First Dec. 25 Christmas tied to pagan shrine

Somebody must have untied it, because December 25 has been running loose in the world for a long time.

 

Moon - read your trailer;
act appropriately :smilewinkgrin:

 

Phony Balonoga - put your sign on the site, Stupid

ah, er, well put your 'stupid' sign on the site :applause:

 

This location

http://www.timeanddate.com/weather/west-bank/bethlehem

predicts a low Christmas Eve of 38ºF
and for Christmas Day 58ºF.

The wind will be 7MPH from the NorthWest.
The Humidity will be 35%

Yes, there will be shepherds out
in their fields keeping watch by
night on Monday (24 Dec 2007) night.

God gave every Sheep a Wool Coat,
you know.

Meanwhile, it is 39 degrees outside wind 5MPH
humidity 65% - so it is cooler here than it will be
during the night after Christmas Eve
(supposed to get down to 25ºF tonight in OK)
I had short arm coverings - I was alright for 15-min.
If I had a wool coat, I'd be fine to sleep
the night IF IT WOULD BE A LOW of 38.

Come on, on 25 Dec 0001BC there was no
need to pack the sheep into an indoor place when
there is no fear of a freeze nor rain -- and
usually such a place didn't exist.

On the 8th day, A Hebrew male is to be circumscized
to show he was a real human: a Hebrew.

IMHO Jesus was born on 25 Dec 0001BC:

25 Dec 0001BC - day 1
26 Dec 0001BC - day 2
27 Dec 0001BC - day 3
28 Dec 0001BC - day 4
29 Dec 0001BC - day 5
30 Dec 0001BC - day 6
31 Dec 0001BC - day 7
01 Jan AD0001 - day 8

Thus Messiah Yeshua was born on 01 Jan AD001:
the very first day of the era named for Him:
AD = Anno Dommino - Year of our Lord.
On 01 Jan AD001 Yeshua Ben Yoseph of Nazereth
was made not only a Hebrew (real Person) but
also was destined (chosen) to be the Savior
of All Hebrews and Many, Many of us goy/gentiles.

 

Maybe you don't understand you can start a topic but you can't
control what idiots say on it???

 

Paganized Christians?

Here is another strawman--with a wool coat.

Confronting pagan idolatry in family tradition can be a disowning endeavor. Been there, done that. Some will give up their kin rather than their idols. Jesus said that would happen--if we follow Him.

Confronting pagan idolatry in our religion can get us martyred(witness=martyr) as an heretic; sometimes just exiled without a wool coat in the dead of winter, in the Alps. We live in an age of toleration--so long as you do not preach the truth. The world hates the truth, so do the religions of the world.

Jesus said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you".

Jesus is faithful.


Have a happy...Saturnalia?

Bro. James

 

Good point

Using your meteorologic data, can we surmise anything about global warming in 1-BCE? Was anyone gathering data about termite gas contributing to the amount of CO2 at the global level?

The real issue here is quite serious: most of us think our traditions are scriptural.

Does it really matter?

 

I first got into the '25 Dec' isn't the birthday of Jesus
discussion on-line in 1986 (21 years) .
So I checked it every year. Seven (7) of those years was
the temp Christmas Even night (or early Christmas
morning) was under 40ºF (including 2007).
That means the odds are now days that
6 of 7 years one will find sheep out in the field.

While Alaska has it's 'three dog night' (a night when
one needs three sled dogs to keep warm);
Yisrael has it's 'three sheep night' (a night when
one needs three sheep to keep warm).

 

Not to me.

Red is for the Blood that Jesus shed on my Behalf.

Green is for the New Life in Christ.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 

The Holiday Symbols are what one makes of them.

Col 2:16-17 (Geneva Bible, 1599 Edition):
Let no man therefore condemne
you in meate and drinke,
or in respect of an holy day,
or of the newe moone,
or of the Sabbath dayes,
17 Which are but
a shadowe of thinges to come:
but the body is in Christ.

Bless the Lord oh my Soul
and everything that is within me
Bless His Holy Name!

My Family & I shall Worship our God
(100% saved Family Members: Myself,
my Wife and Two live-in Grandchildren:
a boy-16, a girl-10 --Praise the Lord!)
on 24 & 25 Dec 2007 by giving on-another
gifts because 2,007 years ago God gave
the best ever (both eternity past to
eternity fortward)gift, the Spotless Lamb:
Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) Ben Yoseph (Carpenter of Nazereth),
Ben King David (Beth-leem, Iuda), Ben Iuda, Ben Yisrael;
Carpenter of Nazereth.
