Vatic Note: In my travels today, I fell upon this one and realized I had read much of this years ago when searching for the "True" religion and faith of Jesus Christ. I actually checked historical as well as religious documents and found out that the Nicene Conference that gave birth the Catholic church met in early 300 AD and it was a negotiations between the Pauline Christians and the pagans (the original Christians were left out of the Conference as were thousands of writings by the Apostles). The Bible was not cannonized until 360 AD.
As a result the Pagans got some of their wishes, such as Christmas date, Easter, and Churches. The Christians did not use Churches at the time, so that was a compromise for them. Very interesting history. This is not to say it didn't end the way it was suppose to as far as the Bible is concerned, its just that the resulting church was not the original Church of Jesus Christ. Its definitely a change of pace, but what we are discovering every single day, is that ALL the institutions we thought we knew both historically and politically, are nothing as we had been told or taught.
I checked google for a list of "Revised and Updated" Bibles and the list I got showed every single Bible has been updated in 2011. Now why is that??? Also where is the Book of Enoch, which I understand is still in the Jewish Bible. Why not the Christian Bible? Like everything else. Lots and lots of questions and few answers.

Baal-Mass= (VN: Baal is the Cattle God, every town, tribe, region in Canaan had their own Baal God. It was what the Israelites were building when Moses came down from the mountain)
Mary (X) cross Mass=means she is the mediator,
redeemer, Saviour, mother of god (according to
the UNbiblical false heretical denying of Christ. According to the teaching of
the Catholic Church). She is shown venerated with the 1000 points of light
(Illuminated) representing Lucifer the light bearer; same as the all-seeing-eye
on the dollar bill.
Prior to the
legalization of Christianity by the Emperor Constantine in 313 A.D., (VN: The Bible was not cannonized until 360 AD) no
universal date or even formal celebration of Christmas is
found. For instance, Origen (d. 255), St. Irenaeus (d. 202) and Tertullian
(d. 220) do not include Christmas or its date on their
lists of feasts and celebrations. Again, the spiritual focus was on Easter. look
up:(Ishtar) etc… here:
http://www.piney.com/HislopTOC1.html
After
legalization, the Church was better able to establish
"universal" dates for feasts and to organize their
public celebration. Moreover, the Church had to address emerging
controversies concerning Jesus and how He entered this world. Such concern would
focus more attention on the importance of celebrating
Christmas, the birth of our Lord.
On the more
"practical" side of this issue, Roman pagans used to
gather at the hill where the Vatican is presently
located to commemorate the "Birth of the Unconquered
Sun." This pagan feast was celebrated throughout the Empire either
on Dec. 25 (according to the Julian Calendar) or on Jan. 6
(according to the Egyptian calendar). Although not proven with certainty, some
historians credit Constantine, who declared Sunday as a day of rest in the
Empire, with replacing the pagan festival with that of
Christmas.
Santa And The Tammuz
Tree
Every year as the world
honors the holidays (holy days), Christ-ians continue to follow the ancient
Babylonian ritual of placing an evergreen tree in their home and
decorating it. Clearly, many people are aware the Christmas tree is associated
with Pagan religious idolatry, but they continue to rationalize their
involvement because they claim that God has now "sanctified" the holiday and
somehow redeemed it.
This is, of course, apostasy of the worst kind; (an abomination) for the practice of convincing oneself of the acceptability of anything they desire to do when the Bible clearly instructs them not to places them in deadly spiritual peril.(sin is the breaking of the law; the wages of sin IS DEATH)
The Lord says "my spirit will not always strive with man," so we should be earnest in our efforts to submit everything to God lest we eventually cross some undesirable spiritual threshold. The Old Testament book of Jeremiah explicitly tells us "Learn not the wav of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people are vain; for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax; They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not." (Jeremiah 10:2-4
In ancient Babylon, the goddess figure Semiramus was the mother of the Sumerian deity Tammuz. Other surrounding cultures have differing names for Tammuz. He is Attis to the Phoenicians, and Adonis to the Greeks, etc. In each legend, he dies young and his birth and death are honored on his birthday which coincided with the Winter Solstice. This was celebrated on December 25th. Part of the religious ritual involved cutting down a young green evergreen tree (which kills the tree) as a way of commemorating the premature death of Tammuz.
This tree is then decorated in the fashion Jeremiah described. A corollary to the Tammuz tree was the rite in which the women cried for the dead god. Shortly after Jeremiah's time, we find the idolatry has penetrated the Jewish temple where we see "Sun" worship and "women weeping for Tammuz." (Ezekiel 8:14-18) and (Ezekiel 16:14). Sun Worship is closely related to the end of the Winter Solstice when the sun begins to stay in the sky longer. This is all part of Luciferean-Satanic "SUN" Worship / Babylon "Mystery" Religion / 666!
The boughs of holly and related accouterments are descended from Celtic and Druidic rituals associated with the Wiccans in short, witchcraft. Even the Yule log that's placed on the fire is a Babylonian word. Obviously, the concept of a jolly immortal fellow dressed in red leaving gifts under the tree has a serious occultic flavor, but naming him a saint seems to make him acceptable with worldly

