Hi Nick:Relative to giving alms to the poor you say:Quote Some think giving to their church is what is meant but many of those churches do not know God and His ways.Churches that do not know God and His ways are not the true church.  And so, what do you think is meant if it does not mean giving of alms as a church family to the needy?

Hi:I do not believe that the following scripture indicates that those who receive the mark of the beast will be punished for ever:Quote Rev 14:11And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

I celebrate the birth and the resurrection of my Lord, but to partake in the commercialization of these holidays by teaching kids about Santa Claus or about bunnies that lay colored eggs and about Easter egg hunts is to support them in this, and I won't do this.
