Atheists celebrate Christmas because it is a pagan fest. They get that. They like that. They know that it has nothing to do with the birth of Christ. They're not 'that' stupid.

Any 'believer' celebrating Christmas hasn't got their head screwed on right.

Check out the bible, for the feasts our Lord would like us to celebrate, starting with the Passover.

Christmas is a pagan festival, it is twisted. Nothing to do whatsoever with the birth of Christ, no matter what any one says, it's a big fat lie.

Ever been to a party where the only reason to celebrate was the party itelf?

Boring wasn't it? True celebration must be rooted in an event. As part of our

celebration of Jesus birth we have developed the custom of bringing a tree into

the house and decprating it with various kinds of ornamennts. Soem ot these

ornaments are elegant and pretty to look at. Some have a significance to them.

There are also all manner of lights, satin and galss balls, stars, angels,

tinsel, but on our tree we habe one that hodls a special sigiificance , a

reminder of of the event that we are celebrating. It is a nail wrapped in a red

ribbon. We think that our gift giving is expensive, we will never know the full

cost nof Jesus leaving Heaven. The obvious cost is the cross. As I consider the

nail, I think also of a hammer and wood. The manager was probably made of wood

held togehter by nails. Joseph was a carpemter by trade and hammer wood and

nails to support his family. At the end, Jesus meets with hammer, wood and

nails, once again. No comfort for Him on the cross, only the pain of those

nails. No fatherly support for Him on the cross, even His Father, God turned his

back on Him as the sins of the whole world, your sins and my sins, were laid on

Jesus. And he died on the cross, His last words were "It is finsihed" and I

have also read that this could translated as "Paid in full". He paid the bill

or the debt of sin that we never could. What is your response to the King?

Does your response include joy to celebrate His life, death and resurrection? I

know as even as I consider the hammer, the wood, and nails , they bring me joy,

a peace, that passes all understanding. Because I have a Savior that loved me

so much, He gave up His place in Heaven to come to this earth and with the sole

pupose of dying for me on the cross. Each blow of the hammer, erases another

sin. The Lord of Life, perfect in every way, became the gift God knew I needed,

the gift of forgiveness and grace. I have nothing togive Him in return ecept my

worship, service and prayers and all of my heart. As I consider this perhaps I

should add a hamnmer and wood, to go with the nails. To remind me, that these

are the consequences of my sins.

Celebrate the incarnation of God into human flesh. You?

I celebrate the birth of my Savior Jesus Christ.

Why the hell do you care?

You don't even think that there is a god!

we are thankful
