Three Wise Men and Christmas gifts

Peace.

Over the past many years I've heard so many preachers teaching the Christmas story about the so-called three wise men that followed a star to baby Yahshua and brought him three gifts. I've seen the nativity sets in many churches that display the so-called three wise men as if those Pagan Magi were good people.

Nowhere in the Bible does it mention three wise men, and there is much more to this Christmas story that's no being preached in most churches.

This three wise men story is thee religious foundation of Christmas gifts giving.

It was the Roman Catholic Church that first celebrated Christ-Mass on Dec 25th as shown in History and confirmed in the Roman Calendar of Filocalus year 354.

The Pagan Romans prevoiusly celebrated Dec 25th as the Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, "the birthday of the sun" also called the Winter Solstice or Yule, and long before Christ was even born, and way after he was crucified. It was the sun worshipping and gifts celebration date of their false gods & goddesses that were said to be born on Dec 25th including Ishtar. Ishtar in English is Easter.

But when we look in Matthew 2 scriptures carefully, we see there are not three. The Magi are "pagan priest astrologers" that came from Persia, and it's religion is called Zoroastrianism in Tehran, Iran.

The Bible shows they followed a star to "Jerusalem" and they went directly to evil to King Herod. Jerusalem is very far from Bethlehem. Then they told Herod that a new King of the Jews had been born and they wanted to know where he was.

King Herod didn't know anything about that, and he was very troubled of that news because he wanted to be the only King. So Herod gathered together the Judisim Chief Rabbis and asked them where the new born King was born. Those Rabbis told Herod that the baby King was born in Bethlehem, so Herod then knew what area.

Then Herod told those pagan Magi to go into Bethlehem and find the new born King, and come back and let Herod know exactly where, and so he can go honor him.

Frankincense and Myrrh grows in Iran and other parts of Persia, but the third gift "Gold" likely came from Herod, as Gold is a gift often given by a King and to another King, and Herod had lot's of gold. I can't imagen Herod "a king" would send them there without a gift from himself.

Gold is a gift for a king; frankincense is a gift for a high priest, and for healing usages, and myrrh is not even a gift, it's a burial ointment for one who will soon die, or for someone who already died.

Right after those two Magi presented those three gifts, the spirit of Yahweh gave them a dream to immediately leave and go back to the Persia where they came from, and not to return to Herod, and the spirit of Yahweh also gave Joseph a dream telling him to take Mariam and baby Yahshua and flee into Egypt because Herod is seeking to kill him.

So at night those two pagan Magi left to go back to Persia, and Joseph & Mariam with Baby Yahshua left to travel to Egypt "very very far from Bethlehem".

Then afterwards Herod sent out his solders to murder all baby boys "2 years and younger" in Bethlehem and it's surrounding borders. The age 2 and under was based rom what those Magi had told Herod at the time they visted him in Jerusalem.

It took those Magi along time to travel to Jerusalem from Iran, then to Bethlehem from Jerusalem. So it seems Yahshua wasn't exactly a new born baby when they arrived in Bethlehem, or Herod would have killed all new born baby boys instead.

I see several major problems with all of this >>>

Those two Magi were not being guided by Yahweh to go directly to Jerusalem and tell Herod. Yahweh also told those Magi to leave and go back to Persia.

Because those two Magi came to Herod, they are the main cause that led to many deaths and family sorrows.

Satan/Lucifer is called a star - shining one - light-bearer (in ISA 14:12 and in 2Co 11:14. (see strongs #1966). Therefore it was Satan that guided those occult pagan magi priests to Herod. They were following Satan.

Many baby boys were murdered as result, and baby Yahshua and His parents had to immediately leave their homeland and flee into Egypt.

Those Magi "often called Wise-Men in churches" were evil and unwise. They caused all kinds of problems that led to death and destruction.

BTW, it was those chief Rabbis that latter had Yahshua murdered. They also tried to force Yahshua to drink some myrrh, but he refused, then they crucified him. This story can be confirmed in (Mark 15:1-24)

John 19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

I can share many more facts about Christmas if others here are interested and want to know the truth.

Blessings to all in Master Yahshua,

His Child
