We Wish You A Merry CHRISTmas
From Thanksgiving through New Year's Day, our
lives are filled with holiday celebrations, meaningful sharing
of love & friendship, and multiple expressions of praise &
worship all related to the REASON for the SEASON!
While the world strives to be politically correct
and carefully publishes expressions of "happy holidays,"
"season's greetings," and sells a "holiday tree" for America's
"X-Mas" decorations, The Apostles offer no apology for
emphasizing the CHRIST of CHRISTmas! He IS the reason for
the season. Regardless of what Washington's elected
officials want to insist, we insist that America IS a CHRISTian
nation, clearly & historically founded on traditional Judeo-CHRISTian
values. While we give freedom of religion and offer the
opportunity for people to worship in the way they choose, we
still maintain the designation of our country as a CHRISTian
nation. If the politicians and judiciary refuse to
acknowledge this historical fact, "we the people" still do.
CHRISTmas is the birthday of Jesus, the CHRIST
child. It is not the country's dominant retail & marketing
season. It is not the corporate world's annual party &
promotion quarter. It is not the community's seasonal lawn
decoration commemoration awards. It is one of the primary
CHRISTian holidays for a CHRISTian nation.
It is our prayer that you enjoy lots of
meaningful celebration moments with family and friends; that you
are blessed and encouraged with many services of worship &
praise; and that you strive in every way to keep CHRIST in
CHRISTmas, so that all your neighbors will know, "for me and my
house, we will serve the Lord!"
