Elon Musk says Twitter suspended 800,000 accounts during the month of February alone that distributed child sexual exploitation (CSE) material, and the company has reduced successful searches for such material by 99% since December. “What I’ve been told is that we’ve done more to eliminate [CSE] material, than on Twitter in the last four months than what has been done in the last 10 years. It will continue to be our #1 priority, a 100 fold reduction in CSE search patterns is pretty gigantic” (X22 Reports hereafter not cited, Ep. 3015b, March 8, 2023, 7:33). But this is cleaning up Twitter only. Those removed from Twitter likely just take their pedo recruiting to the other social media platforms. And these sites have voiced no concern about adults jolificating on the images of our little ones.
God placed a natural protective barrier between adults and children. The hideous sexual appetite to feast upon the most innocent and vulnerable portion of our society has to be self developed and nurtured by these platforms leading to the development of unnatural, harmful, and illegal behaviors. But this practice is not new Only the most naive have not heard something of those acting out the practice. Arrests for such are unfortunately becoming too common. The issue of child sex slavey found its way to the U.S. Senate floor last week.
In a Senate Hearing Senator Ted Cruz showed Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, an enlarged photo of a variety of colored wrist bands and ask if he knew what these were. Mayorkas answered that he did not. Senator Cruz, [voice rising], “You don’t know what they are?” Mr Secretary, “I have been to the southern border and along the southern border, you see thousands of these wrist bands [voice still rising] because the illegal immigrants wear them. Every color corresponds to how many thousands of dollars they owe the cartels. [Louder still] You have turned these cartels into multi-billion dollar criminal organizations and these [holding up a wrist band] are modern day leg irons because these are children being sold into sex slavery. You don’t even know what they are!! That is astonishing” (Ep. 3032b, March 29, 2023, 7:30).
Mr.Secretary, “Your behavior is disgraceful. The children assaulted, the children raped, they are at your feet and if you had integrity you would resign…. Mr. Secretary,… “you are willing to let children be raped to follow political orders. This is a crisis, its a disgrace and you won’t even admit this human tragedy is a crisis.” (Ibid.)
Its bad enough to acknowledge child sex slavery coming across the border with despicable human sex traffickers and their cartels; its quite another to acknowledge that it is already here with Jeffry Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Washington’s political elite; and infinitely more difficult to accept that the infection now permeates Hollywood. Consider the horrific possibility that the practice has become so acceptable that even more children are required to feed it.
Enter Hollywood insider John Paul Rice producer of the popular Hunger Games movies who, at the risk of his film-making career being destroyed, is willing to say the quiet part out loud (Speaks out about Hollywood, TikTok/Twitter). He asked several of his Hollywood female friend stars, “Well, what about the children? Their response was we know, we know, but they were silent.” Everyone was silent because their careers would be destroyed if they weren’t. “This is a child abuse system that we have been living in for a very long time. It’s been allowed to go on.
“I will not be silent about this because it affects every single one of us. The people on television, who smile at you, who tell you stories, who give you news are the ones who hide all of this from us. They are not talking about the real issues. They are distracting you with division issues. This is a unification issue….it doesn’t matter what side of the political equation you’re on. This is a child issue. This is a human issue.”
“We are faced with a crisis of consciousness among the leadership of our banking institutions, of our media corporations, of the Hollywood entertainment industry, of the music industry…. They raped and tortured these girls against their own free will, no matter whether they paid them or not.” Citing The New Yorker but without date or page, he quoted Ghislaine Maxwell as “having said about the girls that she picked up in West Palm Beach’s trailer parks, when asked, ‘What about the young girls? What are we going to do to them? What’s going to happen to them?’” Her answer, “They are trash! They are nothing!” (Hollywood Insider, John Paul Rice, Speaks out).
A casual look at the Internet reveals a serious problem with pedophilia in the United States (Wikipedia, “Sex trafficking in the United States”). “Approximately 500,000 child predators are online every day” releasing their fantasies (Screen & Reveal, Pedophile Statistics and FAQs, Last updated February 20, 2023, Lindsay Muntingh). Director Rice too has expressed his concerns through a film he produced called “A Child’s Voice, depicting a child trafficking ring.”
