Speaker 1 (00:24):
Alright, alright, alright, hello, hi and howdy. This is your
man's JK. Moore, welcoming you back to breaking tradition. So
tonight we are actually gonna be talking about a tradition
that was already broken one time before in a matter
so to speak. So not wanting to take too much time,
(00:46):
let's go and jump right into it. So if you
all will put down that cup of egg nog and
those cookies, okay, go ahead, hop on in, click on
that seatbelt, lean that seed back, kick your feet up,
and let's take this ride together as we talk about
how celebrating Christmas in the United States used to actually
be illegal, and if you had some people over on YouTube,
(01:08):
they would say yeah, and they should go back to
being illegal. But now that's neither here nor there. So
we are going to jump into this and I'm just
going to make that full screen.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
So this is from the book Legends, Lies and Cherished
Myths of America by Richard Chinkman. And Christmas used to
be illegal. Of all holidays, Christmas loan's largest on the
national calendar, but it hasn't always been in this position.
Until the Civil War, Christmas was but scantly observed.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, so let's go ahead and stop it right there.
Until the Civil War, Christmas was but scantily observed. Now
he's gonna touch over the reason why that was, but
started right off, you know, right off the top by
saying this was not always ay that was celebrated and
or legal in the original colonies of the United States.
(02:08):
So for everybody that that you know, things that the
celebration of this day is.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Such a big you know us tradition wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
And we're going to get into some more or the
down the video here, Jeremiah, he's going to get into
some more of the reasons why it's not long video.
So and then after that, of course we're going to
jump right into some scriptures that just reinforce what we're
going over here.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Most shockingly, retailers hardly seem to take notice of the occasion.
Historians report that the pages of the New York Tribune
in eighteen forty one did not contain a single example
of advertising with the Christmas theme. It wasn't until after
the Civil War that retailers began experimenting with special Christmas sales.
And we know that during the Civil Wars, when schools
(02:57):
came about too because nationals our state sovereignty got taken
over an industry began to reign supreme.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Those Wow, so that's interesting, y'all. Look at the date right.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Here, eighteen forty one.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
That is in the Grand Scheme of Things, That really
isn't all that far back. I mean, we're just very
matter of fact, we're about going to what the twenty
fifth year of the year two thousand, So this was
not that long ago. And it's interesting they even start
to send us off on right here. Most shockingly, retailers
(03:36):
hardly seen to take notice of the occasion. So in
other words, yeah, it hadn't become the cash cow that
we know it as today. So yeah, eighteen forty one,
that honestly is not, like I said, in the Grand
Scheme of Things, that's really not that long ago.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
The things go hand in hand. Once they did, however,
it didn't take long for them to discover the commercial
problem disability is offered by the holiday. By eighteen seventy,
December had become the merchant's single largest selling month of
the year. And we know that's what Christmas is about.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Has nothing to do with Jesus Christ. There's nothing in
the Bible about it.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Wow, Wow, y'all heard my man say.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah, that's what Christmas or let's let's put a more
specific point on it. That's what Christmas in the United
States is really all about. It's about that chi ching okay,
selling of trees and decorations and clothes and then I
mean literally just everything across the spectrum. Okay, because, like
(04:46):
any good corporate entity, once they saw that there was
not only money to be made from this thing, but
recurring money in other words, every year, money to be made.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Oh yeah, it was.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
A wrap then, and he saw my retailers. Of course,
you know, it didn't just stop with the stores once
Hollywood got wind of this and got a little taste stuff.
But what I mean, which makes sense, because it's the
retailers who those commercials you see for whatever, dog food
or I don't know, laundry.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Detergent, this show, whatever it is you use. Yet those
are retailers.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
They pay a portion of that production to be done,
whether it's TV or even movies, they paid for a
portion of that production.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Oh sorry about that, y'all. I thought I had the
phone off. Do that right quick, But.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah, these retailers pay a portion of that which is
why you see their product show up or you see
their commercials run during the TV program. So yeah, the
retailers Hollywood hand in hand. Once they knew that there
was recurring money to be made from this thing, it
was on and popping. But most importantly, my man said
(05:58):
what I and many other believers out there say every
year around, during and even after this time, Christmas has
absolutely no biblical bearing whatsoever. There is nowhere in there
where it's mentioned that December twenty fifth is the day
(06:22):
the birth of Jesus. There is nowhere in scripture where
we see Jesus or even his apostles after him, celebrating
that day as his birth. So why, going into the
twenty fifth year of the twenty first century are so
many churches Christian religious organizations still out there pumping this
(06:47):
crap to people straight up lying to him about what
that day means.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
As far as us as.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Believers, it means nothing, absolutely nothing.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Now it meant something, and it means something.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
To the cultures who created today, the peoples from different
parts of what we know is England, the Germanic contributions
to the Mule contributions, and probably the biggest and most
recognizable contribution to forming this day and what it was.
The Roman contributions with their celebrations of Saturnawya, all the
(07:29):
all those things put together completely outside of the United States.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
The only thing that the that.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
This country offered to the tradition and the celebration of
Christmas was monetizing the living crap out of it. Okay, yeah,
that's what they contributed. But okay, for those of us
who know, who know, we know, like my man said,
this hass not biblical, has nothing to do with the
birth of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Mass is Roman Catholicism, where they believe that through transubstantiation
that crackers are great. By pronouncing the words harkers corpus,
the anthee becomes literal body blood of Jesus Christ, which
is cannibalism. Christmas had not, by the way, always been
regarded as a proper time for celebration. In the seventeenth century,
this holiday, which was to become so American, was widely
(08:16):
regarded in New England as an unappealing Popish import Roman Catholicism.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
See my man said it right there. Can't remember which
episode it is of breaking tradition, but I have an episode.
Matter of fact, I didn't do it last year, so
it must have been year before last.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I have action, and this excuse me. I actually remember
what it was called.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I called it Season's Breakings, where I talked about the
exact same thing that my man right here is talking about.
I give the origins of that day and how when
it comes to people of God, and how it was perpetuated.
How I made his way all away from Italy Rome,
(09:00):
all across Europe, because like I said, there were different
European societies that contributed a little bit here, a little
bit there, okay, swept across Europe and then made its
way across the Atlantic Ocean and landed here in what
we now call the United States of America. Very interesting,
and my man said, the early European colonizers did not
(09:24):
recognize that they called and get a Popish import in
other words, because remember real skin history lesson here. Those
Europeans that left Europe and came and colonized what we
called the United States were Protestants.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
In other words, they were protesting.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Against Roman Catholicism and the whole Roman system as it
came to religion and as it came to the governmental
hold that the Roman Catholic system had over Europe at
that time.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Okay, part of the.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Reason that, like, well, this is a scant history as
many anyway, those Protestants knew and recognized the celebration of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
For exactly what it was.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Those from again, the Germanic, Germanic and Nordic regions and cultures,
they recognized the Yule celebration of spirits and pagan deities,
not God, not God the Father, definitely not Jesus the Christ.
And those who had been under the direct influence of
(10:38):
Rome who knew about Saturn Nahia and those celebrations again,
Saturn Nawia, take away the alia at the end of that,
what you left with Saturn one of the Roman gods
of feasts and festivals and celebration of renewal, time of harvest.
So again they knew, okay, yeah, might have been the
(11:00):
celebration of spirits and gods, but not God the Father
and not his son Jesus the Christ. So they had
absolutely nothing to do with it. They knew this thing
was a mishmash of these different pagan beliefs and traditions,
and knew that Jesus's name had been fraudulently added to
(11:24):
it in order to aid make it more palpable to people.
It was a brilliant strategic move by the Emperor Constantine
because it was a way that his Roman citizens could
still participate.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
In the.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I was the word, I'm looking for traditions of Saturnawia.
But now, oh, we'll just say that this was also
the birth of the Savior of Jesus Christ, so they
could do it under that blanket. So that way, in
other words, everybody would be happy. Oh wow, this is
the birthday of Jesus. Well, clearly we must celebrate it.
(12:03):
Clearly we must celebrate it with these ancient pagan practices
and traditions. Makes absolutely no sense. But again the Protestants, now,
don't get me wrong, I'm not you know, giving these
people a nice little pat on the head, like, oh
you guys were so awesome. No, no, no, notice how
(12:25):
hyper her you purposely called them colonizers. But even within that,
they were smart enough, and they at least had enough
God in them to know to recognize Christmas for what
it was, paganism and nothing to do with true worship
of God the Father, God the Son.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
And it was definitely not inspired by God, the Holy ghost.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
All right, nothing, dude, Christianity at all, that says.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Well, I'm just the one point I disagree with him on.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
No, it is a purely Christian invention that there's no
difference between Roman Catholicism and Christianity. If you go back
and look at all the denominations of Christianity, they are
are there are They're all offshoots of Roman Catholicism form
of Christianity.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
So yeah, don't necessarily agree with that.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
But anyway, Saturnalia, the leaders of the Massachusetts Bace Colony
so disdained Christmas that in sixteen fifty nine they passed
a law against celebrating the holiday.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Wow. Oh no, let me leve them finish that question.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Anybody who is found observing it by abstinence from labor, feacing,
or any other way.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
They passed a law against celebrating the holiday, punishing anybody
who is found observing it by abstinence from labor, in
other words.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
A day off which still do.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Feasting or any other way, which, of course people still do.
