THE CHRISTMAS LIE
THE TREE
THE TREE OF CHRISTMAS
"Christmas Apollo-gists" crusade the internet informing people an embarrassing reference in Jeremiah to a Tree being cut down, placed in a stand, and decorated with silver and gold have "nothing to do with the Christmas tree". And while there may have been no "stand" in a modern living room, there certainly was a sacred tree, and a solstice ritual, and idols placed beneath it, and possibly even a "stand". And this practice was in fact, precisely what the prophets were protesting in ancient Israel. The historical practices of the winter solstice in the Middle East are well documented by modern archeologists. The fact is that Mithraic practices were being assimilated into Israel [known to all historians] and reflected in the texts of the Tanakh, where both the ancient festival and its modern practice is thoroughly denounced in scores of texts. The arguments that dismiss this text's relevance to the modern practice of today's "Christmas tree" are patently and documentably untrue, and fall apart on several levels when closely scrutinized. The New Testament in keeping with their predeccessors, openly called these solstice-worship practices (which originated in ancient Babylon and Persia) the cause of separation from God, the practice of Apostates and the unmistakable mark of one's potential future damnation. Prophets warned if you mix the worship of God with the lake of fire in the sky, that is where you will go when you die. It is a worship the prophets warned God does not accept, and is a dangerous deception.

JEREMIAH 10 REALLY IS ABOUT A TREE (AND IT'S IDOLS)
JEREMIAH 10 AND THE TREE THAT ISN'T THERE
Jeremiah 10 and Christmas Trees (Evangelical)
An important key to understanding any passage is to pay careful attention to its context. Verses 2 through 4 of Jeremiah 10 are part of a larger context. That larger context is verses 1 through 16. ...Jeremiah is not condemning Christmas trees. He is condemning idolatry. The trees in Jeremiah 10 are cut down to carve them into worthless idols that will later be decorated with gold and silver. Jeremiah says nothing about Christmas trees. That custom originated in northern Europe, not in ancient Palestine.
That custom originated in northern Europe, not in ancient Palestine - FALSE
Jeremiah 10 and the Pagan Christmas Tree (Lutheran)
A number or well-meaning readers of the "Origin and Meaning of the Christmas Tree" article have written me with questions or accusations based on Jeremiah 10. These readers state that Jeremiah 10 proves that the Christmas tree is a pagan custom and is forbidden by God. Therefore, they argue, all those who decorate a Christmas tree in their home are sinning in God's sight. This is quite the serious charge. Let us briefly examine Jeremiah 10 and the argument based upon it to see if there is any merit to this argument. ... "Aha!" these readers say. "Jeremiah is talking about the Christmas tree!" But closer examination reveals that he certainly is not! .. First, there is the immediate context of this passage. The very next verse, 10:5, goes on to say, "Like a scarecrow in a melon patch, their idols cannot speak; ...From the foregoing, it is abundantly clear that the "decorated tree" to which Jeremiah 10 refers is an idol, very likely the Asherah. Therefore, it is very superficial Bible interpretation and pure silliness to understand this passage as directly referring to the use of a fir tree for Christmas! If, and I repeat, if those who set up a Christmas tree fall down and worship it as a god or goddess, complete with altars and incense stands, then Jeremiah 10 applies here. ...But apart from these exceptions, I think it is abundantly clear that Christians who erect Christmas trees are NOT worshiping them as gods or goddesses, nor are they loving them more than their Savior Jesus Christ. They are simply using the Christmas tree as a fun custom, one that can remind them of Jesus who is the branch of David (Jeremiah 23:5; 33:15), the root of Jesse (Isaiah 11:1). One that can remind them of the tree that led Adam and Eve to sin, but more importantly, the tree on which Christ Jesus died to make atonement for the sins of the whole world (Acts 5:30; Gal. 3:13; 1 Peter 2:24). ...Christians should know that they can use a Christmas tree with a good conscience. It is unfortunate and wrong when well-meaning Christians call something sin that is not sin, and enslave the consciences of their fellow believers with imaginary sin!
If, and I repeat, if those who set up a Christmas tree fall down and worship it as a god or goddess, complete with altars and incense stands, then Jeremiah 10 applies here - FALSE
Jeremiah 10 and the Christmas Tree (Unidentified [Fundementalist?])
1 : the act of deluding : the state of being deluded
2 a : something that is falsely or delusively believed or propagated b : a persistent false belief ...that is maintained despite indisputable evidence to the contrary; also : the abnormal state marked by such beliefs
Obviously, Jeremiah 10, in any capacity would preclude the Roman model of religion entirely as something the real Jeremiah would have certainly condemned, including it's practice of the empire's Solstice worship rituals, and certainly, the practices associated with it's Solstice sacred trees which were directly associated with Apollyon (Apollo) directly mentioned in Rev. 9:11.THE CONTEXT OR THE "CON"
CONTEXT OR "CON"?
"Context" without "text" is simply "Con". Context is obviously critical to interpreting any text correctly, but appeals to "context" that ignore, erase or dispense with actual concrete facts of grammar and text to do it, leaves nothing but a "Con" job in it's wake. Whenever an error is confronted with the plain straightforward facts of Biblical text, the first thing the pig will do is start squealing "context", never bothering to actually establish the fact of what the context actually is, other than some flimsy excuse making to avoid what the text is clearly spelling out in it's language, grammar and history. It is as though, some professor somewhere taught all of these professional excuse-makers in the same class, instructing them to immediately say the word "Context" whenever they get caught lying about anything, and it will magically grant "absolution" for the error no matter how egregious or spectacular the twisted logic gets.
Jeremiah 10 does in fact, have a context, but it's CONTEXT, is not a modern minister finding any excuse he can squeeze out of thin air to excuse a practice that is openly condemned in the Bible. No, that would not be the "context" of Jeremiah 10. And whenever a Solar-Mass Apollo-gist begins talking about "Context", he is the very first to ignore it, redefine it, or pretend it doesn't actually exist. There are ambiguities inherent in language. A single statement can in fact accurately mean many different things, even with a fully known iron-clad context as contemporaneous as a current Newspaper, but the honest goal of interpretation is to accurately understand what they author was actually addressing. Not what we can make his words squawk out like a finger puppet, in order to lawyer-lie our way through a problem. And that is the real true problem Apollo-gists have with Jeremiah 10. They begin with the unmovable position, the unquestioned resolve to continue their "Christmas" practices, in reality, no matter what any text in the Bible, or any part of it, might say, not just Jeremiah 10. Why do they harp on Jeremiah 10? Because that is obviously a very embarrassing text, and if you are going to ignore it and do what you want to do anyway, you have to find a way to excuse or justify it, while you simultaneously tell your congregation the "Bible is the Word of God". Catholics have no such problem, they just ignore it happily (as they do with all the rest of their practices) pointing to the Pope as their "God" on earth, who speaks his "word" to them in the form of his papal decrees, which today might be pray to Mary, and tomorrow might be, drink poison kool-aide or go kill everyone that disagrees with us. And in either case, it will be "the Word of God" to the faithful Catholic, who doesn't need a Bible, but a Pope to justify any practice on earth.
Nicolaitan Protestants are caught in a delima which is irreconcilable. They have a practice from the Pope, and a Bible from the Apostles, which condemn the practice of the Pope. So rather than repent, they begin "spin-doctoring". First it's one, two, three texts, then it's dozens, scores, hundreds, and before it's over the entire book. So singling out Jeremiah 10, when the weight and argument of the entire Book, is against it, is really missing the point, not only of Jeremiah 10, but the entire monotheistic tradition spanning thousands of years and multiple continents. And yet, this is precisely what the Jeremiah 10 Apollo-gist does, when he begins his whining about "Context". He himself, the violator-in-cheif of all, when it comes to actual "context". He extracts the entire book out of it's known historical and cultural "Context" to then micro-manage 1 verse to his liking, using the word "CONTEXT", and then display the chutzpah, to act patronizingly condescending to those who point out his hypocrisy with this text.
But when the word "Context" is invoked, it like any other word, is limited by what it actually means in a dictionary. It is not an ink-blot that one gets to imagine whatever "free-association" that pops into their head. Context is DEFINED. It has RULES. They are relatively easy to follow, and relatively easy to determine if you are giving it an honest effort to do so.
