How to Not Go Overboard While Staying on Board — Roy Daniel

The Danger of Departing from the Faith

Let us pray well before you actually pray go turn to. 1 Timothy 4 verse 1 to 3. I'm gonna have to go through this fast. It was about a one-hour sermon. Let's see how I can do it. 1 Timothy 4 verse 1 to 3 let us pray father.

I just asked thee in short. I know it's a time limit That thou wouldest work in this meeting and open up our eyes Lord. There's so many dangers past salvation past that point when you become a new Creature in Christ Jesus like you did to me seven years back when you saved my soul Lord for the first time though I'd prayed many times to be saved.

That day you saved me. But Lord past that there are many dangers for the Christian and I want to ask you that in this Message that thou wouldest warn us and show us and give us a discernment. What is right and wrong in different areas of our life.

Jesus Christ name my dear Lord and Savior. Amen. 1 Timothy 1 verse 4. 1 Timothy 4 verse 1 to 3. Sorry says. Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter days Some shall depart from the faith. Giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils.

Speaking lies and hypocrisy having their conscience seared with a hot iron. Now whenever I look at this verse It comes to my mind the thought if you were thinking of a normal person was sitting there in a church thinking in the past that came out and said that demons can deceive and They will tell lies and speak lies and hypocrisy.

Then immediately the thought that came to mind. Yes, demons will come and tell people to go off into the world and to sin and to go into terrifying worldliness and sin, but then we read in the next verse that these demons say we read forbidding to marry and commanding to abstain from meats in Other words these demons do not tell you to go and sleep around with women or to lie or to steal to watch horrible Television programs.

Satan's Addition to God's Word

These demons come and they say that we must add to the Word of God in Genesis 3 verse 1 it says Talks of Satan coming to Eden in the in the serpent and He basically comes and says to Eve. Yeah have God said he shall not eat of every tree of the God.

The first thing that Satan did was not to ask people to sin. But to heighten God's standard and to add to the Word of God. God did not say you may not eat of every tree of the God. God said you may not eat of one tree.

There was a great freedom in Eden. There were the principles of God's Word. You may not need of that tree. You must work in the garden name the beast and so on but apart from that there was great freedom.

You didn't have to seek God's leading should I eat of that tree? And then should I eat of that tree and should I eat of that tree and should I do that tree? They could choose if we look at church history, which I think that many of the most dedicated Christians on earth.

Gnosticism, Legalism, and License

If they studied church history, they wouldn't have fallen for many of the mistakes that have already happened. Then you'll see in the early first second century there was the Gnostic movement and Of course, we know if we look at the Gnostic Bibles the Da Vinci Code all these things that they believe that Jesus Christ was not God.

But what was that founded upon? How many of you know from church history? What was that founded upon? How did they come to the conclusion that Jesus Christ was not God? Well, they also believed and this was the foundation of the reasoning that matter is sinful.

The table in front of you is sinful. The world is sinful. The trees are sinful. My body is sinful and therefore Jesus could not be God because he had a body. That's basic church history now that lie Gnosticism based upon a citizen that our bodies and matters sinful led to two streams in history.

The one said and this was the liberal sin. Well, my body is separate to my spirit and my soul therefore if I sin and go into Terrifying evil and sleep around with woman and do terrifying sins all the time it's fine because my body is separate from my spirit and my soul and There was a whole stream in history that led to liberalism today.

We have a parallel in the grace movement. Where we have under grace can do what we want. Romans talks against this but the same era that our body is sinful led to Another movement and this movement believe all of my body is sinful.

Then I must chastise my body. I must not laugh. Laughing is sinful. I must whip myself. I must chastise My body is the sinful being and yeah, we have two movements that came out of what the same lie. One movement liberty to sin the other movement adding to the Bible Chastising themselves and they both were based upon the same foundational lies.

Now today if we look across the church as you go around you'll find in the churches many times that people are very high high standards or extra biblical and They look down at the people who are liberal and I'm not saying we shouldn't have high standards by the way throughout your worldly music and your TV programs that the fall God but They look down at each other and yet they're based many times as I go around the churches upon the same Foundational lies and they don't even realize it.

God's creation Was created here. Let me ask you a question the tree of knowledge and good of good and evil the tree of knowledge of Good and evil was it sinful in and of itself? Was that tree a sinful tree.

