Gun Control and TYRANNY: Guest Article


Back to the Future: What History Teaches About Gun Confiscations


by Dave Hodges -  thecommonsenseshow.com
gun confiscation 21It is clear that Obama, Boxer, the media, Hollywood stars and host of other elected representatives are coming after our guns. 
Leading the media charge is none other Michael Moore in which he implores the nation to let the murders of 20 Sandy Hook elementary students not “be in vain and stand for gun control.” Moore seems to forget that he and his family have several armed body guards. 
Then there is Obama who refuses to mandate that gun free zones at schools be replaced with armed guards designed in order to protect our children. And Obama also seems to forget to mention that he has 11 armed guards protecting his children while they attend school in a “gun free zone.” Oh, I think Obama and Moore think that our children are important. It is just that their children are much more important that our children. Simply put, Obama and Moore advocate for “rules for thee but not for me.”

Outright Gun Bans Are Looming

Regrettably, I believe that we are going to see an incrementally based approach to seizing our guns on the part of the Obama administration. Subsequently, Americans could very well be on the verge of committing “National Suicide by Gun Control”. The gun control advocates are positioning themselves and their gun-grabbing policies to be perfectly timed to influence people during this window of opportunity motivated by the highly suspicious set of mass shootings (e.g. Batman shootings, Sandy Hook shootings).
All totalitarian governments begin their invasion into civil liberties with the promise of safety from whoever plays the convenient role of the “boogie man” of the day. In Nazi Germany, the original "boogie man" were the communists and then this specter of boogie men kept expanding until anyone who was an enemy of the State needed to be controlled and disarmed. 
Isn’t this what we have witnessed since the days of 9/11 with the creation of the DHS inspired MIAC report which lists returning veterans, gun owners, Libertarians, Ron Paul supporters and Constitutionalists as domestic terrorists. This is your list of people who will be disarmed first and the list will keep growing until all Americans are disarmed. 
The totalitarian pleas of “Let us protect you from yourself” rings loudly and clearly through the halls of Congress and in the Oval Office. History shows that when governments demand to protect you from yourself, we should all get a little bit nervous.

History Speaks Will American Listen?

History shows that bad things — very bad things — happen when a government confiscates the guns of its citizens. It is an undisputed fact that gun control and gun confiscation has preceded every instance of genocide in the 20th century. How quickly we forget the lessons of history, or, perhaps we never bothered to learn the true lessons of history in the first place.
If we ever allow government to subvert the Second Amendment, we very well could be witnessing a prelude to an American genocide for specific targeted groups, for there is nothing as dangerous to a totalitarian regime as an educated and well-armed populace. 
[Haven't I warned my readers repeatedly of AN AMERICAN HOLOCAUST coming for the past 18 years???-PRS]
Totalitarian regimes flourish in an atmosphere of ignorance. The dumbing down of American students has removed the first obstacle which could stand in the way of the establishment of a brutal police state control grid. 
The second obstacle, the removal of America’s citizens guns as a last line of defense against tyrannical government has commenced with the catalyst being the Sandy Hook shootings. And let’s not forget that this criminal Obama administration has been caught shipping guns into Mexico to the drug cartels in order to undermine the Second Amendment, and we are supposed to trust these proven criminals to be the only ones who will have guns in the new UN controlled America?

What Happens After Gun Confiscation?

