It Is Not X-mas But Christmas: Correct That Atheist by Chidany(m): 9:10am On Dec 28, 2018
*XMAS OR CHRISTMAS?*
Did you know there is a great difference between the word *CHRISTMAS* and the word *X-MAS*?

If not, then read the following:
�������
CHRISTMAS is combination of 2 words: *Christ* and *Mass*

Before Christ ws born Some so 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 Large Gathering of People*

Thus CHRISTMAS means *The Gathering of Christ*

Then, where did the word *X-MASS* come from?
Be ware!!
Its believed that after the *day of Christ's gathering* {CHRISTMAS}, became famous n respected worldwide, Atheists n 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 Christ's Gathering"

Merry CHRIST-MAS & NOT X-MAS
X is often used 2 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," Don't replace Christ with "X"

Therefore as a Christian don't use X-MAS but *CHRISTMAS*

You might have made that mistake this year again 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 *drop your phone now and plead for his mercy* and share this message across to others.

God bless you as you help and join in correcting this error.

The Lord bless u and have a *Merry Chrismas* not *X-MASS*!!

“Xmas” is just a written abbreviation of the word “Christmas”. It is pronounced as “Christmas” when read out loud.

No sir...There is no abbreviation for Christ... You do not say Jesus X instead of Jesus Christ...
