CHRIST-MAX: PAGAN WORSHIP?
So many persons are hiding under the guise that they are celebrating Jesus and if possible are ready to fight in protection of December 25. But I want to ask you who say you are celebrating Jesus; the things you do on the so called Christ-day, do they actually give Jesus the glory? Do the activities that come with Christmax buttress the very purpose for which Christ came. If indeed 25th December is designated for Christ worship, then it must be the holiest days in history but records has it that the reverse is the case. How can we say that we are remembering the birth of CHRIST but glorify and exalt the devil. You that is saying all manner of things (good or bad), would you beat your chest with holy pride that Jesus would say the things you had altered? How can you say you are defending Jesus and still say and do abominable things thereby giving pagans the right to ridicule the Most Holy God. Has celebrations much value than Holiness?
Remember that the way to heaven we all are desirous of has its way so narrow that cursings, abuses, disrespect and all evil will never pass through it. The celebration of Christ's birth, life, death and resurrection are not just to be remembered once in a year but in every day of the year and the greatest way you can honour Him is through total commitment and obedience to Him. Do you love Jesus? Then this is what Jesus says -
John 14:15 - If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John 14:21 - He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
John 14:23 - Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
John 14:24 - He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
So, check up if indeed you love Jesus. If you love Him,
1. you'd never use your words like one who has no conscience - Matthew 12:36 - But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
2. You'd never celebrate the 25th of December or any other day in satanic partyings - Romans 13:13 - Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
3. You'd never defile yourself with fornications and adulteries - Acts 15:29 - That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
4. You'd consecrate yourself more to Christ than to the flesh - Ezekiel 43:26 - Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
5. You'd do good and more good - Ephesians 6:7 - With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
6:8 - Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
Therefore, lets quit defending a day but start making use of each day to the glory of Christ. And for you who had made comments that God cannot be associated with, you must desist and let the blood of Jesus consecrate you to God.
God made heaven and the earth, light and darkness and in extension the days, months and years and must be honoured in them all.
For you who had chosen to remain obstinate and disobedient, priding yourself in your wickedness, note that,
Acts 17:30 - And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
17:31 - Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
Hebrews 10:31- It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
-You might be boasting about the fact that you had said and done evil things and because you had not been destroyed, you now think that there aren't any God but note;
Psalms 10:13 - Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
Psalms 14:1 - The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
-Never you think that God's silence over your wickedness is a sign of non-chalancy, weakness or incapabity;
Romans 2:4 - Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
The grace of God is open to you right now but will never be for eternity.
He that has an ear, let him hear.
