Aspects of Christmas! Two.

Gluttony?

Most people today are overweight, fast-food has changed the world and so has cheap food in the super markets where most of the poor head for?

But we are going to talk about greed in relation to gluttony and food, and here we will deal with the rich and their plenty!

Greed is an illness in its own right of the mind and eventually of the stomach the results of being fat, but this is not always the case?

Diabetes and several other illness that lead to loss of functions result from eating too much of the wrong foods! 

Greece is one of the biggest killers, all those fries and burgers, fried chicken and lack of walking with jacket potatoes, waffles, cakes, chocolate bars and so it goes on!

Christians are not exempt from the lure and temptations of nice food!

Self control is the answer to most of the problems that lead us astray at Christmas?

Genesis 29:22,  Psalm 36:8,  Ecclesiastes 10:16,  Jeremiah 51:39,  Matthew/Levi 22:2,  4,  8,   Mark 7:22,  1 Corinthians 9:25,  Galatians 5:23,   1 Peter 1:6.

New year 2018.

Seasons Greetings and A Happy new Year!

This is another New year and the time when our emergency rooms and hospitals will be filled with people facing terminal illnesses, following the excess of the season in food and drink? 

It is also the time of the year when people will realise that they are in debt, from wanting to buy everyone something for Christmas? Many people are not serious today about being in debt, they think it can all be swept away, but in latter life they may find the essentials that they need will be refused because of their pasts!

This is the same with knowing or not knowing God?

Rational thinking in the Church is blocking off the powerful message of Jesus Virgin birth and the importance to us of who He is!

Isaiah 7:14,  Matthew 6;12,  Luke 1:27,  Romans 3;23, 6;23,  Ephesians 5:8,  2 Peter 2:17.