CONTEXT IS DEFINED BY:
(1) Grammer
(2) Definition
(3) Usage
(4) Historical setting
(5) Idiom
(6) Culture
(7) History of interpretation
In all 7 of these categories, the actual and real CONTEXT of JEREMIAH 10 is fully known, and DOES NOT SUPPORT THE CLAIMS OF THE SOLAR-MASS "APOLLO-GISTS". IT CONTRADICTS THEM, AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW: But their appeals to "CONTEXT" are done in hopes their audiences are not FAMILIAR with those facts, and their air of intelligence and superiority are enough to satisfy their insecurities. Obviously not a very honest approach to the question.
THE GRAMMATICAL STRUCTURE OF JEREMIAH 10:1-15
THE "CHRISTMAS TREE" TEXT
The structure of Jeremiah's argument against the SOLSTICE TREE PRACTICE is shown below. It incorporates the ENTIRE RELIGION of the GENTILE SOLSTICE-CULT, not simply THE TREE. It mentions THE TREE, THE IDOLS, THE MASS (Libation), even the ASTRONOMICAL SIGNIFICANCE of the observance. The words marked in GREEN are the [Primary] and LITERAL HEBREW WORDS found in the text itself. And while section (5)-(9) may or may not refer to Idols, as the text is clearly not so obvious in Hebrew, Babel's "Apollo-gists" intentionally ignore everything else in the text, some of which calls them out by name, and clearly points to THE SOLSTICE TREE. Anyone who patronizingly pats you on the head, and tells you this text does not in any way refer to the SOLSTICE TREE CULT among the Gentiles, is simply lying to you, or ignore-ant enough that they should not be teaching anyone.
THE SOLSTICE IS SPECIFICALLY REFERRED TO:
Jer 10:1 Hear the Word which YHVH speaks against you, house of Israel.
THIS SECTION IS CLAIMED TO BE REFERRING TO AN IDOL, THUS NOT ALSO THE TREE
BUT NOTICE THE GRAMMATICAL DEPENDENCY OF VERSE 4, ON VERSE3
Jer 10:4 They YAHPAH/[Brighten] it with silver and with ZAHAB/[Shimmering]; they fasten it with MASMER/[Pegs] and with MAQQABAH/[Mallets], that it WAVER not.
Jer 10:5 They are MIQSHAH/[Tied up/Encircled/Surrounded] like the TOMER/[Palm's Trunk], but DABAR/[Arranged] not: they must needs be NASAH/[Lifted/raised Up], because they cannot TSA'AD[Step]. Do not YARE/[Revere] them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
Jer 10:6 Nothing compares with YHVH, thou art great, and thy SHEM is greater in FORCE
Jer 10:7 Who does not revere the king of the Goyim? Because it is suitable that among all the wise men of the Goyim, and among their dominion, there is none like this.
Jer 10:8 But they are ECHAD/[tied together/bundled] BA'AR/[Kindle/fire wood] and KASAL/[Fat] . [Thier TREE] is a MUSAR/[Doctrine,Chastisement] of vanities.

THIS TEXT IS ACTUALLY SURPRISINGLY DETAILED IN CONDEMNING THE PRACTICES OF SPIRITUAL BABELISM
AND THEIR ANCIENT WORSHIP DONE AT THE APPEARANCE OF THE SHAMAYIM (SOLSTICE)
DIRECTLY CONDEMNED BY JEREMIAH
If SECTIONS 1-4 [Referencing Cutting a Tree], cannot or does not invalidate SECTIONS 5-9 [Referencing an Idol], then how is it that a dual reference to Idolatry, and Cutting a Tree, eliminates the reference to the cutting of a tree? IT DOESN'T.
QUESTIONS TO ASK SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GISTS ON JEREMIAH 10-
1. If you are using CONTEXT, to erase the reference to the TREE PRACTICE, then why do you have to ignore the CONTEXT (from history which documents the practice, archeology which illustrates the practice, and dozens of other references in Biblical text that also refer tot he practice) in order to "define" your "CONTEXT"?
2. If the text of Jeremiah 10, is not about the cutting of the tree, but simply the idol, why you do have grammatical dependency in verse 4, which refers back to verse 3? Verse 4 contains undefined references BECAUSE it is referring back to verse 3. Apollo-gists, take those ambiguities, which are textually directed at verse 3, and insert their own "interpretation" as to what is meant. Why? How can this legitimately be done, and then claim, you are being "accurate" with the text? No such thing is happening. The grammatical rules of the text's own reference is being violated in order to pull that off.
3. Why are "pegs" and "mallets" used to keep these supposed "idols" from "wavering", when the idols Jeremiah was addressing were the kind placed under trees (i.e.,"under every green tree"?), the teraphim? No more than at the most a foot or two high? An idol 12 inches high? Needs to be "fastened" with pegs so that it does not "waver"?
NOTE:
Jer 2:20 For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.
Jer 3:6 The LORD said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.
Jer 3:13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD.
Isa 57:5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?
So, and idol figurine (which we do in fact have archeological remains of) which is only 12 to 36 inches high, need to be "fasted" so that they "waver not"? Really? How imaginative?
THE UNDENIABLE UNAVOIDABLE FACTS ABOUT JEREMIAH 10
(1) Jeremiah doesn't prefce his comment with (this is ONLY about the "idols"). He prefaces the comments with 'LEARN NOT "THE WAY" of the Gentiles. He specifically applies what he is saying to their "entire way". Jer.10:1,2 This includes 'everything they are doing (Including cutting down the tree), and specifically their "calendar".
(2) The IDOLS he does mention, specifically are said to be placed "under the tree" (just as the practice is done today) Jer. 2:20, 3:6,13
(3) the Yalda Practice included "passing through the fire" (Jer. 32:35) Today it is retained as "Shanbeh Suri".
(4) There are no "large Idols" ever found in Israel that match the claims of how idols are being made in this text of the size they are claiming. Not a single one. (Large golden idols were national treasures, very rare and expensive to make) Also "large idols" regardless of material were so heavy, they needed no anchoring as described in V.4.
(5) The "angels" on the Ark were only 9 inches tall. (And do not "illustrate" the practices that are claimed by Apollo-gist described in this text)
HERE IS THE "CONTEXT" WITHOUT THE "CON"
I. GRAMMATICAL (STRUCTURAL) CONTEXT
Jer 10:3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. (KJV)
Jer 10:4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. (King James Version)
Jer 10:4 They decke it with siluer and with golde, they fasten it with nayles, and with hammers that it mooue not. (King James Version 1611)
Jer 10:4 They adorn it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and hammers, so that it will not wobble. (Modern King James)
In order to get the word IT to refer to IDOLS (plural) instead of THE TREE (singular), you have to VIOLATE IT'S GRAMMATICAL CONTEXT in order to do it. That is why VIRTUALLY ALL TRANSLATIONS have the word IT in this verse. IT is the ONLY WAY this text can be accurately translated into ENGLISH. IT means IT(The Tree-singular) not (The IDOLS-plural).Verse 4 is said to be strictly about an idol. Verse 3 is admittedly a tree. Verse 4 contains grammatical dependencies on Verse 3, meaning the ACTUAL CONTEXT GRAMMATICALLY of VERSE 4, is in fact, VERSE 3, not some imagined scheme outside of the text, inserted into it. The fact is anyone may "suppose" it refers to IDOLS. In fact, it doesn't change the prohibition against solstice-worship one iota if it did, because the prohibition is against the ENTIRE WAY OF THE GENTILES (EVERY PART OF IT), but the fact that this GRAMMATICAL CONTEXT IS IGNORED, to arbitrarily assign it's value to a definition which violates both it's GRAMMATICAL NUMBER, and it's clear GRAMMATICAL DEPENDENCY, is not at all staying within THE CONTEXT, within any stretch of the "rules" whatsoever. So "Context" is nothing more than a verbal INKBLOT for FREE ASSOCIATION, to mean whatever you wish to "con" people with. Becaause GRAMMATICAL CONTEXT does NOT support the Solar-Mass Apollo-gist's argument. In fact, IT CONTRADICTS IT! WITH AN "IT".
