I didn't really know where to put this, so mods, you can move it if you like.
I saw this in our local free paper. Thought you might like it:
You are cordially invited to A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
Guest of Honor: Jesus Christ
Date: Traditionally December 25, but any day will do because he is always around
Time: Whenever you are ready (Please do not be late because you will miss all the fun!)
Place: In your heart. He will meet you there. (You will hear him knocking)
Attire: Come as you are. Grubbies are okay. He will be washing your clothes anyway. He has new white robes and crowns for everyone who stays till the last.
Tickets: Admission is free. He has already paid for everyone. (He says you could not afford it anyway. It cost him everything he had. However, you do need to accept the ticket!)
Refreshments: New wine, special bread, and a special drink he calls "Living Water." A banquet will follow that promises to be out of this world!
Gift suggestions: Your life. He is one of those people who already has everything else. (He is very generous in return, though. Just wait until you see what he has for you!)
Entertainment: Joy, Peace, Truth, Light, LIfe, Love, Real Happiness, Communion with God, Forgiveness, Miracles, Healing, Power, Eternal Life, Contentment, and much more! (All "G" rated, so bring your family and friends!)
RSVP Very Important! He must know ahead so he can reserve a spot for you at the table. Also, he is keeping a list of his friends for future reference. He calls it the "Book of Life." His kids are giving the party! (that is us!) Hope to see you there! Share this invitation with someone today!:hug:

Hmm, unusual to see something like this in print - usually it's one of those things people's grandmothers forward around about 50 times so the subject line reads "Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw:Fw . . ." ad nauseum.
I can't say I understand the point of these sorts of things, though.

Coincidentally, I was just reading about Christmas as well.
"The lovely old carols played and replayed till their effect is like a dentist's drill or a jack hammer, the bathetic banalities of the pulpit and the chilling commercialism of almost everything else, people spending money they can't afford on presents you neither need nor want, "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," the plastic tree, the cornball creche, the Hallmark Virgin. Yet for all our efforts, we've never quite managed to ruin it. That in itself is part of the miracle"

Sounds very wonderful, Jesus is the most awesome being in the whole universe:grin:
Some of my favorite scriptures.
Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

I personally thought it was just straightup awesome! The fact that it made it into a paper is a miracle in itself. Hate if you gonna hate, but there ain't no denyin the win this invite screams. Corny? Slightly, perhaps, but I think it sums up God's salvation plan rather nicely. Kudos to whoever wrote that. Thank you baby Jesus!

I have to concur - the Bible itself is an indication of that.

Except the part where Jesus was beaten with whips until He bled, had a crown of thorns forcibly placed on his head, and then was hammered to a cross, where he suffered an excruciatingly painful death by suffocation (which is how crucifixion kills you, your lungs get crushed).
Oh wait. Does this destroy the G-rated thing? I guess it must be, that's why Passion of the Christ was rated G and not R.
Jesus' B-Day is that awesome. ^^
Except the 25th of December isn't Jesus' birthday but let's not let that stop us.

No, not really. It's in a noncommercial residential newspaper, probably run by the local community. So basically, this is people printing out pamphlets to hand out to themselves on street corners.ADXC (post: 1276325) wrote:I am also surprised to hear that this was in the newspaper.

You have the right idea, F &C. This was in The Lafourche Gazette, which isn't on the same scheme as, say, The New York Times. It's actually free.

LOL Passion of the Christ rated G? That reminds me of this:

Also, yeah, Jesus was probably born sometime in the summer or very early fall.
