THE CHRISTIAN WALK

WHY AND HOW GENUINE BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIANS SHOULD NOT CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS?

raditions, cultures and customs are the enemies of humanity since the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Satan and his demons will not come out openly that they should be worshipped; rather, they hide behind traditions and customs to sneak their agendas on us. "That's how we've been doing it and its part of our traditions and culture! Does it mean now that we're born-again Christians, we should not honor our tradition?" you hear from apologists of traditions and customs. But the question to ask these people is; Who established these so-called traditions and cultures in the first place? Who put all these so-called customs and culture together?" Simply because it is called custom, tradition and culture doesn't make a thing legal, permissible and allowed before the True Lord God Almighty. No wonder our Lord Jesus Christ upbraided the Jewish Establishment of His Day in Mark 7:8; "You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions." As blood-bought and redeemed children of the True Lord God Almighty midwifed by the Death by Crucifixion and Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, you should know and understand; "that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors," (I Peter 1:18). The King James Version stated plainly what these empty ways of life were handed by our forefathers thus: "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers�" (I Peter 1:18).

There is no event or celebration on earth today that is a foremost exemplum of jaded culture, satanic tradition and an empty way of custom passed onto humanity by our forefathers than the Christmas Celebration. We have come to a situation when a lie that is repeated often simply passes for the truth, yet where can we find the truth? "Your Word is Truth, O Lord" (John 17:17). We do not need to go into secular history to know that my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ wasn't born in today's month of December. Right there I the Synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, we can read that this is not the season my Lord and Redeemer was born. In Matthew 2:1-2, we read; "After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, "Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him." Common sense tells us that the Magi could not have seen a star in snowy season in the month of December in Palestine which will now celebrate as the Birth of my Savior. In Luke 2:1-3, we read thus; "In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) and everyone went to their own town to register." Again, this is pure common sense; no ruler would order a census of the people during snow season, because it would be a sham. This is the only account of the order of Caesar Augustus recorded in the Synoptic Gospels as narrated by Luke, the Gentile physician guarded by the Holy Spirit. Further in Luke's account, we read that; "And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified" (Luke 2:8-9). Again, no responsible and good shepherds would be in the fields with their flocks during the snow season, rather they would keep them in the stables. Shepherds living out in the fields during snow? Most unlikely. There is overwhelming evidence in secular history that the current Christmas Celebratory mood was another pagan festival merged together for acceptance. We do not have the time and space to narrate this secular history, but the fact of the matter is that, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ wasn't born in December, period!

Now what? A pastor once said tongue-in-cheeks; Does it matter whether our Lord Jesus Christ was born in December or not, since the whole world has accepted it as a fact? Of course, it matters. Simply because the whole of Sodom and Gomorrah were neck-deep in homosexual acts didn't make the act right and acceptable before the True Lord God Almighty? Lot and his family could have given up and wring their hands and join in the depraved and demonic acts. Simply because the people of the world during Noah's Day were sinful and; "The LORD saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time" (Genesis 6:5), but out of that wholesale stench of global sin and wickedness, Noah and his family inoculated themselves and "�found favor in the eyes of the LORD." (Genesis 6:8). When the Jehovah Lord God Almighty warned in Exodus 23:2: ""Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd�" was He bluffing or just threatening? It matters that December is not the Season of the Birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and it maters still that as a born-again Christian, redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb, you are aware of this spiritual and historical fact. This is where to begin, because the useless saying; The voice of the people is the Voice of the Almighty God is wrong and unbiblical. It is not even in the Holy Bible. It is also possible that the multitude can be wrong. There are sundry examples in the Holy Bible so what should you and I do in the present circumstance? Do not involve yourself in the maddening revelry associated with Christmas. You are not celebrating the Birth of the Savior, but the birth of a demon-god. Second, do not involve yourself in exchange of gifts and binge common with this season of madness and demon worship. Third, do not use December as your month of spiritual calendar and scheduling appointments, just as you would not use Halloween as your festival of revelry. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to open the eyes of your understanding and illuminate your heart to continue to do His wills in your life, irrespective of season and celebrations. It shall be well in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY STILL DOES MIRACLES: Nothing gladdens my heart than being used as God's instrument to touch the lives of precious souls around the world. Until we see our life as God-given and a gift to be used for His Glory, life has no meaning. When I see the unemployed secure a job, the homeless provided with shelter, soul crying for salvation, young kids looking for direction in life, the runaway kids steered back to their parents, lending a helping hand to the financially hard-up, plant a seed of life into a soul wandering away, being used by the Lord Jesus Christ as harbinger of the fruit of the womb for couples desperate to sire the next generation of God's army and sundry blessings from the Lord God Almighty, you become humble and praise His Holy Name. The Lord God Almighty is still in the business of miracle working. Trust me, He hasn't changed. Read this:

"Dear Daddy in the Lord, good afternoon sir. We dedicated our baby to the Lord last week Sunday. I was able to send my daughter's first tithe after her dedication yesterday. The dedication went well. I sent it to the UBA account number you provided in Nigeria. I attached here some of her pictures at the baby dedication service. May the Lord God continue to use you for His Glory and in the lives of precious souls around the world, Its me, Pastor Eugene Ohams, Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, Southeastern Nigeria."


*Pastor Eugene and his wife dedicating their baby gift from the Lord Jesus as we prayed at the beginning of this year 2017.

My prayer is that the Lord God Almighty who answered our prayers and intercessions on behalf of Pastor Eugene Ohams and his wife in 2017 will look unto your situation too and answer our prayers for you as we enter the year 2018 in the Mighty Name of Jesus, Amen. Do not be afraid to reach out in your search for answers to your problems in life. Yes, there are religious racketeers, impostors and fake prophets out there. This is not new for the Holy Bible warned us to watch out for them as Apostle Peter warned; "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you�" (2 Peter 2:1), but that doesn't mean there are no genuine prophets on earth as well. What is expected of you is seek the Face of the Lord Jesus Christ and let the Holy Spirit direct you accordingly. We will see in 2018 in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

PRESIDENT BUHARI, CALL EFCC TO ORDER NOW ON THE ARREST OF MR INNOCENT CHUKWUMA, INNOSON BOSS

The arrest of Mr. Innocent Chukwuma, the founder and chairman of Innoson Motors Nigeria Limited should not have taken place in any sane society. The facts of the matter are plain and simple; the courts have spoken, and it is up to the apex court in the land to give final adjudication on the transactions between Innoson Motors and his bankers.


*Mr. Chukwuma should not be harassed by the EFCC and instead should be supported by the Federal Government of Nigeria

The Nigerian government should demonstrate its sincerity in the industrialization of Nigeria by supporting indigenous manufacturers like Chukwuma jumpstarting indigenous technology. Here in the United States, companies are being given tax waivers, so they can employ people while in Nigeria, the Buhari Administration is doing the exact opposite. Innoson is setting a pace in indigenous auto technology and that man should be a pride to all Nigerians indeed all Africans. To start manufacturing local automobiles from scratch to the level Innoson has attained merits the company every available incentive, including tax waivers that the Buhari Administration has been touting by its spokespersons. Write off those so-called taxes that Innoson may allegedly be owing and provide enough capital for him to continue the good works he and his company are doing in Nigeria. Unless there is more that meets the eyes in the arrest and bail, it is not the business of the EFCC to usurp the roles and constitutional duties of the courts in the matters between Innoson and his bankers. If the EFCC continues to harass this young and entrepreneurial man, those of us in Diaspora will commence petition in the New Year 2018 to bring the plight of Innoson to the people of the world.
