Excerpt from this article: "But Santa is based on the life of a real man whose generosity came from his following Jesus. Thus, Santa Claus actually points to Jesus."

-------------------------------

I hope to see Santa Clauses - the Real Santa Claus, not the myth - in heaven one day.

Here are 2 great Christmas poems:

'Twas the Night Before Jesus Came
'Twas the Light Before Christmas

I got this second poem from Jason Cooley's message: 5 Facts About Christmas:

‘Twas the night before Christmas and strange as it seams

I wasn’t indulging in covetous dreams

But while reading my Bible I searched for a clue

Why Christians take part in this holiday too

I plainly could see that it carried his name

But the spirit behind it just wasn’t the same

The song spoke of wise men, of virgin and child,

Of shepherds of God and all men reconciled

But nothing was said of the blood of the cross

Of repentance and faith and counting the cost.

They sang of the babe, his miraculous birth

But not of the day when he shall judge the whole earth.

My Bible said nothing of Santa and toys

Of frosty the snowman and small drummer boys

A reference to Rudolph not once did I see

But it seems that Jeremiah did once mention the tree

I sat and I pondered this curious matter

When out on the roof there arose such a clatter

That I knew in a moment he soon would be here

So I prayed in the spirit and said without fear

He slipped down the chimney Quick as a flash

And stepped from the fireplace all covered with ash

There stood St. Nick with his bag and his beard

He looked at the Bible I held and he sneered

Another fanatical Christian I see

No stockings no holly no pictures of me

I asked him if Jesus was God in the flesh

He said that was something he couldn’t confess

He said I am Santa I have come from afar

I stood in the truth, “The Devil you are!”

That suit and that beard doesn’t fool me one bit

Your jolly deception is straight from the pit!

Beneath all you’re ho ho ho Lucifer lurks

With your all seeing eyes and your gospel of works

Like a thief in the night you impersonate Christ

Returning to judge the naughty and nice

So call Christmas pagan he said, that’s OK

'Cause that’s what my sons at the Watchtower say.

You’ll look like a pagan or like a deceiver

But none will suspect you of being a believer

I said, I don’t care what your servants will say,

My loyalty lies with the Ancient of Days.
No matter how many abuses are hurled

My Bible says “Be not conformed to this world.”

You have no power and no part of me,

So I stand on God’s Word and command you to flee.

He squealed like a pig that was stuck with a knife

He ran to the chimney and climbed for his life.

And I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight

Merry X-Mas to all and to all a dark night!

Were the Atom Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki Justified? by Peter Hammond
Oppenheimer, Trump and the Bomb - The Wrong Worldview, by Pastor Kevin Swanson
Hiroshima, Scorched Earth, and Nuclear Warfare - Why We Don't Kill Women and Children, by Pastor Kevin Swanson

The following quotes are from Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard's book, Killing the Rising Sun:

"In the blast that follows, a fireball spreads out over the target zone. It travels at one hundred times the speed of sound, rendering it silent. One-millionth of a second later, the people of Hiroshima began to incinerate."
"But Enola Gay is safe. All twelve men on board are alive. In six hours they will celebrate with whiskey and lemonade and spend the night far from the hell they have just created."
"The next day the chilling results of what the young officer saw from the air are reported on Japanese radio: 'Practically all living things, human and animal, were literally seared to death."
"[President] Truman's face lights up. 'This is the greatest thing in history...'"
"'Thank God for the atomic bomb' is a common refrain among American soldiers and sailors, who have been dreading the blood-bath sure to come if American troops invade the beaches of Japan. To many of them, the bombing of civilians is not an issue - it's payback for the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor."
"Oppenheimer soon leaves the stage, but not before bringing the house down with his final comment: 'My only regret is that we didn't develop the bomb in time to use it against the Germans.'"

Here is a Hymn Based on Psalm 27: Jehovah is My Light

(A Psalm of David.) "The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.." Psalm 27

Daily Sermon for the Hearing Impaired: To the Church at Smyrna

To the Church at Smyrna, by Joe W. Allen [Text: Revelation 2:8-11]

----------------------

Note: This daily sermon for the hearing impaired is dedicated to my good friend, David J. Bishop, who went home to be with his Lord Jesus on July 1, 2021. David was the inspiration for me to begin posting links to sermons for the hearing impaired. David's not deaf anymore. And the first words he heard were from our Lord Jesus, saying to him, "Well done, David, thou good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of thy Lord!" [Matthew 25:21]

Here is one of the last pictures David sent to me before he died. He was a big sports fan and LOVED the Seattle Seahawks! He was also a BIG baseball fan. I'm sure if David had been able to hear he would have loved the song, Take Me Out to the Ball Game! But David loved our Lord Jesus much, much, much more than any sporting event! Oh, here is a video of Take Me Out to the Ball Game in American Sign Language! (ASL)

Daily Bible Verses for Wednesday, December 25, 2025

The following sermons are on Matthew 5:27-30: "Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell."

Here is a Hymn Based on Psalm 22: Amid the Thronging Worshippers

(To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.) "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts. I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly. Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help. Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever. All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the LORD'S: and he is the governor among the nations. All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this." Psalm 22
