Oh my.

If we weren't up to 6,000 posts I might have the energy to address some of this. But it's been dealt with. No resolution was met, of course. But
We don't think the Church is a "flesh" organization any more than we think it is led by men.
There are many plausible arguments about when our Lord was born. I don't worry about it a lot. But it's fun to look at what time of year John the Baptist's father would have been going into the Holy of Holies and then do the math. Also the date of Yom Kippur is determined by the date of Rosh Hashanah which is determined by the new moon.
Easter is not especially a feast of the Incarnation but of the Resurrection.

I find in the Bible that Jesus is the WORD, and that the CHurch is the body of Christ, guided and informed by the Holy Spirit,and that offices and gifts vary among various members of the Body.

And when Christ Himself was asked WHAT would be the sign(s) of His return, did Christ say was first and foremost? Deception. It is ok that you do not have the 'energy' to address any of this. Because it is not me that is important for you to be answerable to or judged by.

How many did Paul symbolically say there would be that would NOT bend a knee to Baal? We are nearing that appointed time and it may well be at some moon festival appointed by flesh man.
