Some pple will never cease to surprise me. Some r saying that celebration of Christmas is not worth cos its rooted in paganism since it was used as a means to abolish the pagan worship. So does that mean that anybody who watches football, table tennis,or athletics or engages himself/herself in any form of olympics is worshiping Zeus right? because olympics were done those days in athens n greece in d honor of their god zeus. I hapnd to importune a Jehova witness man with the same question buh he couldn't defend himself cos he watches football n engages in olympics. Everything must not be in d bible for it to be celebrated, because birthdays were not celebrated in d bible yet we ourselves celebratn our btdays,.........Christmas is worth d celebration coz it brings a special joy to me especially whenever I meditate on the nativity of Jesus, how He came down n was obedient to d Blessed Virgin Mary n Saint Joseph..........just think of how He was born in a manger d poorest place to give birth to someone, no wonder it was said, He was made poor that we may be Rich.........CHRISTMAS IS WORTH CELEBRATING....merry merry merry Christmas 2 u all |

I see christmas wrong. The reason the Roman catholic church placed it on dec 25 thats what makes it unacceptable. Ceaser Constatine was of pagan origin and because they wanted him to become christian,they placed Jesus birth to fit dec 25 the same day that the Sun God of Rome was been celebrated. They compromised many biblical standards just so he can be a Christian and that is so wrong. It was not a means to destroy paganism. Paganism rather was incalcuted so as the Ceaser finds Christianity acceptable. Their quest for POWER. To Jesus,his death was important and he asked that it be celebrated. If he had wanted us to celebrate his birth,he would have said so. Birthdays sprung from paganism. No one and I mean no one Compromises God's standards. He himself said,that to him obedience is better than sacrifice. A popular saying goes thus..Because everyone is doing it does not make it right! 1 Like |

Simple illustration: You like killishi alot, you enjoy eating killishi but you discover killishi is made up of raw meat and prepared mostly in very unhygienic environments with flies having their fill first but you damn the consequences and eat it all the same, then you go preaching hygiene and co yet u say you are not hypocritical you learn Christmas has a pagan origin, yet u turn a blind eye. Then you come hr to condem an idole worshiper lol were did jesus or his disciples celebrate his birthday in the bible again? 1 Like |

When I read some thing online, I begin to wonder if christians know who they really are. God gave us power over EVERYTHING on earth and beyond. Sunday is Sunday because MAN says so, 2016 will come next week because MAN says so, I will celebrate the birth of JESUS CHRIST because I as MAN have said so, you believe 25th December is pagan because you as MAN have said so. God has given us that power from the beginning of the world, glorify God with it, or the devil with it. God created 25th, not the devil, the same way HE gave me five fingers on each hand and gave me the power to use as I deem fit, but the devil has successfully deceived some people into glorifying him by making them believe that making my hand into a specific shape is devilish(a hand given me by GOD himself). The truth is that every human should in reality celebrate his/her birthday everyday, because that is what it is - birthDAY. I will be 24 years and one day old on the 20th of May 2016, this alone is enough reason to wake up everyday, worship GOD and celebrate!!. Sons of MAN, be wise and not give God's glory to the devil, it is HIS, and HIS alone, for all eternity!!. |

Rilwayne001:Why do Christians go to church on Sundays and even fellowship on other weekdays knowing fully well that the names of the weekdays including Sunday were pronounced in reference to the respect for various idol gods.Should Christians be worshiping God on a day that is named after an idol god?Saturday(a day for worshipping god of Saturn)Sunday(a day of worshipping god of the sun). |

But wait o... if celebrating his birthday was necessary, why didn't Jesus do it for himself? He really wanted us to remember His death, hence, he set the pattern. I wonder why we should be taking panadol for another person's headache! 1 Like |

xexy: The bible made us to understand that we r to celebrate his death evry first day of the week. The first day of the week in this part of the world is on sunday in another country it cn b saturday, monday, anyday as long as it is the first day of the week. If Jesus Christ wnted us to celebrate his birthday it would be stated in the bible. Jesus Christ wnted us to celebrate his death dat is why he gave us how, when, and why we should celebrate his death. |
