Ezekiel 8:7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.
8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.
10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.
11 And there stood before them seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.
12 Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth.
13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
15 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD'S house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
17 Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
Now, we will go back into the past, clear back to Sumer, the first great empire, built on the plains of Shinar. Sumer was the first empire after the Tower of Babel event where the people's language was confounded by God. The main mob migrated away, and those left were the Sumerians.
The first ruler of this empire was Nimrod, the great grandson of Noah. Nimrod is said, in the old epigraphic cuneiform writings, to have married Semiramis, his own mother. They had a son named Gilgamesh. From this comes The Epic of Gilgamesh, a story of the origins of the peoples and rulers of Mesopotamia. Nimrod's empire evolved into a huge centralized empire found in the story of the tower of Babel.
This is the background of the first Christmas story.
Verse 7-11-- WHO INVENTED CHRISTMAS?
In this account, and two more below, God is showing Ezekiel why he is provoked at Israel for their paganized religion. These verses are about a temple of the most blasphemous and demonic sort, and Ezekiel has to dig a hole in the wall of this pagan temple and find a secret door to enter. While many Bible teachers see Freemasonry in this imagery, I do not. I see a religious syncritism between the true faith of the Jews on one hand, and all the pagan gods of the local heathen on the other hand.
This reminds me of the Roman Catholic Church. If we can carry forward an application of this era of old Israel into our time on one hand, and with a copy of Windswept House by Malachi Martin in the other hand, we see the extremely pagan temple of the Vatican with all its filthy Satan worship, witchcraft, and indeed, Freemasonry. All this filth is merged with the teachings of the Bible into one mass to putrid vomit. It is all very secret, even to this day, and those who dig too deeply into it may find themselves dead.And, who invented Christmas?
We go to the inventors of Christmas, the Roman Catholic Church, in The Catholic Encyclopedia. How can we go wrong if we get it right from them?
At Rome the earliest evidence is in the Philocalian Calendar compiled in 354, which contains three important entries. In the civil calendar 25 December is marked "Natalis Invicti" (Birth of the Sun god).
Concerning the date of Christ's birth the Gospels give no help; upon their data contradictory arguments are based. The census would have been impossible in winter: a whole population could not then be put in motion. Again, in winter it must have been; then only field labour was suspended. But Rome was not thus considerate. Authorities moreover differ as to whether shepherds could or would keep flocks exposed during the nights of the rainy season.
The well-known solar feast, however, of Natalis Invicti, celebrated on 25 December, has a strong claim on the responsibility for our December date. For the history of the solar cult, its position in the Roman Empire, and syncretism with Mithraism, see Cumont's epoch-making "Textes et Monuments" etc., I, ii, 4, 6, p. 355. Mommsen (Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, 12, p. 338) has collected the evidence for the feast, which reached its climax of popularity under Aurelian in 274. Filippo del Torre in 1700 first saw its importance; it is marked, as has been said, without addition in Philocalus' Calendar. It would be impossible here even to outline the history of solar symbolism and language as applied to God, the Messiah, and Christ in Jewish or Christian canonical, patristic, or devotional works.Hymns and Christmas offices abound in instances; the texts are well arranged by Cumont (op. cit., addit. Note C, p. 355).
The earliest rapprochement of the births of Christ and the sun is in Cyprian, "De pasch. Comp.", xix, "O quam præclare providentia ut illo die quo natus est Sol . . . nasceretur Christus." — "O, how wonderfully acted Providence that on that day on which that Sun was born . . . Christ should be born."
In the fourth century, Chrysostom, "del Solst. Et Æquin." (II, p. 118, ed. 1588), says: "Sed et dominus noster nascitur mense decembris . . . VIII Kal. Ian. . . . Sed et Invicti Natalem appelant. Quis utique tam invictus nisi dominus noster? . . . Vel quod dicant Solis esse natalem, ipse est Sol iustitiæ." — "But Our Lord, too, is born in the month of December . . . the eight before the calends of January [25 December] . . ., But they call it the 'Birthday of the Unconquered'. Who indeed is so unconquered as Our Lord . . .? Or, if they say that it is the birthday of the Sun, He is the Sun of Justice."

So, we can see that the Roman Catholic Church, in about 254 AD, set the date of Jesus birth on December 25th. While the Catholics try to distance themselves from Saturnalia, it is very clear that the ancient pagan cult of the goddess giving birth to a son had to be a consideration. The whole concept was that the pagans came to town on Saturnalia, celebrated the son of the goddess being born, and got roaring drunk. So, keep them over a couple of days, and convince them that Jesus Christ was also born on December 25th. This is classic Roman Catholic evangelism, in which Christian celebrations are appended to pagan rituals and feast days.
And, the Christmas Mass is the highest Mass of the year in the Vatican. It is attended by Atheist fornicating national leaders and rich slobs from all over the world. Lucifer is also undoubtedly there to see his pagan traditions exalted in the name of Jesus.
Verse 12-14-- Please read the verses carefully.