By the way,
Christmas is but one of the pagan holy days that have
infiltrated the Christian calendar and replaced the holy days that God ordained.
Easter, which is derived from the name
Ishtar, is actually closely related to the Tammuz tree.
Indeed, the common Christian practice of a
"SUN-day-SUNrise service originates with an
early morning worship service in which the penitents face East at the dawn –
precisely what was seen during Ezekiel's time when the women wept for
Ishtar's son Tammuz.
"Christians"
routinely defend the SUNrise Easter SUNday service as honoring the
discovery of the resurrection of JESUS that occurred 3 days after
Passover with many of them not realizing they are honoring the ancient
pagan holy day of Easter (Ishtar) that predated
Christianity by many centuries. In fact, the New Testament clearly shows the
Apostles honored Passover while the evil king Herod honored
the Easter celebration. (Acts
12:2)
State
churches and World Christians refuse to repent of this pagan
practice even as they assign the label of cultist to the various groups
that seek to tell them the truth. Santa Clause / (Satan's claws)
continues to cast his spell as churches across the country produce pageants
& programs like The Singing Christmas Tree. These extravaganzas are
commercially marketed through seemingly respectable Christian organizations.
Some churches, such as the Wesleyan Church, produce a variation. In San
Diego, the Skyline Wesleyan has a pageant called The Living Christmas
Tree. Tickets are available by calling 619/462/TREE.
Even without a
formal choir program, literally thousands of Christian churches actually place
Christmas trees right in their sanctuary every year. In our area, we have
the Festival of Trees wherein every charitable group in the county gets
involved as a community effort. At the Festival of Trees, they follow the
druidic ceremonies and even name each tree. Too add to this, this is where
"EVER"- green (tree) came from. During the winter everything was dead and brown
except the evergreen tree; hence the Baal-MASS tree.
Christmas Trees
reign in so-called American "Christian" culture. Sacramentalist & scriptural
renegade Chuck Colson's Prison Fellowship sponsors the Angel
Tree program. Top Christian musician & Prison Fellowship
spokesman Steven Curtis Chapman represents the practice to
Christian youth through his music. Even the Salvation Army has an
Angel Tree program. Indeed, virtually every form of Christian media seems
to get immersed in the Tammuz tree every year.
I have examples of
Christian T-Shirts, greeting cards, and even sheet music of Gospel songs
incorporating the evergreen paganism. I have examples of Christian musician's
newsletters decorated with boughs of holly. I've collected expensive print ads
running in national Christian magazines that feature Christmas trees behind the
printed pitch. I have seasonal catalogs from Christian book publishers with
holiday titles that show manger like scenes in groves of Christmas
trees.
In a Christmas
drama catalog put out by Lillenas (the Nazarene church media arm), 3 of
the 5 book covers shown features Christmas trees. Sandi Patty's
Word book (released by Thomas Nelson, the largest Christian
publisher) Merry Christmas With Love features a boy dragging a tree into
his house on the cover. Let's Keep Christmas published by NavPress
& written by revered pastor Peter Marshall has the whole family
dragging the abomination to their house.
Children's ministry
figure Rob Evans has a Christmas tree on the cover of his video from
Integrity Press. Praise Banners has a 40" banner of a Christmas
Tree that is marketed specifically to churches. Top Christian music artist
Brian Duncan is pictured in front of his tree on his new Christmas
CD. Even the print ads for the farewell version of the Young Messiah tour
featured the evergreen motif in the form of boughs of holly while a drama
produced by the Lamb's Players has the same Babylonian artifacts.
There are literally hundreds of other examples but the question du jour is,
What's Wrong With This Picture?
The refusal of
Christians to recognize the importance of relinquishing such demonic
associations is a powerful indicator the church has gone astray. Following a
pagan practice is sin, but the more dangerous sin is the steadfast
refusal to recognize the Bible tells us to present our bodies as "a
living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is (our) reasonable service"
(Romans
12:1). This conflict illustrates the very real problem of how we interpret
works versus grace.
Most "Christians"
continue to buy the lie they can routinely choose their own path
& the Lord will honor these ungodly choices under grace. These have
been mesmerized into believing that if they even try to keep any day holy they
are somehow being legalistic. They continue to reject the leading of the
Holy Spirit & accordingly they have quietly become "the children of
disobedience" (Colossians 3:6). The Bible tells us for this cause God
will send them a strong delusion because they love not the
truth. That delusion has now inundated the "church" with the mystery of
iniquity.
But the Word of God
is pure and always true. God is not mocked, thus we would do well do take to
heart the already cited passage concerning the Tammuz Tree and
what will happen to those that refuse to hear His warning: "Learn not the
way of the heathen…in the time of their visitation they shall
perish." (Jeremiah 10:2, 15)

December 25 was established as Christmas Day so as to coincide with the Roman holiday Saturnalia.
ReplyDeleteA few years ago, I did some checking on the approximate time of year that Jesus was born.
For starters, the Bible says that the shepherds "abided in the fields with their flocks by night." They didn't do that in the winter.
For another, Jesus was six months younger than John the Baptist. The Bible tells what month (according to the Hebrew calendar, which began on the first day of Spring) was conceived. We can figure from that that Jesus was born somewhere between late June and early August.
Finally, the seemingly erratic movements of the Star of Bethlehem indicate that the Star was, in fact, Jupiter at opposition during a time of year that the earth was shifting on its axis (solstice). Jupiter was, in fact, at opposition around 4 BC, which was the year that most religious scholars today agree that Jesus was born.
Astronomers at that time were much more learned than people today realize. They had to have known that Jesus was not born in December.
Vindication is bittersweet. Why be "nice" about it? It simply encourages mediocrity to flourish....
