Thank you for this valuable program!!
I am 75 yrs old. I stopped celebrating Christmas about 50 yrs ago. I read a magazine article called, " The plain truth about Christmas!" Since then I taught my whole family the truth and we all stopped worshipping Christmas.
I researched and found there are indeed Biblical Holy days to celebrate instead.

I don't call myself a Christian, and I stopped celebrating Christmas.. I believe in God, I believe in Yeshua and trying to follow the word.. Without belonging to a reglion..

[sjmisrael]

If we love God, then we follow HIS WAYS.

Knowledge is indeed power. My children perish because of lack of knowledge. If people took time to unlearn the lies and learn the truth it would help humanity greatly. 😊

[challstrom]

I learned thus as a child. My father was very wise, finding this information without the internet so I’m so thankful that people are learning this now!

[Blameless__]

I like how detailed & very informative this video is. Facts not emotions. More Christians & gentiles should hear this

[CDGMR]

Great explanation. People must be “willing” for their eyes to be opened.

[johnblze]

I broke the curse of celebrating Christmas last year with my family. So I'm relieved to know my son and future generations will no longer take part in worshipping the devil.

The more I study about the history of Christianity, the more I am shocked and saddened by the deceit I have been raised on. Thank you for your videos, they are very enlightening. About 2 years ago I started following a Messianic Jewish Fellowship. They keep the Sabbath and all the teachings of the old and new testaments, they accept Jesus as the Messiah. I always wondered why as Catholics/Christians we were not not only taught all the Jewish customs/festivals, we were not taught to practice them. I left the Catholic church and all of it's evil teachings, they are the anti-Christ! Not going to lie, It has been and continues to be a struggle to let go of things that I was taught; but, I am doing it and will continue to understand Bible truth.

Wow this video taught me a lot about christmas I did not know before 😮 Anyone else coming from Michel's story post?

[Truthseeker-fk]

My most favorite reply when confronted with the paganism of Christmas, they say you are right its just the day we choose to celebrate Jesus birthday. Clearly they aren't ready to receive the truth.

[roess.]

Thank you Jim for uplifting the truth in verity.

Yes, It's so ridiculous that God never asks us to remember the date of His incarnation but we make it up to go along with the tradition of another strange gods. God asks us to remember the sabbath day to keep it holy, because He has created us, and sanctify us.
God bless you, Jim !

[luiscastrejon]

As a Christian, it really makes no difference to me when Jesus was born, what is important is that He was born among us that’s main point, so I can care less what day it was, thank you very much !

[JoFourie]

I stumbled upon this by chance and what an eye opener for me as a Christian. Thank you and warmest greetings from South Africa.

This video is an excellent & well researched case for Truth! I will listen to it and share it many, many times! Thank you for your diligence and Passion for Truth! ❤❤❤❤

Job 14:4 Who can bring a clean [thing] out of an unclean? No one!

[Sir_Viver]

I used to say "It doesn't matter how we worship, as long as we 'love' each other." Well in my recent studies, I have read where God has said "I do NOT want to be worshiped this way." and "If you love me, this is how you will worship me."
I am thankful for this channel helping to show me how the ways I used to worship were basically giving God the finger and saying at the same time "It doesn't matter how I worship, I was loving you!"

[clairehillier]

I cannot thank you enough for producing this amazing video. I had no idea how to explain the evil behind Christmas but now I can share your video. God bless you

[Viorinx]

God bless you Jim. God has gifted you with an excellent mind for evidence / truth finding. Praise Jesus!
