To All Christians everywhere:
Christ may not have been actually born on December 25th,
However,
His wonderful conception took place
about this time, December 25 5 B.C.-
as history suggests His actual birth
around September 29th, 4 B.C.
We have much to be Merry about,
as Christ came down to this earth,
and was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
This is what we celebrate!
Let's Keep Christ in Christmas
and Our Joy!

It appears without a shadow of a doubt that the day assigned to the Birth of the Lord, December 25, was the day on which He was "begotten of the Holy Spirit" and His birth took place on the 15th of Ethanim, September 29, thus making beautifully clear the meaning of John 1:14, "The Word becam flesh".
There is very definite proof of this date which any bible scholar knows and the proof is too numerous to go much into detail here.
The earliest allusion to December 25 (modern reckoning) as to the date for the Nativity is found in the Stromata of Clement of Alexandria about the beginning of the 3rd century. That "Christmas" was a pagan festival long before the time of our Lord is beyond doubt.

There are lots of theories about when the historical Jesus was born. It ultimately doesn't really matter. Because we'll never know, the Church by tradition celebrates it on December 25 (yeah, I know, 'cos we were trying to convert pagans). We also celebrate his conception on March 25, the feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
For what it's worth, September 29 is the feast of St Michael and All Angels.

Catholic. Jesus is human and that humanity won't be able to have come from God. Jesus is God and that's no longer of human commencing place. a twin of God is nonsense. God has no DNA. Incarnation explains this, yet you're asking approximately theory. Hmmm. ... i've got under no circumstances heard the genetics of theory stated so any thought that dovetails with incarnation could desire to be superb. all the DNA of Jesus come from Mary. not one of the divinity comes from Mary. in spite of the certainty that she is the mummy of God, she is human. there is no longer something divine approximately her. the 2d individual of the Trinity existed until now his incarnation. that's what that be conscious poem that prefaces the Gospel of John is approximately. All it is Trinity stuff nevertheless and not theory. theory could desire to dovetail between Incarnation and Trinity. in spite of the shown fact that evidently which you attempt to physique of recommendations trinity by way of theory. it rather is a pretend initiate if the trinity existed forever until now introduction. Oh I see----the place did the X chromosome of Jesus come from? Even the Biologist Teilhard DeChardin did no longer convey that up. it is an thrilling puzzle. i do no longer see any significance to it. God incarnate is a much bigger puzzle than the place did the X come from. the place did the haploid that became Jesus get an X????? I punt. comparable place as mana and water from a struck rock. a totally fertilized male egg became into shed by Mary's ovary. i ponder whether it became into the main suitable or the left?

I don't know where you get your info, but it is not correct. I believe if you do an in depth study, you will find that Jesus was conceived in the month of September and was born around the month of May or was conceived in August and born in April.
According to the scriptures, Jesus was born within a spring month.

their is no way you can know that for sure I have heard this theory before and it is based on when John the Baptist kicked in the womb. I just wish you could see the truth and don't worry about christmas It is no big deal to give up the traditions of man , that is in the bible for sure. don't be fooled by another man made lie it is just a stumbling block

I'm not worried about when Christ was born or conceived. The fact that it happened is enough for me. As for Christmas celebration, keep Christ in it and I'm o-kay with it even if it is really a pagan holiday.

I don't believe anyone knows when Jesus was born. It would have been prior to king Herod's death.