If you simply insist on going outside the verse to do isogesis, rather than exogesis, then THIS IS THE CONTEXT OF THE BOOK, AND IT'S AUTHOR
Jer 3:6 The LORD said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.
Jer 3:13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD.
DOCUMENTATION OF INTENTIONAL DECEIT BY "BIBLE-MERCHANTS" OVER THIS TEXT
THE SOLAR-MASS "APOLLO" GIST ON JEREMIAH 10
WHERE ARE THESE "IDOLS" DESCRIBED BY "APOLLO-GISTS"
"This text is not talking about a Christmas Tree. It is talking about IDOLS which were CARVED from the TREE, then covered in PLATES of gold and silver and metal. They were carved out of wood, and because the idols were large and made of wood, they were secured with PEGS so that they would not FALL OVER." - Solar-Mass Apollo-gist
Where are they? They love to go into wonderful speculations about why verse 4 is not talking about THE TREE, (that it refers to in it's actual grammar), but instead these really large IDOLS, that are COVERED in PLATES OF METAL. Aside from the fact their explanations are pure fantasy, offered with an attitude, where are these idols? Where are they?
Speculations in the text are either confirmed or contradicted by Archaeology. Archaeology is part of defining what THE CONTEXT actually is in ancient texts. Scholars have spent centuries "speculating" about texts, only to have egg on their face, with nothing more than the turn of a shovel in a ditch in the middle-east. Once archaeological information does come to light on a subject, the time for speculation for honest brokers of sacred texts come to an end. But here, you will find no such thing happening. Archaeology has illustrated the customs being condemned in this text with tremendous clarity for modern readers. Yet, the "speculators" passing off theories about the meaning of this text constructed over a century ago, are still being passed around as the "hottest thing off the press"? So, if you do choose to reject the archeaology of this text, to hang on to a much older "Christmas Apollo-getic" speculation about it, then the question must be asked? Where are these "idols" that you describe? Where are they? Why is it not a single idol in the middle-east, and we are literally talking about NOT ONE, has ever been found they way it is being made in this text, nor found in the location, nor in the manner, Jeremiah is describing them. Not a single one? Not even one.
WHERE ARE THESE BIG WOODEN IDOLS?
COVERED IN PLATES OF METAL?
NOT A SINGLE IDOL HAS BEEN FOUND IN THE MIDDLE-EAST THAT MATCHES THE DESCRIPTION OFFERED BY SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GISTS
OF HOW THESE IMAGINARY IDOLS ARE BEING MADE IN JEREMIAH 10:4
NOT ONE?
NOT A SINGLE ONE
There ARE NO huge idols, made of wood, and covered in plates of metal found in the middle-east. Not a single one. NOT ONE. And this fact is so bizarre, that all the excuse making one might think cannot really either excuse or explain this anomoly. Because obviously, if one interpretation has piles of archeology stacked up behind it, and the other interpretation has literally NOTHING. (And this is simply not a dismissal of a few small finds, which could be interpreted as "insignificant", we are talking about NOTHING. LITERALLY NOTHING that matches their descriptions based on their explanations of this text. Then you simply have to explain this discrepancy with observed reality, unless one is content with being a liar or a fool? You have to explain this discrepancy?
WHERE ARE THESE "IDOLS"?
CLAIMED BY THE SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GIST?
WHERE ARE THEY?
Were there SOME idols made out of wood? Probably. Were there some that might have even been large? Of course. But here is the problem. Jeremiah is addressing a proliferation of idolatry. A common practice that people knew about, and Jeremiah was condemning. There is no evidence of a proliferation of wooden idols in the middle-east. And there are virtually none large enough of the the kind that require being "fastened" with pegs so they do not "waver". Where are the remains of these METAL PLATES? They DON'T EXIST! Wood can be claimed to deteriorate, although they often have no problem claiming wood from Noah's ark, from 7000 years ago is still sitting on a mountain in Turkey, and for some miraculous reason large ancient wooden idols in a very humid and moist Europe managed to survive to this day. Yes to be fair, it must be granted, that wood and moisture produce deterioration. But you are being asked to believe the highly unprobable thesis, all wood everywhere in the arid middle-east deteriorated & magically disappeared when it cam to "large wooden idols", and none of these idols are now left to be found. Not even one. Not even in a cave or buried in a sand dune. Not a single one, anywhere on earth in the middle east, but they did just fine in the bog fields of Europe. As irrational and unprobable as this claim may be, let's grant it for the sake of argument here. BUT... according to the SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GIST, these WOOD IDOLS WERE "COVERED IN PLATES OF METAL"!?!?!
And not a single one, not one alleged "Metal Plate" for a large wooden Idol, has ever been found. Not a single one. Yes, everything else on earth has been found. The Bamah houses, the altars, the stone tablets, the engravings, the amulets, rings, cups, vases, plates, even cult dildos, the details of virtually everything one could possibly even begin to imagine, including papyri texts thousands of years old, and TONS of TERAPHIM, PILES AND PILES, of STATUARY the SIZE OF WHICH VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL to MODERN "NATIVITY SCENE" FIGURINES, perfect for PLACING UNDER A TREE. Literally PILES OF THESE IDOLS. BUT... NOT A SINGLE SOLITARY IDOL, in the manner described by the SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GISTS !!!! NOT A SINGLE ONE !!!!
Isn't the answer a little MORE than obvious here? They haven't found any BECAUSE THEY DO NOT EXIST ! AND NEVER DID ! In fact, "wooden idol making" wasn't even the primary way of making Idols for this part of the world. It was to make them out of CLAY, or CARVE THEM OUT OF STONE. That's simply what the arcehological record demonstrates in the Middle-East. That is NOT the case in ENGLAND, or NORWAY, or EUROPE, where most of these SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GISTS were getting their ideas of how IDOLS were made. In those parts of the world, surrounded by TREES, it was quite natural to make everything from their TEMPLES to their IDOLS out of WOOD. And that of course brings up an interesting contradiction to their claims? If you claim none of these "Wooden idols" survived because the "wood" deteriorated, (and the metal plates just magically disappeared, every single one on planet earth) despite the dry arid climate in the middle-east, WHY DO YOU FIND THESE KINDS OF WOODEN IDOLS IN EUROPE? THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD? BUT NOT THE MIDDLE-EAST? BECAUSE THEY WERE MADE THAT WAY IN EUROPE, NOT THE MIDDLE-EAST!
But in the arid middle-east, where trees do not grow all over the place, and the kind of trees that DO usually grow well, do not have huge massive trunks in them, but rather knarly little shrub like bases, these dogmatic speculative explanations (in the complete ABSCENCE of their ACTUAL EXISTENCE) in the archeological record in the middle-east, is pathetic desparation accepted by Christians, who would believe anything told to them, so long as they could keep singing to their tree, calling it "Christ", on the Satyr's Solar-Mass.
THE FACT IS
THESE KINDS OF IDOLS
DO NOT EVEN EXIST IN THE MIDDLE EAST !
JOHN GILL EXPOSITOR'S COMMENTARY -
1 KING 14:23 QUOTE:"... and groves on every high hill, and under every green tree; that is, set up idols, and temples for idols, amidst groves of trees, and under all green trees; as was the custom of the Heathens, who sacrificed on the heights of hills and tops of mountains, as was particularly the custom of the Persians, as both Herodotus (m) and Xenophon (n) relate; and with the Getae, a people in Thrace, was a mountain they reckoned sacred (o).

LET'S ASSUME EVERY HYPOTHETICAL ARGUMENT MADE BY THE SOLAR-MASS APOLLO-GIST AGAINST JEREMIAH 10, IS CORRECT?
