				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I ran across <a href="http://blog.christianhistory.net/2008/12/top_eight_historically_incorre.html" target="_blank">an interesting article</a> on the scriptural inaccuracy of Christmas carol lyrics. I will dig into some of these and summarize them for three posts.</p>
<p><em>Silent night, holy night<br />
All is calm, all is bright<br />
Round yon virgin mother and child<br />
Holy infant so tender and mild</em></p>
<p>No one has ever considered childbirth to be calm or silent.</p>
<p><em>Joy to the world the Lord is come;<br />
Let earth receive her King;<br />
Let every heart prepare him room,<br />
And heaven and nature sing,<br />
And heaven and nature sing,<br />
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.</em></p>
<p>This is not inaccurate but was written as a hymn glorifying Christ&#8217;s triumphant return at the end of the age instead of a Christmas carol.</p>
<p>Let these words from <em>O Little Town of Bethlehem</em> be our prayer today:<br />
<em>O holy Child of Bethlehem<br />
</em><em>Descend to us, we pray<br />
Cast out our sin and enter in<br />
Be born to us today.</em></p>
<blockquote><p>If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9</p></blockquote>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I ran across <a href="http://blog.christianhistory.net/2008/12/top_eight_historically_incorre.html" target="_blank">an interesting article</a> on the scriptural inaccuracy of Christmas carol lyrics. I will dig into some of these and summarize them for three posts.</p>
<p><em>We three kings of orient are<br />
Bearing gifts we traverse afar<br />
Field and fountain, moor and mountain<br />
Following yonder star</em></p>
<p>There is nothing in scripture about their being three of them and nothing about them being kings. They were wise men looking for a &#8220;child who has been born king of the Jews.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>Away in a manger<br />
No crib for His bed<br />
&#8230;<br />
The cattle are lowing<br />
The poor Baby wakes<br />
But little Lord Jesus<br />
No crying He makes</em></p>
<p>To say that baby Jesus never cried is to deny his humanity. See Hebrews 2:14-17 where it states that Jesus was &#8220;fully human in every way.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>It came upon the midnight clear<br />
That glorious song of old<br />
From angels bending near the earth<br />
To touch their harps of gold</em></p>
<p>There is no place in scripture where it says angels play harps. This song never mentions the name of Jesus. It was written my a Unitarian pastor  (Unitarians do not believe in the divinity of Jesus).</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I ran across <a href="http://blog.christianhistory.net/2008/12/top_eight_historically_incorre.html" target="_blank">an interesting article</a> on the scriptural inaccuracy of Christmas carol lyrics. I will dig into some of these and summarize them for three posts.</p>
<p><em>I saw three ships come sailing in<br />
On Christmas day, on Christmas day;<br />
I saw three ships come sailing in<br />
On Christmas day in the morning.</em></p>
<p>Bethlehem is land-locked so no ships would sail there.</p>
<p><em>The First Noel, the Angels did say<br />
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay<br />
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep<br />
On a cold winter&#8217;s night that was so deep</em></p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t a cold winter&#8217;s night. Only tradition places it in December.</p>
