The Difference Between Christmas And Xmas by Miratopaz(m): 9:38am On Dec 22, 2021 |
The difference between the word *CHRISTMAS* and the word *X-MASS.* CHRISTMAS is combination of two words: *Christ and Mass.* Before Christ was born, many years ago, 25th Dec used to be *PAGAN'S day for SACRIFICES.* Later in the year 533 AD Constantine, the head of the then Roman Church which is today the Roman Catholic, changed the day from *pagan's day of* *sacrifices to* *Jesus Christ's birth commemoration.* He called the day *THE MASS FOR CHRIST* *ie CHRISTMAS* 1. CHRIST in Hebrew means, *The Anointed One* or *The Chosen One.* 2. MAS in Greek means *A Big Gathering* *of People* Thus CHRISTMAS means *The Gathering of* *People of Christ,* *(His Followers/Disciples)* Then, where did the word *X-MASS* come from? Be ware!! Its believed that after the day of gathering of Christ's Followers *{CHRISTMAS},* *became famous and respected worldwide,* *Atheists & Antichrists decided to change it by* *removing the name Christ for an X to mean* *that there is no Christ.* It changed the meaning by reading X-MASS i.e to mean *"there is no gathering* *of Christ's Followers."* *Merry CHRIST-MAS* *& NOT X-MAS* X is often used to designate a person *thing/factor,* *whose true name is* *unknown/withheld.* *It's used to take out* *excise/cancel words.* "X" has nothing to do with *"Christ"* *"The Anointed One,"* Let's not replace *Christ with "X"* Therefore as a Christian, *don't use X-MAS but* *CHRISTMAS.* You might have made that mistake last year by wishing people *X-Mass* instead of *CHRISTMAS*. Our Father in heaven is a lovely Father and a merciful one at that. Why don't you share this message across to others. God bless you as you help and join in correcting this error. MERRY CHRISTMAS. |

Miratopaz:There is no difference except an imagined one. The holiday is a pagan holiday and should be accepted as such, this since Jesus Christ did not order His followers to celebrate any holidays in His name. |
