We learned this week that members of the US Congress have been forbidden to send out Christmas cards wishing their constituents a Merry Christmas.
We are also informed that the US Army uniform now includes the choice of the wearing of turbins or Muslim head scarves. At the same time chaplains are forbidden to utter the name of Jesus in their prayers.
Across America Christmas trees and Christmas lights are banned in public places. Happy Holidays has replaced Merry Christmas as the effort to eliminate Christmas reaches a crescendo.
Everywhere the message of the hour is tolerance, except when it comes to Christianity where the clear message is “stamp it out.”

The Birth of Christ
At this season of the year we celebrate the Birth of Christ, but we do not just celebrate the birth of a baby in Bethlehem so many years ago. Many billions of human babies have been born, but what we celebrate is the incarnation of God in human flesh.
This baby had no human father from which to receive the sinful rebellious nature of man. He received His humanity from Mary His mother. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit making Him not only human but Divine, God in Flesh. "They shall call His name Immanuel, which is being interpreted, God With Us" Mt. 1:23.