Donald Trump acknowledged that children were being sold for sex in the U.S.and implemented Executive Order 13903 on January 31, 2020, “Combating Human Trafficking and Online Child Exploitation in the United States” to combat it and was “the 1st president to open a White House office to form coalitions with law enforcement to save America’s children.” Biden rescinded the executive order on his 2nd day in office (Ep. 3008b, Wyatt, Feb. 27, 2023, 13:23). He may have had reason to avoid this subject. Pages 67-68 of his daughter Ashley’s diary reads, “I’m so afraid of him coming in the shower with me that I’ve waited until late at night to take a shower” (Ep. 3028b, March 24, 2023, 11:21).
Let me end with the words of my favorite theologian, Russel M. Nelson, “Abuse constitutes the influence of the adversary. It is a grievous sin…. I affirm the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ… Let me be perfectly clear: any kind of abuse of women, children, or anyone is an abomination to the Lord. He grieves…whenever anyone is harmed. He mourns…for each person who has fallen victim to abuse of any kind. Those who perpetrate these hideous acts are not only accountable to the laws of man but will also face the wrath of Almighty God” (General Conference Oct. 2022).

According to Conservative Treehouse in a recent breakthrough article titled “The Parliamentary Motive Behind the J6 Fedsurrection,” March 12, 2023, Nancy Pelosi played the dominant role in stopping the January 6, 2021 Electoral College Count. The federal government had motive in creating the J6 crisis which permitted her “to trigger an emergency session and avoid the 2020 election certification challenges,” thus seating Joe Biden without thorough constitutional review.
On the morning of January 6, 2021 three constitutional processes remained, all easily would have solved the election question between Donald Trump and Joe Biden; one involving the President of the Senate, Mike Pence, one the House of Representatives with Nancy Pelosi, and a third involving both houses using the Electoral Count Act of 1887. All were rejected by Pelosi.
The first, and preferred, has Pence on center stage. “The Constitution reads, “The President of the Senate [at the time Vice President Pence] shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted” (Amendment 12). All Pence had to do when a state submitted two slates was to say. “Arizona (et al.) has submitted two slates one from its state legislature, the other forwarded by the state secretary of state signed by the governor. Since I can not count both, and only the state legislature is recognized by the Constitution as the proper submitter (Article II, Section I, Clause 2), I will count only it.” Since five of the six contested state legislatures were Republican, Trump would have been reelected.
The second constitutional remedy would have involved Pelosi as then Speaker of the House. The Constitution reads. “if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers …the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; … and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice” (Amendment 12, U.S. Constitution). In the House each state has only one vote for president, regardless of its size, California and Wyoming each have but one vote. Republicans controlled 28 state delegations, two more than the majority needed to reelect Trump.
Instead, of this constitutional clarity both houses chose a process not in the Constitution itself. The confusing 133 year old Electoral Count Act of 1887, not constitutionally tested, which required both houses giving them an objection process. This required a member of the Senate and of the House each to object to any state’s vote, thereafter to dismiss the two houses to their separate quarters for two hours of discussion rendering a decision before reuniting.
But Pelosi wanted none of these constitutional remedies because all, she perceived, gave Trump a second term. Enter a previously contrived government January 6 crisis which permitted her to trigger an emergency session, deny Pence his constitutional role as President of the Senate to count the votes, avoid the 2020 election certification challenges, bypass the above required parts of the Constitution and the Electoral Count Act of 1887, and reconvene that evening making Biden President—all obstruction to that end just hours before treasonably removed.
A government engineered January 6 is the only way this could happen. To delay “the certification of state electoral votes requires a crisis. A crisis that creates an ‘emergency’ …An ‘emergency’ that invokes special house rules.” Special house rules, that allow no “motion challenges to halt the certification” and avoids a vote to “look into voting irregularities and fraud.” Nothing was required of the “house to pause the certification and then vote to determine whether the motions of suspend could move forward.” Nothing to prevent their certifying the fraud “with no detractors on record.” Perfect!! And the MAGA protestors would be blamed.
