We are coming upon a time that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ as the Son of God by Christianity. Roman Catholics and Western Protestants celebrate on December 25 and the Eastern Rite Christians celebrate a week later.
Every Christian should know where God took on the flesh of a man in the His Incarnate birth. Bethlehem has been a Christian city since the Roman Empire days. Even under the conquest of Mohammedans, the majority of population of Bethlehem was Christian.
Radical Islamism has changed that. Christians had over 80% of Bethlehem’s population in 1948. That was the year the Western World allowed Israel to form a sovereign nation. I say allowed because the West did little to actually preserve that sovereignty. For the Jews of Israel in 1948, it was fight or die fighting.
Today Radical Islamism has forced a majority of Christians to flee Bethlehem.