Before we passively allow the Obama administration to strip away our last line of defense from an increasingly totalitarian government, by acquiescing to the United Nations and American advocates for gun control, perhaps we should examine the end game resulting from past gun control efforts:
genocide 4
genocide 31. In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves against their ethnic-cleansing government, were arrested and exterminated.
2. In 1929, the former Soviet Union established gun control as a means of controlling the “more difficult” of their citizens. From 1929 to the death of Stalin, 40 million Soviets met an untimely end at the hand of various governmental agencies as they were arrested and exterminated.
3. After the rise of the Nazi’s, Germany established their version of gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill, and others, who were unable to defend themselves against the “Brown Shirts”, were arrested and exterminated. Interestingly, the Brown Shirts were eventually targeted for extermination themselves following their blind acts of allegiance to Hitler. Any American military and police would be wise to grasp the historical significance of the Brown Shirts’ fate.
4. After Communist China established gun control in 1935, an estimated 50 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves against their fascist leaders, were arrested and exterminated.
5. Closer to home, Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayans, unable to defend themselves against their ruthless dictatorship, were arrested and exterminated.
6. Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves from their dictatorial government, were arrested and exterminated.
genocide 57. Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million of the “educated” people, unable to defend themselves against their fascist government, were arrested and exterminated.
8. In 1994, Rwanda disarmed the Tutsi people and being unable to defend themselves from their totalitarian government, nearly one million were summarily executed.
The total numbers of victims who lost their lives because of gun control is approximately 70 million people in the 20th century. The historical voices from 70 million corpses speak loudly and clearly to those Americans who are advocating for a de facto gun ban. Governments murdered four times as many civilians as were killed in all the international and domestic wars combined. Governments murdered millions more people than were killed by common criminals and it all followed gun control.
genocide 2
Historically, American gun control legislation has been imitating Hitler’s Nazi Germany gun control legislation for quite some time. Consider the key provisions of the Nazi Weapons Act of 1938 and compare it with the United States Gun Control Act of 1968. The parallels of both the provisions and the legal language are eerily similar.
Private ownership of guns is the necessary component needed to fulfill the Jeffersonian mandate for national self-defense. Yet, increasingly and reminiscent of Nazi Germany, the United States government is incrementally chipping away at private citizens right to own a gun. This doesn’t make sense because FBI statistics clearly show that 90% of the guns used in the commission of a crime are stolen! 
Does the government really believe that criminals, both American citizens and illegal aliens, as well as terrorists, are suddenly going to perform their civic duty and immediately register their guns? How is America better-served if the only ones who don’t have access to guns are the law-abiding citizens? So, one must ask who are the gun control laws designed to protect and why?
Thomas Jefferson was very clear in his writings regarding the right to bear arms. Jefferson knew that the preservation of the Republic ultimately rested upon a well-armed citizenry. Jefferson felt it was absolutely necessary for American citizens to be able to protect themselves. 
The protection that Jefferson spoke of was not from our obvious enemies of the day (France and Britain), but from our own government. Jefferson made this point quite clear when he admonished future generations of Americans to fulfill their duty to overthrow a government if they failed to serve the needs of the majority of its citizens.
Finally, most would wonder what gun confiscation would look and feel like in America. No speculation is necessary because of the gun confiscations which took place in New Orleans in 2006 in the aftermath of Katrina. Any American who thinks that gun confiscation is a good idea, needs to desperately watch the following video.
Is this the government that you are going to accept? Even the most brainwashed of Americans cannot deny what you just watched on the preceding video. If we allow Obama to possess the ability to ban our guns, this is what you will likely see across the country and the potential for this to spread into a flash point for widespread violence, and even revolution, should be concerning to all of us. This issue, in my humble opinion, needs to be our line in the sand against this tyrannical government.
Historians generally agree that there are eight identifiable stages associated with an unfolding genocide. It would behoove all Americans to familiarize themselves with these stages in order to accurately assess the developing threat should gun confiscation ever become a reality. An analysis of the applicability of the eight stages of genocide to present day America will be the focus of the next part in this series.-End

Finally...My Personal Comments on SANDY HOOK SHOOTING

By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-
Sandy Hook Elementary School

By now, I know my readers are wondering: WHERE are Pam's reports on the Sandy Hook massacre that recently took place?

I have deliberately waited for several reasons. First of all, I was not there when this happened, nor have I traveled to that region to personally investigate this situation. I have had to reply on various independent/alternative news sources for information to trickle in. When it comes to performing investigative journalism, I prefer to be there personally and to interview, investigate, etc. In this case, it was not possible.
And so, I am turning to more reliable ALTERNATIVE (and not MAINSTREAM MEDIA) news information sources for a more honest and unbiased, reliable evaluation of what happened there.

Truthfully, I can inform you that I was praying against this type of scenario over the Christmas holiday season, long BEFORE it ever occurred. School and mall shootings have been following a predictable pattern, year after year, with the obvious goal of GUN CONTROL LEGISLATION in mind by the perpetrators of these false flag/black ops staged "shootings." 

Holiday seasons seem to be the time they favor, for maximum emotional impact on the America people. 

And also, because it coincides with a major satanic season of ritual human sacrifice, WINTER SOLSTICE. Have innocent children and other victims of such mall/theater/school shootings for NWO agendas, secretly been considered by the NWO perpetrators to be HUMAN SACRIFICES, to "get power from satan" to bring forth his NEW WORLD ORDER???

