ericgold: I don't really know why people are just so blind to see the truth here,am not a fan of kumuyi but I do share the fact that xmas is unscriptural. A constitution narate the rules and regulation governing a society right? Why the bible guide us christains and if dt is true where have you seen jesus while on earth,tht he celebrated his Bday okay if u say that maybe it just to celebrate him,what about after his death? Did his disciples celebrated his bday Tell me if u see anywhere in the bible that says Jesus or his disciples celebrated his bday? Me too want to learn and knw....jesus said celebrate my death not my birth,the only feast he instituted was the feast of passover I.e the lords supper(check matt 26:26-29).and its every first day of the week he says we shud remember HIM..but ur so called pastor dis days don't knw dt,they only preach what will enrich dem financially and otherwise... Be warned for God is not mocked.

wasco8: We are all human and therefore cannot be perfect including Kumuyi and all
those who see themselves as absolutely pure. Everything about this world is not
in the bible. You are free to add whatever you want to introduce to the world
community to it. Xmas is celebrated all over the world and observed to promote
the religious psyche in all of us annually with festivities. If you choose not to
celebrate Xmas, you can do so. It is a choice and please do not try to impose
your idea on me. If it is a sin because it is not in the bible, let it be. I join the
with the rest of the world to share the festivities to enjoy with family, friends
and neighbors.. The original Catholic church started the celebration centuries
ago. Kumuyi could go and confront them and iron out their differences.

dozymars: If Christmas day was not marked as a day to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ who will remember that he was born for the reason we all know now.

How effective can the reason for his birth be passed from Generation to Generation if not through Christmas celebration.

Whether he was born on 25th december or not, What matters is that a day has been set to remember and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ just as we celebrate his resurrection on Easter day.

flames77: pls can som 1 tell me were in the bible christ wrote for us to be celebrating his birth?, just a question o, no offence.

vlarge: Is this what we want to ague about now, Christmas celebrations? What does it matter? How does God see you as an individual? How much love have you shown to you neighbor? How much have you denied yourself to put a smile on the needy's faces? How much glory have you brought to Gods name. STOP all these vain arguments and ideologies, go out there and in your own little way please the most high and beneficent God.

oshytayman: well, he had never said anything on xmass before. Now that he researched into it n discovered it's wrong, he dare not honour any xmass invitation again. We learn everyday n God opens our eyes to divine facts every now n then. Just decide which one u want. He is not forcing any boy...God bless u!

voltron:

for your Benefit the corrupted History of the Bible has you bound to Hell. sadly

bamysquare: I think this generation ought to be grateful to God for giving us a man like Pastor WF Kumuyi who is so bold to declare the truth as it is, not minding whose ox is gored. He is known for his absolute firmness on issues that any heavenly-mindedfellow should not be ignorant of, irrespective of the stance of the society. He is not known to be men-pleasers but rather, a God pleaser.

kennyamusan: and give ma a scrioture dat says 'Do not Celebrate CHRIST'?

emmasege: This is why I am not 100% a fan of any of these prominent ministers of the gospel in Nigeria. They seem to make so many contradictory statements often times either in words or in actions, such that any dogmatic follower of theirs would have fallen into error b4 he/she ever realised that. Are we talking about the same Pastor Kumuyi that was a guest preacher at the National (CAN-organised) Christmas carol held at the National Ecumenical center some 2/3 years ago, with the Deeper Life choir fully participating at the event.
As a protestant Christian, I am fully in support of any tradition that proclaims and reminds people that Jesus was born into this world so that the world could be reconciled to God.
A better way of challenging the celebration of Christmas especially in the western world should have been: "There is no point celebrating Christmas without Christ". This should be the message of Deeper Life and other opponents of Christmas to the world and not by outrightly condemning a tradition that still in a way reminds some nations (e.g. USA, UK etc) of their Christian heritage.

rufychuks:
This is the best explanation anyone can ever give. Most places that were utterly diabolic in the east were converted by showing that God is greater than their idols. Most churches are built on evil forests. Does this make that church evil? Definitely not! Instead, it resets the heart of the villagers to turn to the true God. The love exhibited around the world during christmas cannot be compared to any other religion's celebration. Anyone who hates christmas hates christ!

Advans:
Dear Christians, Stop celebrating roman god called mars! DEC 25 is a date assigned for its celebration not d birthday of Jesus.

Just did some research on it now, I think Christ was not actually born on the 25th, dat day is linked to pagan idol worship....
