Christmas began in the fourth century when church officials chose to honor the birth of Jesus but several customs we’ve come to associate with the holiday actually evolved from ancient Pagan traditions celebrating the winter solstice. Historian Kenneth C. Davis is the best-selling author of the “Don’t Know Much About” series. He joins “CBS This Morning” to break down the unexpected origins of some of our most well-known Christmas traditions.

Many many are aware, but many many really just don’t care
Not true it is older than that
😂PEOPLE KISS UNDER MISSLE TOE..
William Federer and Ace Collins has more info on Christmas 🎄🎁
Just religions copying wholesale and claiming traditions as their own 😆
Yet, none of these traditions come from the Bible and the Bible warns us to not worship or do things as the pagans.
Fake news. This is pseudo-history
No surprise
Jesus Christ is LORD!!!
Worthy to be praised, so worthy. Give your heart 🤗 to Jesus Christ. 🙌🙌🙌
Come on people it is a reason why celebrating Christmas was illegal. It's just like finding different ways of justifying a lie to make it appear to be more truthful. A lie is a lie! Stop justifying something because it makes you feel good even though it's wrong.✌🏾
Christianity wiped out the pagan Europeans and absorbed the pagan traditions. Cultural appropriation by Christianity as usual.
Great video plenty of information, I learned a lot!
This old guy have no idea what he is talking about. He is watering down this great abomination!
Hail Skadi.
Deut. 12:30-31 30 be careful not to be ensnared by their ways after they have been destroyed before you. Do not inquire about their gods, asking, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.” 31You must not worship the LORD your God in this way, because they practice for their gods every abomination which the LORD hates.
God has Commandments for us to obey…NOT a religion with 48,000 denominations.
Christ is GOD…see Isaiah 9:6… the Child born/Son given…His title is Mighty God and Everlasting Father…
Christ's gospel of the Kingdom=obey God's commandments… is the opposite of the fake "apostle" Paul's "gospel"=die to God's law=(Commandments)…and be saved by grace….Paul is the tare seed sower of Matt.13:25, and the sand foundation of Matt.7:27…Paul's lawless gospel is the reason for Believers being rejected in Matt.7:23 as workers of inequity…heads up precious ones. Dump Paul. Obey Christ alone…for a happily ever after.
Jesus was born on the Holy set long before he came. The Bible says "he was the word. The word became flesh and tabernacled among men". He was born during the feast of tabernacles. That is in fall, we decorate them and put up lights.
Islam is and said the truth…and matter of fact…. adam, abraham, musa and jezus were all muslims… its about the idialogy… so altho the term muslim didnt agsist yet….the true idialogy, the good one survived in Islam
Read Jeremiah 10
My parents won't be seeing me around for holidays anymore i tried telling them these are pagan evil holidays and they chose not to listen I'll still visit but not on holidays or even birthdays,birthdays are bad to I don't celebrate them I'm forced to
APOCOLYPTO CHAN Has the truth about Christmas….
And Jewish ( they would know as they keep perfect records of everything!) SEPTEMBER 14th (unless I'm mistaken may be 18th)!!!
Why I don't celebrate pagan holidays
Wow. Who’d ever think they’d be bringing out their inner pagan celebrating Jesus Birthday. I should’ve questioned why folks lie to their kids about Santa toys.
And still so called Christians turn a blind eyes… and promote xmas or dec 25.
Watch this video. Very informative on Christmas.