Christmas dinners, Christmas travel, Christmas everything. So yes, people, it
was a illegal time to celebrate, punishable by law.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
The law was repealed. Twenty five years later, but the
prejudice against Christmas remained strong.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Wow, So the law was repealed twenty five years later,
and there is absolutely zero, zero doubts in my mind
that that was all by persuasion and coercion of the
retailers and the corporations who had saw what a cash
(14:56):
cow of this thing was, y'all did nothing happens in
politics these.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Days, okay.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Whoever has the most money is the one who gets
the ear of the politician, and the politicians simply becomes
a puppet on their strengths, either passing or repealing and
doing the way with any law that that you know,
(15:25):
would guarantee that that contributor continues to make the money
that they want, whether it be.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Legally or illegally.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
So yeah, that twenty five year band, even though it
said there was still strong presidents against the celebration of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Okay. In the end, just like with anything else in
this country, money talks.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Judge Samuelsol was happy to report in his diary in
sixteen eighty five that he didn't see anybody celebrating the holiday.
They holy day. It's an unholy day. Holiday means holy day.
This is certainly not a holy day, and the Bible
says we're not supposed to reverence times and seasons and holidays,
(16:13):
and so.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
That's right now.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I already know right away because I've had this conversation before.
People who hear that that scripture they're gonna pull out.
You know what I'm saying, let me keep it nice
and PG that scripture that they're going to refer to,
that scripture from Paul. We are not supposed to judge
people based off their celebration of holy days and new
(16:35):
moons and blah blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, they're
absolutely right. We're not supposed to judge people on anything.
We are all humans. We're not in a position to
judge anything. Having said that, just because we aren't to judge,
we are to teach and show people the right way.
(16:56):
That's a commandment straight from the mouth of Jesus speaking
of which go out into the world, teaching and showing
them all things that I commanded you. Circles right back
around to what I said at the beginning. Do we
see anywhere in scripture where Jesus or the apostles celebrated
(17:17):
in any version of this day Christmas sothernnahia.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Yule, any of it.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
No, neither did he command them to teach the celebration
of these days. So yep, you're absolutely right. Don't judge
people on anything. We are not in a position to judge.
But if the opportunity and the time comes up, to
tell them the truth about this day, especially those who
(17:45):
are still unfortunately under the bondage of that religious spirit
and under the bondage of ignorance, thinking that this day,
December twenty fifth, is the birth of Christ and we
are the celebrated. Oh no, no, no, by godly, by
Messianic command, you have every right to go in there
(18:09):
in love and tell people the truth and tell them, no,
it is not. And if you happen to have this
information available about the real orientes of it, simply show
them why it's not. Or if not, you got a
Bible available, tell them. Can you find me any reference
you got your phone? Okay, go to Google, go to Being,
(18:31):
go to whatever the one is for Microsoft Explore or whatever.
Go to Firefox, type it in. Is there with what
day was Jesus born? Is there anywhere in the Bible
that commands us to celebrate Christmas.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
The answer is going to be the same. It's not.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
The day he was born is not in there. And no,
there is no biblical director to tell us to celebrate Christmas.
All right, leven, live them, finish up. It's only a
few minutes left.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Stuff like that. So of all our folk heroes, Santa
Claus is probably the most familiar and the most misunderstood.
To begin with, the name is strictly the Americanism. In Europe,
he was known for centuries as Saint Nicholas. The change
occurred when the Dutch spelling his name Sint nic Coolas,
(19:19):
imported Nicholas to America. Somewhere along the way, the name
became Center Claus and finally Santa Claus. More surprisingly, Santa
Claus didn't always arrive at Christmas. In Europe, he showed
up on December sixth, as he did in the early years.
In America. He became specifically associated with Christmas only when
Americans of British ancestry adopted him from the Dutch.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
See all these different cultures that contributed to this whole
Christmas machine that's observed in the United States today.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Derk Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Even Santa Claus originally was not tied to that date.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Six and.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Naming him of Santa Claus again is not even something
based in the United States, just heard of a man.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
It comes from the Dutch. That's why I said.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Different European civilizations, the English, the Celtic, the Germanic. Okay,
the Dutch people from Denmark, which falls very much in
with that Nordic Germanic culture and countries of people. See
just little pieces here there. There's even some Middle Eastern
(20:36):
born traditions near that time that managed to sneak their
way a little bit in there. So just little bits
and pieces here and there, you know, all finally topped
off with some good old American greed.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Well, it's interesting, of all, Saint Santa Claus didn't always
look the way he does now. The Dutch made him
out to look like Fredes there, thin, tall and dignified.
Later in the early eighteen hundreds, Washington Irving imagined Santa
as a bulky man who smoked the pipe and wore
baggy pens and a drawing in Harper's Weekly in eighteen
(21:20):
fifty eight he doesn't even have a beard. Not until
the Civil War did they begin to look the way
we think he should thanks to a cartoon drawn by
Thomas Nast. Santa hasn't changed much since then, but he
got Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer only at nineteen thirty nine,
when Montgomery Ward came up with this idea. So we say,
(21:41):
it's all just a bunch of made up fooie. So anyways,
I hope y'all enjoy this all.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Right, by yo?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
And my man was one hundred percent on the money. Okay,
all just a bunch of made of food, every last
bit of it. I didn't know that part about Rudolph. Okay,
nineteen thirty nine. Up again, y'all barely what seventy some
years ago almost, But just like with everything else, dealing
(22:16):
with Christmas is now so ingrained with Christmas.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
And hey, I can't even lie.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I forget the name of the production company that made it.
I think it's ranking best. But that claymation, stop motion
Rudolph cartoon with Yukon Cordnelias and all the minute, love it,
love it. It became a childhood favorite. And with all the
other stuff that I decorate my office with here, I
(22:45):
used to have a Yukon Coordinaias. Can't find that little
joker but hey, when I do, I'm honest not to
admit to you. All right now, he's gonna be post
up probably down there below Batman, I mean, right next
to Batman, or maybe on the second show, right beside
Harley Quinn. I don't know, but I'm gonna find a
space for him somewhere. So but yeah, so hey, as
(23:10):
you can see, my man was right on it, Christmas
is a not an American made they be has nothing
to do with the birth or the worshiping or even
the accepting of Jesus to Christ or God the Father.
But it was and is a mishmash of different European
(23:34):
with just a taste of Middle Eastern pagan traditions all
brought together, and it very recently in the grand scheme
of the original colonies which then became the entire United States.
From that point now, I mean, it's still, like I said,
(23:58):
not really that that long ago that it was fully
made legal to be able to outwardly celebrate this day,
because oh main, no mistake, people did. Still they did
still celebrate it. They just didn't do it openly, and
as not frequently trying to use big words there, they
(24:22):
didn't do it as openly as people are allowed to
do it now. Okay, it was something like a dirty
little secret. Okay, it was done behind closed doors, and
you didn't make a big announcement that you were having
a Christmas party or whatever.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Jobs I mean he went back then.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Okay, it's not like you could hop on the telephone
and call up people and let him know anyway. You know,
it's kind of passed by word of mouth to certain people. Hey,
you know what I'm saying, we're gonna do this, keep it.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
On a loan. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
We ain't trying to get fined or put in prison
or whatever. So yeah, you know, just like that. But
as always got to bring it back around to some
script y'all. Y'all know it, you know it. So again
we've already established there's nothing in the Bible that endorses
(25:11):
the celebration of Christmas. But there are a few things. No, actually,
there's more than a few things in the Bible that
lets us know, hey, when it comes to this day
and any of these other days rooted in paganism, Halloween, Easter,
or rooted in lives Thanksgiving, Okay, yeah, no, just don't
(25:34):
do it, Okay, all right, so we are going to
start the scripture off tonight. Well, speaking of Roman Catholicism,
we're actually gonna start in the Book of Romans, chapter twelve,
verse number one and two. Go to Romans chapter twelve,
(25:54):
Versus one and two and let me get that logo
there and wait, Dot don't want to block any of this,
and we will put a quick pause for the cause.
For those of you all who will be following along,
(26:15):
excuse me. Romans chapter twelve, Versus one and two, and
it reads the title of this section is a living
sacrifice to God. And so, dear brothers and sisters, I
plead with you to give your bodies to God because
(26:37):
of all He has done for you. Let them be
a living and holy sacrifice, the kind He will find acceptable.
This is truly the way to worship him. Don't copy
the behavior and customs of this world. But let God
transform you into a new person by changing the way
(26:58):
you think. Then you will learn to know God's will
for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Okay, it says it right here in verse number two.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Don't copy the behaviors and customs of this world, the
customs the traditions that originated and that led to what
we now know is Christmas. Those things predate Christianity by
hundreds of not thousands of years, so there's no way
(27:38):
any person of God can say with any truthfulness.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
In them whatsoever that.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Oh no, it was originally a holy day and the
devil took it and made a mockery. No, no, no, sir, no, ma'am.
You can stop them lies right now. Just no. No,
Christianity actually took these pagan customs in days and made
(28:05):
a mockery of them as far as the Pagans are
concerned by painting Jesus's face all over them, No, it
is actually the other way around. Satan did not take nothing,
all right, that God dog. They already belonged to them.
So no, don't copy the behavior and customs of this world.
(28:29):
Let God transform you into a new person by changing
the way you think, now, y'all.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
I'm not crazy, I ain't deluded.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Like I said, I have this conversation this time every
single year. Some people allow the Holy Spirit to work
in them, so they'll cut it out, but most don't,
not really expecting them to. And truthfully, to be completely
honest with John, don't rightly care I mean, that's something
(29:03):
that you have to work out between you and God.