Although many may not want to hear this, I will repeat this sobering truth again and again. The NEW WORLD ORDER is in fact Satan/Lucifer's manifest kingdom on earth. The backbone of this satanic NWO are his followers. And like him, they are murderers and liars all. Satanists are taught and believe that the more victims they sacrifice, the more money and power satan will give them, and the quicker the NWO will come forth. They also believe that the more helpless and innocent the victims are, the more power satan will give them as well. 

I have interviewed former satanists in their homes personally, some even having worked with the CIA, who outlined this "BASIC SATANISM 101" truth to me repeatedly, across this nation. The above truths explain why children and the innocent or helpless are so frequently targeted for such black ops. This is also why many occur near major satanist sacrifice ritual dates as well. Church in America, when are you going to WAKE UP, and stand in the gap, and pray more earnestly for satan's strongholds to be utterly down down throughout our nation!

Prior to this alleged "school shooting," informed people that I discussed this possibility with, admitted to me that they too were anticipating something like this to occur over the holiday season. It gets old after a while, and the American people are finally catching on to this  outrageous type of  NWO tactic used for gun control.

As God is my witness, I was praying several weeks before this event, beseeching God to restrain all violence and school/mall shootings during this time period, knowing their patterns in the past, and realizing who in fact was behind these staged massacres and what their desired NWO goal was: gun control legislation. In fact, I had been praying daily prior to this event at Sandy Hook, that God would hold back such horrors. We ALL should be praying constantly against such darkness!

Did God somehow fail, because He allowed it to take place? No. An omnipotent God is incapable of failure! Rather, SIN is the culprit. God has given mankind a free will, with the consequences thereof as well. I personally wonder how many MORE such staged shooting events could have taken place, IF Christians like myself had NOT been praying for God to stop them!


The volume of information and reports indicating that this WAS INDEED A FALSE FLAG BLACK OP staged shooting is now overwhelming, and more information is flooding the Internet daily. I read dozens of reports every day now, and each one serves to shed a little more light on what REALLY happened, utterly destroying the "OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT EXPLANATION."

Furthermore, isn't it fascinating that FACEBOOK recently purged it's site of PRO-GUN POSTERS who also worked hard to expose the Sandy Hook farce as well??? Here is a list of  numerous articles exposing this:

http://beforeitsnews.com/media/2012/12/facebook-purges-pro-gun-accounts-2450936.html

https://www.google.com/#hl=en&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&q=facebok+ban+purges+pro+gun+sandy+hook&oq=facebok+ban+purges+pro+gun+sandy+hook&gs_l=hp.12...610.17875.0.20735.37.34.0.2.2.2.702.8762.0j16j11j3j2j1j1.34.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.425Bol5z9aM&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.b2I&fp=93a0003da4073894&bpcl=40096503&biw=1280&bih=666

But then, WHY should this surprise anyone? The owner of FACEBOOK, Mark Zuckerberg, was recently given an award by none other than that infamous spy and drugs cartel, but the CIA!!! Could it BE, that the CIA was using FACEBOOK to spy on the American people? The CIA is used extensively to promote the NEW WORLD ORDER agenda for America. Interesting observations....

Furthermore, here is another interesting article related to all this:

http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2012/12/media-quiet-about-san-antonio-theater-shooting-2524596.html


On Sunday December 17, 2012, 2 days after the CT shooting, a man went to a restaurant in San Antonio to kill his X-girlfriend. After he shot her, most of the people in the restaurant fled next door to a theater. The gunman followed them and entered the theater so he could shoot more people. He started shooting and people in the theater started running and screaming. It’s like the Aurora, CO theater story plus a restaurant!
 
Now aren’t you wondering why this isn’t a lead story in the national media along with the school shooting?
 
There was an off duty county deputy at the theater. SHE pulled out her gun and shot the man 4 times before he had a chance to kill anyone. 

So since this story makes the point that the best thing to stop a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun, the media is treating it like it never happened.
 
Only the local media covered it. The city is giving her a medal next week. Just thought you’d like to know...-End
*******************************************
The above article makes an excellent example of NEWS MEDIA BIAS/BLACKOUT. 

"News media bias and blackout" is something that every honest and independent journalist strives to beware of and avoid, because MAINSTREAM MEDIA is simply filled with it!

Government/military/intelligence censorship and media bias for swaying public opinion are used continually in major news medias.

I refuse to compromise the truth to the American people. And thankfully, there are those other courageous independent journalists and news sources who also refuse to become bootlickers, brown-nosers and lapdogs of the corruption in "the system" that is destroying our nation.

