“When we give or receive Christmas gifts; or hang green wreaths in our homes and churches, how many of us know that we are probably observing pagan customs...the god, Woden, in Norse Mythology, descends upon the earth yearly between December 25th and January 6th to bless mankind...But pagan though they be, they are beautiful customs. They help inspire us with the spirit of 'good will to men', even as the sublime service of our Church reminds us of the ‘peace on earth’ which the babe of Bethlehem came to bestow” (Externals of the Catholic Church, 140).
They admit to paganism but they follow those beautiful customs/traditions anyway. Just another of their choosing death and not life.
even as the sublime service of our Church reminds us of the ‘peace on earth’ which the babe of Bethlehem came to bestow<
"Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. "For I have come to 'set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law'; "and 'a man's enemies will be those of his own household.' Matthew 10:34-36
The CC is based on deception as is ALL their 'traditions/teachings'. They move their subjects away from God's Word more and more until they are in complete bondage to them/man which leaves them unteachable and they shall remain in bondage.
