Learn not the way of the heathen (Jer 10:2)
The people imagine a vain thing (Psalms 2:1)
They deck a tree with gold and silver
And to it glad tidings sing (lyrics below)

The stock is a doctrine of vanities (Jer 10:8)
Man's traditions filled with mirth
Celebrating and amusing themselves
Under the pretense of Jesus' birth

If you regard a day
To The Lord regard it right (Romans 14:6)
He doesn't need your presents, but
You need His presence in your life

O Christmas  Tree lyrics
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
How often has the Christmas tree
Afforded me the greatest glee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me.

Jer 10:2-4
Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. 

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 ax. 

They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. 

Psalms 2:1
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 

Jer 10:8
But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities. 

Romans 14:6
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Follow after righteousness (Isaiah 51:1)
Follow after Me (Jesus)
I am meek and lowly (Matt 11:29)
A narrow path you'll see (Matt 7:14)

I am the rock from whence you were hewn (Isaiah 51:1)

You must deny yourself and take up the cross (Matt 16:24)
Before we move along 

I know you are heavy laden
And I will give you rest (Matt 11:28)
You must put forth the effort (Luke 13:24 and  II Tim 2:15)
If you want to pass the test

Don't seek after your own eyes
Or after your own heart (Numbers 15:39)
They will lead you astray
All My might to you I'll impart (Isaiah 40:26)

Sow to yourself in righteousness
Break up your fallow ground
You will reap My mercy (Hosea 10:12)
In Me, all hope is found (1 Thess 2:19)

Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth.

Exercise thyself unto godliness
Knowing it is profitable unto all men
Trusting in the living God
For this life and the one after it

Being an example of the believers
In word, conversation, and love
In spirit, faith and purity
Always looking up above

Giving attendance unto reading, 
To exhortation and to doctrine, taking heed
Occupying until He comes
Knowing he will provide to those that need

Meditation on these things
Giving yourself wholly, not in part
Desiring all His promises
Serving Him with all your heart

I Tim 4
But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. 

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. 

This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. 

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 

These things command and teach. 

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 

Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 

Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 

Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 

Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. 
I Cor  11:11-12
Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.  For as the woman of the man, even so the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

Is it not for you to know judgment?(Micah 3:1-2)
Can you see you are in the mire?
The prophets divine for money
And the priests teach for hire (Micah 3:11)

The evil you love,
And the good you hate to do
Then when you cry out to The Lord (Micah 3:4)
You get no help, it's true

Zion will be plowed as a field
And Jerusalem as heaps (Micah 3:12)
But the Lord will leave a remnant
And His ways they will keep

They will be His people
With their whole heart, they'll return (Jer 24:7)
His commandments they will keep
For His Spirit, they will yearn (Psalms 42:1)

Loving The Lord  with all their might,
Teaching their children along the way
As frontlets between their eyes (Deut 6:5-8)
Watching and Praying all the day (Mark 13:33)

Micah 3:1-2
And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment? 
Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones; 

Micah 3:11
The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us. 

Micah 3:4
Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings. 

Micah 3:12
Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.

And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.

As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. 


Deut 6:5-8
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. 

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 

And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 

And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 

Mark 13:33
Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Woe to them that are at ease in Zion (Amos 6:1)
We are yet at war!
Our weapons, they are mighty
Though they are not carnal ones (II Cor 10:4)

You must take up those weapons
And fight every day
Casting down imaginations (2 Cor 10:5)
And thoughts that are out of the way

Every high thing
That tries to exalt above
Our blessed Lord and Saviour
Must be assaulted with love

Filling your mind with the truth
So you needn't be ashamed (2 Tim 2:15)
Neither barren or unfruitful (2 Peter 1:8)
In the knowledge of The Way

Rightly dividing the truth (II Tim 2:15)
In the doctrine, taking heed
Saving both yourself
And those that hear thee (I Tim 4:16)

Amos 6:1
Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came! 

II Cor 10:4-6
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 
And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled. 

II Tim 2:15
Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 

2 Peter 1:8
For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

I Tim 4:16
Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Little Children

Born again in Christ
As a child just out of the womb
The world is a whole new place
Learning to walk anew (John 3:3, Matt 18:3)

At first you may stumble
In fact, it may take a while
As you shod your feet with peace (Eph 6:15)
And your face now bears a smile

Your tongue now has a law (Prov 31:26)
Kindness is the welcomed rule
A heart that desires righteousness (Prov 11:19)
A conscience that is true 1Tim 1:5)

Having loins girt with truth (Eph 6:14)
The goal is learning to stand (Eph 6:13)
As darts come from all around
Holding The Lord at your right hand (Psalms 16:8)

John 3:3
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 

Matt 18:3
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 
And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 

Eph 6:15
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 

Prov 31:26
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 

Prov 11:19
As righteousness tendeth to life: so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death. 

I Tim 1:5
Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: 

Eph 6:14
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 

Eph 6:13
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 

Psalms 16:8
I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

STANDING AMAZED

in the presence of a MIGHTY GOD!!!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aoD17DWIN4

(not affiliated nor do I agree with this church's teachings)
"would God that all the LORD'S people were prophets, 
and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them"


The seventy elders gathered
The Lord came down in a cloud
They all began to prophesy
His spirit was spread around

Medad and Eldad began 
to prophesy within the camp
Joshua wanted to stop them
To Moses a message he sent

He wanted them to stop
But Moses gave him a reply
Oh, that all men would have the Spirit,
That all would prophesy!

Strengthen your brethren
Exhorting one another every day
Holding fast the faithful word
Convincing those that get out of the way




Luke 22:32
But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. 

Hebrews 3:13
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin

2 Tim 2:4
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 

Titus 1:9
Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.

Psalms 31:23
O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. 

Psalms 30:4
Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
