in this. He will honour every attempt you sincerely make to know the truth, to weed lies out of your lives, and He and His soon-to-reign-on-a-new-earth King, Yahushua His only begotten son, our real Messiah, LOVE YOU.

      So just take some time every weekend, or every day and learn the truth which has been hidden from us all.
      And bless you all for trying.