The Supreme Court too was removed as a potential threat to their plan. “This effectively gives no standing for a SCOTUS ruling appeal! Understand this. If those two motions, even just one had successfully been voted EVEN IF THE MOTIONS were DENIED IN VOTE, this gives those who presented them with STANDING FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL LEGAL ARGUMENT BEFORE SCOTUS.”
The author of the “Parliamentary Motive Behind the J6 Fedsurrection,” Regitiger, continues, “Just moments, literally 3 minutes before two representatives issued a vote for motions to suspend the certification, the House members were ‘informed’ by capitol police and other ‘agents’ that a protest was about to breach the chambers.” Pelosi “UNILATERALLY UNDER EMERGENCY RULES, suspended the business of the congress.” Moments later “key people: Pence, Pelosi, Schumer, McConnell can be seen being walked out and escorted from the chamber. This effectively halted the Entire Chamber Process.”
When reconvened later that evening Speaker Pelosi “initiated the NEW sessions under special emergency rules. These rules abandon and make it clear that the ONLY purpose of the new session was to EXPEDITE the certification and dismiss all prior regular session procedural rules.” Also, “members were allowed to ‘vote’ in proxy, remotely, not being present.” Also, “clearly, it was at THIS NEW SESSION that VP Pence, President of Congress, would also have no ability to even consider pausing the electoral certification, because there were no motions of disagreements on the matter. The motions were never allowed to be floored in the re-convened house rules later that evening.”
BINGO a successful overthrow of the United States government via an election and Nancy Pelosi. Can we please subpoena her emails?

Sunday Morning with Maria Bartiromo, January 22, published that the Penn Biden Center classified documents (the first of four classified Biden document finds) had been relocated three times—each transfer a likely crime. At each point top secret documents should have been stopped and disclosed but weren’t for two reasons, none of the places where they were temporally stored had authority to store them and Biden as vice president had no authority to have them or to declassify them—only Barack Obama when he was the sitting president.
Obama could now say he declassified them and the problem for Biden would go away—but he has not. His failure to do so strongly suggests that the Deep State intends to throw Biden under the bus with all his baggage. Why? Biden is unelectable in 2024 in an honest election. All Deep State crimes: COVID-19 constitutional violations, foreign policy disasters, the border fiasco, food and fuel shortages, near runaway national debt and inflation, influence peddling with China through his son Hunter and brother James, likely even treason charges, and finally the pending election coup with the FBI to overthrow the government—ALL, THEY THINK, can be buried with Biden. Most of these have been documented in previous LibertyUnderFire.com columns. Democrats would get a new face and two years to distance themselves from Biden.
But removing Biden after January 20, 2023 rather than before is intentional, Kamala Harris could potentially constitutionally serve 10 years as president, the remainder of the Biden term and two terms of her own. Under Amendment 22 Section I “no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the Office of the President more than once.” If the 22nd Amendment had been used prior to January 20, 2023 she would be limited to only one term in office after serving the remainder of the Biden term—a total of six.
What about Biden? The Deep State wants a “soft landing” for him. Impeachment would harm the party and could take months of unwanted exposure on the items noted above leaving the party deeply damaged. They will oppose impeachment. They want him removed by the Amendment 25 which allows “The Vice President and a majority of … the principal officers of the executive departments [the cabinet—all democrats, to] transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate [Patty Murray]and the Speaker of the House of Representatives [Kevin McCarthy] their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the power and duties of his office.” Republicans will not object. Removal accomplished, “the Vice President [Kamala Harris] shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.”
In the meantime the Deep State media will no longer censor the evidence that Biden is unfit for office but instead emphasize it themselves and they will convince Biden that otherwise he will likely serve time or, if convicted of treason, much worse. Biden may himself participate in proving himself unfit as this will be the easiest way out for him. The Amendment allows him, should he once again feels fit to serve, to “transmit his written declaration that no inability exists,” to the pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives. If these disagree still, “Congress shall decide the issue…by two-thirds vote of both houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.” Biden will not challenge it.
This has never happened before but if the secret combinations have already decided this is the preferred course, it could theoretically happen very fast. The only reason for pause is to assemble video of real life moments proving the same to be played simultaneously by their media choir accompanied by, “We really did not want to do this but as you can see it was necessary,” type messages. Then wait for the right moment in the days or weeks ahead.
