Do you believe that Jesus Christ was born December 25?

Answer 1

I used to believe 100% that December 25 was the birthday of Jesus Christ until I read something disproving it. This put me in doubt about the date but there is neither new date nor proof given about His actual birthday.

Anyway, as Christian, I respect December 25 as His birthday, and we must always be with Him in all the other days of the year that could be His birthday.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

no the place interior the bible does it supply Jesus start date he died while he became into 33 a million/2 on Nisan 14 which coinsides with march or april of our calendar which ability he would have been born in late sept or early october do learn you will discover that interior the bible the shepherds have been nonetheless interior the fields while he became into born they are not interior the fields in december Luke 2:8-11 shows that shepherds have been interior the fields at night on the time of Jesus’ start.

Answer 3

I believe this is the day that is the official celebration of Christmas. I think people need a reason to have hope and Christmas gives us this hope. We have to believe we were put here for a reason. Life and the Universe are too complex for the human mind to comprehend, so faith takes over and helps us rationalize our existence and our purpose. The birth of Christ is certainly a reason for hope in a life after death.

Answer 4

Anyone that does needs some history lessons. December 25th was celebrated as the birthday of Mithra long before Jesus was born.

Answer 5

No, that's just the day the church set aside to celebrate the birth of Jesus the Messiah, God-with-us.

Answer 6

No it wasn't
December 25th used to be the most black-magic, evil, and day of Hell but we celebrate Christ's mass on that day to cover it up. so now nobody knows about that witch-crafted holiday.
I know you probably don't believe me but its true
Also, Christ was born probably sometime around July (Christmas in July lol)

Answer 7

No ..it was chosen as that date to coincide with the pagan celebrating winter solstice. (and OMG to the brainwashed guy above ..it was NOT evil ..for goodness sake that is the most ignorant thing ive ever heard)

Answer 8

OH i know this one. No, we only celebrate his birthday on December 5th because that's when the ppl who worshiped the sun celebrated it then and that's the only time they could because the other ppl just thought they were worshiping the sun. Or else they would be killed. Merry Christmas!

Answer 9

I don't know if that is the exact day, but it is the day we recognize His birth. I'm just glad He was born.

Answer 10

hmm...I'm not really sure. Most of us have grown up thinking that, but when you sit down and try to do the math, I'm sure it's a different date.
So yes (give or take a week or two! lol)