I don't control that. Like I tell you guys all
the time, I am merely a presenter. I present the information.
What you choose to do with it is completely up
to you and God. Then you will learn to know
God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and
(29:25):
perfect and not daring. Not thinking that I'm bad or
bold enough to speak for God, I am quite sure
that His will for us that are called, you know
by his name, that claimed his son as our savior,
is not for us to continue living in and spreading
(29:47):
the lie that Christmas has anything to do with the birth.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Of his son. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
That that is not good, nor pleasing, nor perfect. It's
just it's the complete opposite of all.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
This is a lie.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
All right, Let's go next to the Book of June,
starting in chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen. The
Book of John, chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen.
And while I'm waiting for y'all to get there, you
know what, I think, I'm gonna use this handset a.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Little more often.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
If any of y'all notice my posturing is different, because
usually I don't use a handset. I use my stand
up microphone sometimes in the videos you can see it
right in front of All the times, I position the
camera where you can't, so I have to sit up
with which honestly is better for my back.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Really shouldn't be leaning like this, but I ain't gonna lie.
I'm enjoying leaning like this.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Yeah, buddy, might use the old headphones more often. But anyway,
John chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen, and it reads,
now I am coming to you. I told them many
things while I was with them in this world so
(31:10):
they would be filled with my joy. I have given
them your word, and the world hates them because they
do not belong to the world, just as I do
not belong to the world. By the way, y'all, this
is Jesus the Christ talking here, okay. And I put
(31:33):
this in here because the point I try to make
too believers is the things that are truly of God.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
The world, which.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Is just another term for those who are outside of God,
outside of God's will, outside of even believing in God. Okay,
that they're the world as the Bible describes them.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Sometimes I said the.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Fact that the world world celebrates this same day as
believers in God. I said that right there, ought to
tell y'all there's something not right here.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I said.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
These people don't care about or celebrate anything else pertaining
to God or Jesus or any of our belief system.
But different countries, different cultures, different ethnicities around the world
celebrate Christmas or their version of it, just as believers
(32:34):
in God do. Like I said that right now to
show y'all there's something wrong.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
With this, because, as Jesus just.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Said right here in verse fourteen, the world hates them
because they do not belong to the world, just as
I do not belong to the world.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Those of us who.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Believe in Jesus have been washed clean by his blood,
we do not belong to the world now.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Of a truth, Yeah, it takes time.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
To get that stuff that is ungodly out of our
system for most of us. Hey, for some people, a
miracle happens, that happens immediately, but the plain truth is okay.
For most people, it don't happen immediately. It takes some
time for them to work it out, to get it
out of their system. To thank the Holy Spirit that
it is being worked out out of their system. And
(33:35):
when we do truly strive to live a life for
God after being saved by Jesus. And we tell family
members and friends and co workers and neighbors, Hey, yeah,
that thing I used to readily do with y'all, I
can't do it anymore.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Now.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
I'm not judging you, Remember I said earlier, we are
in no position to judge, not suppose anyway. No, I'm
not judging. I'm not saying you're a evil, bad person.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I mean, heck, no, I.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Can still talk to you still, laugh, cut up, hang
or whatever. Just certain things that I used to do
with you. Yet no, I can't do that anymore because
they're no longer of this world. Don't belong to this world.
Jesus didn't belong to this world, But yet the world
unites in this time of year to celebrate his so
(34:27):
called birth. Nah nah nah, See how.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
That don't even sound right? Okay, Firse number fifteen.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm not asking you to take them out of the world,
but to keep them safe from the evil. And we
know the ether one is Satan. Oops, ain't first number sixteen.
They do not belong to this world anymore than I do.
(34:57):
Make them holy by your truth, teach them your word,
which is truth. Jesus is the word. Jesus also said,
I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. And
(35:19):
just think about it, y'all. What can be more of
a slap and an affront to the originator, the source
of truth than a day which so many of his
believers and followers celebrate as his birthday with no historical
(35:42):
or biblical.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
Evidence to back this up. It is a lie.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
So what can be what's the most hurtful and biggest
affront and slap in the face.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
To the source of true truth?
Speaker 1 (36:02):
A lie, one of the biggest lines created and perpetrated
by those who claim that they love and accept him
as their savior still to this day and to many, many,
many more Christmases, until this same source of truth, who's
(36:23):
talking to here? Jesus comes back and finally tells them, Hey,
Genus is see me here?
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Now, I'm here amongst you talking.
Speaker 1 (36:34):
That day was not my birth Where did you all
get that from? Beside your own evil imaginations? And boy,
God helped constantine the Roman papacy system around during that
century who got together and conspired to create that lie?
Speaker 3 (36:53):
God help them.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
All we can do is hope before all them dudes
passed away and into eternity, that they truly went to
God with truly repenting hearts, and asked.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Them to forgive them for that, because if not.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
Nobody, but yeah, the word Jesus, Jesus, the word Jesus,
the truth, the way, and the life. Make them holy
by your truth, Jesus. Teach them your word, Jesus, which
is truth, Jesus. Just as you sent me into the world,
(37:35):
I am sending them into the world, and I give
myself as a holy sacrifice for them so they can
be made holy by your truth. We should not and
cannot expect those who want nothing to do with God
or Jesus or walking and living by the Kingdom standing
(38:00):
that God and Jesus said, Oh, okay, it's almost idiotic
to expect them to live by this truth and to
not believe that it's the birth of Christ. However, having
said that, more often than not, it's those same people
(38:22):
who I have conversations with that no flat out that
December twenty fifth is not Christ's birthday and has nothing
to do with his birth, y'all. It trips me out
when I have these talks with people from either other
religions or people who are atheists, which don't believe in
(38:43):
any type of God or spirituality or any of.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
That that no more.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
And have a deeper understanding of God's kingdom, God's principle,
God's Word than so some of these people who go
running to those buildings every Sunday with the cross on
top of them for the past forty years. They go
(39:11):
in not knowing nothing, and they come right back out
still not knowing nothing.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
It amazes me. It amazes me.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
That people who don't believe, want nothing to do with
God or Jesus have a better deeper understanding of who
Jesus was, is, what he did, what.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
He said, what he commanded.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Then people who week in and week out go run
into Bible study and choir practice and Sunday school and
Sunday service than the night's service, than the we're going
over here for the revival service.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
Amazing. That's literally the only word I can think of. Amazing.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
Those who should know the Word and the truth a
lot of times are found lacking. But those who don't
believe in it have a better understanding. And not all
of them, of course, not all of them. As matter
of fact, some of those who don't believe in it,
have a way better and deeper understanding of that same
(40:27):
word and truth. Now, as the saying goes, make that
make sense? God, I can't. All right, just keep it moving, okay.
So now let's flip on back to the Old Testament
Book of Proverbs, chapter four, verses five through seven. So,
(40:51):
Book of Proverbs, chapter four, versus five through seven. So
Jesus said, teach them your truth. They have to be
here in the world, but protect them while they're in
the world. Let them live in your word, which is
(41:12):
the truth. So now let's go home back to Proverbs
chapter four, verses five through seven. All right, and it reads,
(41:34):
get wisdom, develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or
turn away from them. Don't turn your back on wisdom,
for she will protect you. Love her and she will
guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do.
(41:55):
And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. Again, not
talking about judging people. Oh, you going to hell a rhythm. No,
that's not what It's talking about good decision making based
off the facts and the information you have before you,
or in other words, wisdom. Get wisdom just because you've
(42:20):
been taught by whatever guardians you grew up in a
house with. And just because you were told this that
December twenty fifth is the Savior's birthday by whatever person
was standing behind that poolpit. Okay, they're humans, just like
you are. What you think, just because they're dressed in
(42:44):
a robe and they're standing up in a poolpit, that
automatically means they're telling you the truth, unadulterated, unabadd truth,
the uncut truths. Because you see people thinking and giving
(43:06):
them all types of kudos and praise or whatever. Okay,
they're not God and they're not Jesus. Yeah, they have
certain voice inflections and certain things they do to entertain you,
to make it sound good. Whatever they're telling you, they
don't necessarily mean it's the truth and for and of
(43:27):
you all that's been listening to this show for any
amount of time. You know, I say constantly, when I'm
about to say right now, take everything I have said,
everything you've seen, everything you've heard, and consider it all
flat out lies, every last bit of it. Don't take
(43:48):
my word for it. The guy Jeremiah who was reading
from the book the YouTube video, we will watch it too.
Don't take his word for it. The person who wrote
that book he was reading from. Don't take their word
for it. Yup, I'm sitting there showing scriptures and reading.
Don't take my word or that for it. Consider us
(44:10):
all liars, biggest pack of liars you ever met.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
Wait, men, JK, why do you say that?
Speaker 1 (44:16):
Because the whole point is it's supposed to entice and
motivate you to go behind anything you've been taught or
told and do the research for yourself to find whether
or not it's truth is true or not or in
other words, as the Bible said, let every man be
a liar and let my word be true. That's why
(44:42):
I'm saying that. You got time to hop online to shop.
You got hours upon hours of the day to be
bopping back and forth between TikTok, Instagram, x, YouTube.
Speaker 3 (44:59):
And whatever everyvere else.
Speaker 1 (45:03):
Ort to be going to Amazon or tell you or
whatever you know wherever you shop from. Okay, take a
fraction of that same time and look this up for yourself.
Look up the origins of Christmas. During y'all that dog
wonne they got check, GPT and everything else out there.
