A Christmas Blog

The Christmas message is “Peace on Earth,” but the world’s response to Jesus Christ has not all been peaceful. Consider the different attitudes people can have towards Jesus Christ:

Diminish Him – “Jesus was just an ordinary man who did good”
Neutralize Him – “Jesus was a great philosopher and a teacher”
Deny Him – “Jesus was just a myth the early Christians invented”
Ignore Him – “Jesus is irrelevant to the modern, scientific world.”
Demonize Him – “Jesus’ strict morality is a threat to civil liberties and sexual liberation.”
Hate Him – “Jesus was a religious fanatic and his followers should be kept out of the state and his teachings out of public policy.”
Tame Him – “Jesus is my friend.”
Worship Him – “Jesus is Lord of heaven and earth, and of all creation.”

You can do what you want with Jesus Christ. He is not going away. He was, and is, and is to come.