God created everything good. That tree was not sinful. The sin was to disobey a revealed command of God and they did this when Adam took of that tree when Eve took of that tree and took of that fruit and ate of it then it was sin in Titus 1 was the first book of the Bible that ever try to attempt to learn off my heart.

It talks of those of the circumcision and These people looked at so many things as being sin. There were so many things which the Bible did not say were sin which which were sin you know the the Pharisees even you have to wash your hands because also you couldn't pray eat and Then God says Titus 1 verse 15 to 16.

I'm to the pure all things up here. But unto the defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure, but even the man in conscience is defiled and goes on to say That they profess that they know God but in works that are nine being abominable and subduing that every good work reprobate reprobate meaning in the grip.

To reject every good work and what is happening here? Yeah, our people so many people use this verse. Evangelists love to use verses out of context. I did too teachers. Love to look at what is it actually saying these people of the circumcision?

They were seeing so many things as being sin and God rebukes them. It says unto the pure all things appear but unto the father and I believe in nothing appearing in mind and conscious of the filed and We find it because they're hot.

Looking at all these things as being sin didn't change their heart and this came out in their deeds. Because they weren't obeying the Bible and they were unto every good work. Reprobate though they professed to know God.

Adokimos is the Greek word for it, but Now there's a movement across the world. I'd like to use them as a beginning foundational to show you how. And we're going to look at a few things. God or shall we say people sorry Can lead us into a citizen?

The housecleaning movement so many conservatives fall for this movement. They say and I've listened to videos of them. Everything from the east has a demon behind it. Every image of anything a Dog a little wooden dog has a demon behind it.

Everything ever worshipped has a demon behind it. Everything an African ever made and I've heard of their great leaders say this Has a demon behind it and then they add to that your ex-girlfriends photos Pokemon.

I am against Pokemon by the way, but they say there's a demon behind it. Harry Potter. I'm against Harry Potter, but they say there's a demon behind it. Now you ask the question why do people fall for this?

Two reasons I've met conservatives who fall for this kind of stuff and the one thing is they live in a world That's liberal and they hate the liberality the people who just don't care about God's standards.

And as they hate this someone comes up and he preaches with power against Harry Potter against Pokemon against all these things. He said there's demons behind it and he sees the young people throwing these things away.

And they say this must be of God because they've been waiting for a year To stand up for the truth and when that year comes they accept it upon wrong unbiblical Foundational reasonings number two the reason people fall for this is that the demons leave and I'm going to come to this very soon.

Americans sorry in Africa. We a lot of us understand why the demons leave, but I'll explain it to the Americans. That's not to be proud. We'll I'll get to that. This is agnostic ascetic movement. There's some obvious problems number one if everything from the east Has got a demon behind it, then we'll have to throw away some of our cars our t-shirts Japan our computers if everything ever worshipped has got a demon behind it, then every tree in India will have to be cut down and Unfortunately the American army would have to send atom bombs to destroy the the Sun because people worship the Sun if Any image my little Winnie the Pooh that I in my bed has got a demon behind it.

Well, then I'd have to throw my little Winnie the Pooh away Exodus 20 verse 4 and 5. This is the verse they used. I should not make unto the self any graven image. Or they never finished the verse that should not bow down Thyself to them the tree of knowledge of good and evil was not sinful in and of itself.

It was when they bowed down themselves to him. I'm not saying if you've got a little Buddha God burn it. But if someone comes to your garden and he's walking down the garden, he worships your tree. Just get him out the garden.

And cut down the tree because there's a demon behind it. So there's two questions. You notice I'm going fast. I'm looking at the clock. Why? These are the two questions that are many people's minds when I mentioned this movement among other movements.

Remember one. Why did the demons leave? Many of these preachers who preach the housecleaning movement they come around and they build a ministry upon saying that they came to this house. And there was a little boy in a bed and there was some picture on the bed.

And this child is having demons attacking him in the night. And he said there is because of that little thing in your cupboard and it's a little thing against the wall. And it's your your your sheet over there throw it away and they burnt it all and suddenly the demons left.

And they've got testimony after testimony after testimony after testimony after test me. Demons have stopped attacking physically people after they threw these things away and people say wow, this must be of God.

