Merry Christmas to all of our readers, supporters, and even haters. At Christmas, we celebrate the incarnation of Christ, one of the most profound miracles of the saving faith. In truth, the birth of Christ is the second most perplexing of miracles to me, in that while I believe it without reservation, it is incomprehensible to me how a person of the Trinity could enter the world as a baby. So to me, this is worthy of a holiday. There is a modern heresy that specifies that Christ was not fully God at his birth called kenosis, but this goes against the static in hypostatic union. This is the poor attempt of often NAR teachers to explain God taking on human flesh along with their vain attempts to justify their “anointing.” But Christmas is something we accept with faith and without the need to invent theology.

Merry Christmas, Ray. Thanks for what you do.
Merry Christmas!
you know what, just when you think the momentum against the holiday and word Christmas was falling into the memory hole, I never imagined I’d read an article about the Church of England allegedly wanting the church to change certain words and phrases in certain carols, as if they were directed at modern times, modern people.
Merry Christmas anyway.
