This issue of xmas gets me rather upset! Why should I be so engrossed with something that my master neither does nor asks me to do for him, when in fact, I have not finished doing what he expressly tells me to do? {Matthew 28:18-20} To all of you (the xmas fans), how many times have you tried doing what is written in that Scripture? 1 Like |

There you go. we are at it again. The truth is most people are teaching for doctrine the commandment of men. I will put Christmas into the same category of What God says versus what Men teach. A. Steps Of Salvation 1. Hear the word(Rom 10: 17) 2. Believe(Mark 16:15) 3. Repent of your sins.(Acts 2:44) 4. Confess Jesus as the Son Of God(Rom 10:9-10). 5 Water Baptism(Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16; I pet 3:21). I will dwell on Baptism. Baptism saves you.(1 Pet 3:21.) You cannot be Born Again BEFORE Water Baptism.(Your So called Men Of God do not teach this) Most Denominations today dont dwell on Water Baptism as a step towards being Born Again. People rather twist God's Command and give a wrong information on How Men are being Saved. Men say if you want to be born again: say after me. Lord Jesus, I know im a sinner. etc. Then they tell you to Join a bible believing Church. Water Baptism Saves you. John 3:3; 1 Pet 3:21 You dont Join any Church. God adds you to the Church. The Church is important in God's Plan Of Salvation.(Heb 12:23) It is Only the faithful Ones in the Church that will be saved in the end. B. Women Pastors/ Women Leading Prayers In Churches: A Pastor according to the Scripture is Only reserved for Men. 1 Tim 3:1-7 A WOMAN CANNOT BE CALLED A PASTOR. The Bible uses the word Pastor, Overseer, Bishop and Elder interchangeably in the New testament.(Based on the work) A Position Only meant for Men. He must be a Husband of One wife and not a Wife of One Husband. I am not a Male Chauvinist. I am only reminding us what God commanded through Apostle Paul. A Woman Cannot Lead in Prayers in the Church where there are Believing Men. It is A Shameful thing for a woman to lead in Prayers in Worship.( 1 Tim 2:8; 1 Cor 14:34). These are just a few examples of how men have twisted God's Law. As for Christmas, Jesus Christ whom you are Celebrating his birth commanded all his followers to Observe the Lord's Supper every Sunday(Acts 20:7; Lk 22:19: Luke 22:19: And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying,"This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me." You choose to remember Christmas- (A day Jesus Christ was not born) but You disregard the Lord's Supper(A command of Jesus to All his followers through which He should be remembered). It is a mystery that God did not reveal the day Jesus was born. Deut 29:29. The secret things(Like when Jesus was born) belong to the LORD our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law. |

flamingREED:This law are not made for christians, we are only to learn from the old testament law, in Jeremiah God gave us a NEW covenant and urged us to follow it. Paul say it plainly in 1 Cor. 8 he say an idol is NOTHING as long as you are not offended when you eat meat sacrifice to idol.we christians celebrate Christmas entirely different, the way God want us to live our life. |

Christmas is a remarkable day to celebrate the birth of Christ. Jesus mayn't be born the exact day but we all accepted to celebrate. Afterall we all attend church on Sunday which certainly was not the sabbath day but christ died and resurrected on sunday. and by his death, he purchased the salvation for mankind and redeemed man from the slavery of sin |
Re: Is Celebrating Christmas Wrong ? by vooks: 12:51pm On Dec 25, 2015 |
[size=1pt] Skills10:[/size] We commemorate his death without knowing he date or day of his death. This means we need not know his date of birth to celebrate it Romans 14:5-6 (NKJV) 5 One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks. |

vooks:Lol... sorry, I missed your reply The point I'm trying to make is this: we shouldn't pre-occupy ourselves with unnecessary pagan-rooted doctrines at the expense of more important Christ-oriented ones. Jesus was not unlettered and for me to be like him (because I am a Christian, ie. Christlike), I need to go to school while I still do the work he asked me to do. |
