The Difference Between Christmas And Xmas by Miratopaz(m): 9:38am On Dec 22, 2021
The difference
between the word
*CHRISTMAS*
and the word
*X-MASS.*

CHRISTMAS is
combination of
two words:
*Christ and Mass.*

Before Christ was born,
many years ago,
25th Dec used to be
*PAGAN'S day for SACRIFICES.*

Later in the year
533 AD Constantine,
the head of the then
Roman Church which is today the Roman Catholic,
changed the day from
*pagan's day of*
*sacrifices to*
*Jesus Christ's birth commemoration.*

He called the day
*THE MASS FOR CHRIST*
*ie CHRISTMAS*

1. CHRIST in
Hebrew means,
*The Anointed One*
or
*The Chosen One.*

2. MAS in
Greek means
*A Big Gathering*
*of People*

Thus
CHRISTMAS means
*The Gathering of*
*People of Christ,*
*(His Followers/Disciples)*

Then,
where did the word
*X-MASS*
come from?
Be ware!!

Its believed that after
the day of gathering of
Christ's Followers
*{CHRISTMAS},*
*became famous and respected worldwide,*
*Atheists & Antichrists decided to change it by*
*removing the name Christ for an X to mean*
*that there is no Christ.*

It changed the meaning
by reading X-MASS
i.e to mean
*"there is no gathering*
*of Christ's Followers."*
*Merry CHRIST-MAS*
*& NOT X-MAS*

X is often used to
designate a person
*thing/factor,*
*whose true name is*
*unknown/withheld.*
*It's used to take out*
*excise/cancel words.*

"X" has nothing
to do with
*"Christ"*
*"The Anointed One,"*

Let's not replace
*Christ with "X"*
Therefore as a Christian,
*don't use X-MAS but*
*CHRISTMAS.*

You might have made
that mistake last year by
wishing people
*X-Mass*
instead of
*CHRISTMAS*.

Our Father in heaven is
a lovely Father and a merciful one at that.
Why don't you share this message across to
others.
God bless you as you

help and join in
correcting this error.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

There is no difference except an imagined one. The holiday is a pagan holiday and should be accepted as such, this since Jesus Christ did not order His followers to celebrate any holidays in His name. undecided