Peace be upon those who follow guidance
It is amazing. These Christians now know that celebrating Christmas is an unbelieving doctrine that people used to adhere to before Christianity, and yet they celebrate it.
Isaiah 42-20
0 Look a lot and do not notice. The ears are open, and he will not hear.
Likewise, Jesus, peace be upon him, will tell them to the Christians on the Day of Resurrection, and this is a shameful thing for them
Matthew 7
21 “Not everyone says to me: O Lord, O Lord! He enters the kingdom of heaven. Rather, he who does the will of my Father who is in the heavens. 22 Many will say to me on that day: O Lord, O Lord! Did not we prophesy in your name, and in your name did we cast out devils, and in your name did we make many powers? 23 Then I would state to them: I never knew you! Depart from me, you doers of iniquity
But it is ridiculous and a shame that you see at the same time some Muslims celebrating with them. And God, may God Almighty and His Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, commanded us and forbade us to follow them in their idolatrous and polytheistic creed. Whoever contradicts the words of our Lord and our honorable Messenger, beware that you are one of those who are punished by loss and severe torment.
14 And whoever disobeys God and His Messenger and transgresses his boundaries, he will bring him a fire to abide therein, and he will have a humiliating punishment.
42 On that day those who disbelieved and disbelieved who disbelieved in the Messenger, had the land been settled in them, and did not conceal God a word
65 So do not, by your Lord, not believe until they judge you, as they have trees among them, and then they shall not find in themselves the blame of what is decreed.
115 And whoever gives the Messenger longs after it becomes clear to him the guidance and follows the path of the believers, he will deliver what he is entrusted with.
My Muslim brother, but be with these successful and righteous people
69 And whoever obeys God and the Messenger, those with whom God has blessed are the prophets, the truthful, the true martyrs, and the righteous.
Except for that December 25 had already long been established, at least from the early 3rd century, as the day to celebrate Christ's birth. It wasn't made the official date of Sol Invictus by the Romans until the early 4th century. Early Christians already had a tradition that Christ was conceived on the day he was crucified, uniting his death with his birth. That day was March 25. Add 9 months to that and you get December 25 as his date of birth.
It's was against the law to celebrate X-mas in the 1560"s
Oh C'Mon Norah u know
Christmas Eve ✨
Silent night,
Holy night;
All is well,
All is right;
Come,
Ye all Christians,
I'll give you a sign;
Your Morning Star is here,
Shining bright;
Angel of darkness,
Angel of light;
Deceiving the masses,
All day and night.
Reigning high,
Worship nigh;
Lucifer's here,
Arms open wide;
I am the christ,
Born on this night;
Celebrate joyfully,
I'm right by your side;
You're serving me well,
Observing my lies;
Teaching your children,
All my desires.
Sleep children,
sleep and believe.
Sleep children,
sleep children.
Sleep.

Idolatry comes in many and various forms. Idolatry is a sin. Says God.
Paganism is a term first used in the fourth century by early Christians for people in the Roman Empire who practiced polytheism……Hinduism follow the Polytheism…..

He says “Christmas is about bringing out your inner pagan”
Yet before he begins his discussion he wishes them “Merry Christmas”
Pagan fool
You have a fine way of neglecting the commandments of God while holding on to the traditions of men… ~Author…(I think you know)
Jeremiah 10:2 Thus sayeth the Lord, learn not the way of the heathen.
This explosive revelation will not be accepted by many. People aren't hearing this, but pastors know: Christmas was adopted from pagans, and Yahusha was not born on December 25th. Yahuah is our Alahim, and He became flesh to reconcile us to Himself, shedding His own precious blood to redeem us completely (Acts 20:28). Those who have pledged themselves to Him in immersion do not continue to sin against Him, otherwise they will will receive the judgment we read about at Hebrews 10. The Galatians were turning back to their former patterns, living as pagans (birthday cakes & wishes to the queen of heaven, special days, and all their highly esteemed holidays). They were turning away from the Truth, and were backsliding into the weak and miserable principles their parents had taught them. Today's pastors, teachers, and parents have all embraced these things, and train children to do the same. Who can stand before Yahusha when He comes to end all the idolatry we inherited from our fathers? Only His pure bride will be safely protected from the reapers as they burn the weeds first, then gather the wheat. Psalm 91 tells us we will see fiery wrath poured out on 10,000 at our right hand, but it will not come near our tent. The plagues are here, and the fire comes next. We're not getting this warning from the majority of teachers; just more egg trees.
The Gods are with us

▪ Jesus did not flee to Egypt when he was a baby.
▪LEVITICUS 12:2-3
Jesus was circumcised when he was 8 days old
▪LEVITICUS 12:1-8
40 days after giving birth to Jesus, the Mosaic law required Mary to give 1 young lamb as her purification offering and 1 bird as her sin offering.
🐑 + 🐦
Mary was VERY POOR and could not afford to buy a lamb, so the law allowed her to substitute a bird in place of the lamb.
🐦+ 🐦
If Mary had been in possession of the gold, frankincense and myrrh, she would been obligated to buy the more expensive lamb, but instead, the 2 birds she offered met God’s approval. (Luke 2:24)
🌹 Joseph and Mary stayed in Bethlehem about 6 weeks before returning to Nazareth.
▪LUKE 2:39

Jesus was also a manmade character based on pagan aspects he is an adaptation of Horus an Egyptian God and there is another thing you didn’t know is that any religion that needs blood sacrifices is a pagan belief and superstition.
All religions and all there holidays are manmade nonsense used to control the human species and keep them docile.
I’m Christian and I do not celebrate Christmas or easter or anything really. I celebrate my salvation through Christ.
Y'all need to stop judging. If people want to celebrate Christmas, that's them.
"Passion for truth" and then delivers half truths mingled with lies. Not so much integrity here. Which Bible are you quoting from? It is certainly NOT the exact translation of the words of God. You're stealing someone else's intellectual property when you quote words from a Bible that has an international copyright, without the legal notice of copyright.
