Lol. . . @Gamine, There's really no need to be over-reactive. Christmas is not a "Christian-thing", abi? Okay, no worries. Why would anyone care less whether or not it was mistaken as such? The basic understand that people have is that Christmas reminds them of the birth of Jesus Christ - and nobody really cares to calmly contemplate what the Birth of Christ means before they throw themselves on the streets to celebrate that holiday. But whatever the hue and cry, do the wrong impressions mean that Christians should never celebrate the birth of the Saviour? Should we rejoice at all that the Saviour was indeed born? Talking about celebrations, the inspired apostle does not restrain anyone from honouring an invitation offered by non-Christians to their parties. "And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and you desire to go, eat everything set before you, examining nothing because of conscience." (1 Cor. 10:27). I am in no place to judge any Christian for partaking of such invitations - it is their personal choice. And what if that invitation is about Christmas? Okay, point made. Let's not become boiled over about Christmas. . . or even Easter, etc. There are more serious issues that we can warn and educate others about. But as the wise apostle says: "One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. " (Rom. 14:5). Many blessings. |

Na, im not sspewing no venom here but i was shocked at the many practices of 'christmas' that r so pagan the devil wanting us to constantly remember the baby Jesus instead of the risen King i get u , pilgrim im just so happy my eyes r open |
Re: No More Christmas For Me! by pilgrim1(f): 6:41pm On Nov 15, 2007 |
No wahala. One more thing: it's good to enjoy the 'opened eyes'; but we should also recognize that while the devil tries to hold us down to a "baby" Jesus because of 'Christmas'; so he also tries to hold us to many very wrong notions of the Kingdom and Lordship of Jesus Christ. Besides, it is not all as simplistic as some people try to make it sound - because usually so many people will complain about December 25th, or how Christians are not supposed to worship on Saturday or Sunday, blah blah. Sometimes it may even get so confusing. But the fact is that if we pay so much attention to the distractions, then there would be no day of the week left for any Christian to do anything. Sunday, as they say, is reserved for worship of the sun; Thursday, they say, is a day devoted to the pagan god "Thor", etc! Haba! Anyhow, enjoy - and may your days be filled with His blessings. |

Re: No More Christmas For Me! by Horus(m): 10:35am On Nov 16, 2007 |
The way things are going Christianity, like Christmas will fade away because they are focusing on FAITH and MYTH rather than TRUTH and SCIENTIFIC FACT. They say that we and our Black Egiptian Ancestors are heathens or pagans, yet look at what their own Bible says about their “Christmas Tree”: SANTA= SATAN What does Santa have to do with the birth of Jesus Christ? Satan dresses in RED. Santa dressed in RED. Santa comes in through the FIREPLACE Satan comes from the PLACE of FIRE (Hell) Are you still doubting that as a Christian you have forsaken Jesus Christ for Santa (Satan) The BIBLE is a Black Egiptian Book and it has been translated out of the Ancient Tongues of the Prophets and Servants of The Most High. Get back on track. Well, we must save the Children from this wicked paganistic practice called “CHRISTMAS”. We Africans must Celebrate December 25th, as “CHILDREN’S DAY”. The Children are encouraged to give each other gifts, and their parents also give their Children Gifts. AND no one LIES by telling the Children that Satan …, OOPS…I mean Santa Is paying them off for being “good” for the whole year since last Christmas. So our little innocent children fall in love with “Santa”(Satan) rather then Jesus Christ, Their Savior. We all know that it is GOD who REWARDS us for being GOOD while Satan … OOPS…I mean Santa , rewards us for being wicked and selling to him our Souls for a price. |

WISDOM is the answer!!! Now it seems like scales have been removed from your eyes, some more years and it would be like insight and understanding have covered up what you are so enthusiastic of now. I am enjoying my holiday in joshua style |
Re: No More Christmas For Me! by chuckdee4(m): 4:35pm On Nov 16, 2007 |
@ Gamine If i can celebrate my birthday i don't see why i can't celebrate that of Christ Jesus, it may not be the exact date but its the acknowledgment that counts. You have obviously read something somewhere, post a link to it or let us know so that everyone can see where ur coming from, u can't call Santa Clause Santa Lucifer and expect us to understand |
Re: No More Christmas For Me! by Joey82(m): 4:49pm On Nov 16, 2007 |
@poster, what i'm curious to hear about are those evil things u say are behind christmas. besides, even if there are evil practises about christmas, u should just try to celebrate urs in a christian and righteous way. |

Re: No More Christmas For Me! by nkan(m): 6:08pm On Nov 16, 2007 |
Dear young lady, If you don't have something important to post why not only read? If you remember to either mark or celebrate your birth day, and you are telling people not to remember the birthday of our saviour, then you may be wicked. Why do you even think of that? is that your personnal relationshipwith Jesus? Birthday or nobirthday,what is your relationshipwith him? There are somepersonal decisions like that which you don'tneed to airout,keepittoyour self anddon'tconfuse people. It is just your believe. |
Re: No More Christmas For Me! by Nobody: 6:38pm On Nov 16, 2007 |
Some folks should just come out plain and simple and tell their loved ones they have no money for Christmas gifts and merriment Like anything special happens on Dec 25 that doesn't happen on the 10th. let's hear something! |

Re: No More Christmas For Me! by CrazyMan(m): 7:41pm On Nov 16, 2007 |
Before you begin to condem christmas, you must know it's origin. Christmas celebration simply means the birth of the Christ (Saviour). But most unbelivers would tell you that Christ wasn't born on the 25th of December; but the most important thing is that he was born and he came into this world to die for us and that's why we who are belivers celebrate his birth. If you were reading your bible regularly, you have known that the birth of Christ means a lot to this world. And finally, there is no evil surrounding the celebration of christmas so if you don't wish to celebrate it, that's up to you. |
