STRAITWAY TRUTH DELIVERANCE MINISTRY ONLINE DELIVERANCE MANUAL   Christmas It’s Pagan!   I often talk about two different types of Christianity. One type is real and scripturally sound. The other type is a form of godliness but is heathen and pagan in nature. This division is going on in our country (America). The false, pagan, and heathen natured Christianity seems to be ruling in the minds of the masses of people. It’s built on lies and its traditions cannot be proven by the Holy Bible (KJV).   Christmas is a holiday and that is a fact. However, the bible does not teach holidays. It teaches holydays. There is a difference. The three major components in modern day pagan Christianity are listed below; these are in fact, satanic idol worship passed down from the heathens and have been pushed and approved by the Roman Catholic Church.   Christmas Easter Sunday as the Sabbath Day   All three can easily be proven to be lies because you cannot find any Christian or Israelite believer celebrating these abominations.   Majority professing Christians say that Christmas is the celebration of Jesus’ birthday although there are more non-Christian participants than Christians.   Jesus told us that those who would be like Him, Christians, would be hated by all nations.   MATTHEW 10:22  And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.   MATTHEW 24:9   Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.   LUKE 21:17   And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.   Of course this type of truthful doctrine applies to all of those who say they are disciples of Jesus Christ but the majority of disciple claimers steadily try to be like and look like the world.   The word ‘celebrate’ means to perform a sacrament of solemn ceremony publicly and with appropriate rites. Also it is to honor by solemn ceremonies or by refraining from ordinary business, or to demonstrate satisfaction in festivities or by other deviation from routine.   A lot of people in this country, whether  they are a Satanist, Christian, pagan, witch, atheist etc… state “Mary Christmas” on or around December 25th. So Christmas in fact, cannot be an appropriate Christian holiday. It can be an appropriate pagan Christian holiday.  There is an old saying, “if the world loves it, you know GOD cannot be in it!”   Let’s look at a few short biblical facts, which should be enough to convince any real believer how wrongful this nonsense is.   Fact     In Palestine, December 25th is the coldest time of the year. Fact    There was not three wise men.   Fact    Jesus was a child by the time the wise men got to Him. Fact    You cannot find one reference in the scripture with a manger scene, commonly called the nativity scene. We often see this scene sitting in front of all the pagan idol worshipping Churches today. One thing is for sure, the shepherds where not in the field at night during this cold time of the season.   Once again, Christmas is in fact a pagan satanic holiday masked under the world wide banner of a Christian holiday. It has been passed down by the Roman Catholic Church. An informed Bible believer would not and should not lie to their families or their children. You cannot find one commandment in scripture to back up this false festivity called Christmas.   True worshippers worship HIM in Spirit and in Truth! Not in the World and in Lies. Please read Jeremiah the 10th Chapter and see what Almighty Yah has to say about the heathen Christmas tree. Also read Ezekiel the 8th Chapter concerning the image of Jealousy.   Other references besides the Holy Bible that clearly tell you the truth are:   Ø      Encyclopedia Brittanica-  claims Christmas as a pagan festival chosen as the birth of Christ in Rome. Ø      Unger’s Bible Dictionary, p.1170 Ø      The Encyclopedia Americana tells you about the rebirth of the sun.   There is nothing Christian about Christmas. Sure religion has tried to make it appear Christian, but anything that is likened unto Jesus Christ MUST line up with the WORD OF GOD and Christmas simply does not line up. From Santa, the wise men, the date of Christ’s birth, to the giving of gifts and the nativity scene the Christmas celebration is full of lies and hypocrisy. Please read Matthew Chapter 2.    Do not wish me a merry Christmas; you may not like my answer, especially if you say it to me in front of your children!   GALATIANS 4:16   Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?   JOHN 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.   Pastor Charles Dowell Jr. Servant of the Lord Jesus Christ
