Light of the World

Christmas
The Light of the World has come like a lamb.





To bring us all face to face with the Father.
Stop striving for perfection. No need.

No more determination, resolutions, promises.
No more separation from our creator.
Our prophet Himself becomes the bridge to heaven.



A gift to everyman.
Born into a destitute family, He worked in carpentry until the time came.

Confidently, without doubt, the Good News was presented.
As a gift. Free to have.

Impoverished sheep wranglers trusted the angels' call.
Great spiritual leaders came to an animal stall where God lay, newborn, in a feeding trough; these holy men were made into liars by a despot craving power.
No wonder stars stood still.


Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows. He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities. And with His stripes we are healed.



Revelations 1 5:12 Hallelujah! For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth, the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ: and He shall reign for ever and ever. King of Kings. Lord of Lords.

This ends all powers of evil:


Bloody Mary~religious persecution, England.

Idi Amin~tribal genocide, Uganda
Adolf Hitler/Goebbles~the Final Solution, Europe

Joe McCarthy~Government Operations Committee~Blacklisting, USA

Juan and Eva Peron/General Jorge Videla~Disappearances,Argentina


Pol Pot~Khmer Rouge,~murders 25% of the population, Vietnam.

Imelda/Ferdinand
Marcos~loot the Philippines.

Nero~his cruelty and depravityhasten the fall of Rome.
Maximillien Robespierre~Reign of Terror, France
Joseph Stalin~rules Russia with an iron fist, USSR
Mao Zedong/Mao's widow Jiang Quing
/Gang of 4~China

Napoleon~crowns himself
Emperor of France.

Fidel Castro~Communist dictator, Cuba
George Bush/Donald Rumsfeld~
Senior officials Iraqi prisons, USA
Ayatolla Khomeini~kidnapper/religious tyrant, Iran.
But no earthly tyrant shall ever prevail.
Hope is born.
A Son is given.
He is King of All.

Powerful juxtapostions.
I pity people who believe in the "good of mankind" instead of the perfection of God.