What REALLY HAPPENED at Sandy Hook Elementary 

School that fateful day???

YOU DECIDE! 


Below are some excellent links filled with shocking and revealing information that mainstream media largely remains silent about:


'Dead' teacher Vicki Soto with warlock, i.e.male witch, making sign of Baphomet.

Newtown has Reputation as Satanist Hub 

In this 1996 article, Perry DeAngelis found that although the Newtown Police Dept. covered for Satanism, 45% of local respondents to a telephone survey had heard of Satanic cult activity in Newtown.


SATANIST "CHURCH" IN NEWTOWN...was Lanza a member?


And finally, just go GOOGLE it up....

AND NEVER STOP PRAYING AGAINST THIS KIND OF EVENT!

Personal Message for GEORGE H. W. BUSH, With Love


By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-

Recently, the press has been reporting that George Herbert Walker Bush has been quite ill, hospitalized with breathing problems and a persistent condition that is not yielding to conventional medicine. Bush Senior is also 88 years old. Below is one brief article outlining his condition:
************************************************

Former President George H. W. Bush Has Taken a Turn for the Worse

Posted: Dec 25, 2012 11:46 AM MSTUpdated: Dec 25, 2012 11:47 AM MST
 Former President George H. W. Bush will spend Christmas with his wife and other family members in a Houston hospital after developing a fever and weakness following a month-long, bronchitis-like cough.
  Bush's spokesman says doctors are "cautiously optimistic." But he says "every time they get over one thing, another thing pops up."
**************************************************
I have taken care of senior citizens professionally as a home health aide for over 30 years now, and realize that at his age, typically anything can happen at this point. The following article is written out of sincere Christian compassion for this man and his family.Because of  our family ties through LEVI REDFIELD to the Bush family, I have a holy obligation before Almighty God to write the following to Mr. Bush Sr.
For my Christian friends and readers who understand the true depths of God's mercy and compassion for the lost, won't you please take the time to PRAY for this man for the grace to repent and receive God's mercy and forgiveness at last, through Jesus Christ? And pray for his entire family as well for salvation. For this is exactly what Christianity is all about. Thank you!
-Pamela Rae Schuffert
*************************************
George Sr and Barbara Bush

Hello, George. Ever since I first read the articles outlining your recent serious health conditions, I have increased my prayers for you

I have been praying for you and Barbara and your children for many years, for the power of the true and living God and Father of Jesus Christ to touch your heart and save you eternally. An eternal soul is a precious thing. Jesus said, in fact, "What shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" 

And YOU have an eternal soul. A soul that will spend eternity in either eternal joys and peace and forgiveness with the true Living God forever....OR in the place of eternal TORMENT and JUDGMENT for every sin a person has committed against God and man...

FOREVER.

I care deeply about where you, and every family member of yours, will spend eternity someday.

The fact is, we have ALL sinned, including me. I learned years ago that there was only ONE WAY to get rid of my sins that would otherwise send me to eternal torment and hell, and that was by repenting and receiving God's ONLY solution to SIN, His Son JESUS CHRIST. 
Jesus was sent by God to take the punishment we ALL deserve for every evil thing we have ever done. He graciously died in OUR place, for our sins to be forgiven. 

This means that when we accept His salvation and believe in Him, He takes our sins away and the punishment we deserve as well, and gives us INSTEAD, His mercy and forgiveness and ETERNAL LIFE! This way we are FREE FOREVER from the eternal damnation our sins are worthy of! He changes our hearts and lives from the inside, from wretched sinners to the children of God instead.

I used to believe in the New Age (NWO) and the occult at one time, when I lived in the Washington DC area. At one time I was completely caught up in the teachings of the NEW AGE and the occult. And my very own famous USAF father, working at the Pentagon and Bolling AFB (where I was born) was recruited into the NWO agenda for America through the USAF...and it's "religion" of satanism, or Illuminism/Illuminati. This served to turn him into a very cruel man...of course.

Satan, or Lucifer, always destroys people from the inside and turns them into monsters. He strips people of love, compassion, and tenderness, and turns them into murderous monsters filled with cruelty and depravity of every kind. And this is what happened to my once loving father. But I never stopped praying for God to touch his heart and bring him to salvation through Jesus Christ!
And over the course of thirty years, my father finally came out of the satanic darkness of the NWO and the tyrant behind it called Lucifer, and he turned to the TRUE and living God and Jesus Christ for forgiveness and salvation instead. Just like any Illuminati or satanist, my father too participated in satanic rituals and cruel human sacrifice (just like you....)

