In the comment on the 1 in 4 are fools post, I was requested to write another article about christmas trees.

| Egyptian tree of life |
As a Messianic Believer in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) one thing I do agree with atheists and agnostics is that christmass and all its trappings needs to be removed from public display as being offensive. Neither christmass or any of its trappings is Christian - it is "christianized" paganism. God demands Holiness and mixing paganism with worship of Him is an abomination. He did not accept it when Aaron made a golden calf (Exodus 32 ) nor does He accept it today.

| Assyrian tree of life |
Most people do not realize that christmass (as well as easter) was celebrated long before Messiah Yeshua was born. In different cultures, the false "gods" (most, if not all, were nephilim) had different names. The "god" tammuz (who is also known as mithra, ra, ba-al, horus, etc.) is the one celebrated at christmass and easter.
christmass was started when tammuz was killed by a wild boar (why ham is popular at christmass and easter - think about it - celebrating a Jewish Messiah with pork???) and allegedly rose the third day. This was to mimic the virgin birth and resurrection in advance of it happening. Ancient Israel brought the pagan celebrations back with them when they returned to Israel from Egypt and Babylon. There is an account of them celebrating easter long before Messiah Yeshua was born - and God called it an abomination (Ezekiel chapter 8) Jeremiah speaks about them celebrating decorating their idol tree:
Jeremiah 10
1 Hear what the LORD says to you, people of Israel.
2 This is what the LORD says:
“Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the heavens,
though the nations are terrified by them.
3 For the practices of the peoples are worthless; they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel.
4 They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.

| Two obelisks; one decorated |
The christmass tree is a phallic symbol just like the obelisk. Every time you decorate the tree especially when you hang your round little ornaments on it (think about what that is symbolizing) you are performing pagan rituals. The star at the top. I won't get too graphic but it is purely pagan and purely pornographic. The christmass tree has no business being used by Christians and should be banned (same as obelisks) as being pornographic.
Do your own research on christmas and its pagan origin. christmass was never celebrated by "christians" until
Contantine mixed the pagan celebration of tammuz with "christianity" forming the roman religion in ~ 300-400 AD.
That's well written, and while I have read lots about holiday tree rituals, I had no idea that the Assyrians had one, too! I am always stunned by the number of Christians in this part of the country (midwest) who unknowingly mix Pagan rituals with Christianity, especially when the two do not mix! I stole a term from you...."Messianic". It seems to say a lot more that "Christian".
ReplyDeleteLove your posts about the Horman investigation but this religious stuff is really up for interpretation. I am continually put off and offended by people who spout their exclusive opinions about "God"...
ReplyDeleteI will never understand this 'duality' with the human condition where we/you/they - feel compelled to embrace this fantastic ideology that gives ultimate judgement to a super-organism which falls under countless names and conditionally manifested in as many forms.
There is a lost tribe called "Dobuans" which is still active today - closed off to the engineered world we live in - with their own religious foundation. in their case, they worship the Yam because it is their lifeline for nourishment and their commerce for trade. Crops are traded for brides and the families wealth and prosper is measured by the success of their farms. that's all there is - no god, no messiah, no fluoride....wait, whats that got to do with it? you know. Adolph Hitler knew too. the power of suggestion, whether spiritual, psychological or purely chemical will prevail - no matter the motivations at work. cheers.
Just because you do not believe it does not make it any less true.
ReplyDeletePeople have worshiped the creation more than the Creator and that is because they have to worship something and they reject God.
I was not intending to write about christ-mass this year although it was requested I do so and I had no reason not to oblige. It was even requested by someone who said they do not believe in God.
As for the atheist article - if it had not made the news and I had not wanted to vent about it, I would not have written that article. Let's face it - this is a blog and I said I would post on what I was thinking about.
The Kyron Horman investigation seems to be going anywhere - if there is an investigation left. It was not until six months later and from another source that it was made public that the Nicholas Francisco case had been closed because it was no longer a missing person case. They had not notified the public because the family - especially the wife - did not want it made public that her husband ran off with his boyfriend. People continued looking for his body for months after the case was closed yet law enforcement never told anyone they knew there was no body. This is why I think this may have happened in the Kyron Horman case. If the family wanted it kept private, no one would know even if they were spending time and money searching for Kyron.
It seems the world event articles I post are popular - especially how the drone may have been a trojan horse. Also there are lots of people who use search terms related to the end times that read the blog.
If Kaine and Desiree were still ranting about Terri in the media, I would definitely be writing more about Kyron than I have been recently. If Kyron is still missing, the gag order and Tony's job (saying Desiree needed to back off) is the only logical reason for them to have stopped their rants all of a sudden. Of course, Kaine's attorney could have told him to cool it because it was hurting the future divorce case too.
There are some who see what is going on in the world and how the bible said it would happen exactly the way it is happening. Try reading about it and see for yourself instead of criticizing my beliefs. Also, if you have any comments about Kyron you would like to discuss, feel free to post them and I'll discuss them. I do not mind opposing views if they are respectful.