IT STILL ADMITTEDLY CONDEMNS IDOLATRY
And IDOLATRY is precisely what the Roman Solar-Mass now called a "CHRIST" MASS (and it's tree practice) is STILL all about. It was the celebration of the birth of the Idol, that symbolized the rebirth of the Sun, that was (and still is) being worshiped through these "festivities". So if you had nothing in Jeremiah at all, but a condemnation of Idolatry, Solar-mass keepers would still not be off the hook with Jeremiah 10. (Even with the most minimalist interpretation even feasibly possible)
The Minervalia are as much Minervas, as the Saturnalia Saturns; Saturns, which must necessarily be celebrated even by little slaves at the time of the Saturnalia. New-years gifts likewise must be caught at, and the Septimontium kept; and all the presents of Midwinter and the feast of Dear Kinsmanship must be exacted; the schools must be wreathed with flowers; the flamens wives and the aediles sacrifice; the school is honoured on the appointed holy-days. The same thing takes place on an idols birthday; every pomp of the devil is frequented. Who will think that these things are befitting to a Christian ?
No matter how you wish to re-arrange the contents of this text, and no matter which parts of it you wish to claim in reality are or are not there, it DOES directly CONDEMN THE PRACTICE OF THE ROMAN SOLAR-MASS WORSHIP now called a "Christ" Mass.
And that is simply the honest and undeniable fact of the matter. There are many who claim to be "ministers" who simply do not care that it does, and are willing to tell whatever story it takes to get around what it says. There are ministers (believe it or not) who have said with their own mouths, they would rather die, than give up their "Christmas", and nowhere is that more evident than when they begin explaining (or hiding) Jeremiah 10. The ROMAN SOLAR-MASS to APOLLYON now called a "Christ" mass, is at it's very core, ABOUT IDOLATRY. Which is pretty much the "nature" of putting A TREE above the will of God in your life, anyway. It is what it is, by definition, Idolatry. And Jeremiah 10, both coming and going, condemn this "heathen" SOLAR-MASS practice.
CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT IDOLATRY
WHY THE "PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY" PRACTICE?
And as you saw from THE ANTIQUE CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTS MUSEUM, quote above, WHY THE DENIALS today? If there is NO PROBLEM in admitting where it really comes from [i.e., PERSIA, and the YALDA TREE practice]? Why such extreme attempts to deny the most obvious connections today, if not only Jeremiah, but the entire body of teaching in the Bible, does not implicate the practice? And at one time, a substantial population of Biblically literate Protestants to make it an embarrassment? Obviously it does, and people responsible for the changes in terminology recognized the problem they were creating with the original use of their allusions to the original source of the practice in Persia. THAT WAS 1909. Over a hundred years ago now.
The bottom line of everything is not how Dr. Suess "interprets" Jeremiah 10, nor Rabbi Wolfawitzy, nor Professor Peabody, nor Pastor Pottymouth.... it is in the end, what God meant when he said what he said to the Prophet Jeremiah. And God is perfectly able and willing to make his intention fully known to the world, and anyone who has eyes to see. Look around yourself during this high-holy Mass to Apollyon every year, and that is pretty much all you really have to do if you are honest with yourself and know God in any way shape or form. Watch what God does, and you will see what he thinks of it. It's pretty self-explanatory if you want to know the truth. It's not the most deadly, tragic, depressive, disastrous time of the year, every year, because God loves it so much. Quite the contrary, and the obvious nature of this "revelation" of his "wrath" from heaven, is a virtual promise in the Scripture, which zooms way past all the propagandizing and lying some religious leaders can do with an ancient text from a Prophet, thousands of years ago.
Jer 10:3,4 For the customs of the people are vain; for one cuts a tree out of the forest with the axe, the work of the hands of the workman.
They adorn it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and hammers, so that it will not wobble.
Jer 10:10 Jehovah is the true God, He is the living God, and the everlasting King.
At His wrath the earth shall tremble (QUAKE),

HOW GOD "INTERPRETS" JEREMIAH 10
WHAT'S SO WRONG WITH THE "WAY OF THE GENTILES"?
ANYWAY?
THE "SECRET SOCIETY" AND THE SOLAR-MASS TO APOLLYON
2Ki 17:9 And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God,
Sometimes, rather than simply repent, which can be done in the blink of an eye, people who wrongly think of themselves of "Christians", including and following the example of the "Goats" of high-place worship, that call themselves "Christian ministers", the argument then proceeds to "Well, what's so wrong with the WAY OF THE GENTILES anyway"? This comment is followed by a lot of really nice diplomatic sounding phrases that sugar coat their open rejection of what God and his very own real Christ, has commanded (not requested) of them. And really any "Christian" minister who claims to hold himself out to the public in that role, who says such a thing, ought to (if it were legal, moral and ethical, which it is not) be publicly slapped in the face, if not beat with the same whip Christ used on the merchants in the Temple. That is the nature of such a comment from one who claims to know better.
To people who are biblically literate, it is a very stupid comment that needs no explanation or rebuttal, but to the vast majority of the "ignorant masses" that Nicolaitan ministers prey upon daily from their TV screens, it all sounds very reasonable and intelligent. Of course, the ironic thing about this strange behavior is that it is often offered from the lips of "Evangelical" impostures like the Pat Robertson TV celebrity types, who spend most of their time, denouncing the same thing, they now suddenly employ to their defense? Thus demonstrating to the theologically and biblically educated, they are self-confessed frauds. The fact is, they are government sponsored frauds, financed by wealthy tycoons and corporations who want the public brainwashed with a certain political view that favors their mercantile interests (using "Jesus" and "Christ" and "God") to do it to them. They are blatant frauds.
And for Nicolatians who INTENTIONALLY MIX the worship of GOD WITH SATAN, naturally, they would not care in the least, which is which. In fact, it's basic to their entire theological paradigm. So what if it is "the way of the Gentiles" or the "way of the Jews" or the 'way of the eskimos", who gives a flip? But that attitude reflects a lack of education, both theologically and historically, not the presence of one.
The "way of the Gentile" is not simply bad because it's different than a "Jew". It wasn't condemned by all the prophets of Monotheism (some of whom were even/are called "Gentiles" themselves) such as Melchizadek. It was that the "Gentiles" (meaning the masses of the empire) [the "goy", the "herd"] had chosen the "Bad Way". Now, this needs to be made very very clear to the reader. In other words, it wasn't "The Way of the GENTILES", it was "THE WAY of the gentiles". Gentile was not the problem, it was THE WAY, the Gentile empires HAD CHOSEN. And what WAY? Was that? It was to worship the Devil, or Satan, the Serpent. That is simply the real history of the matter. Gentile (i.e., imperial) religion, had chosen Satan worship as it's primary operational system. At the root of every branch of it, was the Serpent, it's enlightenment, it's veneration of occult knowledge, the deification of the self, expressed in it's ultimate incarnation, the emperor, who was to have all rights, and his conquered subjects, absolutely none, except those he felt magnanimous enough to extend on any given day.
Now, that is not simply a narrow-minded little snip at noble pagan religions, which have a proud and glorious past, created by indigenous people and their indigenous cultures, each reflecting their unique respect for nature. The latter is the story that the Vatican is pushing these days, because it is in the interest of the Vatican to propagate that myth. Since people are beginning to realize the Vatican itself has simply institutionalized it's own Roman paganism through compulsion of imperial law on the world. So naturally, getting the world to convert itself to their way of thinking, serve the interests of Rome, and of course it's emperor, the Pope. And thus, like everything else Rome pushes, making itself the measure of all things, this is what shall now be told, regardless of whether it was ever true or not.
But... there needs to be a little reality check concerning some of these propaganda ploys. Gentiles are the ones who abandoned the "way of the Gentiles", and created such a momentous movement toward monotheism, it threatened the stability of the Roman empire. Gentiles turned to God, to the scriptures, to the prophets and apostles, recognizing instinctively the truths that were spreading from house to house, throughout the empire. They weren't abandoning their glorious noble pagan past, they were abandoning being lied too, tricked, deceived, and oppressed, followed by declarations from the ruling elite, it was all "good".
These gods were venerated not because they were so noble, moral, caring, compassionate, and had so much respect for nature, they were being venerated because they lied, cheated, raped, killed and maimed, on such a colossal level, they were "gods" for doing it. (And it was "good") That's why it was called "devil worship". These "gods" were devils. They were the meanest, biggest, baddest in the land. Thus a "god". This was the religious system promoted by the Empire, that THE GENTILES, were even fed up with.