A Biden removal leaves a vacancy as vice president which Harris will fill using Amendment 25, Section 2 as President Richard Nixon did after Spiral Agnew (the then serving vice president in 1973) resigned due to income tax corruption. He nominated Gerald Ford and presented him to both houses of Congress for a majority vote. Nixon then resigned also making Ford the luckiest politician in U.S. history serving the two highest offices in the land without having been elected by the people, or the Electoral College, to either. Harris likely has already chosen her V.P.
NOT SO FAST!! The Biden baggage is also the Harris and Democrat Party baggage. Virtually every issue noted above was supported and defended by the Democrat Party. Had Harris been the president and Biden the vice president, it would have been the same.
Almost all documentation since the 2020 Presidential election show beyond any reasonable doubt that Biden WAS NOT the actual winner in the 2020 Presidential election. Evidence that it was instead a coup to overthrow the government of the United States is very powerful and remains without consequence to those involved. Hundreds of eyewitnesses under penalty of perjury, “2,000 Mules,” The Tiger Project, Dominion voting machines and Konnech voting management machines, FBI whistle blowers, Twitter Files admissions, all have weighed in that the election was stolen November 3 and that January 6 was the coverup.
The House of Representatives will have hearings on this for the next many months. If a coup indeed, Harris will have no more authority than Biden did to be president nor will her selection as the new Vice President, and will be removed from power by state decertification or devolution and Donald Trump, the actual 2020 victor, will be restored to power. If China participated in the coup, as data suggests, it amplifies treason charges. This will be an interesting year.

They thought Twitter secure, a place where government (Department of Homeland Security DHS, and FBI agents in particular), Big Tech, Big Media, Democrats, and the Deep State, could speak freely to coconspirators to overthrow the government of the United States, more specifically its popularly serving and elected president. They succeeded in removing Donald J. Trump from the White House—a coup. America would never know and all future elections could be rigged in the same manner preserving Deep State power. Twitter conversations would never be revealed. This is what the Twitter Files, from which this column is taken, document.
One miracle of 2022 was Twitter being bought by an OUTSIDER Elon Musk for $44 billion—an offer too big to turn down. A second miracle, Musk, not a coconspirator, was strong enough to reveal to the world the secret combinations coup plans he found in Twitter. He did not have to do so. There was no profit for him in revealing these tweets. This made him the number one enemy of the Deep State (Combination). The coup had already been accomplished November 3, 2020. He could have remained silent with it and remained rich and favored by them forever.
The Combination (Deep State) upon realizing Musk was opposed to what they did and willing to reveal it, went into overdrive to first discredit him, then next to remove his advertising base for Twitter which would bankrupt him. He still chose to reveal their communications to each other facilitating the overthrow and making himself physically a target.
What follows are the Twitter Files documenting Twitter’s 2020 election rigging. These are best assembled by KanekoatheGreat of Kanekoa News. He synthesized their election interference in 34 Twitter tweets. Column space limitation allows only highlights of his synthesis which follows.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) housed a censorship branch, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), geared to identify what they considered mis or disinformation in the public sector defined as any information outside the narrative of the federal government. Lacking constitutional authority to censor the American public themselves, CISA (the government) was more than happy to team-up with like-minded private sector organizations notably the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) and social media outlets, notably Twitter, to outsource actual censorship—the dirty work—for them.
The EIP formed in 2020 “comprised of four organizations: Stanford Internet Observatory, the University of Washington’s Center for an Informed Public, Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab, and Graphika.” Together the secret combination of government and private sector Deep Staters had about “120 analysts to censor millions of social media posts on elections…. [working] 20 hours a day,[enabling their] forwarding tickets of misinformation to be censored” to the obliging social media platforms. These “monitored 15 tech platforms •22 Million tweets [were] labeled ‘misinformation’ •Entire ‘misinformation narratives’ [were] targeted for platform-wide throttling.” Every repeat spreader of misinformation, the EIP acknowledged, “was on the right side of the political spectrum.” They also “flagged popular populist-right YouTube channels, including: @scrowder, @BlazeTV, @JudicialWatch, and even the @GOP War Room, as ‘mis- and disinformation’ spreaders,”—basically the Republican Party. These were/are considered domestic terrorists by the Deep State Joe Biden government. This gave them the win.
