Would You Go To Jesus's Birthday Party?

[lightbulb27]

Can you muster the energy to go to a birthday party today? There may not be cake and ice cream there, but in it you can find the peace of heart inside, the greatest of gifts!

He came to save the lost. Luke 19:10

Today is Christmas Eve and tomorrow is Christmas as celebrated in many regions. These days were set aside to celebrate a certain persons birthday...you heard of Him right? That certain person was named Jesus and he lived a long time ago, and lived and died for a purpose...to GIVE YOU YOUR LIFE BACK THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE. He came to save the lost! We honor Him because we are so fortunate he came here! Jesus understanding of the human heart, his emotional intelligence was ...off the charts!! He gave you a gift...it is yours for the taking. To get it...you just tune into Him with your inner being.

Lost human being.., look familiar?

Sadly, a lot of people feel worse than normal this time of year. How Sad, but so true. We know deep inside of us how life is supposed to be with supportive family, someone to care about and for us, friends...but for all too many, we feel ....horrible inside. Hopeless, valueless. Ending it all may seem better sometimes as it would cut the pain. Don't do that! Our pain, speaks to us that something is wrong, listen to it. Folks, we are all the same, ok, and this stuff has on for thousands of years. It is our hearts yearning for what is right, and Jesus came and showed us the way out! YES!!!! Hate him as a false religion, hate all religion, whatever some haters will say. He did the job and did it right! He was the greatest heart surgeon of all time and more intelligent than the top psychologists today. That's an understatement...and were talking 2000 years ago.

Pressures of family, our reality, and the perfect gift, and things we don't have, and many other reasons. Emergency Rooms fill up with people under stress. We see the perfect pictures of family on online and we feel...loss. We meet each other here here on GAG and can see the despair, and in our streets and home towns. Is it you? There is good news for you...what Jesus did and what he taught is the key to YOUR HEART! You see...we get stuck inside of our heads, our suffering, all our problems, what we don't have. The pathway to feeling better is deeper inside of you that needs some hope, security, love. It's basic human needs. Go visit him at his birthday celebration today, in your home town, or wherever you can. On your computer? Pry yourself up and go to his party. Take in the good, be thankful, think about what you can be grateful for, hope for. Reach out with your heart with compassion towards Him and others if you can. These are the deeper inner parts of your human heart, the heart of love that wants connection, acceptance, love, and to give in return. Get to know what He did to save you. He was super smart!! He died, so that you can live.

Thank you Jesus! I hope you can save them, one at a time

OH YES MR LIGHT SIR I WOULD GO AND RELISH IN THE FACE OF MY WHITE GOD JESUS HE DO NOT LIKE THE JEW HE DO NOT LIKE THE HOMOSEXUAL HE BRING US TO COMPLETE PARADISE NO JEW NO GAY NO ONE WHO HURT WORLD WE LIVE IN

[lightbulb27]

as far as I could tell from the vast majority of what I read about Jesus, he loves everyone if they love and choose him. It is the structure around that which creates the exclusion. He accepted Jews... that was the place he started. His parent was Jew. He ate food with the worst of the worst, showed mercy and blessed those who were broken... adulterers, prostitutes, tax theives, killers. I don't see why anyone would reject Jesus. Reject church, religion, I get that. I'm not so sure he was white, probably quite tan. I can understand distaste for color, that's human nature. West culture views "white" as pure. I wish Jesus was blue, make it easier...

[Opinion Owner]

NO THE JEW SET HIM UP TO DIE THE JEW WAS TRAITOR

[lightbulb27]

Yes he did, traded him in for money! A human flaw, not a Jewish one. Head of my church is a Jew, he's a Christian now, and he's 10x more intellect and studied than I am. I'm pretty sure Jesus takes Jewish people... It's the human heart and soul he is after, not outside characterists or family lineage. That's my opinion, you have right to yours. If I happen to get to heaven and find out people are excluded because of some family they were born into, I'll turn around. But that isn't the case.

[Opinion Owner]

ONLY FOLLOWER OF BIBLE GET TO HEAVEN ONLY MAN AND WOMAN WHO WALK WITH JESUS AND HATE JEW AND HOMOSEXUAL GET TO HEAVEN

[jacquesvol]

[jacquesvol]

DEC 25 seems a standard birthday for deities.
Probably because of Winter Solstice so close.

[jacquesvol]

An example:

[jacquesvol]

[lightbulb27]

Interesting. doesn't surprise me the day picked has greater meanings.

