'In Vain They Worship Me'!


by Guy C. LaMar

MOST OF my family and old friends, more and more, are proving to me just how far away they are from the God of the Holy Bible! They are more involved with their fantasy god.

As we approach this PAGAN ritualistic time of the MASS-OF-CHRIST (aka "Christmas"), the greater our peoples are rejecting the TRUTH of God for their FAKE religiosity of man-made PAGAN embracing rituals.

As an example: how the United States of America’s government is forcing our fellow Americans to embrace the acceptance of ABOMINATIONS – embracing the heathen customs which were put in place by Satan the Devil!

Our Lord Jesus Christ makes it crystal clear that ‘in vain they worship Me’ by accepting and practicing these PAGAN customs.

He makes it abundantly clear that He will have NOTHING to do with such people. A person being willingly ignorant is NOT acceptable to God.

If a true servant of God has shown the WORD of God, the TRUTH of God, and the PLAN of God to our peoples, and these peoples REFUSE to accept God’s living truth, then it is on the people.

God’s living word makes it clear that He is NOT willing to accept foolishness. He will NOT accept people who have been shown His living truth, yet who willingly REJECT this truth because it goes against their worldly Satan-created religion.

My friends, you have been warned!

Embracing and practicing these pagan customs is serving Satan the Devil! It is NOT serving the LORD our God! In fact, it is rejecting the LORD our God!

Truly, this whole embracing and practicing of paganism come from the Roman Catholic Church – just as this generation of DEMONCRATS are trying to force Americans to embrace abominations unto God!

"Christmas trees" are but pagan rituals to the core.

Truly, if our peoples really love, obey, and serve the LORD our God instead of their idolatry of religiosity – of which was created and formed by Satan the Devil to further distance our peoples from the LORD God and Their living word – they would BOLDLY and CONFIDENTLY rebel against these rituals put in place by Satan the Devil!

My friends, make no mistake – CHRIST was NEVER EVER in “Christmas”! In fact, our Lord Jesus Christ WARNS us in regards to such things as “Christmas trees” – or what it was in that era of time, Asherah Poles. These poles, or sometimes stylized trees, stood as a sacred monument and tribute to the Canaanite goddess, Asherah. The Assyrians worshiped her as Ishtar. Notice:

“Hear the word which the LORD speaks to you, O HOUSE OF ISRAEL. 2) Thus says the LORD: ‘Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven [such as astrology], For the Gentiles are dismayed at them. 9) For the customs of the peoples ARE FUTILE; For one cuts a tree from the forest, The work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. 4) They decorate it with silver and gold; They fasten it with nails and hammers So that it will not topple’” – Jeremiah 10:1-4.

Our peoples who keep and celebrate “Christmas” and have a pagan tree decorated in their homes, completely OVERLOOK when the LORD God says “’ DO NOT LEARN THE WAY OF THE HEATHENS!’”

The greater majority of my family has been told this living truth, but because they DO NOT want to be apart from this world and its ways, they embrace keeping and celebrating this Satan-inspired and Satan-led pagan custom ritual of what is called “Christmas.”

The majority of my worldly friends – in fact, ALL MY WORLDLY FRIENDS – do have their “Christmas tree” idolatrously decorated for all to see! They completely disregard the LORD our God’s HOLY DAYS and have replaced them with this world’s holidays which were put in place by the Church of Satan the Devil – the Roman Catholic Church!

Does the true God of the Holy Bible even matter to them!? Or do the traditions and customs which were set up by Satan the Devil mean more!? Do our peoples really care about the LIVING TRUTH OF GOD!?

Sadly, I have met throughout my life so many people that DO NOT even believe in the true God of the Holy Bible, but rather believe in a fantasy god.

It is so grievous to witness people which were told the living truth of God, yet they so willingly reject this truth because it goes AGAINST their worldly way of living.

I have watched with my own eyes people willingly reject the LORD God! And nothing crushes me inside more than to see this. How willingly IGNORANT people have allowed their own selves to become.

Truly, God the Father does the calling out of this world, but we who have God’s Holy Spirit living within us, are to help others in their calling by presenting the living TRUTH OF GOD!

God’s WORD is clear – “For we MUST all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that EACH ONE may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad” – 2 Corinthians 5:10. ALL will be held accountable for what they have been shown of His truth! For what we know the LORD God will hold us accountable for. Rejecting God’s truth willingly makes you no safer with God than if you are a true Christian who willingly TURNS FROM GOD and begins to flounder in darkness.

Notice these passages from God’s living word –

“Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit’; ….” – recall our Lord Jesus’ words, “’ Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, … Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble’” – Matthew 6:31-23, 33, 34. “ … 14) whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. 15) Instead you ought to say, ‘IF THE LORD WILLS, we shall live and do this or that.’ 16) But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17) Therefore, to him who knows to do good and DOES NOT DO IT, to him IT IS SIN – James 4:13-17.

“But why do you judge your brother? [speaking also of your neighbor] Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. 11) For IT IS WRITTEN: ‘As I live, says the LORD, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God.’ 12) So then EACH OF US shall give account of himself to God – Romans 14:10-12.

In deeds as well as in words!

’ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. 36) BUT I SAY TO YOU that every idle [the Greek word being argos, meaning “lazy, useless, ineffective, careless”] word [or act, or thought] men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37) For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be [judged] – Matthew 12:35-37.

