I don’t want to be disrespectful at all but I am still waiting for the biblical reason I need to celebrate Christmas. I had my notebook open and my Bible on my lab ready to be taught. It just seems it is only because people want to. Something I do for God needs to be done Gods way. ❤ These two videos confirmed what I’ve always known… it started with the pagans and was pushed by the Catholics.
Exodus 20:4-6 "You shall not make for yourself any idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth". This passage also warns that God is a jealous God who will punish the children for the sins of their fathers. Deuteronomy 12:4-5 in the Bible says, “Do not worship the LORD your God in the way these pagan peoples worship their gods”. It also says to seek the LORD at the place of worship he chooses, where his name will be honored. This statement means that according to certain religious beliefs, particularly within the Abrahamic traditions like Judaism and Christianity, worshipping God by cutting down trees and using them as idols is considered wrong and forbidden; the correct way to worship is through prayer and devotion without relying on physical objects like carved wood. Key points to remember: Biblical reference: This idea primarily comes from the book of Jeremiah in the Bible, where it condemns the practice of pagan cultures who would cut down trees from the forest and carve them into idols for worship. Meaning of "idolatry": The act of worshipping anything other than the one true God is considered idolatry, and using carved wooden objects as a representation of God is seen as a form of this. Spiritual worship: The emphasis is on worshipping God through a personal connection and spiritual devotion rather than through physical rituals involving objects like trees.
Kinda makes you wanna do your own research to find out if he is not so accurate huh? Go forth I say! We await your report! Pastor Jack trusts him, so why should we have any reason not to trust him?
All so interesting! I’ve learned so much 🤩
The best part is - that it is all true... love
17:46 that’s awesome

I really found some of that stuff hard to believe, how much can you trust the material you used for your research?
