Re: We're Not Putting X-Mas Trees Up!

I guess I must be stupid or not prayed up. But I cant figure out how one can read between the lines and come up with the idea that celebration of Christmas is a sin amd they let women speak in church when that is easy to read about. Now dont bash me I dont believie its wrong. I just dont understand how they can pick and choose.

Most who don't believe in Christmas probably don't let women speak either. No pagans or women talkers for them!

There are women preachers who don't do xmas. Now that we have cured that rabbit trail, let's get back to the Popish sacrament.

In Jesus name

Re: We're Not Putting X-Mas Trees Up!

If you folks don't want to celebrate christmas, then don't. it's so simple.


Here's what I don't get. I see churches that preach against christmas but exchange gifts. that's participating in the comercial part of Christmas which should be wrong too.

If it's not right, then withdraw from all of it.

I don't believe in women speaking(in position to teach over) to the heads of the home at all. That is not her called duty. So don't throw me in that boat.
She can teach children and other women but not men.
