2 He makes me down to lie In pastures green: he leadeth me the quiet waters by.
3 My soul he doth restore again; and me to walk doth make Within the paths of righteousness, ev’n for his own name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale, yet will I fear none ill: For thou art with me; and thy rod and staff me comfort still.
5 My table thou hast furnished in presence of my foes; My head thou dost with oil anoint, and my cup overflows. 6 Goodness and mercy all my life shall surely follow me: And in God’s house for evermore my dwelling-place shall be.
To clarify the text below for some readers – this is my personal conviction and opinion supported by others. If you disagree with anything here, take it to the Lord in prayer. I do not claim to be a master or a teacher and to know everything perfectly as someone suggested. Since the beginning of Christianity, there have been disagreements and arguments of which the Apostle Paul himself wrote. It’s not different today. Some of my close, personal Christian friends disagree with me about Christmas, so you need to decide for yourself if you want to celebrate the birth of Christ or not.
———————————————————————————————————————————
I am coming boldly against the lying statements of some Christian and non-Christian conspiracy theorists claiming that Christmas is a pagan holiday which causes lots of confusion and suffering as well. It reminds me of one young family whom I knew at school where I used to teach. They had two lovely kids and also were teachers. The mum of a young father was also a teacher. At one point those young people became Jehovah Witnesses. They stopped celebrating Christmas and other holidays, they became weird and changed dramatically. The mother of that young man complained that her grandchildren are utterly unhappy as they suddenly are denied Christmas, Christmas tree, gifts and all the Christmas celebration they knew from the past. Everyone in that family was unhappy and shocked. Nowadays, someone is diligently trying to destroy this long tradition of celebrating the birth of Jesus. It reminds me that Jehovah witness couple. As most people know Jehovah’s Witness is a cult, who does not even believe that Jesus Christ is God and our Savior (check what they believe exactly, I was told by a former Jehovah Witness lady, that they believe Jesus was an arcangel Michael. According to wikipedia: “Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that the Archangel Michael, “the Word” of John 1:1, and wisdom personified in Proverbs 8 refer to Jesus in his pre-human existence and that he resumed these identities after his ascension to heaven following his death and resurrection..) It saddens me badly that devoted Christians are rejecting now the most beautiful holidays of the year. More and more Christians are giving up on Christmas without the proper knowledge and checking if this is true, that Christmas is a pagan holiday. They stop celebrating the birth of our precious Savior, singing the most beautiful Christmas carols and songs which our great, great grandfathers sung to glorify Jesus Christ.
Think about it, who is behind Jehovah’s Witness cult? Isn’t it the devil and the spirit of antichrist? Whoever denies that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God, God Himself and our Saviour is a lair and an antichrist, said John, the Apostle.
So, if this is the case, who does not want Christians to celebrate Christmas? Isn’t it the same spirit of antichrist? I bet it is. I have been walking with Jesus very close for the last 12 years and I have never had any conviction about Christmas. Yes, we are not to overeat and overspend money going crazy about presents and other things, not to mention work Christmas parties where people get totally drunk.
I am talking about born again Christians who love the Lord Jesus and it brings them a joy to remember that He was born for us in December. This is also a great occasion to tell others why we love Christmas and why Jesus was born.
Lots of people just watch some conspiracy videos on youtube and without making any research they just follow blindly anybody who says something online.
This is wrong and this is not very wise because, firstly, this way you can be led astray by anybody. Secondly, how do you know who is the person who made that video? Do you know him personally? Are you sure it is not a satanist who is only pretending to be a Christian? We do not know who is on the other side. Do not believe blindly anything.