[jacquesvol]

Early Christians just picked a day which was already very popular and grafted Christmas on it

[HOAAH]

My daughter's classroom had a birthday party for Jesus birthday. I did not go, but did buy a gift for babies ages 0-12months, to be donated to the poor

[lightbulb27]

so sweet, thanks for sharing!

[Alfadhirhaiti]

No i wouldn't in fact this pretty much sums it up
"i don't trust Christians they preach about peace and understanding yet they rule by the sword"
Every Abraham religion isn't spiritual you fear a your God where as mine don't want fear, fear is useless it stops you from achieving or doing anything so we cast off fear, i fear no man nor God those that want fear are demonic in nature. The only i would go to his party is to raid it with my shield brothers and sisters, we like cake and chocolate milkshakes otherwise my time would be wasted him talking about your other God "the devil"

[lightbulb27]

Of what belief sysyem are you?

[Alfadhirhaiti]

In my experience those who ask about my beliefs wish to attack them.

[lightbulb27]

I'm sorry for the trauma you've experienced. The human condition is an unfortunate and complex one. You will see that all over this site if you tune in...

Ever person has a unique perspective, I accept where you are at... who am I to invalidate what you've seen? Doesn't mean I agree, beliefs are strongholds inside us... in my experience... usually based upon emotional events, often trauma.

We are all products of our environments. The human condition is we try to make sense out of what we experience, with a childs mind, and our true makeup gets lost.

I can't find Jesus doing anything wrong from what is written. Followers, they have. There aren't that many Christians around, a lot of people who wear the label. You just wanted to be treated with respect and love, and got something else. I hope you find what you want in life.

May you find the peace you hope for.

[Alfadhirhaiti]

Well for starters am use to the hate and misinformation, my stance is part of my beliefs "speak little listen plenty" my Gods teach me many things such as the strength to carry on to teach the world through my actions to be kind and never deny my feelings for example lust and desires I have my will and that is my strongest ally. Everyday is a war and I must fight it with a smile on my face and peace in my heart, "I find it funny when they preach about salvation " to get into heaven one must deny themselves we are products of our enivoment if we allow ourselves to be, we are victims when we allow ourselves to be and I am a product of my own making and I will never be the victim again "I allowed myself to be a victim and I payed it well".

My spiritual path is not one for everyone and when you find out my path the outside of it always scares people even my partners but when you feel the powers of ritual and see the beauty of standing before the great masculine and the feminine you being to understand that wrath and mercy are not what a real Gods are, you being to slowly realise he’ll doemst exist and no one is forsaken, "in the forest see Titans fall to rest, people dance under the moon in circles". Fear is useless and when talking with the spirts of the land and the Gods you realise many things like fear is for the weak and often it’s the fear of the unkown, truma is something I felt many times before it makes me stronger.

[lightbulb27]

I'm curious, could you describe the attributes of your God (s) then. Does love exist in any of them? Or are they more spiritual powers over nature?

What I know of trauma, my own and others, is what you did is a right path. It either takes you down, or it makes you stronger.

"deny self" - not sure what they were saying to you, I have my view of it. Have you read what Jesus said for yourself, or when you were exploring beliefs? some people choose to take the good of everything, some choose to believe nothing, you choose to believe in something.

[Alfadhirhaiti]

The powers of my Gods... okay I will tell you a dream I had p when one of them came to me and help me emotionally.
I was trying to find a spiral path I prayed to every God I knew even yours I referred to him as Yeahway ((spelt it as it sounds I don’t know the spelling) and only one I didn’t meantion came to me.
In my dream I was in my childhood home everyone was happy and I was sitting in my shorts and long shirt I have, my older brother was eating by the door for food p, now jumping forward after he left another knock on the door and I opened it and there was a man he felt strong and kind the energy he gave off was like God himself was with me I felt safe and warm it was overwhelming pure love, he came inside and spoke to us all and told me to come with him into our bathroom (we used to have our private conversations in there it was small house and we were a big family) and he told me this "you know who I am and you know who sent me am to give you three questions and I will answer them with the truth" so I did one waswhy am I trans wouldn’t it be easier to be born as a girl from birth? I cried and he looked at the floor and went red then he looked up into my eye and said "because it is a lesson you must learn, ask yourself why do you exist take away everything they say all the hate and ask why would we create you if not for a reason?" I woke up in tears and my room felt calm for a month I felt a hand hold my when I went to sleep and that is why am pagan, your God ignored me and left me in slince and this pagan God came to me and gave my life purpose, I won’t go too hell for being trans because God made me this way to teach me a lesson one I will gladly learn.
I did and for long time I referred to him as chaotic however why would I condemn a God for the actions of his worshippers? Although it sounds like I Direct them at your God I don’t i mean to refer to his worshippers.

