What did He mean by that? As I was praying this morning it was made clear to me, that originally the law kept our flesh in order or out of trouble. But when Jesus spoke of how if we, for example lusted after another women we in essence had committed adultery in our spirit. When Jesus said he came to fulfill the law, those words, actually start dealing with the next level of our being, our spirit. Now God is always after us at a deeper level. If I say to you I did not steal any money today, but throughout the day I am always trying to figure out a way to gather more stuff and work the system, what is the condition of my spirit? Yes I did not steal anything but my spirit is obsessed with the essence of taking or getting.

What is the Gift of Christmas?
A good question, leading up to Christmas, you see Christmas lights, people shopping, trees with skirts of presents, a time for family and friends, charity work and a time for being jolly, Ho Ho Ho. To many people it is a wonderful time of year. However, to more people than I would like to count, it is just time off for some silly holiday, that should not be elevated above the rest. Opponents of Christmas fight tooth and nail in an attempt to eradicate Christian beliefs from the face of the Earth; through hate, spite, fairness and the perversion of law that is even creating false victims of those who might hear Christ’s message. False claims twist its message that is 180 degrees opposite of the actual message God intended to bring us through His Son’s birth. When we do not defend the truth and God’s voice is silenced by our silence; the results are seen all around us. How can a message of love be hated so much, a message that bridges the gap between our Heavenly Father and us and etches a story of love upon our hearts once accepted. It should not only be discussed on Sunday’s.
