Let us analyze and study History… Christ Jesus was born in Bethlehem between the 6th to 4th year BCE during the reign of King Herod under the Roman Emperor Augustus Caesar…
During that time the Ancient Roman Calender had only 10 months… The 1st month up to the 6th month was represented by the Roman gods and goddesses' Root Names while the 7th month came from the Roman Root word SEPTA, which became SEPTEMBER, then the 8th month came from the Roman Root word OCTO, which became OCTOBER, then the 9th month came from the Roman Root word NOVI, which became NOVEMBER and finally the 10th month came from the Roman Root word DECI, which became DECEMBER.
Historians believe that Christ Jesus was born during the "10th month" (Fall Season) which at that time was called in the Ancient Roman Calendar, DECEMBER… When the Roman Emperor Augustus Caesar died in the 14th year, 1st Cent. A.D. when Christ Jesus was in His Teenage years, Emperor Tiberius succeeded the throne and added 2 more months in recognition of Julius Caesar for the 7th month called JULY, and Augustus Caesar for the 8th month called AUGUST, thus, the month of September became the 9th, October became the10th, November became the 11th and December was no longer the original 10th month but became the 12th month in which there were already SNOW in Bethlehem (Winter Season)…
When Christ was born in Bethlehem, His registered BIRTH was the 10th month (December), which was the written Roman Census at that time for Blessed Mary and St. Joseph. When Emperor Tiberius reigned in the 14th year, 1st Cent. A.D., the Roman Calendar became 12 months adding the months of July and August, thus, all born on the 10th month including Christ Jesus became the 12th month (still called December) but in Winter Season in Israel…
The Exact Birth Day of Jesus on the "10th month" (December) was lost… the Pagan Roman Empire celebrated the SUN GOD FESTIVAL every the 25th day of December (10th Month), and Christ Jesus was also born on the 10th month in Bethlehem presently December today, and since the Pagan Roman Empire accepted the Faith of Christianity in 325 A.D…. the Roman Catholic Church replaced the Pagan SUN GOD FESTIVAL into the "Holy Mass (Celebration) of Christ Jesus" commonly called today CHRISTMAS… The First Christmas in the Christian Roman Empire (United East and West Roman Empire) was celebrated on December 25, 325 A.D….
What better way to STOP the Pagan Festival was to adopt the "Birth of Christ Jesus" on the 10th Month which was presently December (the 12th month)… Analogy, if a person cheated on you, what better way to replace that person is to find another better person than the previous one, and not to have a pet animal as a replacement… the same analogy.
Another Analogy… if your Birthday falls on LEAF YEAR (February 29) does this mean you won't have your birthday each year and your age will only increase every 4 years?… or perhaps your Birthday is moving on March 1st every non-leaf year?… NOPE… your birthday will still remain on FEBRUARY but move 1 day backward, on the 28th… the same analogy…
Therefore, Christ Jesus was born in Bethlehem on the 10th month, the Fall Season of the Original December… and not the 12th month, the Winter Season of the New December.
Facts and Truth of the Matters, Historians, and Archeological Attested…
American, fake, made for profit,
Now I know real history of Christmas
Can we celebrate the original one that sounds better than presents
Santa Clause sounds an aweful lot like God
The Bible says " do not mix the Holy with the common". To those who think God doesnt mind and its where your heart is at thats important remember that the heart is decietfully wicked above all things. And Jesus spoke against traditions. When i was born again my children ( two boys) were just at that age to where christmas wasnt a huge deal to them. It still hurt my heart but i knew that i couldnt celebrate it as a holiday ( Holy-day) anymore. It was a sacrifice that was a no brainer, but it was still hard. I still bought them gifts. But as far as celebrating it, no way. Just look at the world and how everyone you know celebrates it. Its obviously common if not pagan
So why was shepherds tending their sheep if he was born in winter in which snows?
At this point im not even sure Priests know what they believe in 😂
John 14:6 – “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.”
When was Yahusha Mashiack the Savoir born according to the Bible?
The word CHRIST is in Christmas. Enough said. It's about Christ! Mas means more so more of Christ! That's what Christmas is about
No evidence. Stop practicing something without knowing or evidence.
Wherever there is truth there is the lie!
Luke 2:8-14
King James Version
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
The church didnt accept it, they were forced to accept it or they were executed.
While we are all fighting about the date of Jesus's birth or the color of his skin or whether Christmas is pagan or not. Our eyes are not focused on Jesus, we are focused on division. That is not from God. Let us love one another and celebrate Jesus everyday of the year. It's in the Bible to do so. ❤❤❤❤❤
St. Nikolas Turkish? Please!
The Turks came to the current Turkey area at least 700 years after the death of St. Nikolas.
He was Greek.
WHO CARES jesus wasnt born on December. if we dont know the date then we obviously just have to pick a date to celebrate it.
😢Its all a lie😮
Good one
So Santa Claus is American?
It's very easy for us to say what the origins are and what they aren't, but does anyone have any primary sources? If you do, please cite them.
I just like Christmas because of the spirit, the food, the music-entertainment etc. It makes you feel warm and brings out the charitable side in people. I like to look at it for the good things that it brings and not try it and pick it to death.
Y
Romans kill jesus because he was black
This is a lie just as all things Christianity tells you. Do your own research people.
Pagans stole saturnalia from the Greeks Kronia. This was also not the first Christmas.
The first Christmas was the discovery of fire in celebration when lightning hit the pine tree and gave man fire, which is why they burn the Yule log and decorate the pine tree.
The Zoroastrians followed the star prophecy next to pine trees symbolizing Gods original gift to man and next to it the birth of a messiah to his people.
The only pagan connection is the fact Roman’s we’re pagan and trying to assimilate multiple cultures by keeping some pagan traditions the same. But those too you’ll (Yule) find a hidden origin to shamans who would dress up in red and white like the aminita mushroom and give people reindeer juice in exchange for food. Reindeer juice was force feeding reindeer aminita muscaria. The doors would be sealed shut by snow so they would go down the “chimney” and give a gift. The reindeer would filter out their harmful toxins so they could then cook and filter it into an elixir and consume it and go on a psychedelic journey where they would see reindeer fly. They would also leave food for the shaman in exchange for this gift. But none of this would be possible without fire,
I know this religion call Jehovah's Witnesses they don't celebrate Christmas at all because they believe that Jesus wasn't born on December 25th and they think that Christmas is a pagan holiday
Christmas Tree was a pagan ritual which then entered Christianity
Pagans worship Trees.
God created trees.
Christians worship the Creator.
Pagans worship the Creation.
Put up a 🌲.
God created it long before pagans tried to steal it.
God also created the ☀️, 🌙 and ✨, and thus created the winter solstice, but pagans tried to steal that, too.
So, if pagans say Jesus was just another pagan god, why do they reject Him? I thought pagans willingly accept all gods into their fold….
Because they know the truth.
Jesus is not just another pagan myth.
God created trees, pagans worship the tree, not the Creator, in order to deny the existence of God.
Now you know.
Christianity disproved in 3 minutes 😂
