Easter Vs Christmas... Opinion Needed by ademoladeji(m): 12:01am On Mar 27, 2016 |
Christmas or Christmas Day is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, observed most commonly on December 25 as a religious and cultural celebration among billions of people around the world. EASTER, also called Pasch or Resurrection Sunday, is a festival and holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial after his crucifixion by Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of Christ, preceded by Lent (or Great Lent), a forty-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance. (Both definitions were gotten from wikipedia) In view of this, I'd like to sample opinions as to which supersede or more important than the other. Please, no bashing. Just wanna know what you think.

Go with Easter. Is a season of repentance, dis is d day d Lord conquer death, He die 4 us 4 our sins. 'Anyone who believe in the resurrection shall not die but have eternal life'. Jesus is the leaving bread, the bread of life. Happy Easter! 1 Like |

Christmas is good in itself but the Resurrection (or Easter) happens to be the real thing Jesus Christ came for. Christmas is the coming while Easter is the fulfilment of the coming. Ask yourself of the two, which is bigger... I think Easter is seriously misunderstand thus the "low key, sober reflection status" of celebrating Easter. I think Easter is where the real excitement and fun is supposed to be! Its the timing of the celebration that dealt with it. |

DebbyChris: Do you know there are some Christian divides that don't celebrate Christmas while some believe 25/12 isn't the right date for Xmas celebration? It's kinda confusing and complicated at times |