This is now when we go all the way back to Sumer and the pagan story of Semiramis and Gilgamesh. The fable goes like this..... Inana was the next goddess after Semiramis, in a later years of the Sumerian empire, and Inana's son was Marduk. Inana is said to have gone to hell to visit Erishkigal, the keeper of hell. Inana was trying to be neighborly to Erishkigal, but when she entered hell, Erishkigal stripped Inana's clothes off and hung her naked from a hook.
Well, Inana hung around for a while, so to speak, and she came up with a proposition to Erishkigal. Inana would go back to earth, and she would send her son Marduk to hell to serve her time in six month intervals. Erishkigal liked this idea, and she let Inana back to the upper earth.
At the right is a stone copy of Inana taken from Sumer. This is the goddess who was replaced by Mary, the mother of Jesus, that is, if you are also a pagan Christian.
So, at the summer solstice, about June 21, when the sun started setting earlier, Inana sent Marduk to hell where he served time for six months. This happened every year indefinitely. At the end of his six months, he was released to go back up to earth, and he was born to the goddess Inana again as a baby. He arrived back on earth at the winter solstice, on or about December 23.
This fable was passed on from culture to culture all the way down the the pagans in Europe when the Catholic Church played their trick. The names of the goddess and god changed, but the filthy legend retained all of its original meanings, and then some. Other names for the goddess, down to the Greek era, were Ninhursag, Ishtar, Astarte, Artemis, Demeter, Aphrodite, and Venus.
So, the women of Israel were weeping for Tammuz. Tammuz was the name given to Marduk in Israel long after the original account in Sumer and Babylon. The Jews had picked it up when they were in captivity, carried it back to Jerusalem, and had backslidden into this pagan cult. At this feast, the woman also lit bonfires, and they leaped through the flames and wailed because their god had died and gone to hell.
The stone sculpture of Marduk above was taken from Sumer.
Verse 15-16-- READ THE VERSE AGAIN PLEASE.
Here are the priests worshiping the sun. Their backs are to the altar of Jehovah behind them. And, what are they doing? They are doing exactly what the priests of Babylon were doing on the exact same day-- watching for the sun to come up earlier. AND, there are 25 priests in the Bible account. Is it not curious that Christmas is on the 25th? The actual shortest day of the year is usually on December 21st. Why wait until the 25th to announce the sun stayed up longer? This is very damning to the Christmas day dating.
The priests of Sumer, and later Babylon, would stand on the steps of their temple facing east in the morning, and on about December 24th or 25th they would determine that the sun had indeed stayed up a few minutes longer.
At this point, the priests of Sumer and Babylon would announce, and this is directly translated from cuneiform inscriptions, "Rejoice, the goddess has given birth to a son." At this merry announcement, the pagans of Sumer and Babylon would run through the streets greeting one another with the news of the birth of Marduk, they would give gifts to one another, and they would light candles and put them in their windows-- 4500 YEARS AGO. I learned this from my own research into epigraphic evidences into the origins of the god and goddess systems of the Middle East.
So, Ezekiel found the priests of Israel standing on the temple steps performing the most vile pagan rituals.
And now, you know the origin of Christ-Mass. It is a pagan holiday passed on from Sumer to Babylon, from Babylon to the backsliddern Jews, from the backslidden Jews to European Greek and Roman pagans, and from the pagans to the Roman Catholic Church.
When you celebrate Christ-Mass you are perpetuating the filthy pagan rituals of the goddess giving birth to a son every December at the winter solstice. Have you ever wondered why godless heathen Americans and Europeans get religion once a year at Christmas. Have you noticed that the filthy faggots and whores of Hollywood and Nashville sing Christmas carols for the world, and some of those carols have some actual truths from the Gospel? It is because Satan gives them a pass to give polluted honor to Jesus from their pig pen on a pagan holiday.
I do not say the following in blasphemy. I say it literally:
FOR CHRIST'S SAKE,
GET CHRIST OUT OF CHRISTMAS.
GET CHRIST OUT OF CHRISTMAS.
The best thing you can do for the Lord Jesus Christ this December is to get him 100% out of the filthy pagan holiday being celebrated.
I have told you the Christmas story, the original one from Sumer, the original one from Ezekiel 8, and the later one from the Roman Whore. I have discharged my duty before Christ to warn the saints of the devices of Satan.
2 Corinthians 2:11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Thousands of Christian pastors intentionally look the other way when this topic comes up because they are WIMPS. They refuse to investigate the Christmas story as it is historically. So, will you keep standing in the shadow of your sloppy agape pastor?
Jeremiah 2:8 The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.
QUESTION: What kind of God do you have? Would your God, in his sovereign power to set the times and seasons of all things in heaven and earth, put the birth of his Son, your Savior, on the same exact day the pagan world is celebrating the birth of the pagan god of Babylon?
If you really believe God is honored by your pious reading of Luke 2, in a effort to candy coat your pagan celebration with some "Gospel," your god is not my God, friend.Has the glory of Jehovah
departed from your church?
So, did you like the Christ-Mass story?
