THE CHRISTMAS SERIES – PART 1

GOD’S GIFT TO MANKIND

We are coming into the happiest and most jolly season of the year, Christmas. It is first and foremost a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. This was God’s gift to a world under the curse of sin and eternal condemnation. This gift of a baby born to a woman from the seed of God Himself (Holy Spirit) would become the means of salvation from sin and eternal death unto soul cleansing and eternal life. This was God’s sacrificial gift of love to us.,

We joyously celebrate that birth event at this time of year on December 25^th. Events that are truly worthy of the celebration of Jesus include His birth, death, resurrection, and ascension back to heaven. However, the church has been slack in teaching the history and origins of His birth and the celebration of it. Much ignorance (lack of knowledge) of it persists still today.

The lack of knowledge and understanding is often used by cults to undermine a person’s faith and re-direct them into a cult. Jehovah’s witnesses especially use this tactic by attacking people’s belief that Jesus was born on December 25^th. We shall therefore examine the truth about Christmas and Jesus’ birth so that we do not become victimized by such subversive motives.

We must realize that regardless of what part of the year Jesus was born (and it was not December 25), the important matter is that we are commemorating the fact that God’s gift of love, His only begotten Son, was to redeem us from sin and bring us into the family of God (and the Kingdom of Heaven). This is the reason for the season

THE BIG LITTLE WORD “IF”

The word “IF” can change the meaning of an entire sentence. Take this scripture for instance: In II Chronicles 7:14 it reads:  “(--) My people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” The little word “if” has been left out at the beginning. Because it was left out it implies that God’s people shall (no choice) humble themselves and pray, etc., but it doesn’t mean that at all. The Word IF is used as a condition.  The word if means in the event of; or on the condition. In other words, there are conditions to the promises of God and in the event of doing those conditions we receive the promise. In this case, it would read this way, “In the event and on the condition that my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” It is a conditional promise.

Another place in scripture that can change the entire meaning is in Romans 10:9, where it says, “IF” thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Once again, this is a conditional verse. When the two conditions are met then salvation comes. First, you must confess with your mouth. Second, you must believe in your heart. Some churches believe that baptizing a baby makes them saved, but this tells us different. The “IF” is vital in this case, because without those two things of confessing and believing there is no salvation.

Another place that brings comfort with an IF is in I John 1:9 where it says “IF” we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Now that is a wonderful promise, to know when we own up or confess our sin to God, that He cleanses us from the sin, when we do the IF.

God is concerned about the little things, or He wouldn’t have put the “IFS” into the scripture.

Thank God for the IFS. It gives us reassurance that when we do IF, we can expect the result of the rest of the promises. If is a BIG little word.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Many are going through storms, but remember Jesus is with you. He never gives us more than we can take. Read 1 Corinthihans 10:13

APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

12-13-2022

There comes a time during life’s battles that we simply have to sit out a round or two. So don’t ever think of this down time as a defeat; But be assured that it’s just a brief retreat. Just know that it’s ok to stop along the way to catch your breath and to rethink your strategy. In fact, it can even be beneficial for you to stop long enough to refresh, regroup, refocus and refire; But don’t you ever consider trying to retire. Yes, sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do; And there’s never a need for the explaining of your brief refraining. It’s all working for your good and God’s glory. So sit back and take advantage of this brief delay and know that God is preparing you for the next round. Meanwhile, allow Him to take care of the things you cannot fix or control; Then you’ll see God arise and His enemies will be scattered off and away from you.

                  Oh, glorious Christmas Tree, 

                        Coming from the ground. 

                        To brighten our world, to lighten our days. 

                        A Star that shines, in the passage of night. 

                        A Star they will follow, Oh what a sight! 

                        You make us to smile, you make us to think, 

                        Of your beautiful message,  

                        No words do you speak. 

                        Now lights cover you, a Star right on top. 

                        You, beautiful tree, you make our hearts stop. 

                        It is so simple, what you stand for. 

                        The gift of our Savior, 

                        A tiny Babe, cradle and more. 

                        I cry in the night, to tell people of you. 

                        Why can’t they see, this image they view? 

                        Christ Jesus, the one who died for us. 

                        A symbol, a tree, the Star, come see! 

                        This beautiful tree, It’s Christmas you see!
