Check out these headlines from WorldNetDaily:

Christmas in America becomes battleground

District bans instrumental Christmas carols

Christmas card with 'Jesus' banned

Christmas CD banned for mentioning Jesus

Teacher takes 'Christmas' out of carol

Students threatened by Christmas?

'No Christian symbols at Christmas'

School bans Christmas, but OK with Halloween

Ban on Christmas leads to court fight

Christmas book banned from class

Christmas music banned from bus

School bans saying 'Christmas'

Christmas event is no-Christian zone

Principal cancels dramatization of 'A Christmas Carol.' Dickens classic too religious

for school

Macy's and Bloomingdale's have prohibited the phrase "Merry Christmas"

New York Mayor David Bloomberg now refers to the giant Christmas tree in the city as a holiday tree

I wonder how long it will take before Christmas is banned in this country.

warm regards

Budman,

These headlines are very frightening, brings many a troubling thought to mind. For if the country is to ban Jesus from being so much as uttered amongst the lips of men, the country will truly be in the hands of Satan himself.

Do hope that believers who still feel that there is hope for this very much commercialized holiday can come to unite and stand firm in their beliefs.

With Love In Christ,

Danielle

If Chistmas is such a pagan holiday why then would they spend any time at all trying to remove Christ from it? Glory be to God that his son was born unto us in this season.

Yeah it is same in Canada, they are removing the christmas carols and they dont think it is important being to think about Jesus Christ. it is really sad. now more more they says "happy holidays" instead saying "Merry Christmas" they do celebrate for themselves not for Jesus Christ right now. and They even forget what the Christmas really meant for

Sad to hear that. I do believe it is all over the world is doing the same thing.

In Him

Budman,

Similiar things are happening over here in Northern Ireland, but no one is paying much attention to it. I'm not a huge fan of Christmas..............LOL...............no, i'm not a scrooge, before anyone says so.

What bothers me, is someone/something, is making a concertive attempt to remove the very name of Jesus from our daily lives. This to me is the serious matter.

They're gonna have to fight me for my Bible though, it stays with me!

Your Sister in Christ Jesus

Oh get off it, for every negative headline you post here there are a hundred positive ones. Really now, think of things as a whole, and dont just look at the little pieces that people display for you.

It's the same something that is trying (and succeeding) in turning the world against Israel. The same something that is having the schools teach our children that we all came from a pond of ooze, and that the whole universe just created itself from nothing by nothing. The same something that has the world believing that Islam is a "religion of peace" despite the overwhelming evidence against it.

The same something that is trying to get the churches to accept gay clergy with open arms. The same something that has the world believing that it's okay to abort babies because they are nothing but a blob of cells.

The same something that wanted to be God.

warm regards

Amen Budman!! And the same something that is re-writing our children's school books. And inserting the myth that our Constitution has "separation of church and state" in it.

Christians can not be silent. We must stand up and refuse this garbage. If we don't, we will be permantly silenced - and have no one to blame but ourselves. Call your school principal and the school board. Call the regional offices of the stores who solicit your Christmas money, but refuse to use the word "Christmas". It takes an effort - but isn't it important?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