Enter Mike Benz, the Foundation for Freedom online @FFO_Freedom. founder who “comprehensively details the US government’s role in outsourcing censorship to this public-private network,” the EIP. Benz “extensively documented the individuals involved and the flow of taxpayer funds ($40M) to domestic censorship” (@MikeBenzCyber). The DHS quietly corrupted CISA’s mission when it designated domestic disinformation as cyber attacks on “critical cognitive infrastructure” (information outside the government narrative). As noted, the “US government cannot sandblast millions of voters off the Internet because of their speech about elections.” But the EIP, their private sector partners, could and did it for them.
So “who are these unelected bureaucrats who get to play judge, jury, and executioner and control the thoughts of millions of Americans?” Two main names are identified, business partners Chris Krebs and Alex Stamos. Stamos was “founder of the EIP censorship network,” a CFR member and “the director of the of the Stanford Internet Observatory,” one of the four organizations making up the EIP and today leads the organization. Others standouts include: Kate Starbird, Graham Brookie, and Ben Nimmo. Details of their collusion in the censorship of anything right on the political spectrum by Twitter is given in the Twitter thread presented.
Essentially the EIP rigged the 2020 presidential election and 2022 mid-terms in three decisive ways: The “EIP defined ‘delegitimization’ as speech that ‘casts doubt’ on the election process or outcome. This accounted for 72% of the censorship tickets and targeted over 99% of the post throttled by narrative, focusing on voting machines and vote-by-mail (@MikeBenzCyber).” The EIP allowed the left “to discuss the vulnerabilities of voting machines after the 2016 election” while banning the right from “discussing those very same vulnerabilities after the 2020 election.” Finally, the EIP “collaborated with its Big Tech partners to systematically censor any delegitimization of vote-by-mail as disinformation. In effect, they sided with the left and pre-banned criticism of vote-by-mail at the narrative level five months BEFOREthe 2020 election.”
The Deep State used the COVID-19 “crisis to push for nationwide mail-in voting, which increased the number of ballots cast by mail from 28.8 million in 2016 to 66.4 million in 2020, a massive 131% increase.” Thus the “percentage of Democrats voting by mail rose from 26% in 2016 to 60% in 2020, while Republican voters only saw a rise from 21% to 32%. In short, the extra 37 million ballots cast by mail during the 2020 election swung the election to the EIP’s preferred candidate” Joe Biden. Thus Twitter confesses rigging 2020 election.

Swearing allegiance to the Constitution is required of every office holder in our government and every person who serves in the armed forces. The Constitution reads, “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic….” Should there be a penalty for violating this oath? That is now before the Supreme Court January 6, 2023. Did legislators knowingly violate the Constitution by not waiting the 10 day period to assess the evidence of fraud and alleged foreign interference in the election when they knew evidence to that end existed in the 2020 Presidential Election. Some 387 members of Congress voted against an investigation, thus thwarting an investigation.
In November 2020 alone LibertyUnderFire.com published three columns documenting that concern: “Sudden Stop in Vote Reporting Suggests Election Fraud,” “Vice President Biden, Please Hold Back for the Sake of Ballot Integrity,” and “Dominion Software Switched Millions of Trump Votes to Biden.” Virtually all investigations since confirm that election fraud existed.
The Brunson v. Alma S. Adams; et al case “alleges that Congress failed in its Constitutional duty by ignoring protection of critical infrastructure (election systems) during a National Emergency.”The Brunson brothers, who initiated this suit, asked, “How do you support, and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign , and domestic? Answer: You investigate. If there are claims that there is a threat, even if you don’t believe there is a threat, you investigate. How else can you determine if there is a threat unless you investigate? You can’t. Were there claims of a threat to the Constitution? Yes. Where did these serious claims come from? 100 members of Congress. What was the threat? That there were enemies of the Constitution who successfully rigged the 2020 election. Is this lawsuit about a rigged election? No, it’s about the members of Congress who voted AGAINST the investigation thereby thwarting the investigation. Was this a clear violation of their oath? YES” (All quotes are from filing documents).
