27 Now notice, Christmas now has changed. Now, the real day of Christmas, we… that would be disputed, because we do not know it. The way we take Christmas, if you ever studied it, we are taking the—the Roman Catholic churchs conception of when Christmas was. Actually, Christ could not have been born on the twenty-fifth day of December, and be according with the Scriptures, because theres thirty foot of snow in Judaea in that time, see, so they… it could not been shepherds out on the hills, and so forth, and itd be contrary then to all nature. He came like nature. 28 Because, God has a law, and those laws cant be changed. The sun goes down, you cant say, Well, it wont rise. It does rise. Summer, winters, and so forth, its Gods laws that Hes set in order. And they, every one, work perfect. 29 Now, but, He was perhaps born in April or May, one. When, He was a Lamb, and every other thing proved He would be a Lamb. Thats the reason He was born in a manger, in a barn, and not in a house; because lambs are borned outside in the barns, in straw and stuff, and not in the house. When He was taken to the crucifixion, He was led away. You remember, you lead the sheep. We go to the slaughterhouse down here, they got a goat or something that leads the sheep; the sheep wont go hisself, hes got to be led. In every way, He was, so then in nature He had to be born when lambs are born. And thats in April, see, thats about when He was born. 30 But then when Christianity was brought into Romanism and mixed at Nicaea, then they had the sun-god, Jupiter, the sun-god of Rome, his birthday was on the… between the… about the twenty-fifth day of December. Because, the Roman circus started on the twenty-first and lasted till the twenty-fifth, which was in celebration of the sun-gods birthday. So blending Romanism paganism to—to Christianity, they said, Lets make it the Son-of-Gods birthday, and then we can all agree upon it. See, its always been on systems of compromising to the Truth, every time, has always been. 31 So today we find out that in there theyve injected everything, all of our holidays are polluted. Our Easter, its no more the resurrection of Christ, its a some kind of an Easter rabbit, or a new hat, or—or something, or a little pink duck; has nothing to do with the resurrection of Christ, no more than Santa Claus has anything to do with the birth of Jesus Christ. But its the world! And the commercial world has got everything in such a tangle and mess until, no wonder, God is justified to burn the thing up. And Hes going to do it, He promised He would do it. And it has to get in this mess in order… Theres no hopes for it, its gone. 63-1216 - We Have Seen His Star And Have Come To Worship Him Rev.
