January 7th, 2023 is being celebrated as Christmas Day in Ethiopia and by the Orthodox Churches.

#MerryChristmas It's no news that Ethiopia has a different Calendar from the rest of the world.

So Today we wish Ethiopians a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New year.

NB: #Ethiopia is still in the year 2015
Note Also That: The Orthodox Church continue to use the Julian Calendar.

Seems Jesus was born on many days!

Christ is born!

The day, period and time is the same only the calendars differ, Gregorian and Julian. Should I enlighten you more?

AntiChristian:

Ubenedictus:

Repeating same question you asked on Oct 16, 2021

The Bible offers few clues on the birth of Jesus Christ. Celebrations of Jesus’ Nativity are not mentioned in the Gospels or Acts; the date is not given, not even the time of year. The Biblical reference to shepherds tending their flocks at night when they hear the news of Jesus’ birth ( Luke 2 : 8 ) might suggest the spring lambing season; in the cold month of December, on the other hand, sheep might well have been pen.


This stands in sharp contrast to the very early traditions surrounding Jesus’ last days. Each of the Four Gospels provides detailed information about the time of Jesus’ death. According to John, Jesus is crucified just as the Passover lambs are being sacrificed. This would have occurred on the 14th of the Hebrew month of Nisan, just before the Jewish holiday began at sundown (considered the beginning of the 15th day because in the Hebrew calendar, days begin at sundown). In Matthew, Mark and Luke, however, the Last Supper is held after sundown, on the beginning of the 15th. Jesus is crucified the next morning—still, the 15th.

There is another way to account for the origins of Christmas on December 25: Strange as it may seem, the key to dating Jesus’ birth may lie in the dating of Jesus’ death at Passover.

Around 200 C.E. Tertullian of Carthage reported the calculation that the 14th of Nisan (the day of the crucifixion according to the Gospel of John) in the year Jesus died was equivalent to March 25 in the Roman (solar) calendar.9 March 25 is, of course, nine months before December 25; it was later recognized as the Feast of the Annunciation—the commemoration of Jesus’ conception. Thus, Jesus was believed to have been conceived and crucified on the same day of the year. Exactly nine months later, Jesus was born, on December 25.


This is how New year arose;

since you agreed with me that your prophet Muhammad was not circumcised no how you will know that a Circumcision is after EIGHT DAYS.. From December 25th to January 1st is how many days??

Luke 2:21

And when eight days were completed for the circumcision of the Child, His name was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

Is this what you're asked?

It's simple! December 25 is not written in the Bible. How was it derived?

I hope January 14th is their new year.

I wish to appreciate and commend Obasanjo for leading the recent peace negotiations which led to ceasefire between the govt and Tigray rebels in Ethiopia. They can celebrate their Christmas in peace time.

February is China's new year too.
They frustrated me 2 years hack. I bought something on Aliexpress not knowing they would be on break for new year in February. It took them weeks before they eventually shipped my precious product, something that shouldn't ordinarily take more than 48hrs.
Beware of February on aliexpress o, guys..

Ethiopia... One of the places mentioned in the Bible that first received the gospel. If a man can read the Book of Isaiah, and by reading alone, developed such a great passion to know who the Prophet was talking about, how much more we that have the opportunity, both to read and hear the interpretations of the Bible.

Read the Bible.
Understand the Bible.
Digest the Bible.
Live the Bible.

Happy Sunday.

We understand

Ethiopians calendar may be behind but they're not not economically behind.

If you want to be behind in your home, in your work, in your finances and in your happiness, marry a woman you did not disvirgin.

Fvck any girl you want but when it comes to marriage, find a virgin woman and marry. Only her deserves your love and devotion.

Happy christmas to Orthodox christians.

Merry Christmas to them. This is what I enjoy about life, diversity. Give a message to five thousand humans and they will translate it into five hundred thousand meanings.

You should be more worried about why your prophet was hallucinating to the extent he even gave you "some satanic verses".

Ethiopian are in better position to know better,

From the picture above their dressing look more like muslims.