[lightbulb27]

Had discussion with other Christians on this the other day, how people with certain issues do not feel welcome. It's a problem and sensitive one.
So you are a female wanting to be male? Our dreams are powerful messengers.
So this is interesting, you would associate that God with loving you. That is accepting you as you are and loving you regardless of any material flaws. Thus it is a loving God, you call pagen, is that right?

[Alfadhirhaiti]

Ja he is the proctor of us all here in this world, in the Pantheon I follow he proctors all humans from the forces that are associated with chaos and that is why we thunder storms in winter, although the love of my Gods even extend to these forces and the God that created us all will offer them in my vestion of heaven with song music and dance, he feels very strongly that I’m order to not have a cosmic war you must invite even your worst enemy to every party as a sign of peace.
Yes am MTF (male to female) the one reason why no matter what everyone says I have it on good spiritual Authority that I am what I clam too be a female, my Gods made me this way for a reason one I don’t want to know why because I could have hurt someone like me in a past life. Your faith doesn’t repeal me nor does it many of us with these sorts of problems but Christmas themselves drive us away preaching we are men because the Lord doesn’t make mistakes and using hell to threaten us, they right Gods don’t make mistakes so that means someone like me was born with the intention of making me trans. My spiritual path believes we are genderless we can be born men in one life and women in another however making one like me just means we are the way we meant to be, simply put my brain is female even if my body was born differently, I spoke to cis female who knows am trans and she told me that the energy I give of p, the way I move, talk etc she forgets am trans every time we speak. Therefore my soul was made female my body was made male for this life. Hopefully that helps.

I would assume even Christian God is of love not wrath nor mercy I went deep into meditation once and completed the aspect of heaven and a voice that was in my mind clearly stated this "the kingdom in the sky is built on the very land of enternal summer" (the pagan heaven called the summer lands) so that to means every Christian and every pagan are in fact going to the same place we’re all souls go.

[lightbulb27]

Interesting, I've not met many trans, a few gay. lets keep chatting if you don't mind so I can understand better, and maybe you gain some insight from me for your path, ok? To me, we are all on our path of life... we start at a point, we learn and grow. My experience, most are trying to figure ourselves out eventhough we don't want to change.

How old were you when you started to feel like you were female? Do you remember the traumas?

Yes, the Christian God as I understand it is love. Love is our purest emotion and what we seek. But man fell into many other emotions that separated us from God, being shame, fear, envy, etc.. Our core image is love. Jesus was the human representation of that so we could see what love looks like. That is how I read and understand the Bible. Others are't always mature or healthy enough to see that.

How much do you understand how the human mind/heart works within? I think I can explain some things that shed some light upon and maybe you can help me validate that is accurate from your viewpoint. The messenger you had, I think was a gift from above and not sure why you didnt' identify that as an angel of God (love)... maybe because of the traumas from other "Christians".

[Alfadhirhaiti]

Well from what i remember i started to feel female when at the age of 14 to me it was when te difference of being male or female starts to show, i would want to do all the things females did at the time, i'd much rather chat about anything that wasn't cars or football ><. I found out very quickly that my mindset was on the female level, however that was when people manly teachers, the three that gave me the worst of it was my maths teacher, P. E teacher and my R. E teacher, it is to personal to say anymore.

No i don't mind as one of Gods teaches me too seek Knowledge so i may tempter it with wisdom.

I personaly think it is the "fear" aspect of the bible with Gods mercy and wraith it is true even my Gods have wraith but doesn't all parents using the word wraith just masks the word Upset with ones actions, lets say we have a group of children and one misbehaves and bullies the others you take it out of the playing pen and make it stand in the Conner until it learns to be good, so letss call it death, death is there so we can learn what we did was wrong so we are made to understand what and why, then we get put back on earth as someone else with a fresh start. Am unsure what you mean by an message i had but an angel to me is called something else, i am used to the "crazy" sorts and usually when someone finds out am pagan am suddenly boarded with "save your soul" however to save my soul would imply it is in danger which it isn't.

