Do you know that you know that God is for you and no one is mad at you? Do you know that you have
peace with God? Are you looking forward to what God did for you so that you can have peace and walk in that peace with
God? do you think that God is mad at you or that you need things from God or that you have God as an enemy?
See so many think that God is mad at them even though Jesus came. They think that
sin is still an issue and that Jesus only took care part of their sin for they see it as Jesus only dealing will with their
past sin but they need to go to God every time they sin but that God did not do enough to deal with all the sin of all the
men and women in the universe for no one could do that even God. They limited God in their life. Jesus made peace with God
for God made it possible for you to be right with God and you now have peace with God. God is at peace with you. God
is not mad at you so rejoice in Jesus and know that He is at peace with you because the price was paid and you can have
assurance that no weapon can come against you. Rejoice in Jesus and know that God is for you. He gave you
a great gift so we can walk in this gift of eternal life forever more!

Today we will finish the series on gifts and it is at the same time we come to the week of Christmas.
Saturday is Christmas. We celebrate that Christ came which is the greatest of gifts that God gave to us. God gave to us
because of our need and we give back to him because of our love. We want to thank Him and give praise for Jesus and
all that we have in the new covenant. We have it and we need to keep our focus on the joy that is there because of it.
This week is about our intimate fellowship. What we have when we focus on that
closeness and how we can have God live in our lives and what we can expect. God wants us to be overcomers and to flow
in the goodness He has for us. Next week we will have our Christmas message on 12/26/10 and then our New Years message for
2011 on 1/2/11. In 2011 we will study Our weapons. I do not know how many of you were here with us when Our Founder
was here but we focused on grace and since I have been Pastor we have focused on God's Character and the many things
that included. I have been able to contact many in other countries and we want to ask for your support to help us reach
them and minister with them. May God bless you and may you
have a Merry Christmas!

Jesus vs Santa
I have given to you so that you might have fellowship with
me. God gave to you not so that you might just have fellowship with others but have fellowship with Me. Fellowship with
Others as well. Fellowship one with another but fellowship with Me. Let us fellowship so that as we do we can learn God
and who He is. He is our Father and wants to know us. He wants to love us. He wants to be a part of our life and as we get
close to Christmas, it is important to feel close to Jesus. We focus on Santa and gifts but we too often focus on what we
get and not on what we give. Jesus is to be the focus, not Santa. Santa is the world's idea of what Christmas is about,
but Jesus is the gift of GOD to man. Jesus came to be our relationship with God. God came to be a part of our life so that
we can be right with God and that is what we need in this life. A way that we can be right with God without having to worry
about losing that relationship. Jesus is our insurance that God will never leave or forsake us!

Do you like Christmas or do you find yourself upset by the hustle and bustle of this season? SO
many things consume our attention during this time that we focus on that we lose sight of what is important.
God wants us to focus on Him and His Son not just during the Christmas time but all during the year. During the
Christmas time we hear the music played and it is about Santa and called Happy Holidays or XMAS and Christ is taken out
of Christmas and we are forbidden in this nation, that is called a Christian nation to pray in school, or to even have a
Manger scene displayed on gov't ground but it is ok to celebrate Ramadan or Hannukah. We find that the Gov't has set itself
against Christ and the president said this is not a Chrisitan nation. I like Celebrating Christmas and it is not just because i get gifts. I like to be able to buy gifts
for the people in my life and show them appreciation. It is nice to be able to show people you care. Christmas is one of
the few holidays that is worldwide. Most of the Holidays we celebrate in America are only for this country. But New
years day, and Christmas and Easter are Worldwide. It celebrates Jesus and that God loves me and that is worthy of
celebration. It enables me to share my joy with others and that is good. Share the joy with others and let God In!