The events leading to SCOTUS accepting the case follow. Loy Brunson files the brothers complaint under his name in the Utah Federal Court, March 23, 2021. On March 31, 2021 the 1st Amended Complaint was processed by the clerk of the Court and served by U.S. Marshalls on 85 defendants, including Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters before being stopped by the Court, claiming it was a “clerical error by the Deputy Clerk”. So the Deep State was very aware of mounting opposition to the denial of requested 10 day review before the electoral count.
From this point forward they faced a wall of obstruction: amended complaints, motions to reconsider, even a Writ of Mandamus to the Court of Appeals (10th Circuit) to compel the Federal Court for movement, then a lawsuit against the two Federal Courts, again for action—all to no avail. They were thwarted at every turn and always with the same explanation “the Federal Court will eventually get to it when they can.” After more than a year of the same the court finally “issues the summons for the 388 defendants.” Everyone voting against the measure requiring 10 days of review before the electoral vote received a summons, plus the president. Defendants had 60 days to answer the complaint.
Then the U.S. Attorneys suddenly intervened shielding members of Congress from being personally responsible for their vote by filing a notice of appearance in behalf of all the defendants, making THEMSELVES “the official attorneys on record,” instead of the legislators. The brothers had not sued the U.S. Government, only certain members of Congress who had violated their oath to protect and preserve the Constitution by not adhering to it. They promptly issued a motion to dismiss Loy’s lawsuit “on the grounds that defendants are protected under Title 28 which gives defendants Sovereign Immunity from any lawsuits relating to actions of treason while serving in the capacity of their office.” What!!! Members of Congress have immunity from treason? Our Founders would have never supported this. On July 6, 2022, the brothers file an opposition to the Attorneys’ attempt to dismiss the lawsuit. The defense offered only stonewalling silence thereafter.
Fortunately almost a year before, June 21, 2021, realizing that they could double their chances of getting to the Supreme Court with a second identical suit but under the name of another brother, this time Raland, the brothers sued members of Congress again. But once again the U.S. Attorneys, “acting in behalf of the United States (not the defendants)” ran interference and filed a motion to dismiss Raland’s lawsuit using the same reason as cited for the Loy suit.
The Brothers knew their only hope was to bypass the biased circuit court and it came to them that they could use Rule 11 (National Emergency) to vault over the obstructionist 10th Circuit of Appeals and “go straight to the Supreme Court.” If a fraudulent election with foreign interference was not a national emergency what was? On September 23, 2022 their petition for a Writ of Certiorari (national emergency) was received by SCOTUS. A week later “the Clerk of the SCOTUS calls Raland requesting a revision of the Petition that would include a motion to dismiss and motion to waiver. Having these included in the paper work it is believed bolsters the evidence that defenders had every chance to oppose. The brothers felt pressured to get it in ASAP, they did and their case was docketed October 24, 2022.
The clerk notified the brothers that “they have everything they need.” The U.S. Attorneys had until November 23 “to respond showing why the Supreme Court of the United States should not move on this case.” They provided no defense. Nor did they ask for a motion to oppose, an extension, or a continuance. Nothing! Miraculously all opposition melted away (“Brunson and the Supreme Court Case that Would Fix 2020 and Bring Treason Charges for 388 Officials,” The Pete Santillo Show, Interview with Loy Brunson, Nov. 30, 2022).
A month later “Elizabeth B. Prelogar, the Solicitor General of United States, the official attorney on record for the defendants, and in behalf of the 388 defendants, waived their right to respond to this lawsuit, thus allowing the SCOTUS to move forward!” And it did setting the conference date for January 6, 2023. It requires four votes to have a hearing and five to remove from office all defendants, making this case potentially the most consequential in U.S. history.

It was in the eighth grade when I moved from Santa to Christ as my main focus of Christmas. I remember well the star saturated night when the heavens overwhelmingly testified to me of God’s awesomeness. I could almost feel the words of my favorite Christmas carol “Silent Night” go deep into my soul as never before as I both sang and pondered its words. Perhaps it was the scenic nativity-like setting where I found myself hand milking my neighbors cow while he was away for a week. The three-sided shed allowed my gaze into the dark but star-lite, cold, cloudless night enabling my peak into the heavens. It was Christmas Eve and I was alone with Christ. It could not have been more impressive and it was the same every night for the week of Christmas.
