Pastor Chojecki's Christmas tree.

Several people on this blog have provided a link to this video:

Skoro człowiek nazywający się pastorem zaszufladkował takie osoby jak my, jako: hejterów i legalistów, to nie pozostaje nic innego, jak ustosunkować się do tego ataku, zwłaszcza, że on sam film kieruje do tych  umownie rzecz biorąc “legalistów”.

From the beginning. On the video board, we see two highlighted slogans:

1. Christmas tree haters
2. Absurdities of legalists.

 

Jest to psychomanipulacja, ponieważ prawda broni się sama. Nie trzeba jej wzmacniać wkładanymi w nieznających Słowa Bożego umysły pejoratywnymi określeniami. Tak jak kiedyś Chojecki otoczył się napisami: “pastor”, tak jakby to miało wzmocnić postrzeganie jego osoby jako pastora. Swoją droga skąd mam mieć pewność, że nie jest przeszkolony w tego typu technikach…

Now for a change, we should create a video with two subtitles:

 

1. A self-proclaimed pastor and his Christmas tree.
2. The nonsense of lukewarmness.

Would that be fair?

I don't think the term hecklers would ever come out of the mouths of the apostles. How do I know this? Firstly, the apostles shunned the world, and this slogan is strictly from the world, and secondly, they would not use a term marked by manipulation. Mr Niesiołowski called all the opposing interlocutors as hecklers. This is such a cornering.

Mr. Chojecki's statement is strong evidence of arbitrary interpretation of Scripture. He cites this quotation:

 

“Co więc dotyczy spożywania mięsa, składanego w ofierze bałwanom, wiemy, że nie ma bożka na świecie i że nie ma żadnego innego boga, oprócz Jednego.” 1 Kor 8.

 

This verse says that we Christians have one God, but that does not mean that there were not and are not other gods. Example:

 

” Teraz wyznaję, że Pan jest większy niż wszyscy inni bogowie, gdyż w ten sposób ukarał tych, co się nimi pysznili.

Ks. Wyjścia 18:11″

As we can see there are self-appointed gods.

If there are no other gods, why does the commandment read: you shall have no other gods before me?

 

You shall have no other gods before me. Ex 20.3

 

I value Chojecki for his historical and political knowledge, but when it comes to knowledge of the Bible, he is at the beginning stages of learning it. The very fact that he believed that Jesus would walk with a real sword in the end times shows a lack of elementary knowledge. The average Bible reader knows that Jesus will not fight the antichrist with swords like in a sci-fi movie, but:

For the mystery of ungodliness is already at work. Let only him who now holds back give way, 8 then the Wicked One will appear, whom the Lord Jesus will extinguish with the breath of his mouth and will destroy [by the very] revelation of his coming

 

 

Of course, here full agreement, the Christmas tree is not an idol in itself, but it is an element of idol worship. It is not a Christian custom. Chojecki will not find in the Bible a verse concerning the ritual of celebrating December 24th with a Christmas tree. Instead, we will find the source of the Christmas tree celebration in books and texts around Christianity.

Another example of Chojecki's faulty reasoning can be seen when he calls some famous footballer an idol. Of course he is not really a god, but anyone who stands above God is an idol for the fans. This is so called idolatry. I don't want to believe that Chojecki doesn't know about it. All in all, fallen angels and gods are behind a football player, and until recently the world cup was Nike. Who is Nike? The goddess of victory, that is, a fallen angel.

 

 

Chojecki says:

 

“gorliwi wierzący zagalopowaliście się”

 

Or maybe Mr. Chojecki has less knowledge?

 

Chojecki's teachings contradict the Bible. I'm not saying all of them, because I don't watch videos from that channel. However, a Christian shown with a gun is reduced to just a member of ISIS. They fight with a sword and a gun, but we fight with the Word of God.

 

In Thessalonians it is written:

 

“Unikajcie wszystkiego, co has even if only appearance of evil 1Tes 5,22″

Chojecki, on the other hand, says:

 “są rzeczy obojętne moralnie”.

Agreed. However, using on a particular day, a particular object typical of Satanism is a violation of the commandment.

The apostles said:

(4) Believers, do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity against God? So if anyone wants to be a friend of the world, he becomes an enemy of God. As 4

 

The world celebrates the famous merry christmas and Chojecki wants us to be like the world. I hope he is just a lukewarm Christian and not more than that, because he is a man of great intelligence, which has an impact on the audience.

