Boss, u ar getting the whole thing wrong. U make it sound like I said Christmas shouldn't be celebrated or that it would be wrong celebrating it, but that's never my point. Remember in my first post, I did say that any person is free to celebrate whatever he deems good, whether Christmas or new year or Easter or anything. My point was only against the insinuation that Christmas is in the bible whereas it isn't.
Second, why ar u also making it sound like I said that Easter is also in the Bible? Easter isn't. Remembering the Death of Christ is in the Bible but that pagan custom Easter isn't. I said that remembering his death is in the Bible because I understood the command he gave in Luke 22:19-20 to mean his death. He said that they should eat his body and drink his blood which establishes the new covenant. If u believe that his body and blood do not signify his death but his life, then u ar OK. But that still doesn't make Christmas or Easter biblical. It only disputes whether he commanded we celebrate his death or not, which isn't the subject matter here.
If u know the actual origin of the pagan customs, Christmas and Easter celebrations, u won't dare say that the concept of Christmas and Easter came from the Bible. Just like the concept of new year, football etc are not in the Bible.
If u say that some angels sang songs when Christ was born then u ar right but, how does this amount to them holding Christmas carol? Do u even know how Christmas came about? Do u know that it was just until later that the Christian practices were merged with pagan customs to make Christians start celebrating Christmas? Do u know it wasn't like that when Jesus was born and even so many years after he was born, so how on earth did the angels manage to sing "Christmas Carol songs" when he was born?
Boss, the angels sang songs but never sang Christmas songs. That they sang song when Jesus was born doesn't mean they were singing the song to observe some pagan customs abeg. And how does wise men giving gifts amount to them giving Christmas gifts? Please, check up the history of Christmas so as to get when it actually began.
Truth is, Christmas and Easter began as pagan festivals and then Christians bought into them, so it can never be likened to what the wise men and angels did in the book of Luke when they never knew anything about Christmas. If u want to celebrate the birth of Christ, then u ar right (though not biblically right or wrong), but saying u ar celebrating Christmas because its concept is in the Bible is not correct. I also watch Olympic Races every four years but Olympics originated from Greece where they played it in honour of their god, Zeus. But now, everyone of us have adopted it but I can't come out and say now that the concept of Olympics race is in the Bible just because 1 Corinthians 9:24 encouraged us to run races to win prizes. That's heresy. Just as u believe that the wise men that came to see Jesus were 3, I won't argue that, but if u say that the concept of the wise men being 3 in number came from the Bible, then u ar wrong because the Bible never recorded such.
U said u had encounter with Jesus and he told u that Christmas is a time when the dungeons were opened, a place of rest for all humanity. I won't argue that because I believe that people have encounters with spirits, but I am only talking Bible here and not our personal spiritual encounters.
Once again, u ar free to celebrate whatever but the concept of Christmas, Easter, Olympics etc are not in the Bible, they all originated as pagan festivals.

If you cannot post the link where I commented on a Christmas tree in Abu Dhabi then I think you deserved to be banned for passing wrong information.



Who told you that all Christians even believe in Christmas trees? Talking about tolerance, Israel is the only country in the middle east that tolerates all religions because it is the only democratic country in the middle east. Does Saudi Arabia now allow Churches to be built in their land?

laribari:
You are a liar sir!

Please provide biblical evidence. Chapter what? Verse what?

Christmas came from christ-mass which is celebration of christ because mass means to celebrate in a service.

If you say 25th dec was not when Jesus was born I I'll agree with you[color=#000099][/color] but saying christmas is not a Christian celebration is blasphemy.

May I inform you that the angels were the first to ever sing christmas carol because the bible told us that as the shepherd arrived the manger, the heavens opened and multitude of angels started to sing unto the birth of the new born king.

Luke 2:13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying: 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.,

So with this great news of eternal peace and goodwill, why should the church who is the body of christ not celebrate Him?

It is in the history and culture of mankind to always pick a day to mark of any celebration, such as birthday, Hiv/aid day among other and as crazy as it gets, we have horn-free day too. So what I wrong picking a date to mark off christmas? We celebrate Him everyday but to mark off an event where you make merry and all that, you have to pick a date.

Even that stiff neck county called Israel, till date they have days to mark off ancient events such as feast of tabernacle etc.

You can't separate Christmas from the church and Jesus is the real father Christmas and not that stupid blasphemous antichrist who appears and disappears calling himself Santa Claus abi Satan claus.

To say you are father Christmas, it means you are God over that event but those who knows the truth understands the concept of the father christmas and its to remove Jesus from the celebration.

Now unbelievers can celebrate it and look forward to meet Santa rather than going to church to meet Jesus. So the world try to circularize christmas. No its called xmas instead of christmas. X means a cancellation of the mass. Means no more celebration of Christ. So I rather call I christmas than xmas even though it's longer to write. Kids of today don't even see Jesus as the symbol of christmas, why we are the reason for the season because He came to die for us, instead kids watch out and die to visit the human father Christmas and christians parents make this same mistake too.

A lot of people don't even understand this and they follow what the confused ones are saying.

Pardon my ignorance, but how is this an offence? Both of them are adults. The man toasted her and she even met him in AN UNKNOWN DESTINATION. I suspect that there's more to the story
