“HE IS!”

 Colossians 1:15-16

The Preeminence of Christ

“[15] “HE IS” the image of the invisible GOD, the firstborn of ALL CREATION. [16] For BY HIM ALL THINGS WERE CREATED, IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, WHETHER THRONES OR DOMINIONS OR RULERS OR AUTHORITIES—ALL THINGS WERE CREATED THROUGH HIM AND FOR HIM.”

TODAY is THE DAY that some have been convinced that Santa Claus bestows wonderful presents (or gifts!) to the world.  Santa Claus is an “illusion”.  An “illusion” is described in one dictionary as “ a noun;

1.     1. An erroneous perception of reality.
2.     2. An erroneous concept or belief.
3.     3. The condition of being deceived by a false perception or belief.

When we teach our children or grandchildren that someone, or some concept, is TRUTH we display that the TRUTH is not enough and needs to be supplemented to be accepted.  

Outside of JESUS, GOD IN THE FLESH, IMMANUEL, humankind would not exist.  So why do we instruct our posterity of LIES and expect them to Believe the devil’s deception?  

FATHER IN HEAVEN, please forgive me for failing to acknowledge that YOU are our only reason for existence and are the ONLY ONE worthy of our PRAISE!  

May all my friends experience the JOY and PEACE that can ONLY exist in THE CHRIST….the TRUE reason for the season!!!