[lightbulb27]

What is an R. E. teacher? Did someone impose on you, assault you, do you remember and can you share it? That kind of stuff is very impactful to ones development and how we view ourselves. These things can even happen before we are born. We all seem to process things differently too, so personality is a factor in how you dealt with it.

Basic Human Beings - if you get this, you will understand more than most people. We operate out of our sub conscious minds, the conscious mind is a light filter. When it comes to how we feel about ourselves, our image, define ourselves, act, it is the sub conscious programming we received in childhood that rules. In general, it is emotional wounds that are in charge as those are the things that were strongly impactful. Children don't have the ability to make sense out of that stuff, so we start processing and trying to make sense when we get older and we spend our lives sometimes working it out.

As we hit puberty, the hormones kick in which drive our emotions and we associate to male or female, but we have both masculine and feminine with in us. For a boy, it wouldn't take much for someone to... for example, harm the masculine side of them... tell them it is wrong, tell them they are a girl, it's oppression... and trap that masculine so it doesn't take root. The wound would then control the person until it is up rooted. Thus the mind and body feel feminine. That's how I make sense of it... it is emotional programming. It could very well be hormonal impact at some earlier stage, but emotions are powerful things. This happens in most people, we are all functioning out of childhood wounds... I have my own which were unique to me and how I processed them, you have yours.

[lightbulb27]

This would be the feelings of fear, shame, I'm not good enough, abandonment, malice, envy greed. As children, we experience life and that is our essence of normal. But our true nature is lost in that, we are separated from love, which is God in my view, who sensed your suffering and delivered you the true message that you were made for a reason, you are loved as you are. That doesn't mean that is you, but you are accepted as you are designed in image of love, Gods image. That's how I see it, does that make any sense from your reference point?

So I wonder if any of that is on track for you? There is incredible power in healing, in healing old emotional wounds that were, in effect, lies that we believe as children because we can't make sense out of them and they entrap us. Once you get the right perspective on them, speak truth to them, rid them from your body, it's like chains come off. When you feel that, then you have something of huge value to give to others, and then you feel like life has greater purpose. When freed, we get back to our truer selves, we grow again from there. Was true for me. So many people are impacted in this way, it's the human condition, in all different ways... like a beautiful vase broken to many pieces. One person at a time to be helped, but so easy to do harm... such is the challenge.

I don't want to deny how you feel. You may certainly feel a certain way, but if there are blockages within you, as they were in me for my own issues and still some, then clearing them out, sets you free to live more free.

We have the essence of truth within us, our true self. I wonder if you've felt it before, can you recall a time you felt loved and valued at a young age? What are those traumas you experienced?

[Alfadhirhaiti]

I let go of shame and of guilt what is the point of feeling those ways?
I can’t deny that I won’t fight those that seek to do harm as my Gods teach that at times of war (everyday we live is another battle) we learn to develop ourselves and grow. Another saying is "we mature with scars not age" I can certainly say I look at my scars in a new way and am happy I made it out alive the Gods truly are great.

I disagree time doesn’t heal every scar and some feaster and become infected however time does another thing that no one sees it allows us become more of what and who we are p, I m time I when I had some very old feelings come to me after burying it so well I slowly started to feel them again and then I got rid of all my male clothes and embraced myself as I truly am.
Children grow up and become adults and thus my Gods treat me as such an adult, does your father still treat you as a child at 30? No does a grandfather treat everyone younger as a child? No, out innocents doesn’t get lost it becomes something more, like a burning flame it become my will, which I have learned to use to affect the world around me.

That is okay but the I, age of God is how man was created however woman in the very image of our Lady the Goddess and it her we return to when we pass, she is the great feminine and it her that gave birth to everything we see, everything that is, was and will ever be the Lord only helped.
Sex to me is an reacreation of the creation and so it is pure magic, sexual energy is the strongest because it is created out of love even if that love was just for one night. Therefore I feel Christsins knew about this from of magic and made it a sin so woman and men alike forget its power, which the power of love.

[OlderAndWiser]

My church actually has an event called Birthday Party For Jesus. We get the names, ages, and sizes of children who are in foster care and who otherwise won't receive any Christmas gifts. Each of us buys gifts for one or two children and we then gather, sing Christmas songs, and place the gits on the altar. It is a great time to be reminded of the lessons Jesus tried to teach us.

