THE TRUTH ABOUT CHRISTMAS.

CHRISTMAS TODAY
Black Peter’s story is part of a Dutch "holiday" in the Netherlands and Flanders, where Nicholas was a bishop who lived in what we now call “Turkey.” After he died the Byzantium church declared him a saint. Children are taught to believe that they receive their presents from Saint Nicholas who is accompanied by “Black Peter,” his servant. Yet another racist act against so-called blacks.
SANTA=SATAN
CHRISTMAS, ALSO REFFERED TO AS CHRIST-MAS DAY, IS AN ANNUAL HOLIDAY CELEBRATED ON DECEMBER 25TH. IT DOES NOT COMMEMORATE THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST, WHICH IS IN THE SPRING TIME, ACCORDING TO LUKE 2:8, 41-42. THE DAY MARKS THE BEGINNING OF THE LARGER SEASON OF CHRIST-MASTIDE, WHICH LASTS 12 DAYS
December 25th is not Jesus’ Date of Birth. The date was chosen to
correspond with both Roman Festival of SATURNALIA—IN HON- OR OF SATURN AND THE WINTER SOLTICE (a.k.a. SOL INVICTUS— The Unconquored Sun)
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other
gods before me.
Psalms 96:5For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
Celebrating Christmas Is Honoring The Roman God Saturn, and the Devil!
Saturnalia is the best-known of several festivals in the Greco-Roman world characterized by role reversals and behavioral license.

PAGAN ROOTS OF CHRISTMAS
The Pagan roots of Christmas run deep: The Real Origin of Christmas
“The real origin of Christ- mas goes back to ancient Babylon. It is bound up in the organized apostasy with which Satan has gripped a deceived world these many centuries! In Egypt, it was always believed that the son of Iris (Egyptian name for
“Queen of Heaven”) was born December 25th. Semiramis also bore the title “Queen of Heaven” – and she was Nimrod’s mother. Paganism celebrated this famous birthday over most
of the known world for centuries before the birth of Christ.”
-The Plain Truth About Christmas by David J. Stewart | December 24th, 2005
Deuteronomy 33:18-19
“Nimrod started the great organized worldly apostasy from God that has dominated this world until now. Nimrod married his own mother, whose name was Semiramis. After Nimrod’s death, his so-called mother-wife, Semiramis, propagated the evil doctrine of the survival of Nimrod as a spirit being. She claimed a full grown evergreen tree sprang overnight from a dead tree stump, which symbolized the springing forth unto new life of the dead Nimrod. On each anniversary of his birth, she claimed, Nimrod would visit the evergreen tree and leave gifts upon it. December 25th, was the birthday of Nimrod. This is the real origin of the Christmas tree.”

by David J. Stewart | December 24th, 2005
JEREMIAH 10
[1] Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel: [2] 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. [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 axe.
[4] They deck it with silver and with gold; they fas-ten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
[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, nei-ther also is it in them to do good.
all your arguments lack substance.

Romans are there in Europe doing their thing, me I'm here in Africa doing my thing, I choose 25th December to celebrate Christ's birthday what does that has to do with Roman god who was celebrated 25th December in Rome, am i custodian of a roman god or did i mention any roman god in my worship to Christ?

Christianity EtcRe: Is It A Sin? by paxonel(m): 2:29am On Nov 06, 2022
bizzibodi:
*IS IT A SIN?*

A religious sister got pregnant and the religious leaders decided to discipline her since she was not married.

When the elders met and interviewed her, she told them that she has stayed and remained single for several years and no one is marrying her and she is approaching the age of menopause where she can't get pregnant even if married.

So after reading some religious medical journals on this issues, she decided and did artificial insemination since she too wants a child. She tendered both the medical journals and the medical documents that showed that she has done the artificial insemination from a reputable hospital.

The Sister is pregnant without committing fornication nor adultery with any man.

