Santa in the Church??   Merry-Christ-MASS?  

Christmas is a pagan holiday celebration the church has painted over as "Christian".  While we are not legalistic in regard to how you may or may not observe the day with family, the following articles may give you the true backround of the Christmas season.  In 2007 we observed at least two local churches featuring Santa Claus as part of the "holiday". 
Eze. 8:9 And he said unto me, Go in, and see the wicked abominations that they do here. 10 So I went in and saw; and behold, every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon the wall round about.

Why Do We Celebrate Christmas on Dec. 25th?

Christmas, Judgement, and Conscience

The Real Meaning of Christmas Including the meaning of the "mass".
PT.2  Many Christians today believe that Christmas is a Christian holiday. The fact is that people have been celebrating Christmas, long before the birth of Christ. The festivity was known then, as Saturnalia. Saturnalia was a festival in which the Romans commemorated the dedication of the temple of the god Saturn. As winter approached, they were losing harvest & were in need of the sun in order for their harvest to grow & bear fruit.  Saturn was the Roman god of agriculture and harvest.
This meant that the god Saturn was in need of the sun god in order to complete his job, therefore the attention was then shifted to the sun god. The Saturnalia custom is rooted in pagan & Celtic believes & traditions. They believed in human sacrifice including the sacrifice of small children & infants in which were offered to their gods in order to empower the sun to return with strength. They believed that winter was due to the sun losing its power due to a battle between the sun god & the god of the dead.  Since winter is annually, they believed these battles were fought annually and thus the sacrifices had to be annually in order to appease or empower their respective gods.  Because the sun always return at the beginning of the new year, they believed that its was due to all of their human sacrifices,  and costum rituals that took effect; empowering their sun god to return each year victoriously.David Meyers  Good info and a 6 minute audio at the bottom. easy listening.
