True the Angle announced the birth of a savior... was the actual date giving? Did any of his disciples celebrated Christ birth? With the kind of loss and wild parties associated with this season,can you link a savior to it? Did the Bible instruct believers to celebrate his birth or his death?....pls read these... Luke: 22:15_20. Also lcorinthians:11:24_26. Look inward ,your kind of celebration incurred more atrocities, high rate of death, Increase in divorced when poor homes couldn't measure up! High rate of unwanted pregnancy during and after! Think again why you celebrate/worship what you know not.,.... John: 4;22. 4 Likes |

Though people say Jesus Christ wasn't born on 25th Dec, that 25th Dec was for the worship of some gods....... You know what, even if it was the day they worship satan, .... we Christian chooses to convert that date to honor Christ birthday ( Christmas). Christians has taken over the date and the devil can't do anything about it. 13 Likes 1 Share |

Eeehhh! I remember the first time I tried asking a lady out in church, after scheming for weeks and plotting my maps I didn’t have the guts to walk up to Vivian and tell it to her face, so I stylishly got her number from a friend and decided to call her up. You guys won’t believe the horrible thing I did, after days of rehearsals on what to say, I finally called her up one evening and dummest thing that could come out of my mouth was “hi, my names is Vivian, can I speak with Allison?”.. Like seriously? And she didn’t make it any easier for me; the response she gave was “sorry, Allison is not around, bye bye.” And she hung up. It was later when I replayed the brief convo in my head i realized how foolish somebody can be, how can I go and say my name is Vivian, you mean I cannot even remember my own name again? haiii, But hey, before you starting laughing at me let’s admit it, a lot of you Christian guys are like me, shy when it comes to asking a Christian lady out or initiating the conversation. The whole point is don't enter new year with that shy attitude. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This topic is presented to answer the many questions that have arised concerning end time Christian believers taking part in the festivities of the CHRISTMAS SEASON. Is the celebration of Christmas biblical? Does the birth of Jesus really fall on December 25? What about Santa Claus, gift-giving, the christmas tree, and other tinsels? Are they really biblical? INTRODUCTION CHRISTMAS originated from the word "Christ-Mass" which is a Roman Catholic tradition, a special mass performed in celebration of Christ’s birth Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the Christian Church. It was not celebrated, commemorated, or observed, neither by the apostles nor in the apostolic church — not for at least the first 300 years of church history, after Catholicism took over the first church of Rome which was originally established by Apostle Paul. It was in the year 350 A.D. that Pope Julius-I declared that Christ’s birth should be celebrated on "December 25". History reveals that the Church at Jerusalem commenced the celebration of Christmas only during 440 A.D., following the leadings of Roman Catholicism. ANCIENT HISTORY Ancient history reveals that in past ancient pagan civilizations, it is no coincidence that December 25th was also the birthday of their pagan gods. All of BABYLONIAN and ROMAN FESTIVALS were characterized by 5-7 day celebration periods of unrestrained or orgiastic revelry and licentiousness held between the 17th and the 23rd of December. December is the time of year when days began to lengthen and ancient man was blessed with a “regeneration of nature” and held an annual celebration for it. Specifically, December 25th was the Victory Festival of the “SUN-God” in the pagan Babylonian world. In the ancient Roman Empire, the same celebration can be traced back to the Roman Festival called “Saturnalia”, which honored Saturn, the harvest god, and Mithras, the god of light. They held the circus during this time of the year. Both festivals were celebrated during or shortly after the winter solstice, between the 17 th and 23rd of December. 1 Like |