Now whether you are an atheist or a pagan, you have to understand, that before the monotheistic "God" became the sole copyrighted property of the Roman empire, to be then turned into the very same thing, with some new words, believing in "God" as opposed to "gods", and in particular, it's imperial "priests", was a very revolutionary act that catapulted any person who "believed" into an entirely new way of looking at the world. A way of seeing the world, perhaps for the first time for many, through the eyes of intrinsic human rights, granted to all men on earth, by a creator, that was way above the exaltation and arbitrary selfishness of a Roman emperor, even if he was the "son" of one of it's gods. It was a rejection of the emperor and all that he stood for, his fascism, his egotism, his lack of accountability, his lying, cheating, killing, deceit, arrogance and selfishness. Now, even the emperor had something to fear. It was a way of putting an arrogant, spoiled, selfish, human ruler in his place, which is UNDER heaven (like everybody else), not IN CHARGE OF IT.
The reformed Judaism being spread in the New Testament was intrinsically a people's movement. It was even hated by Jewish Rabbinical institutionalist's, who were themselves simply those who had jumped into bed with Rome, and sought nothing more than to benefit from Rome's continued power, as the official appointed puppet-masters in Israel. So naturally the solution to all this for Rome, was simple. Confiscate it, redefine it, and control it for Rome, which is precisely what Rome did. And why now, the more Roman "Christianity" get's, the more it's not worth a damn to anyone including it's own believers.
But there are some very real very objective sociological FACTS about why THE WAY of the SERPENT, was bad. Obviously if worshiping the devil, led to a great life here on earth, and then to a wonderful afterlife in heaven, perhaps everyone really ought to worship the devil. Perhaps that IS the best thing for the individual and for all of humanity? If that were really the case, then who could complain? But unfortunately, it is not. It is not from a political point of view, from a sociological point of view, nor from a spiritual point of view. And in fact, it is so against the self-interest of the individual, and the collective community of humanity, the only way it can be justified, is through deceit, which it openly uses (and must). Spiritually, all things return from where they come. That is a simple spiritual fact. If you worship the Lake of Fire, that is where you s go. End of story. And THIS is why GENTILES, began converting to Monotheism. But what was good for an oppressed Roman, wasn't necessarily good for the Roman Empire. And thus the need for Rome to get involved and in control of it. But Rome never forsook it's devil worship, nor the deification of it's emperor, and both remain untouched thousands of years later, with nothing more than some "Christian" words plastered on the face of it, to justify it. And the same veneration it had for the deceit, trickery, murder and marauding, in the name of it's old gods, it now does in the name of it's new one, and it's "Church fathers" and it's "Saints" and it's imposter "evangelicals" on American TVs. And thus why so many are now convinced even devil worship was better than this.
The fact is Rome never stopped worshiping the devil. It just gave it's devil a face lift, and a new name. (And killed everyone else that remembered who it really was) And if you turn to "THE WAY"of the EMPIRE, you are still worshiping the devil today, as much as you would have back in 33 AD, when it crucified what it now claims to worship. The fact,that insult was added to injury, and the Jewish name Yeshua was contorted into German, and plastered onto it's Latin speaking, German blonde Apollo with Blue eyes, does not "absolve" the sin of it's devil worship one bit, but rather just makes it all that much more deceitful, hypocritical and disgusting to watch. Whether it be the pedophiles in Rome, or it's surrogate imposter "evangelical" frauds on American TV. And nothing on earth more, than calling the Solar-mass worship of Rome's old devil Apollo, a "Christ" mass, illustrates it's blasphemy and hypocrisy within itself, and all of it's fraudulent allies, more than this. It is the true "line in the sand" between the real Christ, andRome's devil Apollo, God and Satan, heaven and hell, salvation and damnation, and why it's secret treasure is guarded with such ferocity.

THE "TREE DOCTRINE" OF BABELISM
VIOLATES THE FIRST THREE COMMANDEMENTS OF GOD
COMMANDMENT #1 Do not have any other gods before
COMMANDMENT #2 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. (Ex.20:4-6)
COMMANDMENT #3 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
ANCIENT TREES AND MODERN IDOLATRY
Why The Idols If It Is The "Tree of Life"?
The people who promote the LIE of "Christ-Mass", i.e., which is in Biblical terms is actually a deception that seduces the innocent into sun-god devil worship, will often claim THERE WERE NO ANCIENT CHRISTMAS TREES. Ironically, they will also be the same people to claim, what they do today, with their statues and figurines surrounding their ancient solstice tree practice, is NOT IDOLATRY. And of course, because Babelist share a particular philosophy that approves of utilitarian deciet, they have a very long history of lying to justify it. So it should not be surprising to find that their claim is a lie, and one that is actually a known lie [even by them]. They know it is a lie, probably even more than you do, but do not consider "lying" to manipulate the general public into their practices, to actually be objectionable.
Even so-called "Protestant ministers" will be found practicing the art of deception and censorship to keep the victims of their fraud from becoming aware that this is what has been done to them. But the truth is, that not only did ANCIENT SOLSTICE TREE practice exist, but it is also true that what they are doing today is modern Idolatry, and they pretty much know it is Idolatry. It is Idolatry that is actually not much more dignified or noble, [nor pleasing to the real God or real Christ of the Bible] than those practices from the ancient past. And, in fact, the practice today is simply more subtle, but just as degenerate.
Below you will see the photographic proof ANCIENT CHRISTMAS TREES existed before Christ, and modern Babelists are Idolatrars just like their ancient counter-parts.
[NOTE: Christmas clergy insist this does not refer to the ancient Yalda tree practice as documented in Persia ]
FROM ANCIENT PERSIA TO MODERN IRAN
However, the Solstice fir tree practice was ALWAYS associated WITH IDOLATRY just as it is today. The TREES were cut down to MAKE IDOLS. It was a CELEBRATION OF IDOLATRY in honor of SHAMASH, the sun-god "CHRIST" OF BABYLON. The verse THEY LEAVE OUT which CLEARLY CONNECTS THE TWO:
Jer 10:8 But they are BOTH FOOLISH and BEASTIAL; THEIR TREE IS A DOCTRINE of הבל . (Trans. "Vanity") (Lit)
Exo 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in הבל
LOOK TO THE RIGHT AT THE STONE CARVING FROM 2000 BCE =======>
DO YOU SEE A TREE (and GIFTS!) OR NOT?
Of course, they work feverishly to create plausible denials over this verse. It is blatent in it's condemnation. But there are literally scores of such condemnations.

JEWISH ENCYLOPEDIA -
TERAPHIM: Plural word of unknown derivation used in the Old Testament to denote the primitive Semitic house-gods whose cult had been handed down to historical times from the earlier period of nomadic wanderings. The translation of the term "teraphim" by the Greek versions, as well as its use in the Scriptures, gives an excellent idea of the nature of these symbols. Thus Aquila renders the word by "figures"; the Septuagint in Genesis by "images," in Ezekiel by "carved images," in Zechariah by "oracles," and in Hosea by "manifest objects" (δῆλοι). The Authorized Version often simply transcribes the word, as in Judges xvii. 5, xviii. 14 et seq., and Hos. iii. 4, but frequently translates it "images," as in Gen. xxxi. 19 et passim. The rendering "images" occurs in I Sam. xix. 13 also, "idols" in Zech. x. 2, and "idolatry" in I Sam. xv. 23.The form of the word in Hebrew must be regarded as a plural of excellence. Just as "Elohim" denotes "gods" and "God," the form "teraphim" is applicable to each single object as well as to the entire class (comp. I Sam. xix. 13 and Gen. xxxi. 19).

THE COVER STORIES ABOUT THE TREE
There is perhaps no greater example of this filth, than the bogus lies spread about Martin Luther and the Christmas tree that he allegedly invented, lighted, brought to his home, and spent hours lecturing about the glories and wonders of to teach the ignorant protestant peasants. All of which are bogus mythology no greater in dignity than Washington chopped down a Cherry tree. Ministers don't get up in pulpits and give sermons based on Washington and his cherry tree, but they apparently do not mind doing the same with Luther and his Christmas tree. If you trace these mythologies, back to the people spreading them, you will always find the same weird connections under the covers that always consistently pop up promoting this garbage, and of course not surprisingly, they always point to the same people, with the same private habits, and the same private associations.