We have to start a whole movement. There was never in the Bible well in Africa Africans have demons that attack them and they cry and I don't know if you've seen a demon possessed person. It's something scary.

I fasted days over people like that. It's not a joke. But seeing these little children suddenly have attacks is something terrifying and you know what they do and when things go wrong in their lives. And when they sick they go to the who the witch doctor and what does the witch doctor say to them?

Well, there's certain things you have to do and when you do these things the demons will leave and guess what when they do these? Things the demons Leave. They don't attack them physically. When they do those things that the wish doctors say you see this is such an important principle.

That you have to how wish that every young man and Christian knew this. The devil is far more interested in you believing a lie than he is in you being physically attacked. And so he will withdraw himself you under minister.

He will withdraw himself physically if he sees that by withdrawing himself. Physically, you will believe the lie. They listen to this wish like I say. Well, I did what he said and now the demons live obviously is right.

And so they start to believe all the other lies that he says and so with these preachers. I've listened to the other videos so people throw these things away and the demons leave and then they say well.

This must be a man of God and they listen to his other teachings as they listen to those teachings. They are under the lies of Satan. Second question. Shouldn't we throw away Buddhist images Harry Potter Pokemon?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Throw it away burn it. But there's a concept that you have to understand. The devil wants you listen to this carefully. The devil wants you to throw away the good with the bad. If you throw away the bad for the wrong and scriptural reasons you will throw away the good too and you will enter into as Citizen.

If you throw away the bad for the wrong reasons then you will start for the same reasons to throw away the good and you will enter into what Satan wanted is. Right through history as citizens. Let's look at a few things.

Biblical Reasons for Rejecting Occultism and Violence

Harry Potter Scriptural reasons for throwing these things away. Exodus 22 verse 18 thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. Isaiah 5 is 20 warned to them that call evil good and good evil. They put darkness for light and light for darkness that put bitter for sweet and sweet for better.

Was there ever such a thing as a good witch? Throw it away. Pokemon ugly monsters. Finally brethren, you know, I've walked past those ugly monsters and Stationary, I didn't sense a demon, but you know, I didn't like about it.

It says in Philippians 4 verse 8 finally brethren whatsoever things are honest whatsoever things are just whatsoever. Things are lovely of good report. If there be any virtue if there be any praise think on these things.

You can throw those things away because they're not lovely because they ugly Buddha and witchcraft. Acts 19 verse 19 many brought curious arts books and burned them. If you know if someone comes to me and is it we've got a million Indians around me in Africa.

Not right by me and luckily. But if they come and they get saved and obviously they must throw away the little dolls in there. Whatever because that was their life and if there's things in people's lives that are ugly.

They're not say kids throw it away because it's ugly. Even if you haven't bowed down to those things. But you notice something number one by throwing things away for scriptural Bible in context reason number one We have not thrown away the good with the bad and number two We've Not gotten into fear.

We've dealt with the fear aspect. I'm going to miss a page here for time. We've removed the fear Aspect. I was in South Africa in a house in Middleburg, South Africa. And I remember seeing this old lady and she was sitting there and she was bringing me tea and cookies.

And she had a little wooden and I I don't think I should ever have a wooden dog in my house but this is a little lovely little wooden dog that the Africans might and She said the pastor of the church was preaching and he said there's a demon beyond every image that has ever made.

And she said this is the demon behind my little and she was literally shivering from fear that little dog. I said, yeah, madam, and I patted the dog, you know. There's nothing behind that but the devil uses fear.

Through Timothy 1 verse 7 for God has not given us the spirit of fear but of power and of a sound mind. Now there are many things which Christians should throw out for good for right reasons. Which they don't let me repeat there are many things which Christians should throw out for right reasons, which they don't.

I'm gonna name a few violent TV games. Psalm 11 verse 5 the Lord trieth the righteous but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. I don't care. There's a demon beyond that stuff or not.

You don't even have to find out just throw it out. He that loveth violence. No, I don't kill people splat splat blood on the ground brother. That's not of God sensuousness people watch so many movies.

That is Satan's pulpit. Movies. In modest clothing, I wish I had time. I don't have time to go through how the Bible. I can prove from the Bible that. If you look at the Greek and Hebrew and just general manners and customs and things like that.

You can prove that God's ideal for clothing was not to have and I'm not just talking about the modesty versus not to have. Relative standards as far as going to the beach. I'm better than her. So I'm alright I've got one piece.

