Is Christmas idolatrous?
DECEMBER 24, 2013 BY AGENCY REPORTER
Leave a Comment
The General Superintendent of the Deeper
Christian Life Ministry, Pastor W.F Kumuyi,
has described the annual celebration of
Christmas as idolatrous and unscriptural.
Comments: (nairaland.com)
Ochallo: Nigerian Christianity is really
turning into something else; we act as if
Nigerians are the ones who are going to be
in heaven alone. Yes we don’t know exactly
when Jesus was born, but Christmas
remains the greatest celebration of Christ.
Recently I was with Indians who knew
nothing about Christianity, but they knew
about Christmas and the love and joy it
brings and wanted to share in it. The
responsibility of Christians is to ensure that
people don’t forget the real meaning of
Christmas.
Obeski13: Everybody is entitled to what he
or she believes. As far as I’m concerned,
nothing is idolatrous about Christmas. The
essence of it is to appreciate Jesus as the
Messiah.
Although the day he was born was not
important, what is being celebrated is not
the day per se; it is the role he has played
and still plays in the lives of all men.
Danhumprey: It’s a pagan tradition, no
doubt. For one, we don’t know exactly when
Jesus Christ was born.
We only give speculation about the day we
think he was born, which may not be true. It
shouldn’t be about celebrating December
25, rather it should be about celebrating Jesus.

There is a column on the punch newspaper 'what the social media say'. There you see some comments from nairaland, twitter and punchonline published.
I've once seen my comment published.
