Journey into Living God's Way - a lesson  There four critical spiritual facts  Romans 1:18-32 18   For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19   Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed  it  unto them. 20   For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made,  even  his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21   Because that, when they knew God, they glorified  him  not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22   Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23   And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 ...

                                                                   Christmas?   Christmas, Easter the Sabbath day bring disputes over whether they are PAGAN or is it the right day. So earlier in the last few weeks I overheard a conversation between a sister in Christ when she tried to witness to a person. As she was witnessing he asked her "but what about the Sabbath when do you worship" and she admitted on Sunday. The person then said "what about Christmas do you celebrate" and she said "yes" and he immediately began to talk about the fact that sunday was not the sabbath and Christmas is pagan day and we do not know when Jesus was actually born. The message of the Gospel could have been sidetracked as she tried to defend celebrating Christmas and Sundays...

Catagory :  Traditional Christian song.   Question : Is it biblical?   The Song also contains the truth of gospel as understood by those Christians who believe that salvation is granted through the work of Jesus death on Calvary and that once the need to do good works or keeping laws is added it dilutes the truth of the gospel.
