Answer 1

Some even claim he was born closer to the date of Easter than Christmas. There is no true date that we know is his birthday. The reason we celebrate Christmas now is that it is close to the Winter Solstice, and in the days of the early church, this was a great way to recruit new members to Christianity from the Pagan faiths.

Take a course or two in theology and early Christianity. All is not leaarned off of a web page.

Honestlty i don't care where it came from, most people today eqaute Christmas with the birth of Jesus.the reason for the season is what you make it. Christians around the world have made Christ, hence the word Christmas the center of the holiday season. And I'm sure God doesn't mind that we remember His son's birth a little late, the fact that we do it all probably warms his Holy heart.I love the Christmas and Easter season...whether we are celebrating it on time or not ..just as long as we celebrate to two greatest days in the history of the world.

Answer 3

March 17 actually...
historians have studied the astrology and say he really was born March 17, and the year was wrong too.. but I cant remember what the correct year is...

anyhow the date of Christmas was chosen by early Christians in a way to cover up a pre existing Pagan holiday known as Saturnalia.. most traditions (including the tree and give exchange) have pagan origins...
so infact most Christians are celebrating a Pagan holiday...

An clever individual is surely able to ignoring the commercialism. Christians could have a good time in accordance to their ideals, which they'd have exceeded directly to their babies with God's help. A Christian kin knows that the financial Christmas brings no glory to God and is disrespectful and vulgar. for as lengthy as Christians pass out and spend, spend, consume, drink and be merry basically because of the fact the non-believers do the non-believers will in no way understand the actual meaning of Christmas. Christmas Day could start up in Church, if that's humanly available to the guy, and the day spent in kin fellowship changing small, humble presents in remembrance of the reality that presents have been given to the Messiah born in extremely humble environment. Our nutrition on that day prefer be little or no diverse from the different day. can we easily should be ill later on? we would desire to constantly provide thank you for the nutrition set in the previous us, the presents which our significant different and young ones have exchanged with us and maximum of prepared concerning the reality that God GAVE us His Son. additionally, the place it rather is available, we would desire to constantly grant the affection of Jesus to others, noticeably those worse of than ourselves who may be spending Christmas on my own and, probably, homeless. there are a number of procedures wherein we are in a place to help human beings on Christmas day and, in keeping with possibility, after that, we are in a place to start assisting those human beings on a greater familiar foundation.

Answer 5

Deuteronomy 29:29 says the secret things belong to God but those things revealed belong to us that we might carry out his will.

The birth of Jesus is secret and belongs to God only.

The first century Christians did not celebrate any birthdays because the celebratiuon of birthdays is pagan and is against biblical teachings.

If God had wanted us to celebrate Christ's birthday he would have commanded it and revealed the day.

Answer 6

Celebrating birthdays is rooted in superstition and false religion, The early chrisitans never celebrated birthdays as they associated them with false religion, so they certainly would not have celebrated jesus birth...after all what had jesus accomplished on his birth, is the date recorded in the bible? did jesus command the disciples to honor that day of his birth no!! but his death is recorded he did command them to memoralise his death as it was at his death that he accomplished what he had set out to to. Customs and Traditions of Israel observes: “The celebration of birthdays has been borrowed from the practices of other nations, as no mention is made of this custom among Jews either in The Bible, Talmud, or writings of the later Sages. In fact, it was an ancient Egyptian custom.”

Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the Church. Irenaeus and Tertullian omit it from their list of feasts.” When apostate Christians began to fall away to pagan practices, Tertullian complained: “By us, who are strangers to Sabbaths, and new moons and festivals, once acceptable to God, the Saturnalia [and other pagan feasts] are now frequented, gifts are carried to and fro, . . . and sports and banquets are celebrated with uproar.”—Gal. 4:10, 11; Col. 2:8.

In an effort to gain pagan converts the Roman Catholic clergy in the fourth century after Christ took in this pagan Saturnalia on December 25 and sponsored it as the “mass of Christ” or “Christ-mass.” Christmas, therefore, is nothing more than a carbon copy of the pagan Saturnalia. This is generally admitted by historical and religious scholars. Says a world history, On the Road to Civilization, page 164: “The feast of Saturn, the Saturnalia, was a winter festival which lasted a week beginning on the twenty-fifth day of December, and was celebrated with dancing, the exchanging of gifts, and the burning of candles. The Saturnalia was later taken over by the Christians as their Christmas, and given a new significance.”

Elaborating on the customs of the Saturnalia, the New Americanized Encyclopedia Britannica, 1900, Vol. IX, page 5236, says: “Saturnalia . . . celebrated on the 19th . . . lasted seven days. The time was one of general joy and mirth. The woolen fetters were taken from the feet of the Image of Saturn, and each man offered a pig. During the festival schools were closed. . . . Gambling with dice, at other times illegal, was practiced. All classes exchanged gifts, the commonest being tapers and clay dolls. These dolls were especially given to children. Varro thought that these dolls represented original sacrifices of human beings (children to the ‘Infernal God’).”—Jer. 32:34, 35.

Answer 7

first of all most Christians do realize Christmas is perhaps not Christ's Birthday. We cannot definitivly say that it is or is not. The Bible does not record Christ actually day of birth. That is however not so important. We can use Christmas for good though. My family and I use that day to be thankful for all the Lord has Graced upon us. and to share and love with our families in the name of Jesus Christ

Answer 8

Petition to change the calendar then. You can be a devout Christian and realize how history has changed the dates.

Answer 9

When doesn't really matter to me, just the fact that we have set aside one day that we can all come together and celebrate His birth.

Answer 10

Dear, Christmas is held within one's heart if you believe in Jesus. Don't make such a fuss over it. We don't know the Lord's true birthdate.
