Research

Where in the Bible does God mention Christmas? Did Jesus say we are to celebrate His Birthday? Even so, December 25 was definitely NOT the day He was born. Do more research, and find out for yourself.

Results of my research on Christmas. Pastor was right. Check this out(If I had the patience to read them, so do you!):

Quoting from the site above: [Quote]If Jesus meant his followers to celebrate Christmas, he would have practiced it himself and enjoined it on his followers. There is no mention in the entire Bible that any of his followers ever celebrated Jesus' birthday like Christians do today.[/quote]

Jeremiah 10:1-5

1Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:


2Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.


3For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.


4They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.


5They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.


Well.. I'd leave the rest to you. Let Him speak to you. When He does I hope you don't mind sharing with me. =)

All I ask you is to think about it.


God bless
