My heart is saddened in me tonight, I never knew so many claiming to be Christians believe that Christmass is of the Devil. And Easter as well.
My God My God! Are you Father as hard hearted as they are that you would not want the little children to rejoice and have fun on Christmass Season. And Easter alike. Can you believe it Father that they are so hard hearted and religiously bound?
No I cant, but wait how can I not I made man and have been around a day or two Bob so I guess I can. What can I say if I try to turn them, the crush on their spirit and conscience would destroy their heart beyond hope of repair.
That’s sad Father what do you want me to do about it? Not much Bob satan will just use it to put enmity between you and them. Ok Pops whatever you say. Of course you know how hard hearted I can be and to these nincompoops who deny Christmass are out of my book, Oh I aint got a book.
Any way Father I just thought I’d say Hi and pour out my complaint on you that I might find a little release, but I sure would like to catch those ole boys in a back of my Christmass tree for a moment or two. Just might learn’m sumpthin.
Oops I forgive them father help me not to hold any animosity tword them.Bye the way Pops have a Merry Christmass season. Hope ya are getting your Tree decorated up Good Bye see ya later.

Easter was a pagan holiday. Christ has left the meaning of Christmas for a lot of people. I can see why someone would say that, but that doesn't make them right.

Jesus spoke in parables to confound those who thought they were greater than everyone else. The relegious leaders always think that they know it all. So he put them to shame for getting to stickiedly relegious.
God is not a God of relegeion but a God of Love and Jesus came to set us free from The bomdage of the Law. KNowing we cannot maintain it totally.

Christmass is as you know Jesus Christ birthday. And he came to set us free and to keep us from hell sure we should celebrate it the bible even teaches it.
Matthew chapter one verse ten When they saw the star they rejoiced exceedingly. That was just the star they were happy about. We they saw Jesus they fell down and worshiped him.They took gifts to Jesus as a babe or child. That is Gods parable or sample for us to give gifts to the little one's on his birthday, for He loves them and loves to see them feel good about their selves. IN the following you can see when Christmass was to be celebrated
Matthew Ch 1. v 25
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
Matthew the 1st book of the new beginning.
The First Christmass
This is the 25th verse and on the 25th day we celebrate His birthday.
Christmass was designated on the 25th
(Allegoricly speaking-)
Started on the 12th month in order to carry the old covenant saints into the new years covenant.

Easter is another story it is the day Jesus was raised to hevean. If God chose it to be on a pagan holiday it was to rid the world of the holiday of the syngog of satan and do away with it by replacing it with His.
By doing so He fixed it so the two become as one the the unsaved would celebrate as well as the saved and with Christ in the holiday the world will hear about Jesus as well.
I once was a heathenJesus came in and made me whole
Easter once was a heathen Jesus intered in and made it holy.
Why do you think Peter made mention of it in
And Peter has a part in easrter as well have you ever heard the old easter song hear comes peter cotton tail hoping down the bunny trail easters on its way . Soon all Gods little children are gonna be running in play. Anyway think I said enough for now may God bless you all and open your eyes. For God loves the worldly as well other wise he would not of gathered me up too.

I get angry walking past the santa displays in the shopping centres where they charge people money to go and see santa. So many line up to see santa and couldn't care about Jesus who is free to see.

Celebrating isn't necessarily bad, as long as we are doing it correctly. We have such fond memories of happily decorating a Christmas tree or hiding eggs during Easter, that we forget what the holiday is supposed to be about. Christmas trees are a pagan ritual, where boughs of evergreen trees would be decorated with valuables and then burned as a sacrifice. How is that cherishing our Savior? How is spending money on worthless baubles to stick on a pagan icon out of blind tradition celebrating the birth of Christ? Presents? Presents are okay because it's a sort of re-enactment of the wisemen bringing gifts on to Jesus, it allows us to give to one another, to show love and affection...but when does it become too much? Are presents still good when families have to rack up debt to please their children...are presents good when you ask a child what Christmas is about and the first thing they scream is OPENING GIFTS? And what about Santa Claus? A saint who did good deeds in his community has quickly become an idol. He knows when you are watching, he knows when you're awake, he knows if you been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake? Wow, you know, there is only one being i know of who knows those things all the time, and that's God. Teaching our children about who Saint Nicholas was and the good things he did is one thing, but lying to our children and telling them some jolly fat stranger up north is watching their every move so they better stop screaming for sweets before Santa crosses them off the list for presents has NOTHING to do with what the church set Christmas up to be.

Celebrate Christmas, but remember it's about Jesus, the good deeds of Saint Nicholas, of giving to those we love, and giving charity to those who need it...not christmas trees, and getting presents, and Santa claus.
