Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 15, 2022

Again, I want to remind you that God gave us the ten commandments to tell us what HE LIKES, and what HE DISLIKES.

This is important, because it would not be fair for God to hold us responsible on the judgment day, if we did not KNOW WHAT IS and WHAT IS NOT acceptable unto him.

Now I understand that Christmas and Easter Jesus are the same Jesus…but the point I am trying to make is that the world is more comfortable celebrating a baby in manger rather than ...read more
