YES VIRGINIA, THERE REALLY IS A CHRISTMAS:
INTRODUCTION:
This article was sent for publication without charge to numerous newspapers
and wire services in the 1993 and 1994 Christmas seasons. All publications
(secular) refused to publish it or ignored it's submission. In 1994 250
copies were distributed via U.S. Mail
all across the globe to Christian and Messianic Jewish Organizations, all of
which
ignored their receipt of it. This article spawned the creation and recording
of the audio
cassette "HEAR THE HEART BEAT?" in 1994 which was distributed, also free of
charge to 72 organizations and political entities. Responses received were
from Hillary
Clinton, who was thankful for the gift and appreciated the concern; from
Jesse Helms
who was thankful for the gift and agreed with the concern; and from Mike
Huckabee
Lt. Governor of the State of Arkansas (and a working and ordained Baptist
Minister) who
was very thankful of the gift and advised of his enjoyment at listening to it
while driving the state in his car.
A FREE copy of the tape HEAR THE HEART BEAT "The first lesson in the earthly
life
of Jesus Christ" is available by sending a self addressed stamped padded
envelope to Triomedia % 2614 South 57th Suite 9 Fort Smith Arkansas 72903. No
monetary gifts
are ever accepted.
In light of the world's condition it is imperative that a preface be placed
with the article.
Following the article "Yes Virginia, There Really Is A Christmas" the point
made in the
preface will be concluded.
PREFACE:
Have you ever wondered how evil ever gets anything accomplished? Think about
it. Everything evil says, does or attempts is a lie. So therefore nothing can
ever really
work out right. And nothing can be said, done or attempted by evil that is
NOT a lie.
Consider the abortion issue.
Abortion is an instrument of evil that has been accepted by humans the world
over as:
1)a means to an end of population control,
2) a woman's right to control over her own body and
3) an anti male pro female statement.
Given that the intentions are in the eye of the perceiver:
1) Population control is already defined by God but to accept it means self
control and accepting responsibility for one's own actions which could never
be tolerated today.
2) Females have every right to control what is their own body. All of the
smoke screen efforts by those who would make abortion a women's issue is not
for the purpose of supporting women's causes it is for the purpose of
supporting evil.
3) An attempt to continue and cloud the issues of what man and woman really
means in scripture thereby attempting to negate the purpose of life itself by
refusing to admit that life can exist within a physical body while also
developing within one that is other than one's own self.
Following the article you will learn how evil can never win. It only looks
like it. That is deceptionl.
YES VIRGINIA, THERE REALLY IS A CHRISTMAS
Many years ago a well meaning journalist wrote an article to answer little
Virginia's question regarding Santa Claus. Ever since the media has reprinted
that article each year to show how Santa Claus does indeed exist in our
hearts. But wasn't Virginia's question really more one of hope? For you see
Virginia, there really is a Christmas too. We adults just haven't understood
it very well.
Year after year Christmas seeps deeper and deeper into the minds of children
as a time for receiving gifts. Children's advertising is directed at the
child to receive. So these little ones look forward to what they get and
compare notes with their peers. The children who do not receive feel worse
each year. All because what began as a celebration, a mass, of God's gift to
the world has turned into the saviour of only the merchants.
News anchors will report on sales trends and how stores consider the
Christmas season to be their best hope for profits the whole year long, but
you will hear, if you listen, a misunderstanding that is pure deceit.
Reporters will file stories of church and state as the arguments surface each
year over their separation, but you will hear, if you listen, that those are
the only times a remote mention of the purpose of Christmas ever makes the
news.
Now don't get me wrong Virginia. Any time of the year that affords the
opportunity to give some sort of joy to man regardless of the reason is worth
the time and effort but if you listen you will know the real meaning of
Christmas. Then you will understand how your parents and how all adults have
misunderstood the greatest day in the history of the planet.
You will understand the blase' attitude toward a doctor who assists in taking
lives, whether they be delivered or not. You will understand the lack of
caring and the total disregard for human life that results in the biggest
crime wave ever to hit the globe. You will understand perhaps most of all how
so many otherwise caring and loving people could be deceived into accepting
abortion. It's all told in the true Christmas meaning.
The entire earthly life of Jesus The Christ is a lesson to mankind. And that
lesson began when John the Baptist was born. The birth of John and of The
Christ is the first lesson from Jesus. The first example set by Him so that
man could live together. It applies to those who accept Christ directly and
to those who are still waiting. It applies to those who worship God by a
different name and to those who have never known God. In fact the true
meaning of Christmas is the strongest, yet most disregarded lesson in the
human life of Jesus, The Christ.
Churches celebrate Christmas with nativity scenes, plays and sermons of an
event that took place nine months after Christmas. It is no wonder the courts
of the world have permitted the things they have condoned. After all, the
conception of The Christ is talked about just in passing, as a step to reach
the glorious picture of a stable.
Have you ever stopped and wondered how a preacher can go from the story of
Mary and God's supreme gift to the story of the nativity in a single breath?
If you were giving birth you would have to wait nine months to finish that
story. Mary did.
For you see Christmas is the celebration of the birth of The Christ. THE
BIRTH OF THE CHRIST. Not His delivery. As life for The Christ began in the
beginning. The conception of Jesus's earthly body was only a placement, a
tabernacle, a temple. Since our souls are a gift of our father and mother and
are part of them our life begins with the creation of our souls. Which is not
when the incubated body is delivered from it's host mother. Life for us
begins at the conception.
Mary was the mother of The Christ but at no time was The Christ ever Mary.
Even when connected to her, Jesus was the Son of God.
So as you wrestle with decisions in your life, listen to what The Christ said
and do not allow yourself to be deceived. By declaring that life begins only
at delivery man has REMOVED God.
If you call yourself a Christian, even if you do not live totally as The
Christ did, even if you sin, as all humans do, you can at least hold true to
the FIRST lesson from God in the earthly life of His Son. If you call
yourself a Christian you must accept that God's part in the birth of Jesus
holds a much greater lesson than that of His delivery.
Therefore when you celebrate Christmas this year you will know that you
celebrate the gift of life of God's own son and that because of that first
lesson in The Christ's life: Life begins at conception and BIRTH is at
conception. It is told in the story of John and in the story of Jesus. And it
is the most important. If it wasn't so important Virginia, do you think so
much effort would have been made to hide it?
Let us hope that male and female all across the earth take heed of this first
lesson. An act consumated by His Holy Spirit. God. In the placing of His Holy
Spirit. Jesus. And let us celebrate Christmas for what it is and not what it
has become. Yes Virginia there really is a Christmas. Do you finally
understand it?
CONCLUSION:
In the preface it was stated that evil can only do wrong. A lie is the only
thing than can come out of evil. So therefore it is with abortion. Abortion
is an act of evil to upset God's children and to kill them. But since life
begins at conception an abortion only takes a child of God in preparation, it
does not kill them. In fact it sends totally clean and balanced souls of God
home to the Father and the Son. So the lie has not worked. Plus due to the
curse placed on satan to bruise his own heel and to bruise his father's head
the children of evil that are aborted are simply destroyed. As there never
was life in them.
You see, God always wins in the end.
P.S. A copy of this article and a copy of the tape were sent by a special
selected inside source to The National Right To Life Organization. They
ignored the article and the tape. If you want to end abortion......expose the
lie.