Now, anyone can make any video they want and upload it to youtube, Beware and be wise. Jesus Christ told us to be gentle like a lamb and wise like a serpent. Be careful people, satan and his demons are very crafty, much more than humans, check everything and pray about any strange changes that you may want to introduce into your life after watching any unchecked video or reading unchecked articles. That is also true that Christmas has been hijacked by the world and people celebrate it no matter if they are Christians or not. As it is written on the following pages (you can check the validity of the historic information given by going to the old-style libraries with paper, printed books). I cannot imagine the Lord not being happy when His children, the church celebrates His birth every year. Do you celebrate your child’s, mother’s, father’s friend’s birthday? I bet you do, so why we should not be happy that our Wonderful Prince of Peace was born to save us from our sins? There is an excellent, article below with historical facts which explain that IT WAS PAGANS who stole the date of Christmas celebration from Christians. You can read a lot more information there which will prove that Christmas belongs to Christ. The article is well written and well researched.
“An increasing number of Christians have come to believe that Christmas is derived from paganism. They’ve heard that the timing of Christmas may have been borrowed from Roman sun god worship. Or that Christmas trees come from German paganism. Or that the star on top of the Christmas tree comes from astrological worship. But these myths are all so wrong. Christmas—the celebration of the Nativity of our Lord—is a thoroughly Christians celebration. Here’s why.” Read more in the link above.
I love Christmas, I love you Jesus my Lord, my King, my life and my Saviour forever.
And I will not be quiet about your birth, this is the time to tell everybody why we have such joy and why armies of angels were singing when you came to this world.
Thank you, Lord, for humbling yourself and becoming a man to save us.
I have noticed that most churches do not even mention this theme, ever. They do not want to think or talk about demons as if they went extinct like dinosaurs.

But beware there are some nasty and sexual images there. We need to wake up to the reality of what’s going on behind the scenes. Demons are being pushed everywhere, sexualization, perversion and demonization are in the mainstream media and education. It’s shocking what’s happening but most people close their eyes and live in a bubble hoping it’s going to be OK! No!, It’s going to be even worse, but 90 per cent of Christians do not even know how to deal with a tormented person, how to cast out demons and how to get self-deliverance when they are under attack. They cannot even discern that this is a demonic attack.
Let’s be serious at last. Tell people about Jesus, wherever you go and whoever wants to listen, pray, stay in the bible and learn how to do deliverance, how to be strong in the Lord and how to do spiritual warfare. You can start with teachings by Derek Prince on demons and deliverance, get his books and pray that the Holy Spirit leads you and protects you. Watch his teachings on youtube. It is not a game, it is extremely serious. The Lord Jesus gave us everything we need to fight this evil. Do not neglect your weapon. It is there, ready to be used. And love your God with all your strength, and heart and love your neighbour. Love is the highest expression of holiness.
It’s getting worse every day. Get ready people, demons are everywhere now, we are being invaded by evil spirits. We must be strong and know how to deal with them to chase them away. There is no more time to pretend, the devil does not exist and demons vanished 2000 years ago, like most churches believe. They do not even want to talk about deliverance. So God trains individual Christians, those who obey and those who believe the full gospel of Jesus Christ. We are livging in crazy times.
This is true. Suicide is caused by demons. They first attack people with depression and then whisper to your ears to kill yourself. This is a terrible and exhausting battle, some people are too weak to keep resisting, and they do not understand what is going on. Only Jesus Christ can deliver those people permanently from this kind of torment. This is all demonic. Shame on churches and Christians for not doing or believing in deliverance, they avoid this topic as if it was shameful and untrue but this is all in the bible. Jesus showed us what to do and how to do it to help others. Christians, you had better get the knowledge and believe what the word of God says. It’s unthinkable that a pastor did such a thing. In the bible, there is only one case, Judas, who committed suicide. Depression and suicidal thoughts are terrible, it’s a horrible torment. What a shame that there was nobody to cast out demons of that pastor to help him.
Wake up people, the bible is true, all of it. Demons are real and there is a strong reason why Paul told us to put on the armor of God. This is the commandment of the Lord Jesus to cast out demons and heal the sick, not only to preach the gospel.
