9 million people tuned into the Duck Dynasty Christmas special and saw the nativity story put on by the Robertson family for their church. I didn’t see it, but from everything I’ve read, I bet they honored Christ. And I bet at least half a million of those viewers aren’t Christian and just got the gospel presented to them.
Beats me why anyone can’t see the tremendous witness to the world that Christmas has.
I wouldn’t have a problem with Christmas if you took away all the trappings; the the insane shopping and spending, the decorations, the greed, people fighting each other in stores on Black Friday, etc. Those things don’t honor Him. If it was just singing carols, witnessing for Jesus and doing things that strictly honored Him, I wouldn’t have a problem with it. However, that’s not the case. We deceive ourselves saying all the pagan traditions that we stole honor Him.
