Non-Woke Christmas


It wasn’t that long ago that woke was just a word I used in the context of “waking up” after being asleep. Now the word woke has permeated our culture with various meanings, including believing in what are called “progressive” (actually anti-God) values.

Over the past couple of years, many organizations and companies have been described as becoming “woke,” which usually means they have greatly restricted or abolished freedom for those with a truly Christian worldview. And in recent times, we’ve seen considerable backlash against various companies because of their woke positions (which often result in pushing a transgender ideology, etc.). But really, the woke agenda is driven by a secular/anti-Christian worldview based on man’s word rather than God’s Word!

As I often remind people, believing in a literal Genesis 1–11 is the key to being “woke-proof,” as Genesis 1–11 is the foundation for marriage, gender, and, in fact, everything! I tell people that Answers in Genesis is a “non-woke” organization and our Ark Encounter and Creation Museum are “non-woke” attractions.

As the culture becomes more secular, woke, and permeated by moral relativism, Answers in Genesis and our two attractions exist like a beautiful oasis in a desert environment increasingly devoid of biblical truth.

While many places have removed Christ from Christmas, at the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum, we exalt Christ and boldly proclaim the truth of God’s Word and the saving gospel.

Christmas is a time to celebrate freedom from sin.
Christmas predates Christianity. Long before Christ Christmas was the Yule Festival. Christians changed the name and the meaning.
@specman Ok. But if another religious group came along and decided to give their own 'meaningful' slant to the holiday I'm guessing you'd be really pissed and offended.
You celebrate it your way and I'll celebrate it mine, and a Merry Christmas to you.

@robingoodfellow lol! I was not trying to anger you. I am not bothered by anyone celebrating holidays for whatever reasons they celebrate it. Merry Christmas to you too! Again I am sorry for offending you.
@specman no worries, I wasn't offended. Just giving a view of the holiday from a different side 🎄

Yes!! Christmas is the celebration of our Lord and Savior’s birth not a fat man dressed in red handing out toys!

@specman Oh, please. We all know he was born in the spring, and y'all just appropriated the pagan winter celebration.

What is woke. Can you give me an actual definition of that and what it means . ☺
Zonuss · 46-50, M
@GodSpeed63 Because you're expecting the world to love God.
But the Bible tells you they do not. ☝

@Zonuss
Because you're expecting the world to love God.
But the Bible tells you they do not.

The Word of God also says that a lot of us do love Him.
Zonuss · 46-50, M
@GodSpeed63 Most do not

Okay, we get it. You want to be racist without consequences. But lying about the definition of the word woke isn't the way to do it.
