The report below serves as an excellent example of the shallow understanding that people in general have regarding the so-called "Star of Bethlehem". Notice that the "star" is held in awe ... some sort of an object that Satan himself caused to glow in the dark in order to cause the premature death of Jesus. Satan's worst nightmare is Jesus, was back then, and still is. Jesus has yet to kick Satan out of heaven according to the Bible, after which he will be put in prison for the thousand years. At the end of the thousand years, Jesus will bring Satan's life to an end. No more Satan! Satan is quite aware of Jesus' role in the outworking of God's purposes, which of course gave him ample reason for wanting to kill Jesus as a young lad. That's the REAL truth behind the "Star of Bethlehem"!!! But does anyone care?
Jimmy Velasquez reads "Follow the Star All the Way to Bethlehem" to his 1-year-old daughter, Riley, on Saturday during a break from "The Letter Home," the Christmas pageant at Paramount Terrace Christian Church. The final performance of the show is set for 7:30 p.m. today at the Amarillo Civic Center Auditorium.
