Perhaps among the most
futile endeavors in which one can engage these days is the actions to make war
on Christmas. When you think about the
efforts of Lucifer, the dragon, and the war he has perpetrated throughout
history totally without avail, it seems almost a joke the weak efforts atheists
and unbelievers are mounting in today's events.
"Then
the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might
devour her child as soon as it was born."
"Then war broke out in
heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and
his angels fought back. But the dragon was not strong
enough to prevail, so there was no longer any place left in heaven for him and
his angels. So that huge dragon – the ancient serpent,
the one called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world – was thrown
down to the earth, and his angels along with him." "...But they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the
word of their testimony...."
Ultimately the dragon will be dealt with, "And the devil who
deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and
the false prophet are too, and they will be tormented there day and night
forever and ever."
So
each time I hear of the "war on Christmas" I know it is only those
who have decided to do the bidding of Satan who is making his last-ditch effort
to win a battle he has already lost. So
Christians should not lose heart, the die has already been cast, the battle is
already won and any small victory accorded to the followers of the dragon will
be short-lived, their doom is already established and the Christian's victory
is already assured!
