THE REASON WE CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS

THE REASON WE CELEBRATE: The Birth of Jesus (Luke 2:1-20 - NIV)  In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register.  So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.  And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were ...

Black on Black Politics

Image
I'm a black conservative. I've noticed for years how Black democrats turn on any one who doesn't believe the way they do and then they claim they accept everyone. Beyonce, who embodies that embrace and love everyone persona, showed her true colors when Obama, whom she donated hundreds of thousands to his 2012 campaign, was re-elected. She celebrated by posting a hand written letter that statement that said, "take that mitches" hinting at the "b" swear word. In posting that little message she demonstrated for the world to see how she doesn't respect people with different views from hers.     Tamera Mowry-Housley got blasted on twitter when she retweeted a comment by Fox News Channel anchor Greta Van Susteren. The original tweet said " I think I might turn this off if it were not my job to watch it...the interruptions make it impossible to learn anything. " Tamera added, " That's all I'ma say about the debate. ;) G...
