Decide For Yourself

[I]False worship meant to decieve little children[/I]
[B]Luke 2:8-11[/B]
8 In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in
the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And an
angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of
the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.
10 But the angel said to them, �Do not be afraid; for behold, I
bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the
people; 11 for today in the city of David there has been born
for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

The truth is that all of the customs of Christmas were long
before the birth of Christ, and a study of this would reveal
that Christmas in our day is a collection of traditions and
practices taken from many cultures and nations. The date of
December 25th comes from Rome and was a celebration of the
Italic god, Saturn, and the rebirth of the sun god. This was
done long before the birth of Jesus.
[I]In harmony with Jesus' command, early Christians celebrated
only his deaths[/I]
[B]Luke 22:17-20[/B]
17 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He said, �Take
this and share it among yourselves; 18 for I say to you, I will
not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom
of God comes.� 19 And when He had taken some bread and given
thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, �This is My
body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.� 20
And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten,
saying, �This cup which is poured out for you is the new
covenant in My blood.
[B]1Corinthians 11:23-26[/B]
23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to
you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed
took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and
said, �This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance
of Me.� 25 In the same way He took the cup also after supper,
saying, �This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as
often as you drink it,in remembrance of Me.� 26 For as often as
you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord�s
death until He comes.
[I]Worship the Father in spirit and truth[/I]
[B]John 4:23[/B]
23 But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers
will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the
Father seeks to be His worshipers.
[B]Ephesians 5:10,11[/B]
10 trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 Do not
participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead
even expose them;
[B]2Corinthians 6:14-18[/B]
14 Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what
partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what
fellowship has light with darkness? 15 Or what harmony has
Christ with Belial, or what has a believer in common with an
unbeliever? 16 Or what agreement has the temple of God with
idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God
said, "I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE
THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. 17 "Therefore, COME OUT
FROM THEIR MIDST ANDBE SEPARATE,says the Lord. "AND DO NOT TOUCH
WHAT IS UNCLEAN; And I will welcome you." 18 "And I will be a
father to you, And you shall be sons and daughters to Me, Says
the Lord Almighty."
[B]1Corinthians 13:6[/B]
6 (Love) does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with
the truth;
[B]Exodus 32:4-10[/B]
4 He took this from their hand, and fashioned it with a graving
tool and made it into a molten calf; and they said, � This is
your god, O Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.�
5 Now when Aaron saw this,he built an altar before it; and Aaron
made a proclamation and said, �Tomorrow shall be a feast to the
LORD.� 6 So the next day they rose early and offered burnt
offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down
to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. 7 Then the LORD spoke
to Moses, �Go down at once, for your people, whom you brought
up from the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves. 8 They
have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them.
They have made for themselves a molten calf, and have worshiped
it and have sacrificed to it and said, � This is your god, O
Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt!�� 9 The LORD
said to Moses, �I have seen this people, and behold, they are
an obstinate people. 10 Now then let Me alone, that My anger may
burn against them and that I may destroy them; and I will make
of you a great nation.�
[B]Ephesians 4:25[/B]
25 Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of
you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR,for we are members of one another
[B]Zechariah 8:19[/B]
19 �Thus says the LORD of hosts, �The fast of the fourth, the
fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh and the fast of the
tenth months will become joy, gladness, and cheerful feasts for
the house of Judah; so love truth and peace.�
[B]Psalm 15:2[/B]
2 Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks with integrity,
and works righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart.

Popular myth puts his birth on December 25 th in the year 1 C.E.
The New Testament gives no date or year for Jesus� birth. The
earliest gospel �St. Mark�s, written about 65 CE � begins with
the baptism of an adult Jesus. This suggests that the earliest
Christians lacked interest in or knowledge of Jesus� birthdate.
The year of Jesus birth was determined by Dionysius Exiguus, a
Scythian monk, �abbot of a Roman monastery.
[B]1 John 1:6[/B]
6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the
darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth;
[B]Matthew 7:20-23[/B]
20 So then, you will know them by their fruits. 21 �Not everyone
who says to Me, �Lord, Lord,� will enter the kingdom of heaven,
but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will
enter. 22 Many will say to Me on that day, �Lord, Lord, did we
not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and
in Your name perform many miracles?� 23 And then I will declare
to them, �I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE
LAWLESSNESS
[I]Keep away from bad association[/I]
[B]2 Thessalonians 3:6[/B]
6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that you keep away from every brother who leads an
unruly life and not according to the tradition which you
received from us.
[B]James 1:22-24[/B]
22 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely
hearers who delude themselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of
the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his
natural face in a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself
and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person
he was.
[B]James 4:6,7 [/B]
6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, �GOD IS
OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.� 7 Submit
therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
