REBEL WITHIN A “CLAUS”

Santa Claus is based on many lies. That is
why so many born again Christians call him
“Satan Claus.” After all, Satan was called
the father of lies by our Lord Jesus Christ.
John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Surprisingly, many professing Christians do not have a problem with promoting the lies which Satan Santa Claus are all based. Beyond the fact that there is no fat omniscient elf being with flying reindeer, there are more serious lies. Blasphemous lies of omission being told.
Many, like Kirk Cameron, would like to promote and even SELL the idea that “Saint Nicholas” was a Christian, as he is doing in his new film release Saving Christmas. They claim this is just one reason why we should ignore history, The Bible, and the Holy Spirit to then embrace Santa Claus and believe in modern “Christianized /revised definitions” of any and all Christmas traditions. Was he? Is that true? Or was he a Roman Catholic Bishop? Millions of martyred TRUE saints knew the difference, and they have the Holy Bible to back up that fact. If they took a softer, gentler, less honest approach to the absolute truth in God’s word, they would have lived longer lives! Perhaps “Christianized” a few pagan holidays, to spread the (false) word, too! What were THEY thinking? Kirk’s ilk must think they should have lightened up, and not been such party-poopers.
Maybe they knew that the Roman Empire/Catholic Church is the whore of Babylon, depicted in Revelation 17. Maybe they cared more about pleasing God and remaining faithful to His word, than pleasing men. Maybe they didn’t fear those who could kill the body, as Jesus warned:
Luke 12:4
And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
Luke 12:5
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
The Roman Catholic Church preaches another gospel. They are accursed.
Galatians 1:8
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Bible believing born-again Christians are to have NO FELLOWSHIP with the unfruitful works of darkness.
Ephesians 5:11
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
We are not called to take the unfruitful works of darkness, and “make them Christian”, but rather REPROVE THEM. You can’t reprove them and partake / celebrate them at the same time. You can’t take a LIE and use it to ‘spread the gospel’. And why should we!? For the sake of traditions of men is God’s WORD made of no effect?? God’s word is powerful. Satan’s lies are weak when compared to the TRUTH of JESUS CHRIST!! He does not need help from Satan to spread the gospel.
But when professing Christians mingle the truth with Satan’s lies, HE (Satan) gains the advantage, not Christ. It’s compromise. And when popular and quirky professing Christians like Kirk Cameron mix the lies with some truth, it can do even more for Satan. Because it is SIN to ignore what you know is truth, in order to gain more ground in the world’s eyes. That is worldly pragmatism.
James 4:17
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
There is no such thing as Biblical pragmatism. There is TRUTH, and there are lies.
Santa Claus is based on evil pagan lies. He is an amalgamation of mythic pagan gods
mixed with more modern lore about a Catholic bishop.
Legend records that during the
pagan festival of Yule in
December, Odin the Viking god
of war, would fly through the
night sky, leading a group of spirit
creatures in an event called the
Wild Hunt- with his hunting cry
of “Ho Ho!”
Odin rides Sleipnir, a magical horse
with eight legs. Santa Claus flies through
the sky at night on a sleigh with eight
magicreindeer, laughing “Ho Ho Ho!”
In many early depictions
outside of the U.S.A., Santa had a devilish and evil servant named Knecht Ruprecht, or
Krampus. When St. Nicholas and Krampus/Ruprecht arrived on St. Nicholas eve (Dec. 5), the children were asked to perform dancing or singing tricks.
Good children would receive gifts from St. Nicholas. Bad children would be beaten
and whipped by Ruprecht. If they were really naughty, they would be carried off by him in his sack to hell.
These are only a few examples of the dark Satanic and pagan history associated with this Catholic holiday. But just as many problems exist within the “Americanized”
version of Santa Claus. It is sinful to LIE to children about this false god, who “sees you when you are sleeping, knows when you are naughty and nice”, is all powerful, and brings gifts to mankind from on high. Those who are bad get brimstone, coal, that is. (They don’t really get coal, they usually get what they want even though they are badly behaved.) Little devils, or elves, are his helpers. Santa has white hair, wears a red vesture, and comes in the clouds, like a thief in the night. These sound like characteristics of God on His throne, and the second coming of The Lord Jesus Christ!
