Mr poster....Christmas Is fake..religion is scam the earlier u realize the beta for ya......God is not religious...men created religion

LuciferCatholic:




Which means that if I choose to acknowledge Jesus Christ on May 1st, the purpose of Christmas will still work?

If that is the case, it means the December 25th Christmas Day celebrations might actually be meaningless and inconsequential.

Do you know that some middle East Christians celebrate Jesus birth on January 6th?

The day you chose is not what matters but the acknowledgement of his birthd.

I will no longer dignify you with a response because you are a satanist.

The origin is pagan....Not the celebration it self....Take note....

iyamchee:


I'm not an atheist.... I'm a believer who's willing and ready to make heaven. I try my best to live according to the bible

Thank God for your life. Now go and don't acknowledge or celebrate Christmas if it's your choice but don't judge others who chose to celebrate it.

What some innocent Christians don't know is that the propaganda against Christmas emanated from the jealousy from other religions with the way it was being celebrated all over the world.

PrimadonnaO:



You're missing the point. The article isn't to prove that Jesus was born on December 25th. He already stated that Jesus most likely wasn't born on that day.

The purpose of the article, instead, is to showcase Christians' justification for choosing December 25th to celebrate our Lord and Saviour.

You are the one missing the point here.

Christians didn't choose December 25th. Emperor Constantine, a Roman pagan at that time chose it for Christians.
He imposed it as a law.

In other words, a pagan defined Christianity's most important day.


So what justification are you talking about?

alBHAGDADI:
Of course you can. Now, since you can, why are you criticizing those who chose December 25th? Don't you know that there might also be a god June 12 is dedicated to? e.g MKO Abiola

is abiola a god..I am not understanding

Dantee005:
The origin is pagan....Not the celebration it self....Take note....

Read Exodus 32:4-10 and you would see that the origin matters so much to God.

alBHAGDADI:

God bless you! It is far more sensible to celebrate Christmas as a Christian than not celebrating. Jesus remain the only reason for the season.

johnmba:


Are u talking of jewish festivals Are we jews

If it wasn't for the Torah, there will be no Christianity

You're a believer and yet you believe that some pagan god can lay claim to the days of the week? A day that was created by God himself? How do you think Paul made converts in Athens? He used an unknown idolised statue to convert a lot of pagan worshippers right on the very day of their celebration..

iyamchee:


Jesus Christ wasn't born on December 25th and also didn't ask you to celebrate it....

You assume Jesus Christ is evil and like Judas Iscariot you want to claim more righteousness than Jesus by forbidden rubbing the alabaster oil on Jesus feet.

Nobody get angry for being celebrated out of pure love and more also the heart we celebrate with is what Jesus Christ will Judge.

Abel offered an acceptable sacrifice while Cain also offered a sacrifice but God who judges the heart of men and women counted Cain's sacrifice unworthy.

Allow God to be the judge. If our hearts condemn us not, we will always have boldness before the alter of the most high God both in prayers, worships and fellowships

JessetariahMD:

is abiola a god..I am not understanding

He's a god to some people. I can bet that 100s of years from now some people will take June 12 to be the day of a good called abiola. Perhaps that's how pagans arrived with their December 25th stuff.

MrPresident1:
At Christmas we celebrate the birth of the SUN of GOD, who is the son of man, and he is the SON of GOD. He is the Sun of the world

Jesus Christ, the great and mighty and fiery warrior-king, who will come with thunder, is the Sun of God

2 Samuel 22:14-15
14 The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.

Psalm 18:13
The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.

How does this relate to Sun god and what op posted?

Any Christian that fails to celebrate Christmas is confuse and disgusting.

alBHAGDADI:

Yes.
December 25th & January 6th are disputed days of Christmas by Christians globally.
Which proves again that Christmas is man made.

Again, you have made this warped assertion that the day chosen does not matter. This contradicts the very essence of Christmas.
You are essentially saying Jesus Christ's birthday has not been rightly celebrated in 1682 years.



Calling me a Satanist, Evil Spirit, Atheist etc does not prove anything.
We are educated here.
Give us facts!

Hmmmm...... Christmas is pagan period..... not because of what Jehovah Witnesses say/believe. Why was December 25 chosen as Christ's birthday?...why is his birthday not a one day celebration?...why the 12 days of Christmas?....why the Christmas tree?....why the procession and singing of carols?...all rooted in pagan celebrations. In a nutshell....Christian's didn't want to be left out of the end of year pagan festivities so they stuck Christmas in the midst to have a cover to take part in the celebrations. Even Santa was added in.... the one dressed up in red and white wasn't from the pagans...but adapted from Coca Cola...yes...same red and white Coco Cola the drink.... that was used in their ad...very popular.... and was drafted into Christmas. If it weren't for Coke....nothing like Santa would be in Christmas. Christmas...pagan period.

OP, no sense In ur post. U need to do something about ur brain - reset to default. Keep on celebrating what u know absolutely nothing about. God is watching u

alBHAGDADI:

Please try to comprehend simple statement. I never said Jesus was born on December 25th, I only said there is a 100% chance he was born on that day. We are not saying for sure that he was born on December 25th. But why are you all criticizing us for choosing that day to celebrate his birthday when he hasn't criticized us?

