How about we just start with the name the Angels said He would be called... Emanuel... Which means “God With Us”.
That's a pretty weak argument. I mean everyone called Emanuel before or since is . . . what??

Appropriate considering the season, and the Gospels where this is found.
What season is it? Winter soltice season? Is Christmas a Scriptural holiday? Quote book, chapter and verse please. Did Jesus (Our Example) celebrate Christmas?? His Apostles??

Misnamed by their parents.

The fact that Christmas is not a scriptural holiday is irrelevant. The gospels begin with the Christmas story as we celebrate it.

As for the test I referenced, it is in 1st John:

1Jo 4:1

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:


Your responses have answered my first question.
Your objectives appear clear.
I am not interested in arguing scriptures with you.
Let me know in private when you are looking for answers.

In the meantime, take a good look at post 13.
It has lots of scriptures referenced.