It is a mockery of truth.
But even BEFORE the mythical
Santa Claus was an entrenched part
of the folly filled festival, most Bible
believing Christians were against
celebrating the sinful pagan holiday.
The Puritans banned Christmas from
the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1659.
This remained in effect for many decades.
Baptists also forbade its observance due
to the unbiblical and Satanic origins of
the traditions! The new message is that
“Bah Humbug fundamentalists” should
just shut up lighten up about the truth.
Recently Kirk Cameron even made
the case that Christians should celebrate
Halloween! Then in a promotional video
clip released on November 5, 2014, called
“Do You Love Santa Claus?” Cameron
opines that “maybe someone like Santa
Claus is actually on our team.” Soon after
he released a follow-up video promotion
detailing the “history” of the figure of
Santa Claus- the Roman Catholic Bishop
Nicholas of Myra, Turkey under Pope Sylvester.
Even if Saint Nicholas was a saved man,
later claimed by the Roman Catholics as
their own symbol; what does HE have to
do with the birth of Jesus Christ and this
pagan winter solstice being combined?
More importantly what doe JESUS CHRIST
have to do with this witches sabbat called Yule!?
Or the lusty pagan Roman feast of Saturn,
Saturnalia!? Would this same Nicholas be
pleased that God is being mocked by this
combination of the Holy with the profane?
Not ifhe was a child of The Living God!
Back to the film itself; examine the
official promotional poster for Kirk
Cameron’s new movie called
Saving Christmas: Put Christ Back
in Christmas. As a graphic designer I
will tell you this couldn’t happen by
accident.
There are occult symbols prominently
displayed, (and also some not so
prominently,) but they are not subliminal
by any means. These are there for a reason.
To the right of Kirk’s head, the five
pointed star ornament is upside down.
To the left of Kirk’s fist clenching the
candy cane, the ornament has three sixes,
and an upside down five pointed star
(pentagram). For some reason, the Holy family / nativity scene is inside a crystal ball!
Atop the Christmas tree is a Catholic cross, with interesting ‘hardware’ mounting it to the tree. (Maybe some ex-Disney artists had something to do with this design.)
The original title of the holiday was Christ’s Mass. As a former Catholic, I know that the word "Mass" in religious terms means a "death sacrifice." "Merry Christmas" literally means "Merry death of Christ!"
This film seeks to paint those who have learned the facts about this holiday and separated from pagan Rome and all of her traditions as Grinchy, grouchy, misled paranoid morons, who endanger our families by not going along with “the joy, the dancing, the celebration, the feasting, the imagination, and traditions that glorify the true reason for the season....”
Funny, when actor Kirk Cameron
was on the TODAY show, he didn’t
mention the name of Jesus Christ.
He referred to him (I guess) as
“the baby.” They spoke about “listening to
the wrong people”- faithful Christians who
know history, and do not believe in paganism!
Later, in a staged bit, he donned a mullet wig
and “channeled” his 80‘s TV sitcom character,
(what was his name, Mike Seizure?) It was
radically awesome, dude...NOT! Again, words
matter. Channel, truly not a Christian word at all.
Occult? Yes. Christian? No.
He has done this bit before on other shows,
albeit, admittedly with a different “mullet wig.”
Many true Christians are waking up to the
TRUTH about the pagan origins of Christmas.
I am currently working on a video on the subject
of Saturnalia and Christ’s Mass, which will be
much more detailed than this blog article, Lord
willing. In short, this film is an attempt at damage
control. It promotes deception, and anything based
on lies will not be used to win souls.
Let’s pray that multitudes will see this for what it is
and not be deceived, and for the producers to repent.
Proverbs 14:25
A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
1 Corinthians 10:21
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
“HO HO!”
What’s with constantly throwing up the 666 hand signs, Kirk?
