Of course, there are no specific Scripture references to celebrate the birth, death or resurrection of Jesus Christ, at least in literal sense. According to Romans 14, we are commanded that not to judge those who regard some days as special over other days. For this reason, although I don’t celebrate any holidays (although I am a born again Evangelical Christian), I don’t judge those who regards some days as “holy” days.

The whole purpose of the Bible is to preserve writings relevant to our salvation. The death of Christ is the means and the moment of our salvation. It sums up the entire purpose and message of the Bible. It is in fact the central event in the history of mankind.

We're not supposed to celebrate the death. We're supposed to celebrate the resurrection.

No, there isn't. There's a part about remembering him, so people who celebrate his death are a load of crap if they are basing it on words of the bible (people like to contradict themselves I guess.)

if you are wondering we are celebrating his resurrection, and ascension to heaven. Easter isn't as much of a celebration, as a remembrance of what we have done.

Of course not. Christ is not the name of a person.

We don't celebrate the death of Jesus, it is a day of rememberance of what Jesus did for us
Do you celebrate the day one of your loved ones died? I don't think so, you would remember them and think about them, same thing
