What's insightful in lame excuses from the OP of this thread ?

Angels announced the birth of Jesus Christ.
Agreed. Mary & Joseph were happy too.
1.
Did the angels announce his birthday annually and did his human parents celebrate Jesus birthday annually, year after year ?

2
Did annual birthday celebrations take place during Jesus earthly sojourn?


3.
Where the celebrants of annual birthday celebrations followers of Christ?

4.
During Jesus days on earth, was birthday
celebration a pagan practice?

5. Did Jesus Christ or his followers participate in annual birthday celebrations?

6.
Is the bible against pagan celebrations?
Gal 4:8-11.

7.
Jesus himself never had a birthday
party neither were any of his disciples,
friends and family. To make matters
worse, he lost his cousin, John
the Baptist to a pagan birthday party.
Matt 28:19,20 Jesus says "Teaching them to observe ALL the things I have commanded you",
Is Pagan practices, which includes annual birthday celebrations, among All the things Commanded by Jesus Christ?

8.
Jesus Christ is our perfect and sinless Master.
In his perfection, he stayed away from annual birthday celebrations, are you& all Christmas celebrants perfect and wiser than Christ to dictate for him what his followers should practice?

***
If you can't follow Christ Jesus according to his terms, you're on your own.
Christmas celebration amounts to forcing Christ ,so to say, to accept our own ways and standards on our own terms, contrary to Jesus Christ terms.
Need I tell you, no Master would approve that?

the fact that Herod celebrated his birthday is enough to show any wise person that ancient Jews did birthdays and Herod was not pagan he also served Jehovah.

Your lord and personal savior was born by a woman? Human?

Are u an atheist? Don't be offended by my Question I just want to know how to place my answer .

tuyi19:
so you don't see any other day to celebrate the birth of jesus except the day that was set aside for worshipping idol. if ths man said his ministry does not believe in it how does it affect those that are doing it?

no we didn't see any other day that is the best date ever because no one hears of the Roman sun god anymore he is forgotten . Why? Because Christmas overcame .

profolaolu:
It kind unfortunate,you have been program either never to read or to understand, where in the publication did they mention JESUS was not born on the 25th December? The publication said the foundation was idolatry

of course its Idolatry but it no longer is , it has been changed to something good. Our ancestors were Idol worshipers does that mean we are not fit to be Christians because of foundation is idolatry ?

Ha

englishmart:
Thanks, man. I will make further research and questioning

I also had all these questions and i used to seriously consider being an atheist (was even one at some point) but whenever I slip I always see sometin that makes me acknowledge God. Do not listen to people who insult u , if u weren't asking questions u must be stupid . Find ur answers by yourself don't listen to anybody ., find ur truth . I hope u find the light , BTW am Catholic .

Make ona go sidon where contain ona . Who follow ona drag say dem nor born Jesus for December ? Over sabi tell us when dem born am na... December 25th is just a day we celebrate CHristmas to remind the world of the birth of a king

When and where did the Messiah tell you he had already claimed it?

when and where did he tell u he hates Christmas

elated177:



The fact that the Scriptures did not state specifically when the Messiah was born, should give you an idea of how Yahushua the Messiah regards Christmas. The Messiah neither celebrated his birth nor did he instruct us, his saints, to celebrate his birth.

Jer 2:13 for my people have committed two sins: they have turned away from me, the spring of living water, they have dug cisterns, cracked cisterns that can hold no water at all.

u're impossible.

BlueAngel444:
Sanctified by whom?

Ok lemme help you, say Gabriel visited Mary in December does that sanctify the month

Or wait, does the numerous pagan worship of their deities in such day and period count

Or let's be Jewish how about the Hanukkah, does that sanctify it enough

No one is saying Christ was born in December ,but no one knows when he was born so we celebrate on Christmas day...
Are u a witness?

So God come tell u say he nor like Christmas ? And it is a sanctified day used for Christ He has already claimed it..

Janosky:


One day Celebration of hedonism for atheists, pagans and all shades of beliefs amounts "to win souls for Christ"?

So ,imperfect men like you ("Christians" in quote) are even wiser than the Perfect Master,Jesus Christ ,to dictate how his God & Father should be worshiped !

Where did Jesus Christ give you guys the mandate to re-label the FILTH and GARBAGE Jesus never deemed fit to change the label?

Indeed ,Christmas induced hedonism & widespread rise of crime/ social vices, astronomical increase in prices of goods and services "wins souls for Christ "?
Whether you agree or not, everywhere Christmas pays illustrious homage to deity of commercialism & hedonism.
NOT Jesus Christ.

