they hate those who  stand and rebuke in the gate...but,...here goes...  If 'jesus' is the 'reason' for your 'season', you are serving the false jesus, the idol, which catholicism hatched out.    ...if not...quote me one verse what  God was ever in such. or the apostles, or Jesus, the true Jesus.  where did either one command or recommend this wickedness.   why did God say, if you respect vanities, (holidays)... you forsake your own mercy...Jonah.   You cannot hold to god with one hand, and satan with the other.  you either cling to one and hate the other, or drop one of them.  God does not share with satan, believe it or not.  You are true to God, or living in spiritual fornication.

I know people do not like to hear much truth, as it hits against their pretend religion. But hiding from truth will only seal your doom. god showed me that when you have your xmess parties, exchange your gifts, play your games, you are, spiritually, doing exactly the same thing, that old Israel did, when they stripped naked and danced around their golden calf. It is idol worship and nothing can change this. I know, people who get into these deep truths, are always hated by 'church' folks, in their pretend religious stuff. "don't rock the boat" is their theme.

for you who think the above is not right, how about this...

<NOBR>Jer 10:1</NOBR> Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:

<NOBR>Jer 10:2</NOBR> Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.

Jer 10:3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax.

Jer 10:4< They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

Jer 10:5< They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.

Now see that God told his people NOT to learn the way of the heathen [idol worshippers]. He said the customs of the people are vain. They go cut a tree out of the forest with an ax. Then they deck it with fancy stuff and fasten it with nails that it move not. They are idols which have no life in them. But notice, he shows that these trees are IDOLS.

Now where does this fit in out day? Anyone can plainly see it fits the family-affair of decorating an X-mess tree. This then is plainly the way of the heathen, which God commanded you NOT to copy after.

God commanded you in Deut 12 not to try and worship him the way the heathen worship their gods. This decorating green trees is plainly idol worship, the way of the heathen.

You see, green trees are always associated with idol worship. so when you go do that thing, it is idol worship. clearly going against God's commandment, NOT TO LEARN THE WAY OF THE HEATHENS. So, if it is the way of heathens, then you fit right there with them, and it is the same thing as old Israel, stripping themselves naked, (of God's covering), and dancing around their idol, the golden calf.

and you think God is going to excuse it today...and overlook this gross idol sin... not for one minute. It is more worse for you, who claim you have Jesus living in you. where is your victory over sin.

'which' 'jesus' has the birthday party, on Dec 25? the true Jesus or the 'other jesus' which Paul said they would bring up? You best find this answer, IF you desire eternal life....and stop your idol worship.'which' 'jesus' has the birthday party, on Dec 25? the true Jesus or the 'other jesus' which Paul said they would bring up?