THE ORIGINAL TREE OF DAMNATION
whose head-dressed was literally the flare of the Cobra ready to strike. Pharaoh was the Serpent-god incarnate. The birth of his incarnation, symbolized in Horus and Isis, was on the Winter Solstice. This arrogance, selfishness, and human conceit is turned upside down in the Genesis story. Instead of the Cobra being "enlightenment", it is "deception", instead of Pharaoh being a "god", he is a fallen man. Instead of being a pure-bred "descendent of the gods" (Nephilum) who controlled the world, which entitled him to his throne, he is the descendant of a bunch of half-breed demonic thugs which nearly destroyed the earth and were virtually wiped out in something as simple as a flood. Instead of their towering temples being the "gate of the gods", they are made the "gate" of nothing more than "confusion" and the worship of a LIE. It is quite the reverse in every measure. And one of the reasons it is so hated by the Empire. It challenges every claim, and reduces them to "SIN", "Error" and "mistake in judgement", and the inevitable disintegration and "ruin" of humanity. Because the point of reference in Genesis is not the power of the earthly Empire, and the "enlightenment" and "deification" of it's earthly ruler, it is the source of all things, the universal one that lives in and through all things, the one real true eternal life, from which all things have come.
Where in THE EAST, did these tribes originate from? ODIN, a central figure in the observance of "Christ-Mass" ritual came from what was ancient Northern PERSIA. Where is the YALDA TREE practice still observed to this day? Modern IRAN. Where is there carved in stone actual pictures of the SOLSTICE-TREE practice being observed, predating the time of Christ by as much as 2000 years? Modern IRAN/ Ancient PERSIA.

The "Tree" was known from the beginning by Rome to be a continuation of the Tree from Perisa's "Gan Edin", thus why during the middle-ages, long before they even admit there were "Christmas trees" to the public, the Medieval Church was observing the "Feast of Adam and Eve", and just guess how they observed it? By hanging "Apples" and "Candles" on evergreen trees in homes on December 24th. Remember of course, this is long before, the alleged first "Christmas Tree" has been supposedly invented. And despite it was allegedly the "Feast of Adam and Eve", there was only one tree present, and it was the one with the apples on it. (which they ALSO ate), in keeping with all Rome's practices of Syncretism concerning God and Satan, still seen most obviously today, in Rome's practices of "All Hallow's Eve" or "Halloween".

THE CHRIST-MASS TREE BALLS
The male reproductive organ was of tremendous importance in the Mystery Religions representing, no doubt, power and fertility. Trees were common phallic symbols connected with the sun god.the Ball shaped ornaments, representing testicles were hung all around the phallus.
-- Encyclopedia Britannica, 14th edition, 1973
Families gather together in anticipation and delight when the obelisk (tree‑top ornament) is placed in its position of honor. Among symbol historians, it's origins are said to have initially represented the sexual union between the Babylonian mother-goddess and her SON, whom she took as her husband, (Nimrod). It is a complete and "perfect opposite" to the "marriage supper of the LAMB" also referenced in the Bible.
Part of Tammuz (i.e., Baal) worship was to place golden balls on the tree which were representative of the testicles of Tammuz, as he was also considered a god of sex. -ALL ABOUT "CHRISTMAS" 2000 B.C.E. to 2007 C.E. by Ed Stevens, James Trimm & Baruch Ben Daniel

After his death an Ever-green tree grew full size from a dead stump overnight, symbolizing Osiris's rebirth and immortality. The birth of Osiris was December 25th. This symbolism is retained in the operative system of Freemasonry, a medieval splinter group from Roman Catholicism.
Because ancient Rome, when creating the modern religion we call "Christianity" today, was attempting to create a synthesis of pagan religions in the Empire along with Judaism, into a single "universal" system, it incorporated many practices from the Greco-Roman "mystery religions" (a/k/a "mysteries") into it's system. The rites, rituals, customs, temples, and even gods, in many cases, were simply given "Christian names" and continued with a new sign in front of their Temple.
In Egypt, as in Persian Mithraic mysteries, the use of narcotic chemicals to create "enlightenment" was part of their practice. The word "Sorcery" that is mentioned in the text above, is the Greek word φαρμακεία, "pharmakeia" from which we get the word "Pharmacy",
There are a number of hieroglyphic depictions of plants (many of which are psychedelic) on walls and within texts throughout Egypt. This is to be expected, yet this goes undetected or dismissed by most who are studying Egypt and its religious writings The pillars that are at every temple in Egypt are shaped like giant mushrooms. These are shaped like the Amanita some are shaped like Psilocybe. Others look like tree fungus and are decorated with pictures of an incredible variety of plants. - James Arthur, Mushrooms and Mankind (44 & 53)
In Egypt countless pillars are shaped like huge mushrooms with tall stems, umbrella caps, and mushroom engravings all up, down, and around them. In the Egyptian Book of the Dead they are called the food of the gods, or celestial food and the flesh of the gods. In Egyptian temples there are many pictures of gods/neters feeding humans the ankh cross/circle symbol which is said to represent the water of life and immortality. This also suggests the mushroom as it has been called the Elixir of Immortality and the Fountain of Youth.
All this of course, is directly connected to the "Rotten Tree" of Babelism, we call the "Christ-Mass" Tree today.
THE "SORCERY" OF THE SACRED "EVER GREEN" TREE OF BABELISM
Not only was the ever green tree sacred to Babelism because it uniquely grows in the "high places" where other trees do not, but also, perhaps to no lesser degree, because there is a particular sacred plant which grows under it. The plant was used to make a drug that was ingested by ancient shamans of the Babel cult all over the world. The chemical in the plant is a naturally occuring chemical in the penial gland and as most students of world religion know, the penial gland is associated with self-deification practiced in the eastern schools of polytheism known as "enlightenment" and associated with (The serpent). The same "Serpent" metnioned in Genesis 3 to be specific. Moses writing to liberate the Jews under the hand of the religious poly-theistic solar-deity system of Pharaoh, specifically his claim of self-deification and the Cobra of his "enlightenment".
Normally, "enlightenment" is acheived through the ardious practice of meditation, which if done as needed, consumes ones entire life time (every waking moment) for possibly years, thus why the practice became normative that eastern aspirants would "renounce the world" and go sit in caves for years until they "achieved enlightenment". The process of "enlightenment" involved a variety of different "mind altering" mental techniques, depending on the school, to reach a state of what the New Testament actually describes as being "demonized", or more specifically having a "spirit".
Act 16:16 And it came to pass in our going on to prayer, a certain maid, having a spirit of Python, did meet us, who brought much employment to her masters by soothsaying,
Act 16:17 she having followed Paul and us, was crying, saying, `These men are servants of the Most High God, who declare to us a way of salvation;'
Act 16:18 and this she was doing for many days, but Paul having been grieved, and having turned, said to the spirit, `I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come forth from her;' and it came forth the same hour.
The oldest form, which historically, all the eastern "self-deification" schools can be traced back to, is today referred to as "Kundalini" (wherein the "Serpent energy" [i.e., "spirit"] is drawn up from the base of the spine into the brain). It "comes out" on the top of the head and the center of the forehead (pineal gland) opening the "third eye" which is referred to as "enlightement" (opening of the eyes).
Gen 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened,
In ancient Egypt, this was symbolized on Pharaoh with the Cobra coming out of his forhead, on his head dress. Another aspect to this process of "self-deification" however is that it can be acheived through chemical means as a "short-cut" requiring no time consumption or rigious discipline. This method would have been important for "rulers" who would need to have the alleged advantage of "englightenment" without the common requirements of time consumption.
The use of these poisons to induce Megla-mania is actually so common, they even have given these types of chemicals an official name. They are called "Entheogens", En+Theo+Gen, a greek compound word which means to "generate the god within".
There are a number of toxic poisons that scramble one's brain and induce a permenant state of mental illness referred to as Megla-mania in clinical psychology, but one particular poison, secret-soceity Babelists are historically fond of, is found exclusively under the ever-green tree.
