In his article "Christmas Reminds Us That Our Spiritual Nature Endures," Lee Edwards writes - "Let us first agree on how not to celebrate Christmas: by standing in a Walmart check-out line. Let’s get our priorities straight. The spiritual takes precedence over the material, especially at Christmas. Barry Goldwater knew this as well as anyone. Here’s how the charismatic senator from Arizona, who sparked a conservative revolution, put it in his book, The Conscience of a Conservative: "The root difference between the conservatives and the liberals of today is that conservatives take account of the whole man, while the liberals tend to look only at the material side of man’s nature. The conservative believes that man is, in part, an economic, an animal creature; but that he is also a spiritual creature with spiritual needs and spiritual desires. What is more, these needs and desires reflect the superior side of man’s nature." Leftist-liberals believe in materialism and teach that matter is all there is. They illogically insist: "There are no absolutes... and that's the absolute truth!" But we conservatives who come from a Christian heritage know otherwise: "The Word became flesh and dwelled among us. We saw His glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth" (John 1:14). God has taken on human nature, so that "we can become partakers of the Divine nature" (2 Peter 1:4). Get the whole story: read the full article & get our free weekly newsletter: subscribe below! |
