I was wondering about pagan rituals. My long time friend of 10 years has not spoken to me in over 2 months because of this verse.
Jeremiah 10:3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
She claims that this verse is about christmas trees . We got into a debte over this verse in which I told her that it was reffering to an Ashera Pole. She did not see this. We are not speaking because I told her she is taking the verse out of context which she interprets "me calling her a false witness" Good Lord if everyone who took this out of context was a flase witness....Hell would be full wouln't it??
I would like everyones opinion on this verse and tell me what you think it is reffering to and PROVE with scripture WHY.
Thanks
