The so-called Three Wise Men, and the Christmas story

This morning I was listening to the radio. I came across some preacher that was teaching about Christmas, and he intentionally included the twisted version of the so-called three wise man that he claimed were led by a star from God to Bethlehem where they found baby Jesus in a manger and gave him gifts. I have heard many preachers teach the same thing.

The preacher also said in the past that Pagans used to celebrate the birth of the SUN on DEC 25th, and he added that in 313 AD Constantine declared that DEC 25th would no longer be the Suns birthday, but would be the Son's birthday.

The preacher then said: "See it has already been declared by Rome that it's now Christ's birthday, thus there is nothing wrong with celebrating Christ's birthday on Dec 25th.

#1. I'm not sure that Constantine actually declared it's no longer the Suns birthday, as many in Rome and other countries continued to celebrate the Sun's birthday way after 313 AD. Regardless of whatever Constantine declared/claimed, even to this day many of the traditions that are found in Christmas and Easter are clearly borrowed from the DEC 25th Winter Solstice Pagan festivals.

#2. That preacher taught it's OK to celebrate Christmas because Constantine of Rome said so...

They want to follow after Man and Rome? Yahweh never declared it was Yahshua's birthday on DEC 25th, nor does the scriptures say that we should celebrate his birthday.

#3 People are simply following after the Pagan Magi's that gave gifts. The people who celebrate Christmas are giving gifts to each other, thus giving earthly glory to themselves. I don't see anything good that they are giving or doing for Yahshua on DEC 25th, and the majority of people that celebrate Christmas aren't even church goers or Christians. Many of the gifts given are clearly promoting and/or supporting Satan and lies. I think Harry Potter, evil video games and such filthy music's were the top giving gifts for the past few years, given to millions of children.

The three wise men story was the religious foundation why many people give gifts to each other on DEC 25th

Jer 10: 2 thus saith Yahweh, Learn not the way of the nations, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the nations are dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

Many preachers are still teaching about the so-called three wise men that followed a star to baby Yahshua in Bethlehem.

The problem is, that's not the way it happened at all. Those Preachers are intentionally twisting the truth when preaching that story before DEC 25th. They often tell the story in a way that makes people think those men were guided by a star from Yahweh, and that they were good because they brought baby Yahshua three gifts.

We've all seen the nativity sets in the Churches that display the three wise men with a baby in the manger. The Roman Catholics had them first.

Nowhere in any Bible does it ever mention three men, and there is much more to this story that's not being preached in many Churches.

Get your bible out, and when you read (Matthew 2) carefully, you will see a completely different story than what many Preachers teach in church.

There were not three wise men that followed a star, but there were three gifts, however two of the gifts are rather strange for giving to/for a new born baby. Those men were Magi "Pagan occult astrologers" that came from Persia. They are from Zoroastrianism religion of Tehran, Iran. (Yahweh is very against such pagans).

The Bible shows those Magi followed a star directly to "Jerusalem", and they went directly to the evil to King Herod. They didn't go directly to Bethlehem as many Preachers often imply to it's congregation! So why do so many preachers wrongfully teach that on purpose in church each year?

Those Magi told Herod that a new King of the Jews had been born, and they wanted to know where he was. King Herod didn't know anything about that, and he was very troubled of that news, as he wanted to be the only King over everybody.

So Herod gathered together the Judaism Chief Rabbis and asked them where the new born baby King was born. The Chief Rabbis told Herod that the baby King was in Bethlehem. The Rabbis and Herod already knew that baby Yahshua was in the small town of Bethlehem. Then Herod told those Magi to go into Bethlehem and find the new born King, then come back and let Herod know exactly where, and so he can supposedly go and honor him as the new born King.

Frankincense and Myrrh grows in Iran and other parts of Persia, but the third gift "Gold" likely came from Herod, as gold is a gift often given from a King to another King. Herod had lot's of gold, and his solders likely confiscated the gold away from everybody in Israel. I can't imagine King Herod would send the Magi there without a gift from himself. Herod didn't want to frighten the new born king and his parents away, but would have likely tried to make everything look good as possible so he could come and find them latter.

Gold is a common gift for a King and Queen; Frankincense is smoky incense, and Myrrh is not exacly a gift for the living. It was a common burial ointment for someone who will soon die, or for someone who recently died, however the Egyptians may have used it in certain powerful medications.

Immediately after those two Magi presented those three gifts to Yahshua's parents, the spirit of Yahweh gave them a dream to immediately leave and go back to the Persia where they came from, and to not return unto Herod. The spirit of Yahweh also gave Joseph a dream telling him to take Mariam and baby Yahshua and immediately flee into Egypt because Herod is seeking to kill the baby. Herod didn't waist any time wanting to kill the new born King Yahshua after those Magi told about him.

At night those pagan Magi left to go back to Persia, and Joseph & Mariam with Baby Yahshua left to travel into Egypt "very far from Bethlehem". Then afterwards Herod sent out his solders to murder all baby boys "two years and younger" in Bethlehem and it's surrounding borders. The age "two and under" was based from what those Magi had told Herod at the time they visited him in Jerusalem.