But when he found himself dying and about to face the TRUE God, and realized that without FORGIVENESS he would spend eternity in eternal torment for his terrible sins, he turned to Jesus Christ for forgiveness for his many sins, AND FOUND PEACE AT LAST BEFORE HE DIED! Can God forgive what satanists and Illuminati do? YES! Jesus hung on that cross and died for ALL sins to be forgiven...BECAUSE HE LOVES THE SINNERS AND WANTS NO ONE TO PERISH!

And that includes the ENTIRE BUSH ILLUMINATI BLOODLINE as well. Every night when I pray, I include YOU and Barbara, Bush JR, Jeb, Marvin and wife and two kids...the entire Bush family are in my prayers for GOD'S ETERNAL MERCY AND SALVATION to come into every one of your lives.

Yes, dear George, I know all about CIA drugs and your role(and you know that I know)...the NOAHIDE LAWS legislation you were more than happy to sign to pave the way for the guillotines to behead Christians nationwide...the FEMA camps you worked hard to help establish to kill the Christians and all other opposers of your NWO...Bohemian Grove and little children...and more.

However, I will state without apology from the written and eternal word of God, that there is nothing that you have done, that Jesus Christ has not died on the cross to take the punishment for. 
There is nothing you have ever done, that He cannot forgive when you come to him in repentance, seeking His forgiveness and mercy. God WANTS to forgive you! God WANTS to have mercy on you! God WANTS to save you from eternal torment and judgment! He WANTS you as His own!

However, Lucifer is the great deceiver of mankind and destroyer of mankind. Oh, how he wants to destroy YOU and the whole Bush family forever! Lucifer loves to lead people on with cheap thrills and rewards in THIS world IF you worship and serve him...and we all know that the NWO is simply Lucifer's earthly kingdom. 

But Lucifer also loves to deceive and DESTROY HIS FOLLOWERS IN THE END! And he will laugh at your stupidity for ever trusting or serving him, as you fall into the abyss and suffer eternal torments FOREVER...when you COULD have instead REPENTED of your sins and received the TRUE God's mercy and salvation and had eternal life instead, through turning to Jesus Christ.

I am so glad that my very own father began to realize all this before he died of bone cancer. My mother and I had to forgive him MANY times for his cruelties, BUT we would NOT give up praying for his salvation! And finally, six months before he died, my father repented of his terrible years in satanism and NWO darkness at last! He admitted that it didn't work anyhow! And he asked Jesus Christ into his life to forgive his sins and to save him from eternal damnation.

AND IT WORKED! God forgave him! LOVE began to replace the hate in his heart, and he became a changed man before he died! And following his peaceful death in 1998, God gave me a vision of my father's eternal soul IN HEAVEN! He was happy at last! 

In this heavenly vision, my father looked young and vibrant. He turned to look at me and smiled. And then, he turned to walk up radiant white steps into CLOUDS OF GLORY beyond which I could not see...and into what I knew must be the Presence of a holy and Almighty God and His GLORY! For, you see, Jesus Christ had taken ALL my father's terrible sins away, and given him mercy and forgiveness and eternal life. And the grace to spend eternity in HEAVEN with a holy God forever!

THIS, dear George and Bush Family, is what 
the TRUE and wonderful LIVING GOD can do 
for each and every one of you. 

Of course I know what an Illuminati family does and who they worship...because on my mother's side we ARE Bush Illuminati bloodline through Levi Redfield.

But thankfully, Jesus Christ got a hold of our lives and saved us from Lucifer's deceptions, 
and brought us to the TRUE AND LIVING GOD instead, and saved us eternally. 
Oh, how thankful I am 
for Jesus Christ and HIS MERCIES!

And dear George and Barbara...Jeb...George JR...Marvin and all the REST of the Bush family, the true God can do the same for each and every one of you today. All through His wonderful Son who died for ALL of our sins, Jesus Christ. His blood was shed on the cross, to atone for YOUR sins and to SAVE you from eternal damnation.

George, it is a fact of life. Young satanists and sinners must someday become old at last. Doesn't matter how much power, fame and glory they might have gained on earth. The hard truth is, saints and sinners alike must all finally die someday. And then stand before Almighty God to give an account for their lives!