Speaker 3 (45:25):
Now all types of resources got durned it.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
It will even read the results to you we truly
living in this day. Don't realize how blessed we are. Okay,
we really do not take all this wonderful avenues and
ways to get knowledge for granted, what are we using for?
Speaker 3 (45:49):
So you know, some poor heart up.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Dude can go to only fans watch some poor nineteen
year old girl debate herself for four dollars. Come on, y'all,
come on, get the knowledge. Gets wisdom. As verse number
six says, don't turn your back on wisdom. Verse number five,
(46:12):
get wisdom, develop good judgment. Getting wisdom is the wisest
thing you can do. Get the wisdom, get the learning.
Go go, go read, read, read, study, research the origins.
Speaker 3 (46:30):
Of all of them.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
If it's a day that's celebrated in the United States
and called holiday, you need to research every last one
of them.
Speaker 3 (46:40):
Start from the origins and work your way on up.
Speaker 1 (46:45):
Because I can guarantee you right now, especially if they
have any type of Christian connotation to them, I can
tell you right now that they have nothing to do
with God.
Speaker 3 (46:57):
They all have pagan and.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Pre pre Christianity origins, every single one of them. And personally,
I'm tired of seeing these people. On October thirty first Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, evil, evil, Evil,
Devil's Day, Devil's Day, Devil's Day, even though they did
(47:20):
its actual origins and originations had nothing to do with
celebrating the devil but anyway evil. But then two months no,
I'm sorry, not even two months later, one month later,
they're stuffing their faces and celebration of some cute little
fairy tale they were told about the indigenous people rescuing
(47:46):
the idiotic European colonizers from starving that winter, and then
a month and then out there telling people why we
should be celebrating up the birthday of Jesus. So I
say all that to say, why is it not okay
to participate in one day with pagan origins, but.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
You all wholeheartedly promote two other days with pagan and
evil origins.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
M h.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
And that's just I say two other days, because you know, October, November, December,
they just all follow behind each other. And then what
four three four months from from December that you're gonna
celebrate Christmas's twin brother another day with pagan origins and
(48:43):
try to tie it back to the death of Jesus.
Get wisdom, y'all, Get wisdom, get wisdom, don't celebrate just
because it's tradition. This is the last place you ever
gonna get any type of endorsement for something that that's
birth and carried on by a tradition. Okay, Like I
(49:03):
said before that it ain't called breaking tradition just so
it could be.
Speaker 3 (49:08):
Eye catching. Men.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
That's what I do, and I do it not from
a place again of judgment. I do it because I
used to be man forget hip deep. I used to
be forehead deep in all of it, all of it,
including Christmas, including Easter.
Speaker 3 (49:28):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (49:31):
The last set of scriptures, so the set before this
was talking about getting wisdom, hold on the wisdom, trusting wisdom.
Proverbs chapter twelve, first number twenty two. And we're not
gonna wait that long because we're still right here in
Proverbs Proverbs chapter twelve, verse twenty two.
Speaker 3 (49:50):
Why get that wisdom? Why live.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
And appreciate and cherish and then that wisdom? Well, here
we go, right here. Proverbs chapter twelve, verse twenty two.
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those
who tell the truth.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
I'm gonna read it again because it's only one verse.
Speaker 1 (50:20):
The Lord detest lying lips. But he delights in those
who tell the truth. And there are many, many more
scriptures out there, and I do mean many that describe
how God feels about liars, amongst other things. There's more
(50:42):
scriptures in the Bible y'all talking about how God feels
about liars and what's going to ultimately happen to them
than there are any mention of homosexuality. But think about
how many either sermons or services that you've sat in
(51:04):
or that you've looked up and found online somewhere.
Speaker 3 (51:07):
What? How many?
Speaker 1 (51:09):
What did you hear more services than sermons on lying
or people living a homosexual lifestyle or bisexual lifestyle. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (51:29):
I wonder why that is?
Speaker 1 (51:33):
Get wisdom, get wisdom, living that wisdom, operate by that wisdom,
Tell the truth with that wisdom because the Lord delights
in it. But if you continue on down this path
of telling that lie on his son, which the scripture
(51:53):
tell us, and whom he was well pleased, and whom
he is well pleased, you will have to stand before him.
But one day we all will, the saved and unsaved,
the light. Everybody is gonna have to stand before him.
(52:14):
What excuse are you gonna use. Oh well, my pastor said,
don't want to hear it. Well, my mom and dad
don't want to hear it. No, Well, I wanted people
to be happy. I didn't want to ruin nobody's holiday.
Oh okay, okay, So you cared more about those people's
(52:36):
feelings than you did about what I said about lying.
And furthermore, and you lied on my son, your so
called proclaimed savior, because you didn't want nobody mad at you,
and you didn't want to ruin nobody's holidays, which, by
the way, I've recently had a conversation similar to that.
(53:02):
I ultimately, in the end, it doesn't matter. This is
not about feelings. It's not about feelings. It's about souls. Okay,
and any soul that's you mad about any of this, well,
I'll tell you what first gets saved. That way, you
(53:24):
can take it up with God when you meet him.
But if you get mad to say, okay, well I
want nothing. I don't want nothing to do with God
because that's all judgment and our man.
Speaker 3 (53:37):
If I lie, I'm gonna this.
Speaker 1 (53:38):
The okay again, take it up with him when you
meet him. All right, I'm not here to excite you.
I'm not here to encourage you in wrongdoing, not not
like anybody ever needed encouragement and wrongdoing.
Speaker 3 (53:58):
I'm not here to spare your fears. I am here
to tell the truth.
Speaker 1 (54:03):
I am an ambassador of the Kingdom, and just like
I should expect other ambassadors of the Kingdom, if and
when I'm doing something wrong, to come and get me straight.
Got to do the same, Yes, I said that, to
come and get me straight if and when I do
(54:24):
or say anything wrong. But that doesn't include somebody's feelings
getting hurt or well, it's okay, you know, as long
as people are happy, we really don't have to tell them.
Speaker 3 (54:40):
We really should have.
Speaker 1 (54:41):
To, Okay, get y'all just read and for some of
y'all heard exactly what the scripture said.
Speaker 3 (54:51):
He detests lying lips. God does not like liars.
Speaker 1 (54:58):
Why because there's all scripture that called Satan the father
of lives.
Speaker 3 (55:07):
You know, you.
Speaker 1 (55:08):
Straight, letting some unclean spirit, some fallen angel operate through
you when you purposely and willingly go out there and
tell lies, like I said, especially you sit there lying
on the sun.
Speaker 3 (55:19):
What what? Wow?
Speaker 1 (55:25):
So again, people, there's no scripture that commands us to
celebrate that day there's no scripture that backs up that
it's the actual day of Jesus' birth. Jesus never celebrated
his own birthday. The Apostles never celebrated his birthday, nor
(55:45):
again endorsed or told anybody.
Speaker 3 (55:47):
To do it.
Speaker 1 (55:53):
And when you go out there and get your wisdom,
and we heard and saw the guy in the video, Okay,
he told the old git them all this. So the
early colonizers had more sense, that didn't even have a
fraction of the technology and knowledge available to us now.
(56:16):
But those people were smarter and had more sense than
people right now in the twenty first century going into
the twenty fifth year, and knew better than to do this,
and was only overruled again, like I said, because of retailers,
retailers getting in the ears of the politicians and the
(56:38):
lawmakers to tell them to counsel it so they can
all get that money used to be ill legal. But
as I said earlier, as I say every year, I'm
not deluded enough to think that this is going to
stop a lot of people from doing because it's not.
Speaker 3 (56:58):
It's not.
Speaker 1 (57:00):
But hopefully what this will do eventually is at bare
minimum stop tying Jesus's name to Christmas. Okay, we can
at least start there, can we at least start right there?
Speaker 3 (57:18):
Just stop?
Speaker 1 (57:19):
Okay, no, no, it is not the birth of Jesus.
The Bible doesn't say that. All right, A good starting place,
you know, baby steps, baby steps. I ain't mad at you,
so yeah, that's all.
Speaker 3 (57:31):
That's all I got, y'all.
Speaker 1 (57:33):
So for those of you all listening, if you want
to see the actual videos, then go over to rumble

get it out there for more people. And also for

just just listen, like, comment, share, watch, and that'll be
more than enough. So again, as always, I thank y'all,
(58:58):
thank y'all for the bottom of my heart joining listening
to this.
Speaker 3 (59:02):
Old country boy jawing about it for a minute.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
And again, I cannot and will not wish anybody marry
Christmas or even the happy holidays. But one thing that
I do encourage, one thing that I love, and one
thing I definitely believe in, is I do know that
this is like one of the few times, if not
the only time, but you're that people can actually get
(59:27):
together with family and friends and loved ones. So I
definitely encourage that. So I will say, enjoy your family,
enjoy your friends, enjoy your neighbors, enjoy your time off,
just enjoy life. Okay, be safe and doing it, don't
eat too much. And yeah, hey, God just continue to
(59:49):
watch over and bless us all. Speaking of which, God
willing until the next time he brings us back together again. Y'all.
Remember that, And you don't need a holiday season for
this to treat people the way you want to be treated. Okay,
look past skin and all that other stuff, and remember
that they are humans like you.
Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
They are souls just wrapped up in a skin rapping
since we're at this time of year. Okay, they're just
wrapped up in skin. They're a soul like you. They
have feelings, even if you have to love them and
help them.
Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
From afar a so be it.
Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Just seek to treat people better than you treat yourself.