Keep deceiving yourself.

it's a day I celebrate one of the most amazing thing to happen to mankind. Everyone has a reason to celebrate today I choose Christ as my reason .

Muyiwaipere:
Well more points on Jehovah's witness..we don't celebrate because
1.There's no biblical backing stating Jesus was born on Dec 25
2.Jesus never in anywhere said we should celebrate his birthday nor did he celebrate it himself
3.Go and check Wikipedia this Christmas celebration it's no biblical it's from there pagan origin

If you don't believe this... Argue with your phone

Do u know u are of pagan origin ? Go to wikipedia.com and Google Africa . That means Christ won't accept u . If u don't believe This argue with ur phone

Sabby1:
Regardless of date or origin, If I no celebrate Christ at least once a year, wetin I gain.

Happy Christmas Nairalanders

God bless u .I don talk tire , date or root nor matter na wetin dey happen now na matter . E.g. Our ancestors were Idol worshipers so you mean Christ would not accept us because we are of pagan origin?

1Sharon:


Why must you pick a day that was meant for pagan gods to celebrate Jesus's Birthday?

You think he's ok with that?

maybe ? I'll ask him when I see him. But if they picked another day the pagan feast would have still be going on in picking that day they abolished it .

CAPSLOCKED:


THIS SAYS THAT BECAUSE WE'VE SANCTIFIED MARLIANS DAY ON EARTH, IT HAS ALSO BEEN SANCTIFIED IN HEAVEN? GREAT NEWS!

CAPSLOCKED:
I'm sure the angels no longer wear belt

THIS SAYS THAT BECAUSE WE'VE SANCTIFIED MARLIANS DAY ON EARTH, IT HAS ALSO BEEN SANCTIFIED IN HEAVEN? GREAT NEWS!

You pick a candy from the sewage dump & change the label,where did get the candy ?
Is it fit for consumption?

OR:
For instance, You remove G- Stout label and place Legend Stout on the beer bottle you want to drink, which brand are you really drinking?
Compare Galatians 4:8-11

when u pick a pepsi can and recycle it for coca cola is it still Pepsi ? And for ur information Christmas wasn't instituted by pagans who discovered Christ it was created by Christians to win souls for Christ .

Christmas is not a pagan holiday , December 25th was a day of worshiping the sun god but the christains later changed it to the day Christ was Born . Jesus Christ himself said whatever u sanctify on earth is sanctified in heaven ; Christmas has been sanctified on earth therefore it is sanctified in heaven EOD

Is she still looking for a man?

I hope it will not be too late by the time she finds one. I believe she's in her forties already...

Anyways, I don't blame them. It's this present civilization that gave their likes attention and made them celebrities..

If it were to be in the civilization of Imes, these ones will not be celebrities in the first place.

Imes is coming A new civilization is coming in Shaa Allaah

again and again pleeeeeaaaase what is Imes?

IAmStrange:
During the time of our beloved Moses (peace be upon him):

"Wives should be modest in dressing and not reveal their adornments"

During the time of our beloved Jesus (peace be upon him):

"Wives should be modest in dressing and not reveal their adornments"

During the time of the Seal of Prophets (peace be upon him):

"Wives should be modest in dressing and not reveal their adornment"

Present Civilization:

"A certain wife of so and so slays and looks stunning in a gorgeous outfit. Check out the stunning photos"

"A certain wife of so and so looks ravishing in cleavage revealing outfit"

"A certain wife of so and so shows off her nice shape in tight outfit"

It's funny how the world has drifted away from the path of modesty and virtuousness, yet the world is proud of it and fine with it..

...to the extent that issues like this can be considered news worthy...

Shame on us! We are the ones that identify with religion, yet we are the ones at the forefront of promoting immodesty.

Imes is coming! Imes must come. Indeed, the world needs Imes to come and guide people back to the path of righteousness and their major purpose on earth and eliminate all these idle and useless amusements that the devil has made dear to human beings.

this civilization must be brought down!

Imes will create a new saner and better one and at that time, rubbish like this will not be making the news in a society influenced by Imes.

When Imes comes, it will be game over for many evil and immoral people.

Imes, we await your coming

pls whaaat is Imes ?

IAmStrange:
Man, look at those babies
I love automobiles
And it also makes me remember Imes and his civilization.
When Imes comes, you will understand

what is even Imes

This priest just gained my respect . If it was others they would start screaming insults but he replied calmly

Mraphel:
Wizkid just not matured. How can u refer to all pastors as fake?

His brain lacks development..that's how he allowed linda ikeji to score cheap point

Wizkid didn't say the pastor is fake ,neither did he say all pastors are fake he said ogun kill all the fake pastors . Its not the same as saying all pastors are fake