My father discovered this sad fact of life as well. And only then did he begin to consider eternity, eternal truths, and where he might spend eternity IF the BIBLE WAS TRUTH! And dear George, the Bible IS truth!

George, at your age and in your state of health, you must realize that you could die at any time in the near future. 


There is NO SECOND CHANCE after death! 
George, please be kind to your eternal soul at this time. Please take the time to repent of your sins, and to get right with God. Come to Jesus Christ for the forgiveness you need for ALL your sins, today. You will never regret it! 

Look...I forgive you, because of Jesus Christ. The very detention camps program YOU helped to promote and establish to get rid of NWO resisters (Christians like myself included) under martial law, I stand to be hurt or killed in some day. The Noahide Laws YOU signed, knowing they would be used to someday behead millions of Christians in America, also apply to ME and my tender neck as well! The NWO your Bush Illuminati bloodline has supported throughout the years, plans to destroy Christians like ME in the future.

But in spite of all this, I WANT YOU TO KNOW, I choose to love and forgive you, and continue to pray for YOUR salvation. 

You see...if I die, I spend eternity with Almighty God my heavenly Father....I die a forgiven person! But dear, if YOU die, you have no such forgiveness or hope...UNLESS YOU RECEIVE GOD'S MERCY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST! 

And this is all I want for you and your entire Bush family. Period. Forgiveness...peace with God...eternal life...deliverance from all the false promises and lies of Lucifer, corrupt father of the Illuminati bloodlines of the earth. Oh, what power and love and mercy the ONE TRUE AND LIVING GOD OF ALL CREATION has to give to you and ALL your family, in the day you all repent and turn to God with all your hearts and receive His salvation through Jesus Christ His Son!

I continue to pray for you and your health and salvation daily. I wish I could be at your bedside to pray for you and share God's wonderful love with you personally. But prayer knows no distance! And The moment you reach out to God for His mercy and salvation, HE IS THERE! Jesus has the power to heal you COMPLETELY as well.

May God graciously forgive, receive and save the entire Bush family.

Your friend, Pamela Rae Schuffert

Reflections on Celebrating a Holy Christmas Season


By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-
The following article outlines why I can never agree with people who claim to be Christians, but who then do not want to celebrate the birth of the Son of God and Savior of the world come to earth. I respect their right to disagree with me, and I understand their reasons behind this. But I have come to a totally different conclusion, and here is WHY...

Yes, of course I have done my research on this subject of the history of celebrating Christmas on December 25 (and the Orthodox Church a week later.)I realize that there are many articles out debunking "Christmas" and attempting to attribute all of the Christian celebration at this time of the year, to customs adapted from pre-Christian pagan customs.

There are those Christians who, having read such articles, no longer even take the time to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, neither at Christmas time or any other time of the year.

However, I wonder how many Christians realize that many of these articles actually originate from Christ-hating organizations and even pagans themselves, who hate the Christians celebration of the coming of the Son of God to this world. Such people will do anything to obliterate the name of JESUS CHRIST and His remembrance from the face of the world! And sadly, to eliminate His followers from the world scene as well.

The ACLU is notorious for this in America today. Some Jewish groups also work hard to discourage Christian celebration publicly of the birth of Jesus Christ. Sadly, such groups will attempt to use every tactic to remove the very remembrance of Jesus Christ from society today.

http://beforeitsnews.com/strange/2012/12/society-gripped-by-christ-hating-cult-2446160.html

There is an old expression, "don't throw out the baby with the bath water!" I would like to add to that my own version, "Don't throw out celebrating 'Jesus Christ come to earth' along with pagan traditions commonly associated with Winter Solstice." Don't throw out the Baby Jesus with the bathwater!

Pre-Christian cultures frequently had ceremonies and rituals celebrating the darkest time of the year, Winter Solstice. And there remains those who refuse to embrace Jesus as Lord and continue to follow such abominable practices to this very day. Such practices include cruel human sacrifice and devil worship...sin that Jesus Christ came to utterly obliterate from the world!
Although we may never know the date on which Jesus was born into this world, it is very appropriate to designate a time in which to honor His coming, and to rejoice and let the world know "JESUS CHRIST IS LORD" and "JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!"

I personally find it very appropriate to celebrate the birth of the Light of the World, at the darkest time of the year annually, Winter Solstice. "I Am the light of the world..."declared Jesus the Christ to His followers. Jesus Christ came to dispel the darkness and sin of this world, to bring an end to dark pagan beliefs, and to replace the darkness with the LIGHT OF LIFE. 

