Record of when He was born and His lifetimes till He died were all recorded in the Bible,including the number of years He spent on earth,even days after His resurrection. So God belief in accuracy because His ways are perfect. So we dont just pick a day in the year and be saying we are celebrating Jesus Christ.After all His death weight more than His birth. Because when He was born He has right to choose His life the way want and He can even fail to fulfill the purpose of coming to earth,that is to die for our sins. So when He died we are saved. And he categorically commanded us to remember His death and not birth. After He left the earth His disciples Commemorate His death has ordered by Him but no record of His birth being celebrated by His disciples can be found. When we do that is like saying that the Bible not complete,that we need to add our own. We should try as much as possible to limit ourselves to what can be found in the Bible. When a child is born, we all says congrats and lied to the child that EARTH IS SWEET but does it really sweet! It is only when someone died that we say the truth that HE OR SHE HAS LEFT THE WICKED WORLD FULL OF SINS. So we should stop deceiving ourselves. Many child that are born good ended up doing wrong and when they were born then people were happy not knowing that they will choose bad ways in life. It is when Jesus died to us that matters not his birth because he chose to endured to the last by choosing wisely. Some will be celebrating their birth when they are not doing the right things(serving God) then what are we celebrating for! Do we own ourselves! No winder it was pagan worshipers that celebrated their birth in the Bible because they dont know their purpose of living on earth. So my people, what is our purpose on earth? What is God purpose for us? Why is it more vital to attend burial than birth day? What does the dead of Jesus Christ meant for us and why we need to remember this? And how does His death need to be remembered? Answers to all these questions can be found in the Bible

God revealed the birth of christ to the three wise men (which foolish men are still doubting and looking for commands, date) before they believe. It written down in the bible in matt 2 vs 1...... and the Bible recorded that the three wise men celebrated with exceeding great joy because they know and believe what God has given to mankind out of love and humility in a time when a wicked Herod who murdered all male children in attempt to kill Jesus.

Everything about the Yuletide and Christmas is connected to Hellenistic doctrines of the Pagans. It has nothing to do with Christians. It was incorporated into Christianity in the 3rd century by a Pagan. Many people know this, but because of the lack of love and respect for God will not make them give it up. They always find a way to twist it to suit something in the Bible.

Jesus died thousands of years ago but little kids still carry baby Jesus in the Churches. What sort of disrespect is that?
2 Corinthians 5:16 From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.

Exodus 20:4 "You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.

Imagine taking kids to the market to buy Jesus. What breed of sarcasm is that?

Look deeply, Christmas is never meant for any Christian. The only way the devil can continue his form of Paganism was to incorporate it in the Churches. The pastors and clergies all know this. Why not teach the kids from early on. Many adults came to know of this now. They will hardly tell them the truth. Christmas is a day set aside to worship a pagan God, and then some say that they assumed the day to overshadow the Pagans. Malarkey at its finest.
2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

Now what place does Santa from the Northpole have in the Bible? People say that he brings good gifts. From the north pole? No one lives in the north pole. How come? Doesn't it sound remarkable that Santa can be twisted to Satan? SANTA-SATAN

So many people eating, enjoying and feeding people with ignorance.

Do you know that Santa is from a Latin word Sancta, meaning, HOLY?

You don't celebrate Christmas? Beautiful, fine and good. Allow people celebrating to celebrate. Maybe as god wey you be, tens of billions of christians that have been celebrating and will continue to celebrate it are in your hell ba?

You people should stop decieving your self please.

what you are celebrating is the point not the day its fixed,who owns the day after all.

that your birthday fall into the day your village people celebrate sango does not make you sango worshiper when you celebrate your birthday or move it to that day for celebration based on logistics

A day that was once celebrated for evil, idol is being converted to celebrate Jesus. Is it an offense? If that day wasnt converted, people would still would be serving the former.

Did God reveal the birth of Jesus Christ to you? Did he tell you to celebrate it? Or are you a descendant of the three wise men? Its is very clear that chrismas wasn't celebrated by early Christians. If it is so important as you guys think while didn't Paul and co who were closer to Jesus than you will ever be not celebrate his birth? Well done Sir!

And the date self is not even correct. If it was correct before then I could even cut you some slack and say carry go. Bur instead it was attached to a day of deep pagan origin that weda you like it or not has corrupted Christmas. When the Bible say light and dark can't mix you guys will not hear. Evil communication corrupts good manners you will not hear.

Anyhow don't expect to convince you. So do what you like its your life and your free to live it anyway you want. And same applies to me.

Isaiah 61:6
But ye shall be named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

Isaiah 60:5
Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.

As long as your celebration is to your God and not to a pagan god, then it is allowed.

Its not a good thing at all. God clearly States in the bible that we should not copy pagan traditions. So many of these pagan traditions have been mixed in with Christmas, making the holiday totally flawed.

The bible tells us to mark the day when Jesus died not the day he was born. The Celebration of Christmas was a man made decree.

Romans 14

KJV:Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

NIV:Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.

5
KJV:One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

NIV:One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.

6
KJV:He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

NIV:Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.

They are both Hellenistic doctrines, pagan celebrations of their false gods and Constantine the Pagan, incorporated them into Christianity in 3rd century CE about 200 years after the death of the last apostle, John. That is why Jesus said that the evil one will sow his seed among his fine seeds and they will booth germinate.
The Bible says that light and darkness has no melting point. Therefore, just like the first century Christians, no true Christian should celebrate a festival that has ties with the Pagan gods

Point of correction the quintessential keyword here is Jesus. Whether the day was once used to worship amadioha or sango is of no import. Today it's the day we all recognise and celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ.