I never had that experience again in the same way but I always had an intense love for the carols that spoke of His birth: “Oh Holy Night,” “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” “Joy to the World,” and “The First Noel.” They were just different somehow—far more powerful than regular jingles. My background was not particularly unique for the time period. Santa was there for the children but he never competed with Christ for the spotlight. The transition to Christ just followed with maturity. Years followed years, I had children and now they have children and, because of home and church the songs have passed on as they had for hundreds of years before. But, unfortunately, this does not happen for everyone.
Today the earth is still bathed with happy songs but radio stations ever more infrequently play the ageless Christ-birth songs: “Far, Far Away on Judea’s Plains,” “With Wondering Awe,” “Away in the Manger,” and “O Little Town of Bethlehem.” Outdoor nativity decorations are virtually non-existent unless you make your own. Even indoor nativity scenes are hard to find. Stores have almost nothing to purchase that speaks to this Holy Night. We have removed Christ—the source of all light and truth—from Christmas.
There are no television shows or movies that address Nativity themes but Hollywood never really did much in this direction anyway, the “Waltons” or “Little House on the Prairie” were the exceptions, but then again that was in an earlier generation. There is no Nativity symbolism on television programs today. Everything is “feel good,” like, I found a new love on Christmas, or Santa related. Even the Grinch is given more attention than Christ.
Almost all references to Christ have been removed from our schools and teachers dare not encourage the singing of traditional Christmas carols, although any tune without the mention of Jesus Christ is encouraged. A culture that did not know the words of “Silent Night,” “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear,” “Joy to the World,” or, “Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful” would have been unheard of in my day, but is the norm today. Only the churches and homes give any exposure to Christ in Christmas, as was so for me and generations before me. Sadly some churches may give more emphasis to Santa than Christ. Neither churches nor communities have Nativity plays as once they did.
The reason for the season is Jesus Christ, that is why the event is called Christ-mas but few homes show any evidence that He is center placed. Someone once said that we are all “Inn Keepers” to the extent we allow Christ in our lives. Unfortunately there is no room in the Inn for too many. Most Americans consider themselves unchurched (a term for those without religious affiliation) so the incentive to read, tell or act out the “Old Story” is mostly gone. Seemingly each generation transfers to the next less of Christ in Christmas.
Today some few want to turn Christmas into Winter Break and Easter into Spring Break, undermining both. It is not the break they object to but the name. No one seems to object to the Jewish holiday Hanukkah, or any other holiday—only the holiday with Christ’s name associated with it. We were founded as a Christian nation; so what if some object, everyone gets the same break!! The undermining of Christ’s special day is endless and seemingly intentional. The result is an increasingly darkened world ethically and morally.
Why not change to a traditional Christmas this Christmas season, like generations before. In your home play mostly the traditional Christ centered songs. Instead of a Santa or reindeer in your front yard, make a nativity scene. Take yourself or family to a church service. Find a service that will speak of that special night and rehearse the events of that most special day. Go caroling to shut-ins or to a nursing home. Read to your friends and loved ones on Christmas Eve the story of the birth of Jesus Christ—the one believed by all Christians to be the Savior of the world. If you have children let them act it out. Give Christ a few hours of your month. Greet everyone with Merry Christmas. You will never be sorry that you took this challenge. Then you will not be an accomplice in removing Christ from Christmas and will join those who wonder why anyone would want to.
Most will never have a special moment in a shed milking a cow on a cold starry night as I did as a 14 year-old boy but this same special feeling will find a way of filling every soul that will allow “room in the Inn” for Christ, just as intensely in its own way. Those with a relationship with Jesus Christ recognize it more easily than those without. The days before Christmas are the most special days in the year as though the planet had been dusted by angels. It has. There is noticeably more giving, sharing, kindness and sacrifice for others. Thoughts of others and gratitude fill the air. Non-Christians too benefit from these attributes.
Merry Christmas to my appreciative readers around the world.