All right, and again watch out, be safe, get wisdom,
get knowledge, act on it. So until we come together again, y'all.
Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
Peace,
Alright, alright, alright, hello, hi and howdy. This is your
man's JK. Moore, welcoming you back to breaking tradition. So
tonight we are actually gonna be talking about a tradition
that was already broken one time before in a matter
so to speak. So not wanting to take too much time,
(00:46):
let's go and jump right into it. So if you
all will put down that cup of egg nog and
those cookies, okay, go ahead, hop on in, click on
that seatbelt, lean that seed back, kick your feet up,
and let's take this ride together as we talk about
how celebrating Christmas in the United States used to actually
be illegal, and if you had some people over on YouTube,
(01:08):
they would say yeah, and they should go back to
being illegal. But now that's neither here nor there. So
we are going to jump into this and I'm just
going to make that full screen.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
So this is from the book Legends, Lies and Cherished
Myths of America by Richard Chinkman. And Christmas used to
be illegal. Of all holidays, Christmas loan's largest on the
national calendar, but it hasn't always been in this position.
Until the Civil War, Christmas was but scantly observed.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, so let's go ahead and stop it right there.
Until the Civil War, Christmas was but scantily observed. Now
he's gonna touch over the reason why that was, but
started right off, you know, right off the top by
saying this was not always ay that was celebrated and
or legal in the original colonies of the United States.
(02:08):
So for everybody that that you know, things that the
celebration of this day is.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Such a big you know us tradition wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
And we're going to get into some more or the
down the video here, Jeremiah, he's going to get into
some more of the reasons why it's not long video.
So and then after that, of course we're going to
jump right into some scriptures that just reinforce what we're
going over here.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Most shockingly, retailers hardly seem to take notice of the occasion.
Historians report that the pages of the New York Tribune
in eighteen forty one did not contain a single example
of advertising with the Christmas theme. It wasn't until after
the Civil War that retailers began experimenting with special Christmas sales.
And we know that during the Civil Wars, when schools
(02:57):
came about too because nationals our state sovereignty got taken
over an industry began to reign supreme.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Those Wow, so that's interesting, y'all. Look at the date right.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Here, eighteen forty one.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
That is in the Grand Scheme of Things, That really
isn't all that far back. I mean, we're just very
matter of fact, we're about going to what the twenty
fifth year of the year two thousand, So this was
not that long ago. And it's interesting they even start
to send us off on right here. Most shockingly, retailers
(03:36):
hardly seen to take notice of the occasion. So in
other words, yeah, it hadn't become the cash cow that
we know it as today. So yeah, eighteen forty one,
that honestly is not, like I said, in the Grand
Scheme of Things, that's really not that long ago.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
The things go hand in hand. Once they did, however,
it didn't take long for them to discover the commercial
problem disability is offered by the holiday. By eighteen seventy,
December had become the merchant's single largest selling month of
the year. And we know that's what Christmas is about.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Has nothing to do with Jesus Christ. There's nothing in
the Bible about it.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Wow, Wow, y'all heard my man say.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah, that's what Christmas or let's let's put a more
specific point on it. That's what Christmas in the United
States is really all about. It's about that chi ching okay,
selling of trees and decorations and clothes and then I
mean literally just everything across the spectrum. Okay, because, like
(04:46):
any good corporate entity, once they saw that there was
not only money to be made from this thing, but
recurring money in other words, every year, money to be made.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Oh yeah, it was.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
A wrap then, and he saw my retailers. Of course,
you know, it didn't just stop with the stores once
Hollywood got wind of this and got a little taste stuff.
But what I mean, which makes sense, because it's the
retailers who those commercials you see for whatever, dog food
or I don't know, laundry.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Detergent, this show, whatever it is you use. Yet those
are retailers.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
They pay a portion of that production to be done,
whether it's TV or even movies, they paid for a
portion of that production.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Oh sorry about that, y'all. I thought I had the
phone off. Do that right quick, But.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah, these retailers pay a portion of that which is
why you see their product show up or you see
their commercials run during the TV program. So yeah, the
retailers Hollywood hand in hand. Once they knew that there
was recurring money to be made from this thing, it
was on and popping. But most importantly, my man said
(05:58):
what I and many other believers out there say every
year around, during and even after this time, Christmas has
absolutely no biblical bearing whatsoever. There is nowhere in there
where it's mentioned that December twenty fifth is the day
(06:22):
the birth of Jesus. There is nowhere in scripture where
we see Jesus or even his apostles after him, celebrating
that day as his birth. So why, going into the
twenty fifth year of the twenty first century are so
many churches Christian religious organizations still out there pumping this
(06:47):
crap to people straight up lying to him about what
that day means.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
As far as us as.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Believers, it means nothing, absolutely nothing.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Now it meant something, and it means something.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
To the cultures who created today, the peoples from different
parts of what we know is England, the Germanic contributions
to the Mule contributions, and probably the biggest and most
recognizable contribution to forming this day and what it was.
The Roman contributions with their celebrations of Saturnawya, all the
(07:29):
all those things put together completely outside of the United States.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
The only thing that the that.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
This country offered to the tradition and the celebration of
Christmas was monetizing the living crap out of it. Okay, yeah,
that's what they contributed. But okay, for those of us
who know, who know, we know, like my man said,
this hass not biblical, has nothing to do with the
birth of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Mass is Roman Catholicism, where they believe that through transubstantiation
that crackers are great. By pronouncing the words harkers corpus,
the anthee becomes literal body blood of Jesus Christ, which
is cannibalism. Christmas had not, by the way, always been
regarded as a proper time for celebration. In the seventeenth century,
this holiday, which was to become so American, was widely
(08:16):
regarded in New England as an unappealing Popish import Roman Catholicism.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
See my man said it right there. Can't remember which
episode it is of breaking tradition, but I have an episode.
Matter of fact, I didn't do it last year, so
it must have been year before last.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I have action, and this excuse me. I actually remember
what it was called.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I called it Season's Breakings, where I talked about the
exact same thing that my man right here is talking about.
I give the origins of that day and how when
it comes to people of God, and how it was perpetuated.
How I made his way all away from Italy Rome,
(09:00):
all across Europe, because like I said, there were different
European societies that contributed a little bit here, a little
bit there, okay, swept across Europe and then made its
way across the Atlantic Ocean and landed here in what
we now call the United States of America. Very interesting,
and my man said, the early European colonizers did not
(09:24):
recognize that they called and get a Popish import in
other words, because remember real skin history lesson here. Those
Europeans that left Europe and came and colonized what we
called the United States were Protestants.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
In other words, they were protesting.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Against Roman Catholicism and the whole Roman system as it
came to religion and as it came to the governmental
hold that the Roman Catholic system had over Europe at
that time.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Okay, part of the.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Reason that, like, well, this is a scant history as
many anyway, those Protestants knew and recognized the celebration of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
For exactly what it was.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Those from again, the Germanic, Germanic and Nordic regions and cultures,
they recognized the Yule celebration of spirits and pagan deities,
not God, not God the Father, definitely not Jesus the Christ.
And those who had been under the direct influence of
(10:38):
Rome who knew about Saturn Nahia and those celebrations again,
Saturn Nawia, take away the alia at the end of that,
what you left with Saturn one of the Roman gods
of feasts and festivals and celebration of renewal, time of harvest.
So again they knew, okay, yeah, might have been the
(11:00):
celebration of spirits and gods, but not God the Father
and not his son Jesus the Christ. So they had
absolutely nothing to do with it. They knew this thing
was a mishmash of these different pagan beliefs and traditions,
and knew that Jesus's name had been fraudulently added to
(11:24):
it in order to aid make it more palpable to people.
It was a brilliant strategic move by the Emperor Constantine
because it was a way that his Roman citizens could
still participate.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
In the.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I was the word, I'm looking for traditions of Saturnawia.
But now, oh, we'll just say that this was also
the birth of the Savior of Jesus Christ, so they
could do it under that blanket. So that way, in
other words, everybody would be happy. Oh wow, this is
the birthday of Jesus. Well, clearly we must celebrate it.
(12:03):
Clearly we must celebrate it with these ancient pagan practices
and traditions. Makes absolutely no sense. But again the Protestants, now,
don't get me wrong, I'm not you know, giving these
people a nice little pat on the head, like, oh
you guys were so awesome. No, no, no, notice how
(12:25):
hyper her you purposely called them colonizers. But even within that,
they were smart enough, and they at least had enough
God in them to know to recognize Christmas for what
it was, paganism and nothing to do with true worship
of God the Father, God the Son.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
And it was definitely not inspired by God, the Holy ghost.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
All right, nothing, dude, Christianity at all, that says.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Well, I'm just the one point I disagree with him on.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
No, it is a purely Christian invention that there's no
difference between Roman Catholicism and Christianity. If you go back
and look at all the denominations of Christianity, they are
are there are They're all offshoots of Roman Catholicism form
of Christianity.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
So yeah, don't necessarily agree with that.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
But anyway, Saturnalia, the leaders of the Massachusetts Bace Colony
so disdained Christmas that in sixteen fifty nine they passed
a law against celebrating the holiday.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Wow. Oh no, let me leve them finish that question.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Anybody who is found observing it by abstinence from labor, feacing,
or any other way.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
They passed a law against celebrating the holiday, punishing anybody
who is found observing it by abstinence from labor, in
other words.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
A day off which still do.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Feasting or any other way, which, of course people still do.
