“Does God Bless Our Christmas Celebrations?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:
Ninety percent of Americans celebrate Christmas, but only a slight majority observe it as a religious holiday. Many who keep Christmas do not even believe in the virgin birth. In many countries, a demonic creature is celebrated around this time of year, which has become popular in the USA as well. Did you know that Christmas was not an official holiday in the USA until after the Civil War? Why is there so much anxiety, grief, depression, increase of heart attacks and alcoholism associated with Christmas? And why do we, as a Christian nation, willfully lie to our children about it and become upset with those who tell the Truth?

Jesus spoke prophetically about the times of the Gentiles being fulfilled. Who are the Gentiles He is referring to, and what does the biblical designation of people in this way actually mean?
