THE War On Christ/mas!

The War on Christ/mas!

Text: Matthew 2:1-22

     Is there a war on Christ/mas (Christmas)? Is the secular, humanistic society in America against Christ/mas?

This week, today the sixtieth of December, in the year of our Lord, Jesus, twenty eleven there is a school in a city of California that has banned a flower called poinsettia. Why, because it’s red and it offends people!

Today we call Christmas break, winter break! There is a war on the words we say, like merry Christmas.

In Genesis to Revelations, Satan has declared war on God. In Matthew chapter 2 from verses 1 -22”When Herd the king heard this he was troubled, and all of Jerusalem with him.”

Verse sixteen, “Then Herod when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men ,was exceedingly angry ;and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were born in Bethlehem and in all the districts ,from two years and under according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.”

But God provide provision and protection for baby Jesus! Herod died and Jesus lives! Verse 19-23

Herod rots in his grave but the tomb is empty. There is a hymn, “Up from the grave he arose with a mighty triumph over his foes…..”

The world can say that there is no God, no Jesus. They can ban all they want. Jesus did live, died and arose from the dead and him still lives and reigns in our hearts! There is something about that name, Jesus! Jesus! The Son of God!

Christmas will always live in our hearts!

I believe that there is a war on Christmas, because Christmas reminds people that that people need the Lord.  Humanism on the other hand believes that you do not need God and they can live life on their own.

Christ/mas mean more of Christ!

Dear friends God loves you so very much that he sent a new, pure, sinless baby to be our Saviour! That we who are born sinners can have a Saviour!

Merry Christmas! To all and to all good night! Come to Jesus today!

Love,

Eddie
