Many fascinating things can be learned from the Christmas story! One thing cannot be denied! God always wanted a family! He started off creating one man and one woman! Not two men or two women but one man and one woman! The challenge got bigger when God wanted a son born of human parents! He looked over His creation to find the right parents. They had to be Jew for salvation comes by the Jew! The new millennium had just begun and the signs in the Heaven and earth were just right! The virgin birth predicted hundreds of years before by the Prophets was ripe for fulfillment! God found a young Jewish couple from Nazareth that were about to be engaged. Their names were Joseph and Mary. Then Joseph found his espoused bride pregnant? Joseph minded to put her away privately! Then an Angel appeared unto Joseph and told him his bride Mary was conceived by the Holy Spirit! So Joseph became the step-father of Jesus! Years later Jesus told us that pure religion was taking care of widows and orphans! God always wanted children to have both parents! My Bible says God hates divorce! He wants to come to the aid of the victims! It seems American culture today does not hold the values God has established for the well being of the family? Jesus God’s son could not increase the size of His family until He went to the Cross! Today Jesus Father is your Father! Christmas means many things but most important you are now in God’s family now and forever! Pastor Oscar Cope, Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Fairburn, Georgia.

Christmas Tax! Luke 2:1
“And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that the whole world should be taxed!” Comment: Did you get that? That the whole world should be taxed! Caesar was surely a member of the Democratic Party! He must have been their poster boy! This decree did get Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem! Caesar did not know he was fulfilling Bible prophecy with his tax decree! Remember years later Jesus said render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s! So the very first Christmas benefited everyone including the politicians! Everyone wins with Christ! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
The Game is On! Bible Study
The game is not over but it is on! So when is the game over? When every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord! I want to give you the ancient nations as listed in our Bible and then i want you to see the modern nations that make up those ancient nations today! Let us start with the Persian Empire. The nations today that make up the Persian Empire are Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan! So when you read end-times prophecies in your Bible they include these nations! American’s have you already noticed something? It was the Persian Empire that attacked us on 9-11. Our wars in the Middle East since have been with the Persian Empire! President Obama pulling us out of Iraq and the treasures gift to Iran has strengthened the Persian Empire! Thankyou America says the Islamist! Russia or God and Magog have been strengthened thanks to Hillary Clinton’s reset button with Russia! They have since taken territory and are one of two major players in the Middle East including Iran now as America is on the decline! However there is a bigger picture at home in America! I like the Greek translation of the word Magog in the Book of Revelation! The word translates as an Anti-Christian party! Is that like the Democratic party? I want to wish you a ? Hold it! Is it a happy holiday? Season’s greetings? Happy stocking filler? Tensile holiday? Music festival? Sorry! I remember now! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Pope for President! Isaiah 5:20
The following are polling questions that will help us determine who is in the lead in this race? This form was developed to help you critically think about your choice? If you were voting for the Pope how would you vote? Which Pope makes money and which Pope steals money? Which Pope hates Catholics? Which Pope would not name the religion that beheads people as a sporting event? Which Pope would herd young boy’s into your daughter’s bathroom? Which Pope would take non-Catholic donations from foreign governments? Which Pope would dare say Merry Christmas? Which Pope would allow gays and lesbians to graze in their congregations and not say anything was wrong? Which Pope would sanction their marriages with state approval? Which Pope would sacrifice children on the altar of choice? We hope these questions will promote healthy choices for our next leader! Thankyou. James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Where Two Roads Meet!
One road is a pathway of promoting the gay lifestyle and state sanctioned gay marriage. The other road is where there is a denial and effort to downplay any connection between Islam and the reason American’s are dying from terrorist attacks. This has resulted in an Islamic gunslinger visiting a gay bar! Islamic gunslingers attending a Christmas party and Islamic Bombers participating in the Boston Marathon! Obama has promoted his agenda and American’s are paying a price! Who is next? Obama’s solution is to disarm law abiding citizens! As these Islamic immigrant plants grow and strengthen and plan their attacks you who care about America must be vigilant and protect your family! Our United States Constitution gives you the opportunity to bear arms and defend your family! Do not despise the framework our Founding Father’s established to defend America and your family! Thankyou. James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Christmas Eve Withdrawal!
