ignorance or should I say obstinance at its peak.. grin

It became clear to many people that the church had lied all through decades and abandoned fraudulent celebrations instituted by fake humans and not Jesus himself.. impostors who wanted to enjoy them selves but had to tag Jesus along..

Church lied? and you guys suddenly know the truth.??

Like seriously

grin

Jesus, bible, Christmas and Christianity were all formulated by the old Greeks.

Take your time and read the history of Christianity beyond what the Bible say about it.

who or what is the catholic church?. Is the church Jesus ??

Without the catholic church there is no bible for bible belivers.
We produced the bible and Christmas.

So if you accept the bible and reject the church that produced it then I have no problem with you rejecting Christmas.

marching on to where... may i remind you of how Jesys will say " get away from me you workers of iniquity" xmas celebration is one of those iniquities.. out right commands by Jesus are being infringed on by you lots.. but the sugar coated pagan celebration is what is upheld universally just for self pleasure...

You know your problem? You have never celebrated Christmas. You don't even know what the celebration is all about. cheesy

Are you a Christian because u were born into it or because u read and believe its the way? With your write up, u are making us believe u met ur fathers celebrating Christmas ,that's why you have to celebrate. U didn't give us any concrete evidence from d scripture u believe in that Christmas should be celebrated.

Christmas means CHRIST + MASS ie Mass for christ. Whichis done even in the bible multiple times.(Acts: 20:7 Acts 2:46; 2:42wink

If you Are you still looking for Christmas get your english dictionary.

Which church did you mould,lets know if they are better, so I can join you there.

when anybody puts on rings who attributes it to Jesus ??..olodo..

The ring you are wearing did you tag Jesus to it??

We are talking about a celebration that concerns Jesus and you're shifting the goal post to a metal worn to beautify our fingers..

Come and prove Jesus told any freaking person to celebrate his birth.. the other things Jesus commanded should be done has been abandoned by fake Christian's like you.. it is the one that doesn't concern him and that will bring self pleasure to you that you cling to..
If you continue to argue with this guy, you would be wasting your precious time. I am sorry to say that the guy has a very low IQ. I wonder how old he is. I don't argue with toddlers.

Acts 2:46
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts

Acts 20:7
On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight.

Mr man how does this tie into December 25th, Santa clause , and all the attachments to xmas.. ??

If these scriptures are the basis for xmas then you must be smoking something cheap.. cool cool.. Christians gathering to break bread everyday is now christ mass?? Rubbish

Well, in as much as we know the evil done to christianity, like the way it was heavily corrupted by the Italians i think we should also take our time once a while to Thank God for if not them maybe christianity would have died even before it was born.. That story for another year.

Now back to the christmas and pagan story.. It was true that it was recorded that 17th to 25th december in the olden days used to be days set aside for the pagans to celebrate their god of agriculture or so god whose name is surltan or something like that.

We don't know which day Jesus Christ was born, Jesus never celebrate any birthday while here on earth neither did his disciples did. Buh see why you should celebrate this christmas as a christian.

This date was purposely choosen by the then roman empire in other to abolish the pagan celebration, instead of celebrating a god during this time then let's organize a celebration for our Jesus instead so we can celebrate him rather than celebrating the pagan god which will help abolish the pagans celebration at the long run and it was a success, so every 25th instead of pagans celebrating their god, we took the day from them and lift our saviour over their god and celebrate Him instead, it's that simple.

Typical example are people from the traditional belief background, when you are chanced to meet Jesus and you wish to resist the day your family do worship whatever they belive in, you might choose this very day to worship God and lift our saviour instead of you joining them, and you'd be surprised that as time goes by, this very day would surely be turn around someday as your family might end up accepting Jesus through you and this day becoming a yearly festival in which your family would choose to worship God just like the way you were doing before they joined you in serving God..

That's the origin of Christmas, so as a christian won't you rather exalt and praise God while appreciating Jesus on such day making sure the gods worshipper are put to shame? Once the celebration is from your heart and it's unto God, you can never miss road.
. Your reasons are not tenable . you don't add to what does not exist in the bible. Was Christ a small boy not to celebrate his own birthday if he deems it necessary? Even if he forgot to do so , at the point of his death he would have informed his apostles to observe his birth as they do for his death. Saying that a group of people agreed to fix it on 25th is not even valid, since birthday celebration right from origin is unchristian. Let's not merge Christianity with paganism