“IF indeed you have heard [Christ] and have been taught by Him, as the truth IS IN JESUS: 22) that you put off, CONCERNING YOUR FORMER CONDUCT [as in keeping and celebrating this “Christmas” and its pagan traditions], the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23) and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24) and that you PUT ON THE NEW MAN which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. 25) Therefore, putting away lying [also meaning ‘putting away false religions’ which are a lie], ‘Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,’ for we are members of one another” – Ephesians 4:21-25.

WE ALL ARE MEMBERS OF ONE ANOTHER!

“My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And IF anyone sins, we have …” does he write that we have a Catholic priest!? What about ‘a head of a worldwide church’!? NO! – “ … we have an ADVOCATE with the Father, JESUS CHRIST the righteous. 2) And He Himself is the propitiation [the “go between” – the means of forgiveness; the ATONEMENT] for our sins, and not for ours only BUT ALSO FOR THE WHOLE WORLD” – 1 John 2:1-2.

“This I say, therefore, AND TESTIFY IN THE LORD, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, 18) having their understanding darkened, being alienated FROM THE LIFE OF GOD, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart – Ephesians 4:17-18.

“TRULY, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but NOW commands ALL MEN EVERYWHERE TO REPENT” – Acts 17:30.

“Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle … 2) that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets [such as Prophet Jeremiah regarding Asherah poles, or rather what they are called today, “Christmas trees”], and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3) knowing this FIRST: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4) and saying. ‘Where is the promise of His coming?’ For since the fathers fell asleep [died], all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.’ 5) For THIS they willfully forget [or are willfully ignorant of]: that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water” – 2 Peter 3:1, 2-5.

Prophet Job – under the inspiration of God’s Spirit – writes a complaint against mankind

“Their houses are safe from fear, Neither is the rod of God upon them. 10) Their bull breeds without failure; Their cow calves without miscarriage. 11) They send forth their little ones like a flock, And their children dance. …” – recall the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, “ … ‘He makes the sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust’ – Matthew 5:45. God the Father’s great MERCY! “ … 12) They sing to the tambourine and harp, And rejoice to the sound of the flute. 13) They spend their days in wealth, And in a moment go down to the grave.” – NOTICE –

14) YET THEY SAY TO GOD, ‘DEPART FROM US, FOR WE DO NOT DESIRE THE KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR WAYS’” – Job 21:9-14.

Sadly, the greater majority of our peoples around the world want nothing to do with God, His knowledge, or His ways!

Notice what the LORD of hosts told Prophet Zechariah to say to all the people of the land and to the priests who were in the house of the LORD of hosts –

“’ Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘Execute true justice, Show MERCY and compassion Everyone to his brother. 10) Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, The [stranger or foreigner] or the poor; Let none of you plan evil in his heart Against his brother’” – Zechariah 7:8-10.

Notice what their response was –

11) ‘But they refused to heed, shrugged their shoulders, and stopped their ears so that they could not hear. 12) Yes, they made their hearts like flint, REFUSING TO HEAR the law and the words which the LORD of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. Thus GREAT WRATH came from the LORD of hosts’” – Zechariah 7:11-12.

– Notice – it is meant to be this way in accordance to the Plan of God for the redemption of all mankind –

’ And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: ‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not perceive; 15) For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest [OTHERWISE] they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest [OTHERWISE] they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should HEAL THEM’ – Matthew 13:14-15.

And, because of mankind’s lawless – “ … God will send [or ‘has sent’] them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12) that they all may be [judged] WHO DID NOT BELIEVE THE TRUTH but had pleasure in unrighteousness” – 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12.

ANYONE who is wholeheartedly seeking the LORD God, who comes to the TRUTH of God in regards to “Christmas” will THROW OUT their idolatrous pagan originated tree and DO AWAY with such a Satan the Devil’s inspired tradition and TURN TO GOD and embrace His will, His LAW – the TEN COMMANDMENTS – and embrace His annual seven HOLY DAYS!

Friends, we are one day closer to the judgment of all people. One day closer to the end of this present evil age.

It is time for God’s people to be bold and STAND UP for the will of the Eternal One, and STAND AGAINST this wicked evil world!

NEVER FORGET – this present evil world is ruled by the evil one –

“But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4) whose minds the god of this age has blinded, …” – 2 Corinthians 4:4.

We are commanded by the LORD our God to ‘Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues’ – WE ARE TO COME OUT OF THIS MODERN-DAY BABYLON!

This Babylonian system of our enemy Satan the Devil is what we are to reject as true Christians – cf. Revelation 18:4.

“DO NOT love the world or the things in the world. If ANYONE loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16) For ALL that is in the world ─the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life ─IS NOT OF THE FATHER BUT IS OF THE WORLD” – 1 John 2:15-16.

“And DO NOT be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God” – Romans 12:2.

A very brother of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ cries out to this world –

“ADULTERERS and ADULTERESSES! …” – also meaning idol worshipers! Those who worship false gods and goddesses! “ … Do you not know that friendship with the world IS ENMITY WITH GOD? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God” – James 4:4.

Here are the facts folks! – It is either God’s Way or Satan the Devil’s way!

Truly embracing and celebrating the LORD God’s HOLY DAYS (see Leviticus 23) is God’s Way!

Sadly, the greater majority of our peoples around the world place their immediate families BEFORE the LORD God! And our Lord Jesus Christ says – and has made it clear – that if you do then you are NOT of His people.

’ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me’ – Matthew 10:37.

It is God’s Way or the highway!

LOOK TO JESUS! □