She's got two pieces. So I'm modest. It isn't like that. It's far more and I can prove from the Bible in context scripture. There was a church in South Africa Nelstrom and this church heard a video about housecleaning and as they listen to this Sermon the youth said wow, this is amazing.

There's demons beyond everything and they started to throw away the teddy bears and their dolls and the ex-girlfriends pictures and they poke Among and the Harry Potter and they throw away all these things.

But when I came to that church and I saw those youth and I saw the sin that was in their lives. Then I realized this church does not need housecleaning is heart clean girls going with unsaved boys. But oh, they were proud of the many things they threw away.

With demons beyond it what you throw away throw away for Bible in context reason or you'll throw away the good with the bad. Enter a citizen and it will not help your heart. I'd like to ask a question now.

Extra-Biblical Rules and Christian Freedom

Can we say everything not in the Bible is wrong? Some people might think that's a trick question. And I say no. We can say everything the Bible says is wrong is wrong. We can say everything extra biblical that people say we have to have for spiritual life salvation or spiritual growth is wrong.

In other words, they link it to the spirituality. If you don't have this blue breast Dress then you are not going to be able to go to heaven. Everything we can say that everything of Satan another gospel another Jesus another spirit is wrong.

But we cannot say that everything not in the Bible is wrong because then you open yourself up to as citizen. And I went to Bible College. Many students didn't want to keep to the Bible College rules like getting up at 6 o 'clock in the morning going to bed at 10 O 'clock at night spending three hours and praying something like that.

Why. Because it's not in the Bible. I heard one child say mother. Is that in the Bible. Submission is in the Bible some people throw away the cars and electricity. South Africa we have automatic Ascetics because our entire nation didn't have electricity for months almost.

Let me ask a little question about that blue dress. I mentioned earlier number one. If I say you must wear a blue dress to go to heaven. That's wrong. Number two, if you wear it out of choice, that's fine.

Number three, if you if your works asked asked you to wear it as a uniform as long as it's modest. Then it's fine. Now, please none of you wear a blue dress because there's no girls. Yep. The next point the Bible is not against.

Tradition, Legalism, and the Lord's Day

This is quite a shock to some people against tradition. But I'm gonna explain myself before you shoot me. Let me explain every point that sounds like I'm wrong. Jeremiah 35 verse 11 to 19 John and Ab says to his sons that you shall not drink wine.

None not ye neither ye nor your sons forever. Start a tradition none of you ever. Your sons your sons your sons your sons are not allowed to drink wine. And I think it's a good thing to tell everybody not to drink wine.

But that was a tradition now Jeremiah 35 verse 11 to 19 clearly says what does God say? Oh you sinful person for having a tradition. No, it says therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man before the Lord forever.

So the question comes. When does a tradition? Become sin if you let's read mark seven verse seven. Sorry. How be it in vain? Do you worship me? Teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. If you number one have a tradition that is equal to the Bible.

It's a come you say it's a command of the Bible and it's your tradition like the Catholics do then that is wrong. Number two if your tradition goes against the Bible like mark seven. Where they disobeyed and I did honor their parents that is wrong.

But if a church for instance just to give an example decides on May 3rd every year. They're gonna come together and they're gonna learn the scriptures and we're gonna make it a kind of tradition as long as they don't say you need it to grow spiritually and as long as they don't say you have to do it if You miss it once you're going to hell.

Then that is fine. And I'm gonna give you a few examples from history. South Africa. Andrew Murray. Who have you know the great. When I saw the great Andrew Murray, that's that's just he's a humble man.

He died. But he was our greatest revivalist like you have your deal Moody's and your George Whitfield's we had our Andrew Murray. He started a tradition. Terrifying person how sinful. He started a tradition.

He said we need a week of meetings. There's churches across this land. They don't have godly ministers. We need a week of meetings in each church at Princeton time at Pentecost in the Jewish calendar and we're going to each year have a series of meetings across this land in Different churches he started a tradition that we can preach the gospel.

Up until this day about a hundred years later every single year across our land at Pinkster time Pentecost. They have a series of meetings out of tradition where they bring in preachers to preach at the gospel and Across our land you can see how God blessed that the people were saved in that week.

