ChristMass 2018

It is December 25, 2018, ChristMass morning and I cannot sleep, so here I am waiting to hear what GOD has to say to me.

The song “Victory In Jesus” keeps running through my mind, “There’s victory in Jesus my savior forever; He sought me and He bought me with His redeeming Blood; He loved me err I knew Him and all my love is due Him; He plunged me to victory beneath His cleansing Blood.”

This song really is the gospel – Our victory is only in Jesus who redeems us by His Blood into eternal life. Not because we hear about Him and what He did but because He pursued us when we did not even know Him. He loved us and saved us by washing away our sins in His Blood.

So why do we celebrate birthdays? In many cultures only certain birthdays are celebrated, ages that have to do with coming of age. In America we celebrate the birth date of family and friends every year they are alive; some even celebrate them of those who have died. We celebrate the birth dates of people we consider famous or worthy by how they lived their life long after they have died.

Most of the world knows about Christmas but today many do not associate it as the birth of Christ. It is a time of showing love by giving gifts and doing good deeds for others, especially those in need.

So why do we not remember that ChristMass is about celebrating the greatest birth in human history? The birth of GOD as a man so that He could save humanity from eternal damnation. Something that GOD planned before He even created humanity and fulfilled at the appointed time in history so that humanity could be saved.

In our western culture it is because those who hate GOD and want to deny that He exists have convinced those who actually believe in GOD and Christ that they should not force their belief on others (which is what they are doing). And many Christians because they are not Christ ians (those who love and obey Christ as He loved and obeyed GOD) have excepted what the GOD haters have said as if it were true. Their reality of hating and denying GOD does not make it truth; GOD is truth.

Those who hate GOD and Christ have the right (by free will) to do so, but they do not what those who love and obey GOD to have the same right to express and live accordingly. I say GOD haters because a true atheist would not care, if someone does not believe is any god why would they care or be offended if someone else did?  There are people who believe that Americans did not go to the moon and they tell their theories of how it was all faked.  So what, most of the world knows that we did and don’t care what those who do not believe have to say. If a person were truly an atheist (some one that does not believe in any god) he would not care if I believed in Jesus and lived my life accordingly. Why would he?

Before I became a Christ ian I believed that there was a GOD but I did not know anything about Him and I did not want to know anything about Him and I ignored those who wanted to tell me about Him, I just did not care. So why would an atheist care or be offended if I believed in Jesus? At the most he might think I was a fool and just blow me off if I tried to tell him about Jesus, but why would he want to tear down all crosses and deny me my American right of freedom of expression?

No, those who claim to be atheists but want to remove all signs of Christ ianity and deny me my right to express what I believe while retaining his right to express what he believes is really just a GOD hater. GOD haters are not atheists they are those who want to remove all evidence of GOD to ease their conscience of the guilt of their lawlessness against GOD in the hopes that they will not be judged for their sin.

The truth is, “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness even so the Son of Man must be lifted up that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.  GOD so Loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have ever lasing life. GOD did not send His son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes is not condemned but he who does not believe in the only begotten Son of GOD is condemned already. And this is the condemnation, that the Light came into the world and the world hated the Light, but they loved the darkness because their hearts were evil. For everyone who hates the Light does not come to the Light so that his deeds are not exposed. But he that does the truth comes to the Light that his deeds may be seen that they are done in GOD.” John 3:14-21
