Merry Christmas 2010!

Look at the year: 2010. The very year is a witness to the whole world that Jesus came. The very date AD 2010 declares: “In the year of our Lord 2010!” As our world, even in America, becomes more “unchristian,” they seek to erase every vestige of Jesus Christ from our lives. If every real truth-seeker would re-visit history and expunge every reference and work of Christianity from the pages of human society, so that the Bible ended with the book of Malachi, they would find a very sad, sick and hopeless world: A world void of the power of the Gospel to save, heal, deliver, and satisfy the impossible demands of the Law, of the inclusive compassion of Christ to elevate all: Women and men, rich and poor, black and white, Jew and Gentile, and open the door of access to the Father and Creator of all to “whosoever.”

Jesus Himself said, “If I had not come and spoken to them…If I had not done among them the works which no other man did…” (John 15:22 &24).
Those who want to rid society of Christianity will get their wish, and perhaps sooner than they know. Because not only did Jesus come and demonstrate His Father God to all mankind, He is coming again! When He comes this time, it will be in the twinkling of an eye, the nano second it takes for the signal to go from your brain to your eyelid, to catch away His redeemed ones from every corner of the earth.

Then they will experience what it would be like if Jesus had not come and there were no Christians to remind them of His words. Then there would truly be no more offensive“Merry Christmas,” on people lips, nor holy carols, or nativity scenes.

But until then, let our lights shine brighter than all the phony holiday-lighted homes, reindeer and snowmen, and our voices sing louder and more joyfully than “Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer”, the glorious anthem of the saved: “Joy to the World… The Lord is come, and we have received our King!”

Sharon

Sharon Hardy Knotts is the daughter of R.G. & Doranne Hardy. She has served alongside of her parents in ministry at Faith Tabernacle Church, Baltimore, Maryland since childhood. Sharon was baptized in the Holy Spirit at age 7 in an old-fashioned tent revival, where she was slain in the Spirit, speaking in tongues. She began “preaching” in youth services at age 9, and began traveling with her father in evangelistic meetings at age 13.

Like her father and grandmother before her (Mother Mary Hardy), Sharon is an avid student of the Bible and holds a Master’s in Theology from CLST, Columbus, Georgia. She is an accomplished teacher of the Word and also an anointed preacher. The marriage of these different delivery styles has produced scores of ministry tapes on various pertinent topics, which appeal to many believers.

Sharon and her husband Benny serve in fulltime ministry at R.G. Hardy Ministries. He prints Faith Is Action and oversees its publication and distribution. Family: Three grown children, Scott & Todd Stubblefield, and Sarah Knotts. Daughters-in-laws: Corinne & Amy Stubblefield. Grandsons: Noah & Matthew Stubblefield are Scott’s sons. Sharon especially enjoys writing and serves as Editor of Faith Is Action and other Ministry publications. She also writes essays and poetry, some of which can be found here.
