jikins:ok, so it's the date as a lie you see problem with? To answer that simple question, nobody can say Dec 25th is the date of his birth, that's why I said earlier that it's just a date to honour his birth. Coptic Christian's in Egypt use January, there is no big deal, I can choose a date myself too but i prefer to follow the more universal agreed date. The meaning of Christmas still remains celebration of Christ birth not Jay z birth or Venus birth, so whether western culture entered into it or not is not my concern, i simply know who Christ is by the Bible and the life he lived that would please him to celebrate him 5 Likes 1 Share |

PopSmoke: This shows you don't understand who Jesus is/was. Just as human beings are in 3 dimensions: spirit, soul, and body, God is also in three dimensions: Father, Sin,and the Holy Spirit. One of the dimensions/beings of God came to earth in human form. And as every human, he was given a name, which is JESUS. He also had other names such as Emmanuel. Some people even bore the name Jesus or it's variants before Him, e.g Joshua. It is improper for anyone bare the name of God, Eli, Elshaddai, Elohim, etc. But people have been bearing the name 'Jesus' before and after Jesus the Christ. |

PopSmoke: you can name your child Jesus but the title Christ cannot be attached to it cuz Christ means "OUR LORD".. For nigerians its a choice nt to name their child Jesus. Okay most Muslim faithful name their sons Muhammed bt they can never attach the title or phrase SAW(peace be upon him) to the child. Y is this so because it would be blasphemy. My brother i'm a devoted Christian who stay in Zamfara state and eat salah meat. Please lets let love lead us. And practice our faith in peace and tolerance with one another. Remain blessed 1 Like |

Roman catholic Nun called fatimah links with Mohamed...

IGBOSON1: Santa has nothing to do with Christianity. However, Christmas was a pagan festivals Christian's converted to celebrate christ. Repentant pagans a.k.a christian choose to celebrate their new God instead of the again gods on the same day. It's a way of honoring Jesus..renouncing their old ways and submitting their ways to the new deity. Yes xmas was a pagan holiday. |

Patozorinzo: Who is no on? So many people believe this to be true. So many people have written songs stating it is true. There's even this popular Christmas carol that says as much. And children, adults sing it with reckless abandon. So who is no on again? Children are being told this is day Jesus was born in schools and classes everywhere. Many people believe it to be so. Know the difference between reality and ideology |

tunderoc: Speak for your own version of christianity oga tales by moonlight with a a touch of Netherland olofofo! Sub knowledged, self acclaimed christians (with a dash of overbloated ignorance based on little or no knowledge about the Christianity you you claim to practice) like you will always be the first to claim with Christ's death, all form of old christian practices have gone with the wind...right? Now tell me oh new generation christian, where the bible explicitly portrayed Jesus Christ whom you dumbasses claim to follow after his footsteps demanded the following IN THE NEW TESTAMENT YOU CLING TO WHEN MAKING YOUR FOOLISH CLAIMS: * Fruit of first harvest donation (Person FULL salary, entitlements and claims for one month dey waka enter church!!) * Seed sowing * Special need sowing * Anointed water sales * Dip in the pool bid * Daddy n mummy G.O's birthday taxes n levy * Mandatory tithe even on free will gifts n donations * special prayers payments Etc. You better stick to the grossly malnourished spiritual guidance you keep getting from your daddy G.Os and leave others to their firm beliefs!!! |

Mikehot: I have peace within and no one can take it away How do i show dem love by rejecting their food. As long as i am doing it in the company of brethren who see nothing wrong. I do not partake in the worship. The meat does not defiles. It is the heart intention to affirm an idol. I believe Apostle paul said in his letters 1st corinthians 10:18-28. Lastly all things are lawful but not all tinx are helpful. Let no one seek his own good bt d good of his neighbour. So if eating salah meat publicly will cause my brother to lose faith, i would politely decline. So as i say my brethren in the north see nothing wrong. As we dont affirm the sacrifice and the meat does not defile one |