The Amanita muscaria is the red and white magic mushroom that grows almost exclusively beneath Pine trees. One of the active substances in the hallucinogenic mushroom is DMT, an entheogen naturally produced in the brains pineal gland. The Pine tree is one of the well-known central relics of Christmas. Under this tree is where those who are deemed good find their reward in the form of a present. A big red and white rounded mushroom grows under the very tree we are to look under on Christmas morning to find our gift.
James Arthur, Mushrooms and Mankind
Green, red, and white as Christmas colors comes from the evergreen tree and the red and white mushrooms underneath. The word Christmas originally comes from the Egyptian KRST (oiled/anointed one) and Mes, the sacred cakes annually made/ingested by the Egyptians. This Eucharist was originally made from Amanita muscaria.
Although most people see Christmas as a Christian holiday, most of the symbols and icons we associate with Christmas celebrations are actually derived from the shamanistic traditions of the tribal peoples of preChristian Northern Europe. The sacred mushroom of these people was the red and white amanita muscaria mushroom These peoples lived in dwellings made of birch and reindeer hide, called yurts. Somewhat similar to a teepee, the yurt's central smoke hole is often also used as an entrance. After gathering the mushrooms from under the sacred trees where they appeared, the shamans would fill their sacks and return home. Climbing down the chimney entrances, they would share out the mushroom's gifts with those within Santa also dresses like a mushroom gatherer. When it was time to go out and harvest the magical mushrooms, the ancient shamans would dress much like Santa, wearing red and white furtrimmed coats and long black boots. - Dana Larsen, The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003
Pictures of winged Babylonian and Sumerian gods are shown feeding pinecones to humans. The Amanita muscaria is the red and white magic mushroom that grows almost exclusively beneath Pine trees. One of the active substances in the hallucinogenic mushroom is DMT, a chemical naturally produced in the brains pineal gland.

This is to be expected, yet this goes undetected or dismissed by most who are studying Egypt and its religious writings The pillars that are at every temple in Egypt are shaped like giant mushrooms.

Critics of the Vatican have long claimed these practices continue in the inner circles of the Roman Church. The Pine-Cone, the source of the red and white Amanita Muscaria entheogen chemical, are found throughout the Vatican's architeture, and even on the Papal staff itself. Perhaps even the origin of the "doctrine" of the Pope's own Self-deification, could be traced back to these residual practices from the Babylonian mysteries, and it's red and white, Christmas magic-mushrooms.
As has already been mentioned, the modern word "Church" (having nothing to do with the New Testament Greek word "ecclesia/karaim") was actually replaced by the name of the Roman sorceress "Circe", and Circe was directly linked to practices involving Entheogenic poisons.
"In the entrance way they stayed
To listen here, insider her quiet house
They heard the Goddess Circe
Low she sang
In her beguiling voice, while on her loom
She wore ambrosial fabric sheer and bright
By the craft [sorcery] known to the Goddesses of heaven".
- Homer, Book 10 of the "Odyssey",8th Cent.BCE
The "Christ-Mass" tree, as you will see is the Sacred "ever-green" that the Biblical prophets railed against in the "High Places" under which apostate Israelites placed their Idols. But beyond this simple connection to the "High Place" is it's connection to herbal toxicology to concoct poisons that chemically induce brain damage in the victims creating clinical states of megla-mania, misinterpeted historically (and spiritually) as "enlightenment".
The custom of the Tree itself however, and it's ornamentation has not actually changed for thousands of years, unlike what you are told by either well intentioned but ignorant, or intentionally deceitful "Christ-mass" apologists who erroneously attribute the whole practice to the 1800s. The pattern of ornamentation itself is an ancient invocation to the Serpent God of englightment, who the Solar-Deity born on this day, actually was, and in whose honor the tree is erected in the home.
The custom of placing "strings" of ornamentation "around" the tree spiraling upward toward the top, at which point a light is placed, is a replication of the pattern of Serpentine Enlightenment, that Moses confronted in Pharaoh, who (like the modern Pope) considered himself God on earth (i.e., institutionalized megla-mania)... or "blasphemy" if you prefer the spiritual name.
Rev 18:23...and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee:
Most educated Protestants, familiar with "religious phenomenology" are familiar with the Protestant doctrine from evangelicalism and revivalism, found undeniably throughout both history and the scripture, of "hearing God". The concept is expressed in religiously metaphorial terms, and does not involve actually hearing a physical voice, as mockers from dead European State-theologies often like to intentionally distort.
It refers to the process of intuitive feedback that occurs within a Biblical state of consciousness and is expressed neurologically and translated psychologically as autonomic "self-talk". In other words, self-talk that doesn't come from the self, and often results in information indicative of procognition (i.e., the Biblical concept, "prophecy" or "words of knowledge"). This phenomena is one of the central experiences promised to "believers" in the Bible and is often referred to as the "gift of the Holy Spirit" or even the technical phrase, the "word (i.e., speaking) of God".
Gen 3:8-10 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, ...and I hid myself.
In self-deification, this process is put to a permenant end, as the self is all that is left present within the consciousness. That is not to say that the "self" cannot be "self-intuitive" and "self-directed" through "knowledge" and decision making based on "self-righteousness" of "good and evil". This certianly does occur in the Biblical text, per example the "Spirit of Python" referred to in Acts. However, the communication with God, is no more because the "Spirit of Python",and the "Spirit of Self-Deification" is incompatable with the "Spirit of God". One or the other will be short-circuited and cease to exist.
Thus why "knowledge of good and evil" (religious judgementalism) becomes the operative concept of this path. Thus the text mentioned above that the "voice" is no longer heard within Mystery Babylon apostates or it's leadership. Meaning God's personal will for the individual is no longer known.
What evidence do we have that the Papacy has indulged this "sorcery" (Pharmakia) which results in "self-deification" (i.e., Blasphemy)? The conclusions are fairly simple to make although obviously speculative. The Roman Pope was (and still is) given the official title "Pontiff Maximus", which is literally the head of all the religion in the Empire. That means the ancient "mysteries" as well.
These "mysteries" (which both prepared and ingested the magic Christmas mushrooms) as well as induced the chemically prescribed forms of clinical Megla-Mania "enlightement". Since these "mysteries" were "incorporated" into the Roman system of religion we now call "Christianity", their symbols, as well as their secret rites, there would be no way to avoid the conclusion these were not continued in some secret form as well, at the very least certainly for some transitional time... and possibly even up to the present day?
The fact that splinter esoteric groups from Roman Catholicism, such as the Masons, know about this information as well, and the fact that the Phenomenology of "hearing God" is literally completely absent in not only in Rome's theological paradigm, but the personal experience of many of it's priests, saints, and the most "holy" man of all Roman Catholicism (the Empire) the Pope himself, is evidence that the foundation of Roman theology is self-deification, and that the "Mystery" religion from Babylon is certiainly experientially present and dominant.
Psa 95:7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
The institutionalized doctrines of "Self-Deification" are directly rebuked by the consciouness experienced in the "voice of God" phenomenology, which is markedly absent. Whether this abscence is the result of the historic doctrines of self-deification of the Papacy now institutionalized, or the direct product of it's past use of Entheogens involving chemically induced megla-mania for Papal initiates in history, perhaps still secretly observed, (which in turn led to it's doctrines) is obviously something no outsider would ever know. But the speculations are that these practices in some form are still observed.
There is no doubt, as far as the Biblical text is concerned, that "Mystery Babylon" is involved with the use of Entheogens to create chemically induced states of self-deification (i.e., "enlightenment"). Another by-product of drug use is clinically described as "disorientation". This sounds fairly benign as a clinical description however, in terms of "spirituality" it means often interpeting God as the devil, and the Devil as God within one's own consciousness. This is not "clinically" considered a big deal, because religion is veiwed as irrelevent by clinicians. But obviously this is a very real and very serious problem spiritually. Getting God and Satan mixed up within one's own subconscious psyche is of no small consequence.
Historically, the "doctrine" that denounced, condemned, and then eventually criminalized the prophetic, and the lesser but equally important phenomology of "hearing God" is easily dated to the 4th and 5th centuries. It's "abscence" as a personal individual phenomenology in the Vatican, the vast majority of it's officials, and it's official theology, is openly known.
