Who needs to get out and what do they need to get out of?
It used to be that when we celebrated Christmas, Jesus was the center of our homes.
People used to greet with others something like, " Merry Christmas."
The Nativity were put up in town squares.
And then it happened.
Christmas in the home was no longer important as to its real reason in why we celebrate it.
Someone didn't like someone saying, "Merry Christmas" and wanted greetings to change to something like, "Happy Holidays." And others joined their bandwagon.
Nativity Scenes that were put up in the town squares were objected to and many were no longer put up. Some Nativities have actually been torn down.
And you know what?
Instead of just changing individual celebrations, these people got out and wanted everyone to change their celebrations, so they made it known that they wanted things to change. They didn't want to see anything about Jesus in anyone's celebrations.
Of course, we know where the ousting of Jesus' birth came from.
Satan had been trying from the beginning of time to destroy all that had to do with Him.
And planting this idea within the minds of people in our celebrations has had a huge effect.
If those people want to leave Jesus out of their own celebrations, that is their right.
But I say, "Get the heck out of my celebrations." Because Christmas isn't Christmas without including our Savior, Jesus Christ.
What say You?
Thanks for coming by today, Friends. I truly do hope you have a very Merry and Blessed Christmas this year.
Even though it's just a little early.
