Not only do I create and perform musical works with all my heart and soul, I'm at least as passionate about writing down my thoughts and feelings. Reasoning, meditating and analysing is all part of this and by putting it down in words Jah has enabled me to share it with others.

Celebrating "Christ Mass"
A NESSIAN DREAD ARTICLE

It's around that time of the year in which people in Babylon in one way or another are affected by what is called "holliday season". Especially, these days, they wish each other some thing called "merry christmas".

They visit building with steeples and signs which say "church" and they gather themselves around a tree which they cut from the woods and deck it with silver, gold, and so on.

They sing songs for the tree, telling it how beautifull it is and so on. The tree is the provider of gifts as well, by the way.

Oh yes, and they read portions from the Bible as well. Portions about a timein the year when the shepherds were outside, so it can hardly be december. Stories about the birth of Yesus Kristos, our Lord and Saviour.

One part of scripture is never read, and so if you will let me, I will quote it right here:

Jer 10:3 For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
Jer 10:4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
Jer 10:5 They [are] upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also [is it] in them to do good.

Now, I know many people who celebrate the birth of Kristos and they celebrate mainly what He has done for us, especially on the cross. I think they do a wrong thing when they "celebrate christ mass", but it is their own responsibility. I cannot agree with them, and I think they have absolutely no basis to do what they do.

As the Old Testament scripture allready shows, the whole "Christ Mass" issue has nothing to do with the birth of Yesus Kristos. For it is a thing which was allready practiced in the Old Testament times.

Closer analysis clearly shows, that it has not so much to do with the birth of our Lord and Saviour, the Divine Messiah Yesus, but with the birth of the Sun God, who was perceived nine months before, "co-accidently" when we celebrate Easter, the goddes Ishtar, with her fertility eggs and bunnies.

And with that, we land in the bizarre world of Paganism.

Just like the Bible Scripture talked about Paganism.

But how and why did it come to pass that now Christians and "Christians" celebrate this Pagan -basically- ritual of worshipping the Pagan gods?

For this, I would reccommend the following interview in MP3 format from THE EDGE RADIO: CLICK TO DOWNLOAD
