Still full of tough love, aren't you, CTID?

CTID, some think you should come down off your self-elevated pedestal.
Me? I (along with my better half) was over to some friends home for supper last night. They had all the decorations, tree, lights, etc. I didn't bring it up, but he admitted the tree is pagan, but just likes to set it up, decorate it, and admire it. I left it at that.
I used to do the same thing. But then after being 'born again', in obedience to the Christ, I too (as Paul proclaimed) became a new creature. All things DO become new. One of those things was the 'tree'. Suddenly I realized that the Lord made the evergreen beautiful, as is; green, with a pleasing scent, a home for his beautiful finches. Bringing the tree into the house, and decorating it, seems so foreign, so vain to me.
We set up a ceramic nativity scene. Nothing spectacular, just like the background around that spectacular birth.
Are we thankful? OOOOHHHH yes!

Can you not be a Jew and believe that Y'shua is the Messiah?
