    The truth about Jingle Bells that Brits always ignore

    in Topics

    Posted

    Written in1857 by James Pierpoint, the song is actually an American classic about Thanksgiving and as such it used to have a very different title.

    When it was first conceived the song was called One Horse Open Sleigh.

    However because a lot of the lyrics are about winter fun, many people in Britain often tend to ignore half of the words when they sing it during carol concerts in order to keep it Christmassy.

    Thus, the song soon became known as Jingle Bells instead.

    The song was originally written to celebrate Thanksgiving 0_Traditional-Stuffed-Turkey-with-Side-D

    31  “For this reason I say to you, every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven.+ 32  For example, whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him;+ but whoever speaks against the holy spirit, it will not be forgiven him, no, not in this system of things* nor in that to come.+

    Matthew 12:31, 32 - What is this sin?