*NOW, COULD THIS BE A SIN?*

Kindly give your reasons for your answer and if possible back it with Scripture, so that we can learn. You may wish to send to other religious groups and see their position on the matter.
What's your position?
First of all, the meaning of the word fornication generally used today that it means having sex before marriage is a distortion from reality and isn't scriptural, i am yet to know where they got that one from.

Here is the only scripture that defined the word fornication in the bible.

1 Corinthians 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.

So, the bible states it clearly that fornication means one having his father's wife, not one having sex before marriage.
There is no other scripture that defines the word fornication as sex before marriage i don't know where they got it from.

I think that if you are not married and you are not having one sexual partner that will lead to marriage but you are jumping from one person to another it is still adultery

Coming to what the lady did, what she has done isn't wrong. She should just leave the church and face her life is it by force to be church member?

LikeAking:
Why must a Child of God pass through life stress like every oda person?
because it isn't God's fault that there was no solid foundation laid by his ancestors of the nearest generations who lived before him for the betterment of his life today, it is very common especially in Africa, that's why there are little privileges or opportunities in Africa.
Check it, most people that are enjoying today were either sponsored by their parents or someone else to study in school, or they had landed properties that they had inherited from their ancestors
Wia is d benefit in God?

I see none.
it's so because the benefit lies in the spirit since God is a spirit.
And since you cannot see God with your physical eyes therefore you cannot see his benefits with your physical eyes but only the eyes for faith.

For without faith it is impossible to please God

what you are going through has nothing to do with religion. You will understand this better when you eventually ported to atheism, your situation will still remain the same.

Ask yourself a simple question, why am i a Christian?

John 3:16...And whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Everlasting life should be your priority of being a Christian, not for a better life to live here on this earth.
Anyone telling you that being a Christian or belonging to some religious or non religious group or living in isolation will bring you fortune is a scammer of this 21St century.
Fortune or failure is for everyone irrespective of their religion, creed or disposition.
If you plant you reap success, if you don't plant you reap failure

Though, there are chances of getting help from the church or any church member who has the capacity to assist, but you will have to position yourself for that help by

1. Learning a skill(either by furthering your education or learning a trade or handwork)
2. Be committed to your work or whatever skill you have choosed
3. Be cheerful always inspite your situation : This may attract helpers you can't tell.
4. Be prayerful (not necessarily some long prayer but a simple wishes of fortune is enough)

Even if you end up becoming an atheist you will stil go through all these before you can be successful so whats the point?

Christianity EtcRe: UPDATE:Who Has Successfully Bin Delivered From Marine by paxonel(m): 1:29pm On Oct 25, 2022
Jen96:
Today God delivered me from marine by himself. This is how it happened. In the marine kingdom we are two categories of people (The initiates and the non initiates) The initiates are the top rank ppl who have accepted it, and we the non initiates have the spirit but have refused it. They force us all to come whether you take it or not. But we the non initiates are punished in every meeting. Atimes they put a snake on your head to crawl, till the end of meeting. I mean crawling your brain fast fast. Very painful.

So I was asking someone in true life first, how do they trace us? Cos they don't call u, they meet u. U can't hide.Theñ the Holy spirit told me how to get rid of what they use to trace me n d things that r not wth me I should use the mercy n blood of Jesus.

In true life , I did it, then I slept . They came to call me for the first meeting, they ere surprised they couldn't find me cos they trace all. God told me that I shouldn't worry, I am hidden with Christ in him ( I was afraid cos of d beatings n punishment u feel in real life if u avoid initiations)

D second meetin is 3 am. it's compulsory. I was already almost crying that thy will punish me for d both cos am not ready fo initiation ( d first n second). I was scared. Imagine dt snake punishment.i called on God n he answered. Told him how shocked dy couldn't trace me .

For d 3am meeting it's very compulsory. This one they will call you o. So I wanted to call any of my pastors to pray for me.the Holy spirit told me not to put on my phone cos as now I v cut all links with them. But dey produce phones in d water too so their tech is advanced so they can trace me . that calling almost everyone must go. I jst started crying to God n worship till 4 . They ere proving difficult I called on God n he answered. Then they ere angry and God delivered me from them himself.