Typically, in the pre-Christian era, solstice was the darkest time of the year, and celebrated by pagan cults such as the Druids, with horrific human sacrifice rituals. It was a time of death. Sadly, for those who refuse to be liberated from the darkness and continue in satanism and the occult, winter Solstice remains a time of horror and death, as satan is worshiped by his followers with human sacrifice victims to this very day. Jesus Christ was sent in to the world to change all of this.

However, for true Christians, this can be a special time of the year for Christians to shine forth His love and light throughout the world, and to spend much time in prayer against all abominable occult practices and the activities of those who continue to REJECT the light of the world and choose to follow an abomination instead. 

Spreading the light of His love throughout the world

This is a time to meditate on the meaning of "Jesus, the Light of the World,"
and how WE His followers are commanded to shine forth His light, reaching into the uttermost corners of this dark world today. Thank God for missionaries who do just that!


The Bible declares that "Jesus Christ was manifested to DESTROY the works of the devil." The light of Jesus Christ is meant to destroy the darkness in the world created by satan and sinners alike, and to set the lost sinner free. Jesus came to liberate this world from the darkness! 

Therefore, how appropriate to glorify and honor Jesus Christ near the time of winter solstice, as the holy Destroyer of the darkness and subsequent Liberator of mankind from that terrible darkness.

I choose to celebrate Jesus Christ's first coming to this world at this time of the year, in a way that glorifies Him and ministers life to others. I have no pagan customs I observe at this season...no "yule log" to burn....no disgusting worldly figure called "Santa"  who steals the attention from children at this holy season (how God hates that which is a lie and steals the glory and attention from HIM!)

I have studied pagan and occult customs associated with winter solstice season, and none of those rituals are ever a part of my celebration of Jesus' birth. These are all a part of pre-Christian pagan customs that have no place in the life of a Christian. 

None of my Christian associates practice pre-Christian pagan customs, either, when they celebrate the birth of Jesus at this time of the year. Many of their churches glorify Jesus with special music presentations or plays glorifying God and presenting Jesus to their communities. This is well pleasing to God, and brings joy to the heart of Jesus Christ as well! Whenever God is glorified and Jesus Christ is preached, including at Christmastime, the will of God is being done on earth.
Yes, I enjoy beautiful coniferous evergreens at this time of the year, because I love the smell of this delightful creation of God. It's delightful  aroma invigorates me! There is nothing pagan or unholy about God's creation, the evergreen tree. 

Rather, it is what mankind does with God's creation that either sanctifies it or renders it unholy. When a pagan takes a tree and turns it into an abominable idol, that poor tree is then defiled. But when a Christian takes God's creation and uses it for His glory and to remind them of His Son and His gift, this becomes pleasing to God.

Biblical symbolism can be seen throughout God's wonderful creation, just as God intended. At Passover/Resurrection time, people bring the lily in their homes to symbolize Jesus and His resurrection. 

For me, the evergreen tree serves as a reminder of Jesus the bringer of EVERLASTING LIFE.

While other deciduous trees appear dead for all practical purposes in the middle of winter, stripped of their once green leaves, the exuberant coniferous EVERGREEN TREE appears living and vibrant, it's sturdy green needles filled with life and exuding that invigorating coniferous scent that thrills our senses. 
 And for me, it is also a symbol of THE TREE upon which Jesus Christ suffered and died to bring life to the world. The Bible states, "Cursed is everyone who hangs upon a tree." Jesus died on A TREE, hanging there for YOUR sins and mine. he became a curse for us, that we night receive ETERNAL LIFE!

As the Apostle Paul stated in Holy Scriptures, to the pure, all things are pure. It is what we do with God's creation that either sanctifies it or renders it defiled and sinful.

None of my born-again Christian friends who celebrate the birth of the Son of God, have pagan practices in their celebrations, either. Rather, they are busy ministering in His Name to the homeless and the hungry, showing Christ's love in many wonderful ways to a lost and perishing world today. They are spending time in prayer for the salvation of many. 

Last Christmas season, I even dared to brave the cold in Montana and rang bells for SALVATION ARMY. And yes, they DO use their funds to clothe and feed the homeless and destitute and to preach the Gospel. Their winter clothing saved me from freezing one winter in Montana, in fact. Their outreach continues to this day to touch the lives of millions of people in need.

