Christmas is Not a Holiday! It’s a Major Event that Brought Salvation into the World!
Jesus was born into this world as a fully human child and given as a son by the Father. “For unto us a child is born; unto us a son is given,” (Isaiah 9:6). With this one sentence, we see in Jesus His full humanity as well as His full deity. Jesus, the Eternal Son (His position within the triune Godhead), was given by the Father to humanity in order to become a ransom for many (cf. Matthew 20:28). Jesus is not only the reason for the season as many are fond of saying. He is the precious gift of the Father to a world filled with sinful, fallen, rebellious humanity.
The Coming New International Finance System Thanks to the Government-Sponsored Religon of Secularism
Of course, many will see Cuddy’s warnings as the ravings of a conspiracy theorist or someone who is part of the lunatic fringe. This actually speaks to their own understanding. Too much has slipped by most of us hardly noticed at all. We cling to the idea that the world will simply continue on as it has since the beginning. We laugh at the notion that America could fall, in spite of what history proves.
Christmas: God Clothed Himself with Humanity and Lived Among Us to Save Us from Sin and Death
As we learn in Philippians 2, God took on the form of humanity, lived among us, and through Jesus, we see the Father. In other words, Jesus is the exact representation of God in human form (Hebrews 1:3). In another place we read that in Jesus, the fullness of the Godhead dwells in bodily form (Colossians 2:9). This is something atheists simply deny. They are entitled to their belief system, but in essence, when they try to eradicate Jesus from the public sphere, they are guilty of imposing their “religion” on the rest of us. Of course, they don’t see it that way at all.

False Teachers: You Will Know Them by Their Fruit
Too many false teachers give themselves away today by the way they live and on money that was ostensibly given to them for the purpose of spreading the gospel. It is not right. In fact, it is unconscionable.
Mandela was No Martin Luther King, Jr. by Any Stretch
When one takes the time to really understand what Mandela was all about, it becomes clear that he was the polar opposite of MLK. While most world leaders have taken time out to “honor” Mandela, some are sticking to their own understanding that Mandela should not be honored, except possibly as a terrorist by other terrorists.
The Deplorably Evil People Who Are Running Our Federal Government to Control Us
If the federal government can confiscate our guns, ignore the 4th amendment by illegally searching us, our luggage, or our cars (and even our homes like the situation after the Boston Marathon bombing incident), yet leave the southern border of America completely unattended, while also deliberately bringing Muslims into this country (without ever determining whether said Muslims participated in jihad or other forms of terrorism in their own country) proves beyond doubt that the intentions of the federal government are not what we are being told. They are what they appear to be and that is a determined effort to squelch our freedoms and control all aspects of society.
Sometimes God Brings an Unlikeable Person into Our Life as Sandpaper
We will run across Pharisees and other religious types as well as authentic Christians and non-Christians throughout our life. Chances are good that professing Christians will not receive a gentle rebuke humbly. They will reject it. Isn’t this what the Pharisees did routinely when Jesus pointed out the truth to them? The truth was always objectionable for them to hear.

Christian: What Do You Do When You Just Don’t Like Certain People?
For me, I’m taking stock of my life today and I have come to the unfortunate realization that yes, there are individuals that I simply feel no kinship toward. Okay, I’ll say it. I can’t stand them for one reason or another. That’s a bit embarrassing.
Authentic Christians Must Meet Physical and Spiritual Needs of the Lost
As we go through life, we need to be aware of the fact that while God wants us to avoid evil, the best way to do that is by actively meeting needs of people who have real needs! We cannot do this with an “I have to do this even though I don’t want to” attitude. It must be done because we truly care about people. We care that they are lost. We care that they have needs that they honestly cannot meet. We care enough to do something for them because their need is right in front of us!
