"MERRY CHRISTMAS" GLP--We Need a Little Christmas | |
KoFFee_ (OP) User ID: 1373078  United States12/22/2011 07:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Merry Christmas to you Koffee, I hope you and yours have a great one this year. Quoting: GeekOfTheWeek To all of GLP, have a good and safe one!!!!! I have really grown to love this site, so many good people with great views on life. So many of us here, are looking for the best in life, and yet every day our doom gets weirder. All I can say is this, celebrate this Christmas like it's your last, because it very well could be! Love and peace be with you all. Hello GeekOfTheWeek, How are you and your wife this Holiday Season? You are right, I have said the same thing myself, it could be our last Christmas. I wish you both a stress-less day filled with much happiness! :pblls: However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace. Acts 20:24 "This man really is the Savior of the world!" John 4:42 Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen. I am the Alpha and the Omega, " says the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." Revelation 1:7 |

| KoFFee_ (OP) User ID: 1373078 United States12/22/2011 09:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As many can see, I am a true follower of Christ. It's sad, I don't even like to use the word "Christian" anymore because this name has become utterly polluted by modern day "Christians" and it appears to be beyond repair. I didn't want to preach here on this thread, I just wanted to point out the fact that I like to say "Merry Christmas". I do feel I do my Lord dishonor when not mentioning Him as much as I would like, but that will be for another time--He knows what is in my heart. I truly want to thank everyone who has taken a moment to wish everyone a "Merry Christmas". You bring tears to my eyes. For those who are followers of Christ, here is a wonderful sermon from the late Dr. D. James Kennedy. I have many of his books and I love his teachings.

Christmas with all its good cheer--family get-togethers, the delicious aroma of food cooking and baking, the music, the excitement of children, my brightly, cheerful lit neighborhood--can be a positive time for people living in such a negative world. My son and I was enjoying a delicious Italian meal at a restaurant the other evening. The waitress placed the receipt on the table and said "Happy Holidays" and started to walk away until she heard me say loud and clear, with a smile on my face, "Merry Christmas". She stopped, turned around and with a "beaming" smile herself she said, "Merry Christmas to you, too" and gave me a wink. I will always say "Merry Christmas" I was at my Post Office--I go there frequently and I'm friends with all the clerks, I even bring them cookies and little gifts--anyways, they wished me "Happy Holidays". They knew I was going to say "Merry Christmas" and when I did, they all said it back. I will always say "Merry Christmas" I was in line at a produce store the other day and in a joyful tone of voice I wished the clerk a "Merry Christmas" and wished the others waiting in line the very same thing. I heard a voice say, "I'm Jewish". I turned around and the voice came from an elderly man, I said "Happy Chanukah", he smiled and said "Merry Christmas". In fact, I just read that Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, wished American Christians a "Merry Christmas". On Valentine's Day I say "Happy Valentine's Day". On Easter I say "Happy Easter". On Mother's Day I say, "Happy Mother's Day". On Father's Day I say, "Happy Father's Day". On the 4th of July I say, "Have a Happy 4th of July". On Thanksgiving I say, "Have a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving". And on Christmas I say "Merry Christmas" I will always say "Merry Christmas" As a Christian, I don't care about the pagan origins, I don't care that it's not the right date--I will not allow the enemy to steal my joy. Jesus WAS born. I am joyous that this day was set aside to remind me of one of the greatest events in history--the birth of my Savior--His birthday, yet I was the one who received the gift along with many others--and you can too. The Bible says that heaven is a free gift. “..... the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23) While we are still able to say it, use this thread and don't be afraid to say:  :mcs4:"Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest; and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:11-14 GOD BLESS YOU SISTER KOFFEE  !!Love to you and yours!! Merry CHRISTmas !!JOY TO THE WORLD THE LORD IS COME  !! |
