IS A CHRISTMAS TREE AN IDOL?

WHO DO YOU WORSHIP?
PAGANS WORSHIPING THEIR IDOL

"The Lord Says,

‘Do not copy the way that people of other nations live. They are afraid of strange things that they see in the sky.

But you must not be afraid of those things.

 

The customs of those people are useless.
They cut down a tree in the forest.  

A worker uses his tools to make it into an idol. He covers it with silver and gold to make it look beautiful. He uses nails to fix it together so that it will not fall down.

 
Those idols cannot speak. They are like scarecrows that a farmer puts in his field of vegetables.


The idols cannot walk, so people have to carry them.  So do not be afraid of them.  They cannot hurt you. And they do not have any power to help you.’

There is nobody like you, Lord.

You are great and your name shows your power. Everyone should respect you,
the King who rules all the nations. You deserve that people give you honour.

There is nobody like you anywhere in the world. Among all the wise people of the nations and among all their kings, there is no one like you.

Jeremiah 10:1-7  EASY (Easy English Bible)


UNBELIEVERS ARE AFRAID OF THINGS THEY SEE IN THE SKY.  THEY CUT DOWN TREES, CARVE WOOD FIGURES, FASTEN IT TO THE GROUND, AND WORSHIP THESE IDOLS.

DID THEY WORSHIP CHRISTMAS TREES?


THE REAL QUESTION SHOULD BE, "WHO DO YOU WORSHIP?"