Christmas dinners, Christmas travel, Christmas everything. So yes, people, it
was a illegal time to celebrate, punishable by law.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
The law was repealed. Twenty five years later, but the
prejudice against Christmas remained strong.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Wow, So the law was repealed twenty five years later,
and there is absolutely zero, zero doubts in my mind
that that was all by persuasion and coercion of the
retailers and the corporations who had saw what a cash
(14:56):
cow of this thing was, y'all did nothing happens in
politics these.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Days, okay.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Whoever has the most money is the one who gets
the ear of the politician, and the politicians simply becomes
a puppet on their strengths, either passing or repealing and
doing the way with any law that that you know,
(15:25):
would guarantee that that contributor continues to make the money
that they want, whether it be.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Legally or illegally.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
So yeah, that twenty five year band, even though it
said there was still strong presidents against the celebration of Christmas.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Okay. In the end, just like with anything else in
this country, money talks.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Judge Samuelsol was happy to report in his diary in
sixteen eighty five that he didn't see anybody celebrating the holiday.
They holy day. It's an unholy day. Holiday means holy day.
This is certainly not a holy day, and the Bible
says we're not supposed to reverence times and seasons and holidays,
(16:13):
and so.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
That's right now.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I already know right away because I've had this conversation before.
People who hear that that scripture they're gonna pull out.
You know what I'm saying, let me keep it nice
and PG that scripture that they're going to refer to,
that scripture from Paul. We are not supposed to judge
people based off their celebration of holy days and new
(16:35):
moons and blah blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, they're
absolutely right. We're not supposed to judge people on anything.
We are all humans. We're not in a position to
judge anything. Having said that, just because we aren't to judge,
we are to teach and show people the right way.
(16:56):
That's a commandment straight from the mouth of Jesus speaking
of which go out into the world, teaching and showing
them all things that I commanded you. Circles right back
around to what I said at the beginning. Do we
see anywhere in scripture where Jesus or the apostles celebrated
(17:17):
in any version of this day Christmas sothernnahia.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Yule, any of it.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
No, neither did he command them to teach the celebration
of these days. So yep, you're absolutely right. Don't judge
people on anything. We are not in a position to judge.
But if the opportunity and the time comes up, to
tell them the truth about this day, especially those who
(17:45):
are still unfortunately under the bondage of that religious spirit
and under the bondage of ignorance, thinking that this day,
December twenty fifth, is the birth of Christ and we
are the celebrated. Oh no, no, no, by godly, by
Messianic command, you have every right to go in there
(18:09):
in love and tell people the truth and tell them, no,
it is not. And if you happen to have this
information available about the real orientes of it, simply show
them why it's not. Or if not, you got a
Bible available, tell them. Can you find me any reference
you got your phone? Okay, go to Google, go to Being,
(18:31):
go to whatever the one is for Microsoft Explore or whatever.
Go to Firefox, type it in. Is there with what
day was Jesus born? Is there anywhere in the Bible
that commands us to celebrate Christmas.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
The answer is going to be the same. It's not.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
The day he was born is not in there. And no,
there is no biblical director to tell us to celebrate Christmas.
All right, leven, live them, finish up. It's only a
few minutes left.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Stuff like that. So of all our folk heroes, Santa
Claus is probably the most familiar and the most misunderstood.
To begin with, the name is strictly the Americanism. In Europe,
he was known for centuries as Saint Nicholas. The change
occurred when the Dutch spelling his name Sint nic Coolas,
(19:19):
imported Nicholas to America. Somewhere along the way, the name
became Center Claus and finally Santa Claus. More surprisingly, Santa
Claus didn't always arrive at Christmas. In Europe, he showed
up on December sixth, as he did in the early years.
In America. He became specifically associated with Christmas only when
Americans of British ancestry adopted him from the Dutch.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
See all these different cultures that contributed to this whole
Christmas machine that's observed in the United States today.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Derk Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Even Santa Claus originally was not tied to that date.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Six and.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Naming him of Santa Claus again is not even something
based in the United States, just heard of a man.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
It comes from the Dutch. That's why I said.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Different European civilizations, the English, the Celtic, the Germanic. Okay,
the Dutch people from Denmark, which falls very much in
with that Nordic Germanic culture and countries of people. See
just little pieces here there. There's even some Middle Eastern
(20:36):
born traditions near that time that managed to sneak their
way a little bit in there. So just little bits
and pieces here and there, you know, all finally topped
off with some good old American greed.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Well, it's interesting, of all, Saint Santa Claus didn't always
look the way he does now. The Dutch made him
out to look like Fredes there, thin, tall and dignified.
Later in the early eighteen hundreds, Washington Irving imagined Santa
as a bulky man who smoked the pipe and wore
baggy pens and a drawing in Harper's Weekly in eighteen
(21:20):
fifty eight he doesn't even have a beard. Not until
the Civil War did they begin to look the way
we think he should thanks to a cartoon drawn by
Thomas Nast. Santa hasn't changed much since then, but he
got Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer only at nineteen thirty nine,
when Montgomery Ward came up with this idea. So we say,
(21:41):
it's all just a bunch of made up fooie. So anyways,
I hope y'all enjoy this all.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Right, by yo?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
And my man was one hundred percent on the money. Okay,
all just a bunch of made of food, every last
bit of it. I didn't know that part about Rudolph. Okay,
nineteen thirty nine. Up again, y'all barely what seventy some
years ago almost, But just like with everything else, dealing
(22:16):
with Christmas is now so ingrained with Christmas.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
And hey, I can't even lie.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I forget the name of the production company that made it.
I think it's ranking best. But that claymation, stop motion
Rudolph cartoon with Yukon Cordnelias and all the minute, love it,
love it. It became a childhood favorite. And with all the
other stuff that I decorate my office with here, I
(22:45):
used to have a Yukon Coordinaias. Can't find that little
joker but hey, when I do, I'm honest not to
admit to you. All right now, he's gonna be post
up probably down there below Batman, I mean, right next
to Batman, or maybe on the second show, right beside
Harley Quinn. I don't know, but I'm gonna find a
space for him somewhere. So but yeah, so hey, as
(23:10):
you can see, my man was right on it, Christmas
is a not an American made they be has nothing
to do with the birth or the worshiping or even
the accepting of Jesus to Christ or God the Father.
But it was and is a mishmash of different European
(23:34):
with just a taste of Middle Eastern pagan traditions all
brought together, and it very recently in the grand scheme
of the original colonies which then became the entire United States.
From that point now, I mean, it's still, like I said,
(23:58):
not really that that long ago that it was fully
made legal to be able to outwardly celebrate this day,
because oh main, no mistake, people did. Still they did
still celebrate it. They just didn't do it openly, and
as not frequently trying to use big words there, they
(24:22):
didn't do it as openly as people are allowed to
do it now. Okay, it was something like a dirty
little secret. Okay, it was done behind closed doors, and
you didn't make a big announcement that you were having
a Christmas party or whatever.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Jobs I mean he went back then.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Okay, it's not like you could hop on the telephone
and call up people and let him know anyway. You know,
it's kind of passed by word of mouth to certain people. Hey,
you know what I'm saying, we're gonna do this, keep it.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
On a loan. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
We ain't trying to get fined or put in prison
or whatever. So yeah, you know, just like that. But
as always got to bring it back around to some
script y'all. Y'all know it, you know it. So again
we've already established there's nothing in the Bible that endorses
(25:11):
the celebration of Christmas. But there are a few things. No, actually,
there's more than a few things in the Bible that
lets us know, hey, when it comes to this day
and any of these other days rooted in paganism, Halloween, Easter,
or rooted in lives Thanksgiving, Okay, yeah, no, just don't
(25:34):
do it, Okay, all right, so we are going to
start the scripture off tonight. Well, speaking of Roman Catholicism,
we're actually gonna start in the Book of Romans, chapter twelve,
verse number one and two. Go to Romans chapter twelve,
(25:54):
Versus one and two and let me get that logo
there and wait, Dot don't want to block any of this,
and we will put a quick pause for the cause.
For those of you all who will be following along,
(26:15):
excuse me. Romans chapter twelve, Versus one and two, and
it reads the title of this section is a living
sacrifice to God. And so, dear brothers and sisters, I
plead with you to give your bodies to God because
(26:37):
of all He has done for you. Let them be
a living and holy sacrifice, the kind He will find acceptable.
This is truly the way to worship him. Don't copy
the behavior and customs of this world. But let God
transform you into a new person by changing the way
(26:58):
you think. Then you will learn to know God's will
for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Okay, it says it right here in verse number two.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Don't copy the behaviors and customs of this world, the
customs the traditions that originated and that led to what
we now know is Christmas. Those things predate Christianity by
hundreds of not thousands of years, so there's no way
(27:38):
any person of God can say with any truthfulness.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
In them whatsoever that.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Oh no, it was originally a holy day and the
devil took it and made a mockery. No, no, no, sir, no, ma'am.
You can stop them lies right now. Just no. No,
Christianity actually took these pagan customs in days and made
(28:05):
a mockery of them as far as the Pagans are
concerned by painting Jesus's face all over them, No, it
is actually the other way around. Satan did not take nothing,
all right, that God dog. They already belonged to them.
So no, don't copy the behavior and customs of this world.
(28:29):
Let God transform you into a new person by changing
the way you think, now, y'all.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
I'm not crazy, I ain't deluded.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Like I said, I have this conversation this time every
single year. Some people allow the Holy Spirit to work
in them, so they'll cut it out, but most don't,
not really expecting them to. And truthfully, to be completely
honest with John, don't rightly care I mean, that's something
(29:03):
that you have to work out between you and God.
