That does not change the fact that while Christ was dying for the sins (saving) of man, and people were being resurrected in Jerusalem, HE WAS KILLING THOUSANDS IN America (according to the BoM) who never even knew him.

That is irreconcilable.

Huh? Christ the Killer?

That doesn’t go with any Christmas music I ever heard. Not even X-mas songs.

Huh? Christ the Killer?

Shouldn’t that be Christ the Redeemer?

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
O what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
born of his Spirit, washed in his blood.

Refrain
This is my story, this is my song,
praising my Savior all the day long;
this is my story, this is my song,
praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight,
visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
angels descending bring from above
echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

Perfect submission, all is at rest;
I in my Savior am happy and blest,
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with his goodness, lost in his love.

Doesn’t sound like no killer...

Ok, let me get this correct. Jesus was busy in Jerusalem doing what He needed to do and at the same time killing thousands for their wicked behavior (on a different continent) and demanding they return to "faith in christ", even though these people groups had never heard of him. What a guy.

I do have a question "why would I return to faith in chirst, even if I knew who he was (which I don't because he just now showed up) after he killed thousands of my family and friends? Doesn't sound like a guy I'd want to worship.