God told me Satan has always tried taking everything he loves.

Not so sir you can be a Christian a nominal Christian but not being born again . A born again Christian after accepting Jesus Christ must reaccess his life to follow the tenets of christianity, fasting and praying ,payment of tithes and offerings, service to God and not to humanity, fear of God, obey his commandments, love your neighbour ,evangelize etc
ok,
God things to do.

But whether you do all these thongs or not you will still go to heaven so long you believe in Christ, yes or no?

If yes, what then is the point doing them in the first place?
Christianity EtcRe: Is There Any Difference Between A Christian And A Born Again Christian. by paxonel(m): 4:31pm On Oct 23, 2022
Starz825:
You were right at first then you missed it in the end...

Listen up....
Once you claim to be a Christian: you must have confessed the lord as your savior from sin and iniquities, must have been baptized in water and then must have received the holy spirit....and you also take the holy communion.
all these you just said aren't bad at all, but they are unnecessary doctrines.

Romans 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

Just say the word of confession of Jesus that he is the Christ, that's all.
You don't need all those doctrines you just put up there.
Salvation isn't doctrinated
All of these processes are why you are called a born again Christian.....the recognized christian who's name is in the book of life..
who is suppose to recognize that you are Christian God or man?
You people want to do things for people to see and recognize abi?
It isn't bad, but again it's not necessary.
However,
I can be a Christian by name
I can be a Christian by birth
I can be a Christian by family religion..may be cos my dad is a pastor.....but I'm actually not born again...shey you get ...
in that case, it's far better to remain a Christian by whatever means, whether from family or personal conviction.

What's born again good for in the first place?
Only for people to see now.

After that what next?
Nothing

I bet you, no one pays you salary for being born again so what's the gain?

May be, one church member will see you and say ahh! This person is born again o, and they will help you when you are in need.
That's the only benefit.

Christianity EtcRe: Is There Any Difference Between A Christian And A Born Again Christian. by paxonel(m): 1:50am On Oct 23, 2022
born again or Christian or whatever, no difference.
So long they all believe in Christ.

And be mindful of this difference :

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

This implies that except a man is born of water and of the spirit..
To be born of water implies the water baptism of John the Baptist
To be born of the spirit implies being a disciples of Jesus at the time he was yet to be crucified.
All these is what Jesus meant by the term born again in John 3:3 and they happened during John the Baptist era and therefore have nothing to do with Christians.
Infact, Christians were first called Christians at Antioch after Jesus has been crucified, John the Baptist wasn't among

The bottom-line is, the word born again used by Jesus in John 3:3 isn't necessarily of Christianity but it was of John the Baptist

Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Christians Find It Hard To Help Fellow Christians by paxonel(m): 5:31am On Oct 21, 2022
Zanzibar1:
Christians shy away from this questions even though we know its true.
Why do Christians find it hard to help fellow Christians who are in need. They would rather help some one from a different faith than consider you.
i have been in dire need of employment and walked up to an Evangelist who was also a lecturer; i believed he could assist in recommending me for a job. For reasons best known to him, he recommend another person for the job from a different faith and he got it.
Rumor has it that it was a bargain for him to attain higher position. I cant blame him, he put opportunities above faith-attachment

At another time, i had heard of a family who needed some financial assistance...they weren't supported by the church. the response was, ''the church is not a bank or government that will now be assisting you, you should be bringing money to the church and not asking for assistance from it ''.
Why do we find it hard to help
what you experienced is not attributed to Christians alone. Some Muslims also ask the same questions, why do Muslims not helping fellow Muslims?
The same thing with Traditionalists, Hinduists, Budhists, Atheists, Judaists and even Charitists

The reasons there ate thousands of denominations is because thousands bible teachers have their different meaning to one bible statement, but all their different means are deviations from from the one definite meaning the statement or verse is trying to explain

it has a definite accurate meaning. Not that it can mean this or it can mean that.
