CHRISTMAS THOUGHTS




There are those that "reject" Christmas and Easter due to their association with pagan festivals. Over the years I have vacillated between a whole bunch of different points of view about these matters.

Several years  ago, my heart has been more centered in Himself, Jesus the Christ, and as a result things have changed. For the more I focus on Him, the more I see Him revealed in ALL THINGS. Christmas for some is seen as the time of the pagan festival of the sun god instituted to get the pagans involved with Christian issues. But another way to look at it........JESUS...is the Lord God of the Sun....and the Son of God. Jesus fulfills the pagan celebration in Himself. Likewise...when Easter is celebrate...the Rites of Spring...new birth from winters death...the goddess of ISIS...Jesus fulfilled all the pagan natural heart was looking to in ISIS. Jesus is the fulfillment of NEW BIRTH, NEW LIFE....He is the fulfillment of all things. So often we get looking at the "thing" through the filter of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and miss Himself....This day...this season, this year...NOW is the time of Himself, Jesus..Yeshua, my Saviour...the Lord of all creation to be worshipped and celebrated, his forgiveness received and freely given!


That is what Christmas, Easter, Passover, and every other holiday and celebration ultimately points to....The Lord God, He is One and there is NONE OTHER>>>>
