Text Box: Christians practice religious tolerance. If someone wishes to be a Moslem, Christians will not interfere with that decision. Unless Moslems adopt the same level of tolerance towards Christians, they will never be respected or accepted by Christians. Christians will often look at a situation and simply state the facts, as is being done here. When this is done to Christians, and what is being pointed out are deficiencies in Christianity or in the practice of Christianity, Christians usually will assess what is being made known in an attempt to become better Christians. Unless Moslems do the same, they will never be accepted or respected by Christians. Many decades ago there was a disaster in Japan. A city in Northwest USA adopted a Japanese city and sent it supplies, food, money, and people to assist though the disaster. Decades later, that USA city suffered a disaster, and the Japanese city sent it assistance. This was done by non-Christian Japanese. Throughout the history of the USA, when there has been a disaster anywhere in the world, Christian USA has sent assistance to those effected. In many instances those Christians were tortured and killed by the Moslems whom they sought to help. But when there is a disaster in the USA, Moslems, even those who reside in or are citizens of the USA, rarely help, and then, usually only help other Moslems. On September 11, 2001 A. D., when live TV showed the WTC in flames, a plane plowing into the second tower, people falling to their deaths from the towers by the hundreds, the towers collapsing, and thousand of persons being killed, Moslem shop owners and employees in the New Orleans French Quarter crowded in the streets in large groups, crowding and blocking the streets, yelling and screaming with joy. Some New Orleans police officers told these people they had best stop because if their actions became known by the people of New Orleans and the surrounding area the police would not

Text Box: CELEBRATE OUR SAVIOR’S BIRTH Do not be concerned how others celebrate Christmas, how they celebrate the birth of Our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. Concern yourselves with celebrating His birth, and pray for those who attempt to deny Christmas is the celebration of Jesus' birthday. It is by our living as Christians that we will help them to be converted to Christianity. There are those who promote various ideas about Christmas and what it means. Some promote its being love, some a time for giving, some a time to give presents, some a time for toys. We know it is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ Who is God and Who is the Savior of all of members of mankind who will follow Him to the Father. So, celebrate! Be filled with joy as would be filled with joy at celebrating the birthday of whomever it is you love most in all the world. Retell the story of His birth. Retell how mankind was separated from the union with God which is the union for which mankind was created. Retell how mankind had been given instructions by God the Father, but how mankind as a whole constantly moved both towards God and away from God. Tell how God the Father sent His only begotten Son to become a complete man while remaining completely and totally God, and how even at His birth, born of the only Virgin to ever conceive of a child, the world was partially ready for Him and mostly desirous of ignoring Him. But that He came anyway! Retell the story of His being born in a manger because there was no room for the Holy Family in the inn, but that all of creation reverenced His birth, and of how the Angelic Choir of Heaven came to Earth in celebration to announce His birth. Of how all of the Heavenly Angels and all of Heaven rejoiced at His birth, for now it would be possible for the creatures known as mankind to become one with them in glorifying

Text Box: God. Think of your being there, of holding the baby Jesus in your arms like one of the wise men, or one of the shepherds or one of their wives. He is warm, with the smell of a baby, snuggling against your heart and into your warmth. Perhaps his fingers curl around your finger. It is warm where he lays against you, and when His mother reaches to take Him from you, you feel where He was and it brings you warmth of love and a smile to your face. Your mind knows this is the Creator and the Son of the Creator and the Holy Spirit, for where is One, there are the other Two, but there also is only the One who is there. And this you can not comprehend for when God comes only in His Divinity He come in a manner which you can not comprehend. But as man he comes in a form you can comprehend and understand. You can respond to Him in His human nature, where responding to Him in His Divine Nature may have been difficult. We know what will happen to Him, and how He will overcome sin and correct the downfall of man, but that is not what we celebrate at this time. What we celebrate at this time is His birth and all the wonderful mystery associated with His birth. So be happy and rejoice. Let there be joy to the world, for the Savior has come, and with His birth He brings the Magnificence to those who accept and follow Him. Ref: 1 Cor 4:1-5; Luke 3:1-6 +
