Dear friends, I grew up in the world for 24 years before I came to Christ, so I know its thinking and ways because I once lived it and walked its course (Eph. 2:1-14). As I was at work today, they were playing the world's Christmas carols which have a secular and demonic mood to it of utopia through relativism and bankrupt human love; which excludes RIGHTEOUSNESS and Almighty God man's ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Creator (Rom. 1:18-32). One song that was played today was John Lennon's, So This Is Christmas (War is Over). I had to laugh as I listened to the words and praised the Lord from what He saved me from! This John Lennon song is a total swipe and dig at the TRUE biblical Christmas message and the rejection there of. Mr. "Peace" (John Lennon himself), seeks to encourage all through moral relativism and lawlessness to seek world peace, to end war and "love" one another as fallen humanity (Isa. 48:22; 49:1; 57:21, Rom. 3, Jude 1:10). Hey world, how has that idiocy worked out for humanity since the fall (Psalm 14, Rom. 3, James 4:1-4)? Think I'm being intolerant and cruel? My dear friends, I use to think just like that; for John Lennon was a hero of mine in the days of my vanity. That demonic mindset is a TOTAL DELUSION and how mankind loves to drink it in, especially during the Christmas holiday season! Satan's subtle counter Christmas message is alive in well on planet earth and because of global unbelief, it is received yearly. Tragically, as John Lennon goes, he was the world's leading musician advocate for "peace"; however, in the reprobate world of John Lennon he NEVER found "peace" in this world and in the end was murdered by one of his fans.

For many years I had no idea that was Yoko singing in the background. I thought it was Paul with a hernia!
One thing I don’t like about it.
Another fan of Greg Lake’s “I Believe in Father Christmas”.
Typically, Pete Sinfield wrote most of the lyrics to Greg Lake’s songs including “Father Christmas”
I saw ELP at the beginning of their “Works” tour and they had a small choral and mini-orchestra - an incredible “show that never ends”.

The “Father” of “Father Christmas was Sergei Prokofiev:

OMG! Russia Russia Russia! :-)
Nah, you’re not the only one but we will probably get called to the wood shed. For those of you that haven’t heard or read the transcript from Lennon ‘s last rolling stone interview find it, read it.
Thanks...I’ll look for it.
I sang “Imagine” for many years before understanding it’s a communist song.
John LENNON was aptly named.

Obama’s America showing its self...
I spell Christmas with Christ in it, how do you spell Christmas??? X-MAS?? Hmmm.. I think we see where you’re coming from kid... So this is CHRISTmas... what have you done.. John 3:16-17...
Hey, Thanks for the idea! That is a great post title and article waiting to be!
Exactly what I thought! No Christ in Christmas.. you get a John Lennon..
Totally agree! Moral relativism at its finest!
I agree totally with your firzt statement, for indeed that is wisdom, however.. maybe you are offened at the simple biblical presentation of current events and issues we present.. you’re not alone here at FR. Alot of I.F.haters in the house
You must be born again my friend to see the Kingdom of God
He admits socialism doesn’t work and that he was young and naive.
Ok...., or... maybe you do not have an ear to hear... One way or the other my friend... may Almighty God be our Judge on the matter...
I totally agree... why do you think I use the name.. here’s a few verses to check out..
Acts 4:13, 1 Cor. 1:18-31
Shalom my FReep!

Well, if your whole post wasn’t in one indecipherable paragraph, it might encourage people to actually read through it.
In any case, I wasn’t talking about the use of “Xmas” vs. “Christmas.” I was simply pointing out the ACTUAL NAME OF THE SONG (as it’s spelled on the record label) that you’re ranting about.
Lol... doc, its alright... Exactly my friend! Lennon moral relativism!You nailed it!
A song which reflects the “prince of peace’s” mind set (John Lennon’s)
That’s the point of this post... whose peace do people want, the world’s or ALMIGHTY GOD THE SON’S... JOHN 3:16-17!
Juzt trying to cause people to think
Come on.... my friend... that kind of talk sounds like John Lennon and moral relativism... is that how you think?
No bitterness hear my friend : ), just happiness in Jesus! Phil. 4:4! Jump in and experience the joy and love of CHRISTMAS
in knowing Jesus as the Bible simply speakes of Him. Start in St. Matthew at the Christmas story! You will NEVERbe the same! Merry CHRISTmas to ALL!
My friend so did I! Indeed days of vanity and darkness, Until Jesus put a new song in my mouth! Psalm 40
I never really listened to the words.
I try to tune it out when they play it on the PA at Home Depot, especially YOkos vocals.
They played Rudolf too, it was Berl Ives I believe.
Is that the name? I like that silly song.
My favorite is Holy Night by anyone who does it.
I suppose it’s not biblical either.
Christmas is not even biblical except that we hold the gospel of the birth in very high regard and giving presents is fun.
I love Christmas when we can back off and relax about the expectations and just reflect on Gods glory.
We are broken but it’s ok because he gave us a way.
Jesus.
