An early Christmas message from Jesus … Enjoy!

[John Zain]

To all who believe in Me, Jesus, your Savior … and also to those who do not …

At the center of an atom is a positively-charged nucleus.
At a relatively great distance from the nucleus are one or more negatively-charged electrons.
Electrons circle around the nucleus at an incredible speed.
This is similar to a fan blade … both the atom and the fan appear to be totally SOLID.

The Force-A of attraction between the electron (negative) and the nucleus (positive)
must be exactly equal to the Force-B velocity of the moving electron …
in order for it to maintain its’ perfect circular pattern.

IF I was to command, “All electrons slow down” …
Forces-A would be greater than Forces-B, causing all electrons to collapse into their nuclei.

IF I was to command, “All electrons speed up” …
Forces-B would be greater than Forces-A, causing all electrons to fly off into space.

IF I was to command either of these two things …
all atoms would disintegrate (disappear), leaving basically nothing at all.

Actually, your molecular scientists say only one-millionth of an atom consists of solid matter,
and all the rest is empty space!

And these precious verses of Holy Scripture describe what I am doing now …

“All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things,
and in Him all things consist (hold together).” (Colossians 1:15-17)

“… upholding (sustaining) all things by the word of His power …” (Hebrews 1:2-3).

Yes, I can do with you what I wish.
I could turn you into solid gold, or I could make you disappear altogether.

But, this Christmas I think that I’ll leave you as you are!

I love you! … Merry Christmas!

Hi! 'John Zain'
Thank you for the nice Post. It was a joy to read.

The acceptance of Christmas as a religious holiday has grown even among those who do not claim to be Christian, in such lands as Japan whereby only 1.2 percent profess Christianity but some 71 percent are agnostic or atheistic, Hong Kong, in which only 7.9 percent profess to be Christian but are noted as being 74 percent agnostic or atheistic. Why ? Simply because it is the largest money attraction day of the year, helping businesses to profit though not believing in the holiday.

Does Christmas have any validity as being established by Jesus Christ ? Many see it as nothing more than commercialistic, being embellished over time. For example, where did Santa Claus come from that has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus Christ ?

The Encarta Encyclopedia said that the "familiar image of Santa Claus is a North American invention of the 19th century, (and) it has ancient European roots and continues to influence the celebration of Christmas throughout the world. The popular image of Santa Claus developed from literary descriptions by (American) novelist Washington Irving (1783-1859) and poet Clement Clarke Moore (1779-1863) and the fanciful drawings of illustrator Thomas Nast (1840-1902)."(Microsoft Encarta Reference Library 2005) The modern concept of Christmas, with Santa Claus being the hefty fellow, was embellished by Coca-Cola in 1931 and Rudolph, the ninth reindeer, with a red and shiny nose, was invented in 1939 by an advertising writer for the Montgomery Ward Company.

And of December 25 as Jesus birthday, The Chicago Tribune (December 1992) noted some of the historical background, stating that "ironically, the holiday that Christians now complain is being co-opted by commercialism traces its roots to a pagan festival that was taken over by Christianity. The first reported observance of Christmas as the birth of Jesus Christ was more than 300 years after the event. In the 4th Century, Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire, and, scholars believe, Christians set Jesus’ birthdate at Dec. 25 to coincide with existent celebrating by non-Christians."

University of Utah professor Russell Belk said that "rather than battle against the pagan holidays, they decided to join them and try to replace them,’. . . ‘The pagan holidays replaced by Christianity were the Roman celebrations of Saturnalia—which were carnivalesque celebrations with gift-giving—and later the Yule celebrations in England and Germany that celebrated the winter solstice."

Does the Bible provide any guidelines here ? At Luke 2, it gives an indicator of when Jesus was born, saying that "there were also in that same country shepherds living out of doors and keeping watches in the night over their flocks"(Luke 2:8) By the middle of October, shepherds begin taking their flocks in anticipation of colder weather coming. By the middle of December, the cold rainy weather has arrived.

At Ezra 10, it says of when the nation of Israel gathered outside for a convention: "So all the men of Judah and Benjamin collected themselves together at Jerusalem within three days, that is, in the ninth month (Jewish month of Chislev, corresponding to mid November to mid December) on the twentieth day of the month, and all the people kept sitting in the open place of the house of the true God, shivering because of the matter and on account of the showers of rain."(Ezra 10:9) Hence, it is apparent that Jesus was not born on December 25, but evidence indicates around the first of October.(see Dan 9:27)

The apostle Paul wrote: "What fellowship do righteousness and lawlessness have ? Or what sharing does light have with darkness ? Further, what harmony is there between Christ and Belial ("Satan", Syriac Pesh itta, Christian Aram., fifth cent. C.E.) ?....For we are a temple of the living God; just as God said: "I shall reside among them and walk among them, and I shall be their God, and they will be my people."(Lev 26:12) " ' Therefore get out from among them, and separate yourselves, ' says Jehovah, ' and quit touching the unclean thing ' ".(Isa 52:11) " ' I will take you in.' "(2 Cor 6:14-17)

The OP boarders on outright blasphemy, you, or anyone, do not have the right to imagine to speak on behalf of our Lord and Savior as you have so flippantly done. Have you no consideration of just who and what Jesus is and represents???

 

[John Zain]

... you, or anyone, do not have the right to imagine to speak on behalf of our Lord and Savior ...

I am sorry if what I have written borders on disgusting you,
but I believe evangelists have been sent forth to speak for Jesus.

BTW, do you understand the OP?

Perhaps you're still upset over the "Proof" thread?

I also disliked the post as speaking "for" Jesus. We are to share the Good News of Christ, we are to share what Jesus said, quote verses in the Bible, there is no value or good in making up a story from Jesus, His words as quoted in the Bible are perfect already.
Is there something in the OP, you believe I missed?

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Now this [to me] is an early Christmas message.

Shalom!!!

Almighty God, i.e. the Word (the Logos) Jesus Christ, inspired all of the Scriptures.
He inspired, and in effect wrote, the 2 verses that I quoted.
They are from Him ... for us to understand more about Him.
But, I am sorry if I offended you.

P.S. Believe me, MANY "Christians" have NOT responded well in da past to this information
I have presented about the atom, the illusion that we are actually physical, etc.
and IMO, it is quite a pathetic situation that "Christians" can't handle this!

And ditto with the unwillingness of "Christians" to handle the information in the "Proof" thread.

 

[biggandyy]

Perhaps it isn't handled well because we consider it pop-culture pseudo-intellectual technobabble. Even if it does mean something it doesn't matter a hill of beans in the ultimate scheme of things, IMHO.

IMHO, the whole thing places more emphasis on who Jesus really is, which is:
not only the Creator of all things, but the Sustainer (now) of all things as well.

However, I shall endeavor in da future to keep the technobabble to a minimum.
