By request, I share the following excerpt from my book SANTA-TIZING: What’s wrong with Christmas and how to clean it up, page 109-110:
“Although Tophet is a different high place than Solomon’s Mount Olivet, they both were places where idols were exalted and God’s children were sacrificed to the same bloodthirsty gods east of Jerusalem.
Do you think that it’s a mere coincidence that enthroned Chemosh (worshiped by the Moabites), Mithra (from Persia, worshiped in Rome), and Tammuz (of Babylon fame) wore the same Phrygian cap as Santa Claus? In Michael Rood’s enlightening book The Pagan-Christian Connection Exposed, Truth vs. Tradition, he expounds that Chemosh was the pagan god of prosperity that was the same cast iron, pot-bellied god of their kin, the Ammonites, who was worshiped by the name of Molech or Moloch. At the time of the winter solstice on the ancient calendar, they had a public child mass. “Mass” literally means sacrifice in this context. “The priests stoked the iron image of the enthroned Chemosh with wood and burning pitch, which turned the idol into a cherry red furnace. Moabite people made long lists of their desires, and recited them to the god of prosperity just before they put their infant children into the red-hot lap of their god with his Phrygian cap. As the babies were incinerated during the December 25th child mass, the people were assured that their sacrifices would be rewarded in the coming year.” Michael Rood has an interesting perspective: “A month before the birthday of Tammuz (December 25th) we have our children make endless lists to a cherry-red pot-bellied god of prosperity, and then we place our terrified children in the lap of this god who wears his Phrygian cap and sits on his throne in the shopping malls.” Minimally, I believe that each Christmas we currently sacrifice our children’s well-being to gods of prosperity, creating the unrighteous dispositions of being demanding and spoiled. Am I the only parent to experience my child’s ungrateful complaint, “Is that it?” when he had just opened a boatload of gifts?
Baal or Moloch or Chemosh—the name may change, but their bloodthirsty appetite for the most acceptable offering of infants does not. “We have ample and melancholy evidence on this subject from the records of antiquity.” It was believed that human sacrifice to Baal held the key to prosperity. Therefore, selfish people desiring to live in ease brought their firstborn child to the high priest, where scholars say the child would be offered as a burnt offering to the deity. Recently, archaeologists unearthed a Baal cemetery containing the remains of more than twenty thousand children. “I will cut off from this place every remnant of Baal . . . those who bow down and swear by the LORD and who also swear by Molech” (Zeph. 1:4-5). The late Reverend Hislop’s extensive research led him to conclude: “Moloch and Roman Saturn have the same bloody character.” This fact is important in our analysis of Christmas being the golden calf of America. As you will discover later in this chapter, the church of Rome was unable to eradicate the heathen celebration of Saturnalia, so they slightly modified it and designated a Feast of the Nativity to be observed. ”

5-STAR TESTIMONIES:
Incredible. I never thought this was an issue for me or my family…..but looking back, I knew. I challenge everyone to read this book, whatever your current view on Christmas is. If you’re convinced Christmas is great and godly, you should have nothing to worry about! But the level of research done is astounding, and the case is clear and convicting! If you have the courage to remove the veils and hear the full truth, if you desire to please and honor Him fully in every way- – whatever that means, read this book!!

The book is a must read. I waited so long in my life to finally have the answers I always wondered about. I knew those answers were out there but never thought I would ever find them till now. It’s all there, it’s profoundly accurate and laid out for the reader to understand. It all makes so much sense to me now!

As I was reading the book, I felt like I was listening to you speak out the words of Yahweh. I could actually see you in the spirit speaking the very words as I was reading them, and the presence of Holy Spirit was breathing life. It brought the very presence of the Lord into the room. I have read many books and never felt that before, because this is shattering darkness and lies and is setting the captives free. The pages … are all wrapped up in love, just like Yeshua would have it told. You are so real and I did not know what to expect when I ordered the book but I knew I had to read it. I thought it would be just a little testimony and then lots of historical facts with scripture to back it up but it is way more than I thought it would be. Anyone reading it will be gripped by it.

I honor you SO MUCH Robin! Santa-tizing spoke to deep feelings inside my heart and soul…and made me SO MAD to be honest! What a sneaky history we have! But what an honor to be called back into the fullness of Truth! It’s a joy to say yes. I don’t look at it as giving up Christmas, but picking up an even better holiday.
~ Ashley
Santa-tizing is the perfect book for anyone who is frustrated with the secularization of Christmas and/or wants to delve deeper into its history. Robin Main presents the facts from a point of view that is simultaneously expert and deeply personal. She discusses the history of Christmas in impressive detail and tells the story of her own personal decision to lay down the holiday. Whether you agree with her final conclusions or not, Santa-tizing will impact you and will be a book that you return to time and again as a reference source.