The "Cup of abomination" associated with "Pharmakia", is clearly seen in the elements of "Christ-mass" from it's magic mushrooms, to it's self-deification in the Serpent's tree. The "rotten Tree" referred to by Christ, is LITERALLY the same Tree mentioned here:
Gen 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Gen 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Gen 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Gen 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
And it is the same one mentioned here:
Jer 10:2-4 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen. For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a TREE out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
And while it is not the same botanical genus of tree, (as the first is a Fig Tree and this is an Ever-green) it is in fact, the same tree spiritually, and comes literally from the same conceptual, symbolical and ritualistically historical linage.
The standard procedure for Babelism to justify it's demonic rituals to "Christians" is to do exactly what the word "Babel" says it does, that is "mix", create "con-fusion" (put the two together). In other words, "mix" Satan worship with the worship of God, and call it "esoteric wisdom". But if you go beyond first glance, their claims will easily fall apart in the scriptural text, leaving only the naive and Biblically illiterate impressed. The "esoeteric" Babelist explanation for this obviously demonic Solar-Serpent Tree ritual, is to compare it to the "brazen serpent" that Moses lifted up in the wilderness that brought "healing" when the Israelites looked upon it. And then to point out that Jesus was said to have been "made sin" and "hung on the tree" for "our sins".
But this obvious theological excuse making for mixing ancient Satanic ritual with Christian practice falls apart on several points. (1) Even granted every point made without argument or debate, Christ never commanded people to erect solar-serpent trees in their living rooms on the solar-solstice. So that observation is enough to end the discussion for the intelligent objective observer. (2) Jesus was never called "the serpent", in fact, he was called the exact OPPOSITE of the serpent:
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
And even though he is said to have been "made sin", he is never said to have been made "The Serpent", he is called THE LAMB, not the SERPENT. Anti-venom is made only from Lamb's blood, and this obviously is no accident. (3) The Brazen Serpent that healed people when they "looked upon it" was symbolical of "admitting" or "confessing their SIN", it was not the SERPENT, it was "looking at", i.e., "admitting", confession of SIN, that brought the "healing". The Serpent was still symbolic of SIN. But no one was being commanded to DO SIN. Quite the opposite. In fact, the same "Brazen Serpent" was later erected in Israel and people began to RITUALIZE it! Look what happened:
2Ki 18:4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
No matter where you go with that argument, you end up having to admit, if anything, it teaches you should go "break in peices" your "Christ-mass" tree! (It's hardly justifies this Demonic occult ritual practice)
DO YOU HAVE THE "MARK OF GOD" OR THE "MARK OF THE BEAST"?
THIS IS WHERE THE PHRASE "MARKED ON THE FOREHEADS" IS USED IN THE TANAK:
Eze 9:4 And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.
WHAT WERE THE "ABMONINATIONS DONE IN THE MIDST THEREOF"?
Ezekiel 8:16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house, and, behold,...their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they WORSHIPPED THE SUN toward the east.
[This was APOLLO to the Romans honored on Dec. 25th]
Eze 8:13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
Eze
[This was called ISHTAR TIME, he ressurected, was celebrated in PASSION PLAYS and COLORED EGGS.
The ISHTAR BUNNY was the appearance of the constellation, THE HARE, on the horizon]
JEREMIAH was the other prophet who prophesied during the same time frame as EZEKIEL!
Jer 10:3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one CUTTETH A TREE out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
Jer 10:4 They DECK IT WITH SILVER and with GOLD; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
THIS IS WHAT "MARKED" THOSE WITH "YHVH":
Do you sigh and cry over the LIE OF CHRIST-MASS?
Or do you have THE MARK of the BEAST? And worship his DEC.25TH ICON?
THIS IS WHAT CAUSED THE REST TO BE MARKED" BY THEIR "APOSTACY":
(1) Worshipping BAAL, THE SUN GOD, i.e., a/k/a the Roman Apollo, Dec. 25th
(2) Observing ISHTAR TIME.
(3) Cutting down & decorating TREES with SILVER & GOLD [associated with Teraphim figurines] in his HONOR
THIS IS WHAT YHVH SAYS ABOUT THOSE MARKED BY THEIR BAAL WORSHIP!
Eze 8:18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
WHAT ON EARTH HAVE YOU "AGREED TO"?
The Christmas celebration in Germanic lands is not an invention of the Christian Church but of our forefathers. The day of the Winter Solstice was holy to our ancestors and the period around the Winter Solstice was filled with the fairyland magic (sorcery) of the Nordic soul. In this period gifts were exchanged without an indecent hind-thought of
Heaven... The Nordic man did not think of a reward for decent deeds. For us therefore, even the Christian Christmas REMAINS a festival of Germanic love, Germanic ways and Germanic benevolence. Nazi Governor Wilhelm Kube

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD BIBLE ENCYCLOPEDIA
BELIAL -
bē´li-al, bēl´yal (בּליּעל, belīya‛al; Βελίαρ, Belíar): This name, occurring very frequently in the Old Testament, has the sense of worthlessness (compare 2Sa_23:6 margin); accordingly in such phrases as sons of Belial (Jdg_20:13; 1Sa_10:27, etc.), men of Belial (1Sa_30:22; 1Ki_21:13, etc.), which the English Revised Version usually retains, the American Standard Revised Version more correctly renders, base fellows (so daughter of Belial 1Sa_1:16, wicked woman). There is here no suggestion a proper name. Afterward, however, Belial became a proper name for Satan, or for Antichrist (Thus frequently in the Jewish Apocalyptic writings, e.g. in XII the Priestly Code (P), Book Jubilees, Asc Isa, Sib Or). In this sense Paul used the word in 2Co_6:15, What concord hath Christ with Belial? (Beliar). Bousset thinks that Paul's man of sin in 2Th_2:3, where some authorities read man of lawlessness, is a translation of this term. The sense at least is similar. See ANTICHRIST; MAN OF SIN.

THREE GLOBAL JUDGEMENTS IN SCRIPTURE
It is by no accident, that the occultism of Religious Babelism propigated by the Freemasons and the Roman Empire "Church", is an intentional attempt to do exactly what the BIble promises damnation and divine judgement for. The twisted corrupted theology from oriental syncretism attempts to "mix" Satanism with the worship of God, in an "esoteric" system of Knowledge that is privy only to their secret initiates. This spiritual perversion began as far back as the New Testament itself:
Rev 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the deep things of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
The bogus seduction used by Babelists to suck people into these things (who should know better) is the claim that these forms are "spiritually powerful" and grant "power" to those who known how to "use them" properly. But since the ignorant masses are so developmentally retarded, they are "forbidden" to them, because they would not "use" them properly without the "great wisdom" of their particular "masters". They then simply take all the demonic stuff listed in the Bible, and create long complex excuses for doing it, either literally or in some "symbolic form" to basically conjure up the "spirit" of the Devil, which they perfer to refer to as "Lucifer" (Light Bringer)instead of as "Satan".(as though it actually makes a difference?)
In the end, it boils down to some pretty lame drawn out excuse making for committing intentional blasphemy which is openly damned in the scriptures with eternal hell-fire, and calling it a "wisdom". They are in effect, making themselves, devil worshippers, and spreading this "delusion" among THE CLERGY who run America's Churches. PAT ROBERTSON is on Time Magazine giving a Masonic hand sign, and Jerry Falwell tells people to vote for Satan before a Democrat. As hard as it is to believe, these men are identified as literally "cursed and confused" devil worshippers dressed in "spiritual drag".(at least according to the same Bible they claim to preach from)
THE BIBLE CALLS THIS "WORSE THAN SODOM AND GOMMORAH"
HOMOSEXUALS ARE NOT DEVIL WORSHIPPERS IN SPIRITUAL DRAG LIKE YOUR LOCAL CHRISTMAS BABELIST MINISTER
Eze 16:46 And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters. Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing, thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
What's worse, a preacher who is really a Devil Worshipper, or a Homosexual who thinks they are a sinner?
And who is more likely to be recieved into God's heaven first !!!!
Luk 18:10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
Luk 18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
Luk 18:13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
Luk 18:14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
