Refreshing sanity from Archbishop Peter Akinola

As a matter of fact, I saw a card with the inscription, season greetings, and I said what season? Winter season or rainy season? If we are celebrating Christmas, then we are celebrating Christmas season, not any other season but the birth of the Christ.

Christ is the centre, and purpose and essence of Christmas celebration, so if you remove Christ from the card and the greeting, then, what are you people talking about? To the ordinary person, it is a harmless thing but if you look at the background, and you see what is happening around, then you will know it is not ordinary. It is part of the game of the anti-Christ to remove Christ and not only that, to remove all Christian emblems from public domain. As they do that year after year, with time, Christianity will be confined to the oblivion. That is the game, that is the agenda and we must therefore stand firmly against it. That is why I raised the alarm, and I call on the media, I call on all our church leaders in this country to rise against that trend.

If you see any card around Christmas in which they say ‘Season Greetings’, don’t buy it, don’t give it, don’t receive it. If it is sent to you, send it back to sender. When the producers begin to lose money, then they will come back to their senses that Christmas is not any other season, Christmas is about Christ ,the saviour of the world.
