Greeting card companies have been selling Christmas cards since 1915. Hollywood has been making Christmas movies since 1898, and television began broadcasting Christmas Specials in 1957. We are all saturated with secular Christmas Card Theology, islands of faith in an ocean of deception.This book examines secular beliefs about Jesus Christ's conception and birth through a series of 57 questions asking what you believe about Christmas, with answers and explanations of what the Scripture says and teaches. For example: Is the birth of Jesus called the immaculate conception? Did the baby Jesus have a halo? What two Old Testament scriptures say exactly where the Messiah would be born? Did the wise men follow the star from the east? Were sheep, cattle, a donkey, kings, angels, shepherds, and a little drummer boy present in the stable after Jesus was born? Why is it reasonable to assume Jesus was not born in December? Those questions and 50 more are answered in the book with Scripture, sound doctrine, relevant secular history, and sound reasoning.Find out whether you have a Christmas Card Theology or Bible beliefs about the conception and birth of Jesus Christ. You might be surprised at the influence Christmas Card Theology has in your life. James D. Quiggle was born in 1952 at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. He grew up in Kansas and the Texas Panhandle.