God blessed a tradition. Now I'm going to get very controversial and I'd like to just ask you do not stand up and leave before I explain myself. Concerning what we know Christmas Day and Easter weekend.

Christmas Day, by the way, I Know Christmas is the high is a word for the One of the high messes of Rome, but let's just get into it. First of all, I'm gonna explain this very carefully. So don't shoot me.

I know Americans have guns. My mom was saved in Christmas Day that doesn't make Christmas Day, right? But many people have been saved on Christmas Day as they preach the gospel across our land. My mom was saved through the Christmas story and God gave his only son as a gift and she came and she got saved and She has the fruit of one job.

Before I go into why Chris was things of Christmas Day, let's read Romans 14 verse 5 and 6. One man esteemeth one day above another. Another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be persuaded in his own mind.

He that regardeth not to the day to the Lord. He doth not regard it. Let us not therefore judge one another anymore. Some people before I even start to explain they say but Roy what about the Easter Bunny?

What about Father Christmas? What about Santa Claus? Well, I'm totally utterly against the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus and Father Christmas. Because I remember as a child or once visited some people not my family.

But I'm some people and they dressed up as Father Christmas. I remember that was all I ever thought of it wasn't Jesus. It was Father Christmas. It draws away from Christ. But now let's look at Christmas Day.

Scripture its scripturality number one the date number two the name number three and number four the origin scriptural. There is no command in Scripture that says we must keep Christmas Day and Therefore no one has to keep it.

We all agree on that Roman says we may keep a day if we want to do anything as long as it's not Satan like Halloween. It was celebrated in Scripture that we know this Matthew 2 by the wise men's response.

Luke chapter 2 among the angels. Luke chapter 2 Note of the Simon and Anna the wise men celebrated it. Quite a long time after the actual birth number two the date some people say it was brought in by Catholics and pagans December 25th, if you look into church history long before the Catholic Church even existed.

Hippolytus 880 to 236 decided to sit down and he was a godly man I believe and he said let's figure out when was Christ's birth. Taking the facts he had at that time at one but in between that time and the verses in the Bible.

He tried kind of eventually figured out that it was December 25th and they did not celebrate a day called Christmas because that name was given by the Catholics. They just celebrated the birth of Christ, which according to Romans we may celebrate a day.

See the name and origin. The term comes from Christ's mass a high mass given in the Roman Catholic Church later in history. But he has a question. Can you throw away something because of a later term given to it?

Do we throw away the Holy Communion because later the Catholics made it a mess? By the way, I'm quite fine and no one has a celebration of Christ's birth, but we must be very careful When we become ultra legalistic about terms pagan or Catholic in origin and I'm going to show why because if we connect everything to origins, then we're going to throw everything out.

Names, Translations, and the Authority of Scripture

The days of the week are heathen gods Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday God the God of Thor thunder Saturday Sunday the God of the Sun we get together and Celebrate Sunday the God of the Sun. There's a movement across the world which says we cannot use the word Jesus or Jehovah because the original was Joy Yahweh and Yeshua and If we change it, the Bible says you may not change the name of God.

We are literally sinning. I Just thought to myself when I went to Acts 4 verse 12 Concerning that Neither is there salvation in any other? For there's none other name in heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.

Just think of that verse for a moment if Jesus Christ is not good enough because it's not the original Name, then I'm not saved. There's none of the name given on the men and the heaven whereby we must be saved.

My mother was saved the revivalist was saved. We were all saved and we had the fruit of one John, which is not a manual how to live. It's a manual to know that you saved we were saved in the name of Jesus Christ and therefore according to this verse Jesus Christ is good enough for God.

If you look at the power of Babel who split the languages. God split the languages. I can bet you that he didn't just say make one language More any like an African hello and and and so on in different languages at the moment.

He split the languages the names changed. John became your harness in another Germanic language. If there are movements in South Africa that actually throw away The King James Bible because they look into history and see that the versification Which came before we had the King James? was brought in by a Catholic the numbers in the Bible verse 1 verse 2 verse 3 the original manuscripts didn't have punctuation didn't have Versification for hundreds of years.

We are nothing like that. And now they saw a city that they throw away this beloved book because of that I'm so glad the Catholics never made the call because then none of us could drive. I was going to Let us look Who now I'm gonna get into trouble the Christmas tree see and The Sabbath there are two cults the Jehovah's Witnesses in the seventh-day Adventist.