[Ellie-V]

Umm... I’m not religious. I don’t hate it, but it’s nothing I care to be apart of.
Cool take though.

[lightbulb27]

Thank you, I respect that. I wasn't until 30's. not even religious though, take away the God stuff... Jesus was a relational, emotional genius.

[Ellie-V]

I don’t agree.
I was raised into having a relationship with Jesus... I’m just not a fan. But it’s cool that you have a positive relationship with your Jesus. Whatever makes you happy ☺️

[watercolor_lions]

Super like. You go, you little light. I am so proud of you.

[lightbulb27]

thank you! beautiful lion!:)

[Spawnface]

You mean christmas? No. May as well follow lucifer, oh how thou has fallen and sought to seek the throne of the most high.

Also, loyalty from a master should never change because of a matter of distance. There is now and then, and frankly then is a poor choice in the conduct of loyalty.

[Paris13]

TOMMORROW AND EVEREY DAY SINCE AGE OF ACCOUNTABILITY. xx

[jacquesvol]

Copts think it's Jan 7th.

[Paris13]

@jacquesvol That is Over in Egypt. bae. xx

[jacquesvol]

Did Copts switch to the Gregorian calendar? Indeed, in the eighties.

[Deathraider]

Sorry, I'm attending Isaac Newton's birthday party right now. I can go to my Mexican repairman' house.

[DublinRollerGirl]

Loved it! Wise words there.

[lightbulb27]

Thanks so much! Lovely pic! Lift each other higher, have a wonderful Christmas!

[ohskippy]

Just bring loads and fish, you be well fed at that party as he can turn water into wine

[raton21]

I would go...

But Jesus was born in March.

But Christmas are celebrated now, because Christians wanted to compete with pagan solstice celebration.

[watercolor_lions]

Yeah, but I still celebrate it. Because they integrated it into pagan customs to convert the pagans. So the focus is still Christ.

[FunkyMonkee]

Ummmm, isn't that what Christmas is supposed to be about? someone makes up a fictional story about someone that never existed and the world believes every syllable of it!

[SirRexington]

I don't have anywhere to go, no family, no real friends who will have me intrude on their own personal experience with the holidays...

So it doesn't matter really.

[SirRexington]

If by Jesus' birthday party you mean Christmas, even though Jesus was said to be born in July or August and Christmas isn't a Christian holiday...

If you meant Jesus' actual birthday party, no because I'm not religious.

[Cryptconfessions]

If he would still accept me

[lightbulb27]

Jesus accept all. Why would he not? His followers had been... Killer... a thief.. .. prostitutes.

[Cryptconfessions]

thanks brother

[jdog1992]

Well I would for the fact his jewish name is yeshua. Even records say his name is yeshua and it doesn't translate to jesus.

[douride2]

No thanks I'm busy with family that day.

[lightbulb27]

Haha. Someone dont like wine i guess...:)

[douride2]

That is right me & wine are mortal enemies.

[DakotaNorth]

Jesus, not being an earthling, would not have birthdays based on an earthly calendar.

[DublinRollerGirl]

The calendar is based on Him. It started with his death 2018 years ago.

[lightbulb27]

buy he was born right, Christmas is his celebrated birthday.

[DublinRollerGirl]

Of course. If He wasn't our faith would be in vain.

[DakotaNorth]

Maybe it is.

[DublinRollerGirl]

Speak for yourself on that.

[DakotaNorth]

You are only familiar with time calculated by earth chronology. A being not from planet earth would not record their birthday using earth calculations. Only simple minded earthlings would be so naive.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

I would attend Jesus' birthday party!

[TsubasaCorrupted]

No I was cooking. More important than a vengeful sky hippie litch Lord.

[watercolor_lions]

There is a way to say no without unecessary hurtfulness. It leads people to understand and respect you.

[TsubasaCorrupted]

Who do I offend with my wording?
Thus far, people who I tip toe around have not respected me. Some have after I have torn into the religion in response to their disrespect.

[watercolor_lions]

Dude. I am a Christian, and I wouldn't say that to a Muslim.

[TsubasaCorrupted]

Congratulations, how does that in any way have a bearing on me saying it? We all are different and have different reactions to different things.

[B15H0P]

Nah, he'd turn all the alcohol into water.

[Rave199]

The man who started so many problems in our current world FUCK NO christianity is better off dead where it belongs

[Bananaman177]

A world without Jesus would be just like the way the world was before Jesus.

Pure barbarism with no respite.
