What you are about to read is not my opinion. You are about to read facts which I will support using Scripture. I have no agenda other than my life’s purpose of being an ambassador for Christ.
Believe it or not, the celebration of Christmas, is not a celebration of the birth of Jesus as you were told in church or at school. Christmas has nothing to do with The Bible or with Yehoshua (Jesus’ real name). Rather, Christmas is a successful attempt to Christianize a previously pagan festival. The reasoning behind this passing off of paganism as Christianity is because as Europe surrendered to Christendom (a completely different phenomenon not to be mistaken for Christianity or Christ follower-ship), it became necessary in the eyes of the various kingdoms of Europe that merged with the Holy Roman Catholic Church to Christianize their pagan holidays and bring about a Catholic (the word Catholic simply means universal. It does not mean Christian) or acceptable holiday.
Thus Samhain became known as Halloween, the pagan celebration of the Winter Solstice known as Yule (hence the term Yuletide) became Christmas and the celebration of the goddess named Ēostre, became Easter.
In truth, whether called by their original pagan names or their new Christendom names, none of these festivals appear in the Bible (the King James Version deliberately translates Passover as Easter in Acts 12:4 mostly because of King James’ strong association with demonology, but all other translations reject that and left it how the original Greek Scriptures described it-Passover).

FTA: I have read the Holy Books of Judaism, Christianity and Islam and while all of them acknowledge the Messiah, NONE of them instructs believers to celebrate Christmas or the birth of Christ.
In fact, God deliberately made sure we do not celebrate the birth of His only begotten Son, Yeshu’a (Jesus) by keeping the actual date of His birth from us.
No one on earth knows the date of the Messiah’s birth.
If satan asks any true child of God to celebrate a pagan satanic ritual festival, they will never do it. So satan just transformed a satanic ritual festival by giving it a new name-CHRISTMAS, and voila, Christians begin to celebrate what Jesus did not command us to celebrate.
Christmas is an abomination and a blasphemous festival, and the Bible warned us about it in 1 Timothy 4:1 that:
“The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.”

Hallelujah! And if it were about Jesus then no one would be fretting about cargo ships not delivering the “gifts” on time!

It such a relief to be freed from this lie…I know you and I share these things STRICTLY out of love for God’s truth! When I was delivered out of Roman Catholicism one of the first things I started wondering is why would I as a Born Again believer celebrate the birthday of Jesus with the RCC??? It took me some time to break away! I did it little by little then one year -what ever I hadn’t already whittled away – I was finished I made it lovingly quite clear! Of course I get the look still at times like I have 3 eyes-but that’s ok-it’s called persecution-ALL FOR THE HONOR AND GLORY OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR! 🙌❤️🙏🏻 👑
My mother in law will not be in Arizona for Christ-mass this year. I clean for her. She said something about wondering what was going to happen for Christ-mass since she’s be home. I kindly said, “ I don’t know-I don’t have to be concerned where I will be. I’ll be at home because we don’t “do” Christ-mass anymore.” She won’t talk about it 😞Just changes the subject!!
( all my clients know I clean their house I don’t do Christ-mass decorating-no-not even the “manger scene”.)

Yes, I have gifts shoved at me and people still send cards though they know I don’t celebrate this day. Cards are shredded just out of my indignation of the day, not at the loved ones sending them. As for the gifts they get trashed or given to charity thrift stores. Its a tradition that people won’t let go of any sooner than a dog will let go of a meaty bone (and they even growl like dogs at you for speaking the truth!). And that is idolatry and idolaters won’t make it into heaven As Jesus asked, Why do you call Me, Lord, Lord, but do not do as I say? And He says that not everyone who calls Him Lord will enter the Kingdom of God. And He says, Away from Me, I never knew you. Why? Because the Jesus of X Mass is not the true Jesus of the Bible. Its serious eternal business!
Have a blessed Lord’s Day, precious sister, amen! \o/

I have joy in my heart that I don’t celebrate Christmas anymore and haven’t for many years. It went little by little at times but now I am totally free. All by the grace of God. So we are ostracized and looked upon as strange, but after all we are pilgrims and aliens on this earth. It’s sad because true Christian fellowship is put aside and Christmas takes center stage this time of year. We are living in end times and we wait for our Lord’s return. Bless His holy name! 🙌

It grieves me that many of our fellow believers can’t see the truth of this pagan/papist/traditions of men feast day. But it is in our Beloved’s power to open their eyes to see it as He mercifully and lovingly did for us. And you are so right! It is by His grace…
Have a blessed Lord’s Day, sister in Christ, amen! \o/
