LISTENING TO THE CBC RADIO THIS EVENING OF DECEMBER 31ST.
VERY INTERESTING INTERVIEW WITH A WOMAN PROFESSOR WHOSE IN THE KNOW; BECAUSE SHE COMES FROM TURKEY !
THE ISLAM NATION OF TURKEY CELEBRATES "CHRISTMAS" BUT ON THE EVENING OF DECEMBER 31ST INTO JANUARY 1ST.
WHY? WELL THEY ARE MAJORITY ISLAM; SO DON'T WANT TO HAVE IT WHEN THE "CHRISTIAN" NATIONS HAVE IT.
BUT THEY LIKE GIVING AND RECEIVING PRESENTS; THEY HAVE THE DECORATED CHRISTMAS TREE; AND THEY HAVE SANTA CLAUS !
HE'S NOT THE BIG FAT TUMMY ONE OF WESTERN NATIONS; HE DOES NOT COME DOWN A CHIMNEY, AS THERE ARE NO CHIMNEYS IN TURKEY AS LIKE THE WEST MAY HAVE.
BUT HE'S STILL SANTA CLAUS!
TURKEY PEOPLE PUT PRESENTS UNDER THE FANCY TREE, AND OPEN THEM AT MIDNIGHT DECEMBER 31ST, THE COMING IN OF THE NEW YEAR SET BY THE ROMAN CALENDAR.
NOW SOME DISREGARD OBSERVING THIS CUSTOM FOR "ISLAMIC" RELIGIOUS REASONS, OR POLITICAL REASONS.
THEN SOME OBSERVE IT AS A STATEMENT OF REBELLION AGAINST ISLAM [OR NARROW MINDED ISLAM], AND/OR AS A POLITICAL STATEMENT [WE WANT TO DO WANT WE LIKE TO DO REGARDLESS OF ANYTHING ELSE].
NOW, IT'S JANUARY 1ST - A NEW YEAR CALLED 2015 BY MOST NATIONS.
ARE YOU SEEING THAT THE CELEBRATION OF JANUARY 1ST IS JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE. YOU CAN SIT AND WATCH IT CELEBRATED IN CHINA, THEN AS IT SWEEPS ACROSS THE EAST INTO RUSSIA AND EUROPE; ACROSS TO NEW-FOUNDLAND, CANADA; INTO NEW YORK CITY AND ACROSS NORTH AMERICA.
SO IN SOME FORM OR ANOTHER YOU HAVE "CHRISTMAS" AND "NEW YEARS" CELEBRATION FOR A GOOD MAJORITY OF THE WORLD. CERTAINLY THE OVER ONE BILLION [WITH A "B"] OF ROMAN CATHOLICS WORLDWIDE CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS AND JANUARY 1ST AS NEW YEAR'S DAY.
YOU CAN GO ON THE INTERNET; GO TO THE ROMAN CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA; GO TO MY WEBSITE; YOU CAN EASILY DISCOVER THE ORIGINS OF "CHRIST-MASS" AND "JANUARY 1ST AS NEW YEAR DAY."
THEY COME FROM THE OLD PAGAN ROMAN EMPIRE!!
THE FACT IS THE NEW TESTAMENT FIRST CENTURY AD CHURCH OF GOD NEVER OBSERVED THESE TWO FESTIVALS. THEY CAME INTO THE CHURCH VIA THE ADOPTION OF THEM BY THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
THE WORLD HAS BEEN DECEIVED IN MANY WAYS TO ADOPT MANY THINGS FROM THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
BIBLE PROPHECY USES A "WOMAN" OFTEN TO REPRESENT A "CHURCH." A TRUE CHURCH OF GOD, OR A FALSE CHURCH OF GOD. MANY OLD [MAYBE NEW ALSO] WILL TELL YOU A WOMAN USED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION IS OFTEN MEANING "A CHURCH" - EITHER THE TRUE PURE CHURCH OF GOD, OR THE FALSE, IMPURE CHURCH OF GOD.
THE 17TH CHAPTER OF REVELATION TELLS YOU ABOUT A WOMAN, RIDING A BEAST; SHE IS CALLED "BABYLON MYSTERY RELIGION" - THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS [SHE HAD CHILDREN]; A WOMAN DRUNK WITH THE BLOOD OF THE SAINTS; A WOMAN THAT HAS MADE ALL NATIONS DRUNK OF THE WINE OF HER FORNICATION [SPIRITUAL WRONGS].
NOW GO TO SOME OF THE OLD FUNDAMENTAL CONSERVATIVE BIBLE COMMENTARIES, LIKE "ALBERT BARNES" "ADAM CLARKE" "MATTHEW HENRY" AND OTHERS.
THEY PULL NO PUNCHES IN THE EXPLAINING OF THIS WOMAN OF REVELATION 17.
THIS WOMAN CHURCH IS VERY MUCH ALIVE TODAY, AND GAINING LARGER POPULARITY RIGHT NOW, THAN IN THE LAST 50 YEARS OR SO.
IF THIS IS SOMEWHAT NEW TO YOU THEN GO TO THE STUDY CALLED "CHRISTIAN FEASTS AND CUSTOMS" UNDER SECTION "GOD'S SABBATH, AND FEASTS VERSES PAGAN ONES" ON MY WEBSITE [keithhunt.com].
PROPHECY HAS COME TO BE FULFILLED RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES, PROVING THE BIBLE TO BE INSPIRED BY THE GOD OF HEAVEN!