It took those Magi along time to travel to Jerusalem all the way from Iran by Camel? or Donkey?, or on foot?. So it seems Yahshua wasn't exactly a new born baby when they arrived in Bethlehem, or Herod would have killed only brand newborn baby boys instead. Mat 2 doesn't show Yahshua being in a manger either.

There are several major concerns with all of this Yahweh wouldn't guide Pagan Magi's, and to go directly to Jerusalem to tell Herod. Yahweh told those Magi to leave and go back to Persia right after they found baby Yahshua.

Satan/Lucifer is called a star - the shining one and light bearer in ISA 14:12 and in 2Co 11:14 (See strongs #1966). It was Satan that guided those pagan Magi to Herod, and Herod told them to go to Bethlehem. They were following Satan and Herod. Many baby boys were murdered as result of those Magi telling Herod, and baby Yahshua and His parents had to immediately leave their homeland and flee into Egypt. And it seems those Rabbis never latter told anybody why, or that the Messiah had been born. Those Rabbis new that the baby king must have been the Messiah.

Those Magi "often called Wise-Men in Christian churches" were actually evil and unwise. They caused all kinds of problems that led to massive death and destruction. It was also the Chief Rabbis that latter had Yahshua crucified. Before they murdered Yahshua, they offered him to drink myrrh in wine, but he refused (Mark 15:23).

In Mark 15:1-24, John 19:15 we see the people cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

It's been proven that the Roman Catholic Church celebrated Christmass on DEC 25th as shown in the Roman Calendar of Filocalus year 354. The word Christmas comes from Catholic "Christ-mass", but a mass is for somebody that died, and not for somebody that was born. Myrrh is also for somebody who died, or about to die, and also used as strong medication by pagans for healing the sick. What kind of gift is that for a new born king?, and why would baby Yahshua need incense?

The Pagan Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and others previously celebrated DEC 25th as Horus "pagan sun-god" birthday, Hercules the son of Zeus" birthday, Mithraism and the Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, "the Birthday of the sun", also the Winter Solstice or Yule, and long before Yahshua was even born. It was first called Christmas sometime between 325-354. History shows that many Christian preachers and Origen Adamantius "one of the most distinguished early fathers of the Christian Church" taught Christians to not participate in the Dec 25th celebration.

DEC 25th was the pagans sun worshipping and gifts celebration date for their false gods & goddesses that were said to be born on DEC 25th including Ishtar. Ishtar in English is Easter (See your dictionary).

The Jews and even Muslims are very familiar with DEC 25th and other pagan dates, and they both think Christians are nuts for celebrating anything on that date, yet alone the so-called birth date of Yahshua. They also both know that the Roman Catholic church are the ones that led many Christians into it

Most all Bible Scholars agree that Yahshua wasn't born in December. He was most likely born in September or very early October, but nobody in the bible ever celebrated his birthday, but many wicked people celebrated Dec th and Yahshua's death after the Romans killed him.

Almost everything connected with Christmas is based on lies and/or borrowed from Paganism. Christians have another excuse: They claim they celebrate that date because it's passing the good news of Jesus birth. How are they celebrating his birth? What do they actually give to Yahshua on DEC 25th?

The best gift you can give to Yahshua is to repent from sin, walk as he walked by serving Yahweh, and keep in the truth. Don't teach your children lies, and don't give them anything that promotes evil.

The main reason why they all celebrate is because of the family fun and gifts. I don't see anybody giving anything to Yahshua, but rather they are giving each other glory and giving Children evil gifts and telling more lies about three Wise men and Santa lies. It's all worldly stuff they are following after.

1 John 2:15 Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

What they are really doing is keeping the many lies alive and luring others into celebrating all those pagan Dec 25th traditions that have nothing to do with Yahshua's birth. They are not abiding in the Love of the Truth by doing those things.

2Thess 2:10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause Yahweh sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe lies: 12 that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

By celebrating DEC 25th Christmas they are also causing many Jews and Muslims to rebuke them, and to not want to have anything to do with them, or the new testament messianic scriptures, or the Jesus that they think taught them to do those things. Yahweh and Yahshua never taught to do those things, and the scriptures teach against those things. Therefore they are also misrepresenting the truth about Yahshua, and I don't see them teaching the truth as shown above.

What they are really doing is having a whole bunch of fun and coming up with all kinds of excuses "more lies" to keep doing it. Many preachers are misleading or deceiving the people when they intentionally twist the Magi story in Mat 2. They are basically convincing each other by many means that it's OK to celebrate Christmas, and their not teaching or promoting the truth or Yahshua when they willingly participate using handed down known pagan traditions and lies. If they want to gather together, have fun, give gifts on any given date, then that's fine. But to say it's Yahshua's birthday is a lie, and to say they are celebrating his birthday with all those pagan things, and giving evil gifts and passing down lies to others is clearly wrong too.

They can preach about the true Messiah Yahshua everyday, and we should be thanking Yahweh everyday for giving us His most precious gift "Yahshua". If they know the Word of Yahweh, then they are expected to abide in the truth, and not participate in lies, or in anything that promotes falsehoods, paganisim or giving evil gifts.
