HOPE YOU HAD A NON-PAUL WELLSTONE CHRISTMAS
Clueless people who worship their chosen "news" network are often encouraged to bring strife and in-your-face arguments to Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. They obviously ignore God's hatred of strife, divisiveness, and lying.
Family times should be free of disputes and concentrate on the reason for the celebrations. If people want to argue politics, denominational differences, or other controversial topics, there should do in private an We made it mostly through the first of two celebrations this Christmas (thankfully the second was free of all controversy), but three people had to do their thing at the first one and spew what they felt was the absolute truth.
I had to remind them it was Christmas but they were not willing to give up and listen to reason. Thankfully all the others had left except me, so I vamoosed and took a nice long bike ride. We need to redeem the time because the days are evil. Just be prepared - those who think they know everything and who swallow absurdities whole may be coming to your church or home or event. Do not get in arguments they love to trigger, but do not tolerate them either - they will take that as weakness.
When your pastor starts to say things you know are untrue, it is best to have a PRIVATE conversation with him. If he will not listen, whether or not he disparages you, which often follows, you must remove yourself and go where you are not in conflict. I am not talking about debatable issues. I am talking about important Biblical practices and Christian Doctrine (ask for my tract IS DOCTRINE DEAD OR SIMPLY DIFFERENT?) You CANNOT be unequally yoked with unbelievers. What fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? Deceptions increase and are rarely reversed, so do not make excuses for clear compromises with scripture.
I wrote long ago that political and spiritual deception has inextricably linked. Those who are in deep political deception have also compromised the Word of God - the extent some who are regarded as PILLARS have done his boggles my mind. I have never seen an exception. Have you?