 

Beware of Mr. Chojecki if only for the sake of cognition. Blind trust leads to darkness.

 

It further quotes Corinthians:

 

“tak więc wszystko, cokolwiek w jatce sprzedają, spożywajcie, niczego nie dociekając – dla spokoju sumienia” (1 Kor. 10:25,”

Alfred Palla explains the heavy verse:

 

Jeśli poważnie traktujemy Biblię, to musimy uznać, że zasada “niczego nie dociekajcie – dla spokoju sumienia” odnosi się także do dzisiaj spotykanej sytuacji – często przytaczanej przez wrogów diety biblijnej – jedzenia posiłku u kogoś obcego. Ale jeśli zasada ta jest słuszna, to wydaje się ona bezpośrednio godzić w poglądy zwolenników diety biblijnej.

Incompatible with the biblical context

But let's return to the texts in question, 1 Corinthians 10:25 and 27. I said above that they are strange because they are inconsistent with common sense. But they are also strange for much more important reasons; after all, common sense is a human way of thinking that must be subordinated to God's rules.

Zasada “wszystko, cokolwiek w jatce sprzedają, spożywajcie, niczego nie dociekając – dla spokoju sumienia” oraz ściśle z nią związana druga “jeżeli zaprosi was ktoś z niewierzących, a wy zgodzicie się przyjść, jedzcie wszystko, co wam podadzą, nie pytając o nic – dla spokoju sumienia” są niezgodne z tzw. bliższym i dalszym kontekstem biblijnym. Biblia bowiem, jak się wydaje, zakazuje spożywania mięsa z ofiar składanych bożkom. Przeczytajmy dwa teksty Nowotestamentowe z Apokalipsy św. Jana: “Ale mam nieco przeciw tobie, bo masz tam takich, co się trzymają nauki Balaama, który pouczył Balaka, jak podsunąć synom Izraela sposobność do grzechu przez spożycie ofiar składanych bożkom i uprawianie rozpusty” (Obj. 2:14); “ale mam przeciw tobie to, że pozwalasz działać niewieście Jezabel, która nazywa siebie prorokinią, a naucza i zwodzi moje sługi, by uprawiali rozpustę i consumed sacrifices to idols” (Obj. 2:20).

These are the words of Jesus Himself! They make it unmistakably clear that the eating of sacrifices to idols is a sin that we must avoid. Of course, these words probably should not be taken literally: eating sacrifices to idols would only be a symbol of other sins. The question is not important here, because it is clear that the symbol of sin in the Bible cannot be something impeccable and pure. For example, fornication is a symbol of departure from the true faith, but fornication itself, taken literally, also deserves condemnation.

He says ironically:

is a spaghetti cult, then don't eat spaghetti.

 

Logical fallacy. Flour is primordial and is a common ingredient in many foods. However, making spagethi out of it for religious purposes on a particular day with the followers of that cult is a sin. So are groves and heights or steles. Groves in themselves are not bad, nor are heights, but making a form of worship out of it is. Someone had to make the groves, and someone had to make the heights.

Likewise with paintings. A landscape painting is not a bad thing. Its frames are usually made of wood. However, a painting made of wood with an image of a false idol is evil. The example with spaghetti by Chojecki's logic shows us: don't make any paintings because it is a sin.

I have paintings from the seaside at home. are they a form of worship? no. Do I do something on a particular day, season, like thousands, millions of other worshipers? no.

If I have a Christmas tree decorated with snakes in my house with a 5-pointed star on top then when all Catholics and other deviant religions celebrate the Roman Sol In victus is it a sin? Yes.

 

 

Finally, about the alleged zealotry:

 

” A tak, skoro jesteś letni i ani gorący, ani zimny, mam cię wyrzucić z moich ust. (17)Ty bowiem mówisz: “jestem bogaty” i “wzbogaciłem się”, i “niczego mi nie potrzeba”, a nie wiesz, że to ty jesteś nieszczęsny i godzien litości, i biedny, i ślepy, i nagi. (18) I counsel thee to buy of me gold purified in the fire, that thou mayest be enriched, and white garments, that thou mayest be clothed, and that thy shameful nakedness be not seen, and balm to anoint thy eyes, that thou mayest see. (19) Ja wszystkich, których kocham, karcę i wychowuję. Bądź więc gorliwy i nawróć się.”

 

Choose for yourself: zeal or lukewarmness.

Do what you want.