Seventh-Day Adventism, Sunday Worship, and Covenants

They call me in Africa the devil's Servant the seventh-day Adventist. Although they call many people that it's a very aesthetic movement. I don't if you know that a very aesthetic movement. They throw away the good with the bad.

They have many high standards. But listen to their reasoning. I'm against Hollywood. I'm against television but I've listened to their videos and read their books for hours and hours and I'll study through the entire Bible from backwards and Forwards to be able to answer their questions not these little things.

I believe there's foundational lies, which you have to bring down just doctrinal lies, but you know what they say Hollywood. You know why Hollywood is sinful. Because Harry Potter's wand was made from Hollywood.

Therefore we should not watch Hollywood. Satanists Use channeling to get to demons so televisions have channels and Therefore there are demons in the television. This is what I've heard from respected very powerful seventh-day Adventist preachers concerning the Sabbath.

They brought in a lot of lies and concerning the Christmas tree and By the way, nowhere in the Bible does say we have to have a Christmas tree. So please don't say I said that Constantine they say was the first person to make Sunday Sabbath law and It's the mark of the beast and I can show you how through the Bible they use verses to do that studied in depth.

But this is a lie Ignatius long before Constantine Christians were Celebrating Sunday as a Sabbath or the celebration of Christ's resurrection where they rested Ignatius 30 to 107 ad just in his 110 ad to to Leonis 145 ad.

If you ever meet and I meet many people influenced by the seventh-day Adventist and they wonder should we keep? Saturday as a Sabbath I said, did you know like Paul got that says there's three law systems the law system for a couple Adam and Eve.

The law system for a nation. The law and the law system for a people. God's people the kingdom of God, which is the commands of Christ. That ties them it says in Matthew 28 verse 19 and 20 in the name of the Father Son and Holy Ghost and Teach them the law.

No. Teach them to observe all things whatsoever. I have commanded you Romans 7. Romans 7 that great chapter of God Says well, we are under the first husband. Basically one in my own words under that husband's authority.

But when that husband dies and we marry another we are under our new husband's authority. Never we are dead to the law by the body of Christ that we might be married and That we might serve him that loved us.

Sorry, I didn't quite it perfectly, but that's basically it. Dead to the law by the body of Christ. We know that we must keep the commands of Christ. We know this. But in Acts chapter 14, it says we don't have to keep the law.

If we had to keep the law the ten commandments as Christians then we have to keep Saturday as a Sabbath point. Because it's very hard to get away from it being Saturday. Now I'm gonna come to I by the way, my dad has taught me and I agree.

I don't even swim on Sunday. So don't you say I don't agree with Sunday, but in the Bible if you study there are different covenants different covenants and. Every single time people don't realize this every single time God made a covenant with a person or something.

Then there was a sign that came with that covenant right through the Bible number one. God had a covenant with the earth. What was the sign? The rainbow. God had a covenant with Abraham. What is the sign?

Circumcision. God in a covenant in Leviticus the second time that we read the Ten Commandments. With Israel the day that ye came out of Egypt. I made a covenant with you and the sign was the Sabbath based upon.

And talking about Saturday Sabbath based upon the seventh day of rest. Seventh day of interest in their books like the fourth dilemma. I've read about doctors and things like this. They'll say that Adam until then kept the Sabbath and they use a verse in Jeremiah, which says that your father's kept the Sabbath and the father's is terror and Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and Adam and.

Yet that term if you go everyone right through the Bible looking at that term. It always talks of not every father but of specific group of people in the wilderness. It was your father's that disobeyed their your father's your father's.

It was never talking of all your father's kept the Sabbath. God according to John my father Worketh hitherto and so I work that work in the Greek that labor in the Greek means to labor to toil to sweat.

Hitherto and so I work even God since the first Sabbath didn't arrest every Sabbath. But he expected it of the Jewish nation as that sign. We are under the commands of Christ, which is a much higher law system as Christians through history we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ in keeping Sunday as a day of rest and a day to worship God.

The Christmas Tree as a Christian Illustration

Now I'm going to get into trouble. Has anybody got their guns yet? The Christmas tree forgive me for preaching this. I feared to preach this seriously. Because I know that it could close doors on me and I love to preach and If you take away my right to preach you take away everything except for my Jesus.