I don't control that. Like I tell you guys all
the time, I am merely a presenter. I present the information.
What you choose to do with it is completely up
to you and God. Then you will learn to know
God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and
(29:25):
perfect and not daring. Not thinking that I'm bad or
bold enough to speak for God, I am quite sure
that His will for us that are called, you know
by his name, that claimed his son as our savior,
is not for us to continue living in and spreading
(29:47):
the lie that Christmas has anything to do with the birth.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Of his son. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
That that is not good, nor pleasing, nor perfect. It's
just it's the complete opposite of all.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
This is a lie.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
All right, Let's go next to the Book of June,
starting in chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen. The
Book of John, chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen.
And while I'm waiting for y'all to get there, you
know what, I think, I'm gonna use this handset a.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Little more often.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
If any of y'all notice my posturing is different, because
usually I don't use a handset. I use my stand
up microphone sometimes in the videos you can see it
right in front of All the times, I position the
camera where you can't, so I have to sit up
with which honestly is better for my back.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Really shouldn't be leaning like this, but I ain't gonna lie.
I'm enjoying leaning like this.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Yeah, buddy, might use the old headphones more often. But anyway,
John chapter seventeen, starting with verse number thirteen, and it reads,
now I am coming to you. I told them many
things while I was with them in this world so
(31:10):
they would be filled with my joy. I have given
them your word, and the world hates them because they
do not belong to the world, just as I do
not belong to the world. By the way, y'all, this
is Jesus the Christ talking here, okay. And I put
(31:33):
this in here because the point I try to make
too believers is the things that are truly of God.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
The world, which.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Is just another term for those who are outside of God,
outside of God's will, outside of even believing in God. Okay,
that they're the world as the Bible describes them.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Sometimes I said the.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Fact that the world world celebrates this same day as
believers in God. I said that right there, ought to
tell y'all there's something not right here.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I said.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
These people don't care about or celebrate anything else pertaining
to God or Jesus or any of our belief system.
But different countries, different cultures, different ethnicities around the world
celebrate Christmas or their version of it, just as believers
(32:34):
in God do. Like I said that right now to
show y'all there's something wrong.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
With this, because, as Jesus just.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Said right here in verse fourteen, the world hates them
because they do not belong to the world, just as
I do not belong to the world.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Those of us who.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Believe in Jesus have been washed clean by his blood,
we do not belong to the world now.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Of a truth, Yeah, it takes time.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
To get that stuff that is ungodly out of our
system for most of us. Hey, for some people, a
miracle happens, that happens immediately, but the plain truth is okay.
For most people, it don't happen immediately. It takes some
time for them to work it out, to get it
out of their system. To thank the Holy Spirit that
it is being worked out out of their system. And
(33:35):
when we do truly strive to live a life for
God after being saved by Jesus. And we tell family
members and friends and co workers and neighbors, Hey, yeah,
that thing I used to readily do with y'all, I
can't do it anymore.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Now.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
I'm not judging you, Remember I said earlier, we are
in no position to judge, not suppose anyway. No, I'm
not judging. I'm not saying you're a evil, bad person.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I mean, heck, no, I.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Can still talk to you still, laugh, cut up, hang
or whatever. Just certain things that I used to do
with you. Yet no, I can't do that anymore because
they're no longer of this world. Don't belong to this world.
Jesus didn't belong to this world, But yet the world
unites in this time of year to celebrate his so
(34:27):
called birth. Nah nah nah, See how.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
That don't even sound right? Okay, Firse number fifteen.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm not asking you to take them out of the world,
but to keep them safe from the evil. And we
know the ether one is Satan. Oops, ain't first number sixteen.
They do not belong to this world anymore than I do.
(34:57):
Make them holy by your truth, teach them your word,
which is truth. Jesus is the word. Jesus also said,
I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. And
(35:19):
just think about it, y'all. What can be more of
a slap and an affront to the originator, the source
of truth than a day which so many of his
believers and followers celebrate as his birthday with no historical
(35:42):
or biblical.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
Evidence to back this up. It is a lie.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
So what can be what's the most hurtful and biggest
affront and slap in the face.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
To the source of true truth?
Speaker 1 (36:02):
A lie, one of the biggest lines created and perpetrated
by those who claim that they love and accept him
as their savior still to this day and to many, many,
many more Christmases, until this same source of truth, who's
(36:23):
talking to here? Jesus comes back and finally tells them, Hey,
Genus is see me here?
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Now, I'm here amongst you talking.
Speaker 1 (36:34):
That day was not my birth Where did you all
get that from? Beside your own evil imaginations? And boy,
God helped constantine the Roman papacy system around during that
century who got together and conspired to create that lie?
Speaker 3 (36:53):
God help them.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
All we can do is hope before all them dudes
passed away and into eternity, that they truly went to
God with truly repenting hearts, and asked.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Them to forgive them for that, because if not.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
Nobody, but yeah, the word Jesus, Jesus, the word Jesus,
the truth, the way, and the life. Make them holy
by your truth, Jesus. Teach them your word, Jesus, which
is truth, Jesus. Just as you sent me into the world,
(37:35):
I am sending them into the world, and I give
myself as a holy sacrifice for them so they can
be made holy by your truth. We should not and
cannot expect those who want nothing to do with God
or Jesus or walking and living by the Kingdom standing
(38:00):
that God and Jesus said, Oh, okay, it's almost idiotic
to expect them to live by this truth and to
not believe that it's the birth of Christ. However, having
said that, more often than not, it's those same people
(38:22):
who I have conversations with that no flat out that
December twenty fifth is not Christ's birthday and has nothing
to do with his birth, y'all. It trips me out
when I have these talks with people from either other
religions or people who are atheists, which don't believe in
(38:43):
any type of God or spirituality or any of.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
That that no more.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
And have a deeper understanding of God's kingdom, God's principle,
God's Word than so some of these people who go
running to those buildings every Sunday with the cross on
top of them for the past forty years. They go
(39:11):
in not knowing nothing, and they come right back out
still not knowing nothing.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
It amazes me. It amazes me.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
That people who don't believe, want nothing to do with
God or Jesus have a better deeper understanding of who
Jesus was, is, what he did, what.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
He said, what he commanded.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Then people who week in and week out go run
into Bible study and choir practice and Sunday school and
Sunday service than the night's service, than the we're going
over here for the revival service.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
Amazing. That's literally the only word I can think of. Amazing.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
Those who should know the Word and the truth a
lot of times are found lacking. But those who don't
believe in it have a better understanding. And not all
of them, of course, not all of them. As matter
of fact, some of those who don't believe in it,
have a way better and deeper understanding of that same
(40:27):
word and truth. Now, as the saying goes, make that
make sense? God, I can't. All right, just keep it moving, okay.
So now let's flip on back to the Old Testament
Book of Proverbs, chapter four, verses five through seven. So,
(40:51):
Book of Proverbs, chapter four, versus five through seven. So
Jesus said, teach them your truth. They have to be
here in the world, but protect them while they're in
the world. Let them live in your word, which is
(41:12):
the truth. So now let's go home back to Proverbs
chapter four, verses five through seven. All right, and it reads,
(41:34):
get wisdom, develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or
turn away from them. Don't turn your back on wisdom,
for she will protect you. Love her and she will
guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do.
(41:55):
And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. Again, not
talking about judging people. Oh, you going to hell a rhythm. No,
that's not what It's talking about good decision making based
off the facts and the information you have before you,
or in other words, wisdom. Get wisdom just because you've
(42:20):
been taught by whatever guardians you grew up in a
house with. And just because you were told this that
December twenty fifth is the Savior's birthday by whatever person
was standing behind that poolpit. Okay, they're humans, just like
you are. What you think, just because they're dressed in
(42:44):
a robe and they're standing up in a poolpit, that
automatically means they're telling you the truth, unadulterated, unabadd truth,
the uncut truths. Because you see people thinking and giving
(43:06):
them all types of kudos and praise or whatever. Okay,
they're not God and they're not Jesus. Yeah, they have
certain voice inflections and certain things they do to entertain you,
to make it sound good. Whatever they're telling you, they
don't necessarily mean it's the truth and for and of
(43:27):
you all that's been listening to this show for any
amount of time. You know, I say constantly, when I'm
about to say right now, take everything I have said,
everything you've seen, everything you've heard, and consider it all
flat out lies, every last bit of it. Don't take
(43:48):
my word for it. The guy Jeremiah who was reading
from the book the YouTube video, we will watch it too.
Don't take his word for it. The person who wrote
that book he was reading from. Don't take their word
for it. Yup, I'm sitting there showing scriptures and reading.
Don't take my word or that for it. Consider us
(44:10):
all liars, biggest pack of liars you ever met.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
Wait, men, JK, why do you say that?
Speaker 1 (44:16):
Because the whole point is it's supposed to entice and
motivate you to go behind anything you've been taught or
told and do the research for yourself to find whether
or not it's truth is true or not or in
other words, as the Bible said, let every man be
a liar and let my word be true. That's why
(44:42):
I'm saying that. You got time to hop online to shop.
You got hours upon hours of the day to be
bopping back and forth between TikTok, Instagram, x, YouTube.
Speaker 3 (44:59):
And whatever everyvere else.
Speaker 1 (45:03):
Ort to be going to Amazon or tell you or
whatever you know wherever you shop from. Okay, take a
fraction of that same time and look this up for yourself.
Look up the origins of Christmas. During y'all that dog
wonne they got check, GPT and everything else out there.
