Is It Possible to Retoon The Nativity?

On my previous blog The Nativity, I received an e-mail inviting me to see the video "Retooning The Nativity". I like the comment I received from one blogger and would like to share it with you.

Bible Devotions said:

..."Indeed, it is important for us to see the ‘big picture’ here, which is this: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8 NKJV) Of course, this point was made in the video when it was said, “Even when all the man-made traditions are stripped away the eternal truths still remain”. And I fully agree with this! But are the man-made traditions being removed or is the truth being compromised to keep them intact?.....

"... even though it is true that we need to see Jesus Christ as the ‘big picture’, we also need to make sure we pay attention to the details that God has given to us through the pen of inspiration. Thus we will see the ‘big picture’ clearly enough to know that it is Him who is in it and not some impostor or counterfeit of God."

It is very important in our lives to be able to discern what is the truth and what is false in God's Word. The Bible was given to us by God because it is His "Love Letter" to us. He wants us to get to know Him better to be able to trust Him more knowing that He can lead us in a right and better path in our lives.

Why not open up God's Love Letter (The Bible) today and always, and ask for the Holy Spirit to help us understand His word for us. So that we will not conform to what others say or believe but by what God's word says and stand firm on the truth.