We christians chose that day for a purpose which has since been achieved. Whoever was worshiped on that day is no longer worshiped or celebrated because of Jesus who has conquered them all.

You say December 25th was dedicated to a Sun God called Mithra. That is another version quite different from the Nimrod version. Those people celebrated a false sun god because Satan deceived them. They didn't know what they were worshipping.

John 4:22
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship:

They didn't know that Jesus is the true Sun of Righteousness. Below is the Bible calling Jesus the SUN.

Malachai 4:2
But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

The people who worshiped the sun god Mithra where deceived by Satan. Now they are worshiping the true Sun of Righteousness who is Jesus. Can you now see how Jesus once again took back what belongs to him?

100% chance means he was born that day

alBHAGDADI:

Who told you what I wanted to write?

People forget no one gets angry for being celebrated out of pure love, not even the devil.

spiritedtete:
Pegan or no pegan... Christians took advantage of it... To celebrate christ.

Another reason to spread the word and the awearness of Christ.

All this useless writers... Should get perspective!

Christmas was once the most celebrated festival in the whole world. Before other religions started feeling threatened by it. Check very well, when you say you are a Christian but does not celebrate Christmas, average Muslim will be very happy with you. Even on Nairaland here

Jesus's apostles did not celebrate the birth of Jesus. Christians must imitate Jesus and his apostles and not Roman traditions.
"The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. " 1 Timothy 4:1

This is probably why there is so much immorality and filth during Christmas.



" He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD." And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. "— Genesis 10:9-10

If God wasn't pleased with the building of Babel he most likely wasn't pleased with Nimrod either.

MadamExcellency:

Allow God to be the judge. If our hearts condemn us not, we will always have boldness before the alter of the most high God both in prayers, worships and fellowships

The flesh will always have excuses to make you fall in sin

But you don't think this also how Jesus Christ became worshipped as "God".


Do you know that Jesus was regarded as a normal man until his divinity was voted (yes, voted) upon by bishops and politicians at the Council of Nicaea in 325AD?




Your blindness is selective.

kiddoiLL:
You really don't know shit do you? You just go to church, come back, believe everything you hear and just live....
The Bible, have you ever seen Sunday down to Monday? ... are you even aware they had no names and God named them first day of the week down to the seventh day?? Are you aware Sunday down to Saturday are pagan oriented? Dude you have the net and encyclopedias, make use of them and stop making baseless arguments...You guys will read the Bible and just pick whatever you want and dump the rest

You didn't digest the whole article because if you did which I doubt you would have seen when he mentioned all you just asked

1. There is nothing like true or false religion. Religion is about faith. It can not be proven by any scientifically acceptable or verifiable means. There is nothing verifiable about all the religious text. They could have been fables. By the way, it has been man's practice to believe his faith his the "true" faith while every other is false. Well, there are at least 5.5 billion other people with faith different from whatever faith you profess.

2. "...100% certain he was born on the 25th?" That's a contradiction of your earlier statement which was worded as a certainty too. You can't be certain he wasn't born on the 25th yet be 100% chance he was too. That's impossible mathematically. 100% is no chance, its certainty.

3. There are so many deities worshipped on the 25th that are also associated with cutting and decoration of trees.

4. You were right that you could celebrate on anyday you wish. In fact religion have always copied from each other including "pagan" religion. Thats the same way Islam started maolud nabiyy from observing xtians. There is no biblical or Quranic evidence for either of the celebrations.

5. Stop claiming priority of days cause your religion us the "true" religion whose God created all days. I'm not saying you're wrong, but you just can't prove it.

6. By the way, most gods were human(real or imagined) who were deified after their death. The names are just too numerous. Ogun, Nimrod, Mithra, Artemis, Osiris etc.

7. Stop worrying about whether people claim your celebrations are pagan-rooted. Its your faith and yours alone. Follow this wise adage below:

Never Explain. Your friends don't need it and your enemies won't believe you anyway.

On a lighter note, I think human were planted by aliens thousand of years ago. They came in shining and ships which may explain our attachment to the sun. I think Satan may have been one of the dissidents to the alien sky-gods ruler who wanted this colony for himself.

Or evolution may be right. I can't prove I'm right, but you can't prove me wrong either

alBHAGDADI:
Do you know that TV is used to watch porn? Just because some freaks abused TV doesn't mean it is bad.

Very dumb. In what way is watching porn abusing Tv? Just because something isn't morally right to you, doesn't mean it's bad. Is watching porn on TV illegal?

AkpaMgbor:

We use the Roman calendar.Different days for different gods. You should really study the Romans before you start talking.
But that doesn't dispute the fact that God created time and day. Man just created different systems to calculate it

Actually the Bible said that the devil is the perverter of the ways of God in acts 13:10..it's the so called pagan gods and worshippers that perverted the days created by God..Christians are only reclaiming what belongs to them...note; this post is directed at Christians..

Mizwisdom:



Thank God for your life. Now go and don't acknowledge or celebrate Christmas if it's your choice but don't judge others who chose to celebrate it.

I'm not judging you. I'm educating you.

you dont have enough facts to disprove the false christmas assertions. christmas is not in anyway biblical. it was borrowed from pagan festival and christianised. show me biblical support for it and stop playing with the bible and history.
