What is Christmas?

Christmas was traditionally a Christian festival celebrating the birth of Jesus, but in the early 20th century, it also became a secular family holiday, observed by Christians and non-Christians alike.

Most of the decorations or items used to signify Christmas, like Christmas trees does not actually have anything to do with Christianity but more from its pagan roots and history. Today it is more commercial, gifts, lights, parties, family time and so on.

By the way, I’m a traditionalist and I celebrate Christmas.

As a non Christian, why do you celebrate Christmas?

Because Christmas, Santa clause, spreading cheer and all of it has nothing to do with the real Bible. It's a pagan celebration

JESUS is the Reason for the Celebration of Christmas!

No Matter How the World Inhabitants try to Pretend, the World knows JESUS!
The World and its. Inhabitants can pretend to be this or that , but they Know JESUS is LORD.

Even those who claim not to know GOD, once they encounter danger, the first thing you hear From them is JESUS!!

Anywhere you are, abeg Celebrate the Birth of The KING OF Kings

I think you mean birth of Jesus? That’s different from Christmas though because he wasn’t born on Christmas Day.

we claim to follow Bible principles as Christians, but did you see how a little question flood you on the ground, celebrating what is not in the Bible, I rest my case, a law initiated by a man.
