I think somewhere in the bible 1 Corinthians 11:24. Jesus during the last supper. He said "do this in remembrance of me. I don't care for Christmas at all . But the death of Christ and resurection is like nothing any man has ever done and I will keep celebrating it cause that is the bases of my believe. |

Achirimma:1 Corinthians 11:24 . If you talk about Christmas being idolatry I can understand, but but we were specifically told to remember Easter . That's the bases of Christianity. |

saintmark88:are you this desperate? Because you have no answers you tend to use the word faith and that u don't care about the origins? You have deified the essence of your religion beliefs and shows that you don't know nothing about what u worship. A disgrace to Christendom. Although you profess your love for a saviour and your hero, all the image you have of him is the indoctrinated pic depicted of him In the end. You are all pagans but blind pagans |

blueseacats:How can you believe in the death and not believe in the birth?Is the death not because there was a birth?Something is amiss! By the way,as Christians we are not celebrating dates(that's what unbelievers bother and argue about).We celebrate purpose- whether it's a sunday or tuesday,December or October is not what matters. 2 Likes |

thorpido:Give me a bible quotation that hints that we should celebrate birth. Else am not interested. I believe even he himself knew that his death and resurection calls for remembrance that's why he did not forget to mention it. Since he did not mention Christmas, am out . Mind you, I did not completely disagree with the author just that I thought he would have picked Christmas instead of Easter , Jesus is a spirit and he is God, he could have rolled up into this world in any way he wanted so being born is not significant to him , in fact I think it was even a distraction that he had family members. |

thorpido:So u saying we should only remember the death and resurrection on a fixed date of a pagan holiday? When Jesus explicitly stated that we observe the Lord's supper as often as we can in remembrance of him |

Makes sense! Xmas, val, easter, etc all originated frm pagans. If d world is owned by Satan (as some usually say), wht do we do? Where were d righteous ones when d Devil took over? .....Some denominations also celebrate other occultic days *freemasons & illuminati christians... 2 Likes |

blueseacats:Matthew 2:8-11.People celebrated the birth of Jesus.Indeed Jesus didn't leave instructions about celebrating His birth or death.It was the people who chose to celebrate it and rightly so.Remember the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem?Did you Jesus say they should do it?Yet He celebrated it. If you celebrate the death and the resurrection,then you should celebrate the birth.for without the birth,there can be no death and resurrection. |

Jehovah's witnesses and their blind and lopsided interpretation of the bible. They go for assembly, don't believe in hell fire, don't believe that sunday is necessarily the Lord's day plus many other false teachings of Russell and Rutherford. Eg; 144,000 people only will go to heaven. Jehovah's witness is a false religion. Infact they are a sect! Initially they used fear and lies to win converts eg; preaching and shouting about the war of armageddon in the 70s and 80s. Nobody should take any of their members seriously. They say Christ asks us to do the memorial of his passion and death but do not believe in the same Christ that said that his apostles should forgive sins in his name. So what type of bible are they reading? They only pick parts of the bible that suits them. Femi Aribisala = a confused man who reads his bible upside down. Jehovah's witness = False religion. |

udemzyudex: A typical example of the rich man asking Abraham to send someone from the dead to counsel his brothers. The only way God is gonna speak to us is through His word, and that is where the OP based his arguments on. So it's left for you to do ur research to know more. |

thorpido:Oga, we have known this story since whites brought Christianity here, but there is no where it says "do this in remembrance of me" this statement in my opinion is the single most important statement urging Christians to celebrate Christianity not Christmas, for Christ himself did not celebrate his own birthday. 1 Like 1 Share |

1. The most important thing is for Christians to set aside (even though we should remember this daily) a day to remember the sacrifice our Lord Jesus Christ made for the entire world, and more importantly his resurrection without which the Christian faith is unfounded. Christians should be aware of people like the OP who are out there to confuse true Christians as Christ predicted. Happy Easter to all. May the power of His resurrection be manifested in our lives. |

The Truth is truly bitter! I'm just glad there are some folks in here who know the Truth, and I also thank God for those with an open mind to do more research on these facts. |

RobinHez:How do you celebrate the Lord's supper without even His birth?If He didn't die and resurrect,which is the foundation of Christianity then of what use is the remembrance of the supper? The bible says with God,a day is like unto a thousand years and a thousand years like unto a day.Did you read what Jesus said,that He is Lord of the sabbath?He is the Lord of EVERY day,even the day of pagan worship! |

RobinHez:Very serious about this! The Catholic church is the MOTHER of all churches. It is the only church which origin can be traced directly from the apostles of Jesus Christ. Note that most books of the Bible(New Testament) were written by the apostles and disciples of Jesus Christ. The scriptures was compiled and named BIBLE by the Catholic Church. Sunday became the official day of christian worship through the Catholic church. Easter was instituted by the Catholic church and every other church today is celebrating Easter. Christmas has origin from the catholic church. Even the Gregorian calendar which is the calendar we use today has its origin from the Catholic Church. Many more but think about the above first. |

Sunnycliff:I don't know who Femi is, but perhaps he needs a little more reading before publicly displaying his ignorance. Does he not know that Easter is actually called Pascha in all Christian countries except Germany and England and the countries they influenced? If you ask Italians, or Portuguese or Greeks or Middle East Christians etc, they will all tell you it is called Pascha. |