Speaker 3 (45:25):
Now all types of resources got durned it.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
It will even read the results to you we truly
living in this day. Don't realize how blessed we are. Okay,
we really do not take all this wonderful avenues and
ways to get knowledge for granted, what are we using for?
Speaker 3 (45:49):
So you know, some poor heart up.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
Dude can go to only fans watch some poor nineteen
year old girl debate herself for four dollars. Come on, y'all,
come on, get the knowledge. Gets wisdom. As verse number
six says, don't turn your back on wisdom. Verse number five,
(46:12):
get wisdom, develop good judgment. Getting wisdom is the wisest
thing you can do. Get the wisdom, get the learning.
Go go, go read, read, read, study, research the origins.
Speaker 3 (46:30):
Of all of them.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
If it's a day that's celebrated in the United States
and called holiday, you need to research every last one
of them.
Speaker 3 (46:40):
Start from the origins and work your way on up.
Speaker 1 (46:45):
Because I can guarantee you right now, especially if they
have any type of Christian connotation to them, I can
tell you right now that they have nothing to do
with God.
Speaker 3 (46:57):
They all have pagan and.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Pre pre Christianity origins, every single one of them. And personally,
I'm tired of seeing these people. On October thirty first Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, evil, evil, Evil,
Devil's Day, Devil's Day, Devil's Day, even though they did
(47:20):
its actual origins and originations had nothing to do with
celebrating the devil but anyway evil. But then two months no,
I'm sorry, not even two months later, one month later,
they're stuffing their faces and celebration of some cute little
fairy tale they were told about the indigenous people rescuing
(47:46):
the idiotic European colonizers from starving that winter, and then
a month and then out there telling people why we
should be celebrating up the birthday of Jesus. So I
say all that to say, why is it not okay
to participate in one day with pagan origins, but.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
You all wholeheartedly promote two other days with pagan and
evil origins.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
M h.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
And that's just I say two other days, because you know, October, November, December,
they just all follow behind each other. And then what
four three four months from from December that you're gonna
celebrate Christmas's twin brother another day with pagan origins and
(48:43):
try to tie it back to the death of Jesus.
Get wisdom, y'all, Get wisdom, get wisdom, don't celebrate just
because it's tradition. This is the last place you ever
gonna get any type of endorsement for something that that's
birth and carried on by a tradition. Okay, Like I
(49:03):
said before that it ain't called breaking tradition just so
it could be.
Speaker 3 (49:08):
Eye catching. Men.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
That's what I do, and I do it not from
a place again of judgment. I do it because I
used to be man forget hip deep. I used to
be forehead deep in all of it, all of it,
including Christmas, including Easter.
Speaker 3 (49:28):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (49:31):
The last set of scriptures, so the set before this
was talking about getting wisdom, hold on the wisdom, trusting wisdom.
Proverbs chapter twelve, first number twenty two. And we're not
gonna wait that long because we're still right here in
Proverbs Proverbs chapter twelve, verse twenty two.
Speaker 3 (49:50):
Why get that wisdom? Why live.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
And appreciate and cherish and then that wisdom? Well, here
we go, right here. Proverbs chapter twelve, verse twenty two.
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those
who tell the truth.
Speaker 3 (50:17):
I'm gonna read it again because it's only one verse.
Speaker 1 (50:20):
The Lord detest lying lips. But he delights in those
who tell the truth. And there are many, many more
scriptures out there, and I do mean many that describe
how God feels about liars, amongst other things. There's more
(50:42):
scriptures in the Bible y'all talking about how God feels
about liars and what's going to ultimately happen to them
than there are any mention of homosexuality. But think about
how many either sermons or services that you've sat in
(51:04):
or that you've looked up and found online somewhere.
Speaker 3 (51:07):
What? How many?
Speaker 1 (51:09):
What did you hear more services than sermons on lying
or people living a homosexual lifestyle or bisexual lifestyle. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (51:29):
I wonder why that is?
Speaker 1 (51:33):
Get wisdom, get wisdom, living that wisdom, operate by that wisdom,
Tell the truth with that wisdom because the Lord delights
in it. But if you continue on down this path
of telling that lie on his son, which the scripture
(51:53):
tell us, and whom he was well pleased, and whom
he is well pleased, you will have to stand before him.
But one day we all will, the saved and unsaved,
the light. Everybody is gonna have to stand before him.
(52:14):
What excuse are you gonna use. Oh well, my pastor said,
don't want to hear it. Well, my mom and dad
don't want to hear it. No, Well, I wanted people
to be happy. I didn't want to ruin nobody's holiday.
Oh okay, okay, So you cared more about those people's
(52:36):
feelings than you did about what I said about lying.
And furthermore, and you lied on my son, your so
called proclaimed savior, because you didn't want nobody mad at you,
and you didn't want to ruin nobody's holidays, which, by
the way, I've recently had a conversation similar to that.
(53:02):
I ultimately, in the end, it doesn't matter. This is
not about feelings. It's not about feelings. It's about souls. Okay,
and any soul that's you mad about any of this, well,
I'll tell you what first gets saved. That way, you
(53:24):
can take it up with God when you meet him.
But if you get mad to say, okay, well I
want nothing. I don't want nothing to do with God
because that's all judgment and our man.
Speaker 3 (53:37):
If I lie, I'm gonna this.
Speaker 1 (53:38):
The okay again, take it up with him when you
meet him. All right, I'm not here to excite you.
I'm not here to encourage you in wrongdoing, not not
like anybody ever needed encouragement and wrongdoing.
Speaker 3 (53:58):
I'm not here to spare your fears. I am here
to tell the truth.
Speaker 1 (54:03):
I am an ambassador of the Kingdom, and just like
I should expect other ambassadors of the Kingdom, if and
when I'm doing something wrong, to come and get me straight.
Got to do the same, Yes, I said that, to
come and get me straight if and when I do
(54:24):
or say anything wrong. But that doesn't include somebody's feelings
getting hurt or well, it's okay, you know, as long
as people are happy, we really don't have to tell them.
Speaker 3 (54:40):
We really should have.
Speaker 1 (54:41):
To, Okay, get y'all just read and for some of
y'all heard exactly what the scripture said.
Speaker 3 (54:51):
He detests lying lips. God does not like liars.
Speaker 1 (54:58):
Why because there's all scripture that called Satan the father
of lives.
Speaker 3 (55:07):
You know, you.
Speaker 1 (55:08):
Straight, letting some unclean spirit, some fallen angel operate through
you when you purposely and willingly go out there and
tell lies, like I said, especially you sit there lying
on the sun.
Speaker 3 (55:19):
What what? Wow?
Speaker 1 (55:25):
So again, people, there's no scripture that commands us to
celebrate that day there's no scripture that backs up that
it's the actual day of Jesus' birth. Jesus never celebrated
his own birthday. The Apostles never celebrated his birthday, nor
(55:45):
again endorsed or told anybody.
Speaker 3 (55:47):
To do it.
Speaker 1 (55:53):
And when you go out there and get your wisdom,
and we heard and saw the guy in the video, Okay,
he told the old git them all this. So the
early colonizers had more sense, that didn't even have a
fraction of the technology and knowledge available to us now.
(56:16):
But those people were smarter and had more sense than
people right now in the twenty first century going into
the twenty fifth year, and knew better than to do this,
and was only overruled again, like I said, because of retailers,
retailers getting in the ears of the politicians and the
(56:38):
lawmakers to tell them to counsel it so they can
all get that money used to be ill legal. But
as I said earlier, as I say every year, I'm
not deluded enough to think that this is going to
stop a lot of people from doing because it's not.
Speaker 3 (56:58):
It's not.
Speaker 1 (57:00):
But hopefully what this will do eventually is at bare
minimum stop tying Jesus's name to Christmas. Okay, we can
at least start there, can we at least start right there?
Speaker 3 (57:18):
Just stop?
Speaker 1 (57:19):
Okay, no, no, it is not the birth of Jesus.
The Bible doesn't say that. All right, A good starting place,
you know, baby steps, baby steps. I ain't mad at you,
so yeah, that's all.
Speaker 3 (57:31):
That's all I got, y'all.
Speaker 1 (57:33):

(58:58):
thank y'all for the bottom of my heart joining listening
to this.
Speaker 3 (59:02):
Old country boy jawing about it for a minute.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
And again, I cannot and will not wish anybody marry
Christmas or even the happy holidays. But one thing that
I do encourage, one thing that I love, and one
thing I definitely believe in, is I do know that
this is like one of the few times, if not
the only time, but you're that people can actually get
(59:27):
together with family and friends and loved ones. So I
definitely encourage that. So I will say, enjoy your family,
enjoy your friends, enjoy your neighbors, enjoy your time off,
just enjoy life. Okay, be safe and doing it, don't
eat too much. And yeah, hey, God just continue to
(59:49):
watch over and bless us all. Speaking of which, God
willing until the next time he brings us back together again. Y'all.
Remember that, And you don't need a holiday season for
this to treat people the way you want to be treated. Okay,
look past skin and all that other stuff, and remember
that they are humans like you.
Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
They are souls just wrapped up in a skin rapping
since we're at this time of year. Okay, they're just
wrapped up in skin. They're a soul like you. They
have feelings, even if you have to love them and
help them.
Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
From afar a so be it.
Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Just seek to treat people better than you treat yourself.
All right, and again watch out, be safe, get wisdom,
get knowledge, act on it. So until we come together again, y'all.
Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
Peace,
