So back in 2010/2011 I was seeking God about whether it was okay to have a Christmas tree put up or not. I would see Christmas trees put up in the church that I was attending at the time, so I figured it was okay and didn’t think anything of it, until one day someone said something about it maybe offending people, and that’s what made me wonder.
I was praying one night asking God about it, and as I was ending my prayer, I heard a voice that said, “Idolatry”. (I’ve never told anybody but my husband, mom, and a friend b/c ppl would probably think I’m nuts or not believe that God spoke to me).
I have read in the bible about how they would cut down trees and carve out images/idols and adorn them w/ gold and things to worship. So I have not been putting a Christmas Tree up since God spoke to me that night.
I have now been seeking him about the same thing b/c I have heard/read from different pastors and Christians that it is not wrong to have a Christmas Tree.
So I wanted to know what everyone here thinks about it. (Sorry this was a long one)