God is always pleased when His children seek to glorify Him and magnify His Son to the world, openly and publicly. God is pleased when His people sing songs of praise to Him, glorifying the coming of the son of God to earth. God cannot never be displeased with a true and holy CHRISTIAN CHRISTMAS season of honoring Him and His dear Son!

Therefore, it is utterly appropriate to choose a special day of the year, in which to celebrate both publicly and privately in our homes the birth of the LIGHT OF THE WORLD, Jesus Christ. 

We show honor to earthly beings of note and fame by setting aside their birthdays with which to remember them. How much more should we do so for the Son of God and Savior of the world?

However, I will admit that I personally have zero tolerance for what the business world has cleverly created to promote their disgusting materialism for the Christmas season, "Santa Claus." 

Historically, Saint Nicholas was a fine Christian and considered to be a saint. As time went on, his name was reduced to "Santa Claus," an abbreviated form of SAINT NICHOLAS. And of course, big business just HAD to seize upon this traditional figure representing kindness and giving gifts, and turn it into a secular figure to promote materialism and selling/buying at Christmastime.

"SANTA CLAUS" of today has sadly evolved into what must be an abomination in the sight of Almighty God. His word declares that mankind shall have no other gods before HIM. 
When the divine attributes of God and Jesus Christ are wrongfully attributed to what has became a mythical personality, it becomes idolatry. The "Santa Claus" figure of today is essentially A LIE. Isn't it interesting that Jesus Christ declared that ALL IDOLATERS and ALL LIARS shall have their part in the lake of fire someday? The evolution of the "Santa Claus figure" of today, and how children are sadly led to "believe in Santa" represents both A LIE and IDOLATRY.

One popular Christmas song, "Santa Claus is Coming to Town, " attributes to this mythical figure the divine attributes of OMNISCIENCE: "He sees you when you're sleeping...he knows when you're awake...he knows if you've been bad or good....Santa Claus is coming!"

Yet only Almighty God has this divine ability! And the power to eternally reward the good and punish the disobedient.

ALMIGHTY GOD is that true eternal GIFT GIVER! He alone knows if we have been "naughty or nice." Beware of "Santa the deception" and usurper of the glory, attention, and the attributes to Almighty God alone during the Christmas season!

One teacher shared in my Bible college one year, a disturbing account about his granddaughter at Christmastime. She said to him, "Mommy told me Santa is just pretend...not real. Does that mean that JESUS is pretend and not real too???" 

How can small children discern the truth about Jesus Christ, if parents lie to them about Santa Claus and HIS alleged magical or "divine" attributes???

Again, does not the Bible teach that "...and ALL LIARS shall have their part in the lake of fire"? We need to believe the word of God, and act on it! 

The focus of Christian families and children at Christmas time (and ALWAYS)should be upon JESUS CHRIST, God's greatest gift to the world. 

"For God so loved the world that HE GAVE His only begotten Son..."

And Jesus Christ remains the GIVER of eternal life and eternal gifts and graces that can never be taken away. HE is what TRUE CHRISTMAS is all about forevermore!

Satan himself is behind the "Santa" deception. Re-arrange the letters to "SANTA" ...and what do you have? SATAN!

The Communists like this "Santa" deception too. Whenever godless Communists take over any nation, they immediately seek to replace Christian holidays ("Holy days") with secular celebrations mimicking them, BUT deliberately leaving out God and Jesus Christ, and inserting a secular figure in the place of Jesus. 

Sure, the Communists will let people celebrate at that time or their religious holidays, but ONLY with secular traditions and symbols replacing the religious. And this is exactly what America's communists and Christ-haters have been working hard to do for decades, non-stop, behind the scenes. 


Don't fall for it! Take the time to celebrate a holy, 
God-glorifying Christmas 
by magnifying Jesus Christ, 
"the REASON for the SEASON!" 
Let us all go forth at this time and shed His light and His love in your world around us. 

Take the time to share God's salvation plan with the lost. Pray for the sick. 
Comfort those who are suffering. 
Help feed the hungry and the homeless. 
Let us worship the Living God 
in our places of Christian fellowship, 
and thank Him for sending 
His Son to this world!
And as you follow in the footsteps of Jesus Christ, manifesting His love and truth, 
you WILL then enjoy a very blessed, 
Holy Christmas Season!

-God's richest blessings to you ALL, 
both at this holy Christmas season 
and always, 
through 
Jesus Christ His Son.