I went over to our bank to get some cash. In the outer lobby there is an enclosure with an ATM machine. Then the inner glass door leads to the main lobby. In the outer lobby a young man was standing there as i walked in. I was wearing my camouflaged military fatigue shirt under my jacket. This young man asked me if I were a veteran? I replied yes and then he saluted me! I saluted him back. He thanked me for serving and then I gave him a Gospel tract. He then told me he was a Pastor. He also told me he was running for President of the United States! He told me he had until March 31st to file. Then I began to wonder if he was smoking something? A lot of that goes on out here in Colorado! Then he pointed to the Walmart across the street from the bank and told me after I leave the bank to go over there and see the manager and wait in his office and I will bring a U.S. Flag in and present it to you! I thanked him and went into the main lobby to get some cash. The young lady behind the counter smiled and I wished her a Merry Christmas! I mentioned to her that sometimes we live in a strange world? She told me you mean the guy running for President? He came in here and told everyone of us he is running! I told her this is as good a place as any to begin announcing! I told her she could be his running mate! As I was leaving the bank I saw our President walking across the Walmart parking lot towards the front door! My next stop was to be Walmart but I changed my mind and went home! Christmas always brings out the best in us! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Christmas and Purpose!
To be a Christian means you become a part of the most significant story the World has ever heard! You don’t become part of that without an ongoing questioning of what it means to become part of that! Theologian Stanley Hauerwas
The Word Made Flesh! John 1:14
We can all understand the word flesh as we share this as mortals! However, do we understand the word, “Word?” I went back to the Old testament where there are 9 Hebrew root words and to the New Testament where there are 6 Greek words. So when you combine this package of words this is what you get when God was incarnated in the flesh! God’s decree’s, purposes, promises, provision, conditions, utterances, pouring out, assurances, rational, logic, and faculty are released into the earth! One of the most interesting words I found in the Old Testament that means, “A pasture from the arrangement of it’s flock, fold or manner.” God’s sheep are out of order and He came to arrange them in order to protect them from danger! The lonely shepherd’s on the hill near Bethlehem were the real sheep God was interested in! You and I are sheep He came for as we have a bad habit of getting lost! Merry Christmas!

The Christmas Party is Growing!
Christianity is the fastest growing religion in the world! Islam is second. It’s spreading in Asia, Africa and South America. So the world is in a kind of religious revival, and the atheists are totally flummoxed. They thought they were winning, and now they see the are not. Dinesh D’Souza. Comment: The world is a stage for the battle between good and evil. God has only one tactic to overcome evil. Love! Love not the evil but overcome evil with good! Remember we were all on the wrong side of eternity at one time! It is righteous to punish evil! Christ took our judgment upon Himself! If you really love the Truth then point people to Christ! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
May The Force Be With You?
This was Hillary’s closing statement in the democratic debate last night? I expected the politically correct Happy Holidays but that did not happen either? What force is she talking about? The Air Force? The forced conversions to Islam? Is she talking about abortions? The forced removal of Crosses and Christmas Tree’s across America? The taking away of our guns? Is she talking about Herod who used force to murder all the children of Bethlehem two years and younger to kill baby Jesus? Is she talking about force used to murder 14 American’s at a Christmas party? She did not use any force to rescue our 4 American’s in Libya? Let me share a commentary on Star Wars. “The Force was a dark side, which feeds off emotions, such as anger, jealousy, fear, lust and hate. The Sith embraces the dark side in order to seize power.” Does God force Himself down our throats? Absolutely not! God is love! For God so loved the world that He gave us His only Son! When I was on my death bed as a young man in 1973 I knew it was my last night on earth! Believe me when it comes you will know! I called out to a name I really did not know? I had been taught in my childhood that his name was above every name! Jesus came into my hospital room that night and said just 3 words! God loves you! I walked out of that hospital room the next morning with a mission to tell the world about Jesus! Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump cannot save you! They cannot even save themselves! No man can save you! The Force cannot save you! Jesus can and will if you call on His name! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
