Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
My family knew that Jesus wasn't born on December 25th. But why do we still celebrate Christmas? Christmas for us is a time to rejoice and thank God for the virgin birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ(although we remember His birth daily). A time to be together away from work, business or school and just enjoy each moments with prayer, food and exchanging of gifts. I have many Christians friends who choose not to celebrate Christmas because of the pagan origin of the celebration. I respect and understand them and love them in Christ Jesus. There are those who celebrate it and I also have the same feelings towards them as those who choose not to. At the end, if we choose to or not to celebrate Jesus birth, may it be glorifying to Him and that in your heart you are fully convinced that your decision has been done in faith. Furthermore, let us not pass judgement to those who celebrate or those who choose not to celebrate especially the bible is silent about this issue. We have been given the greatest gift of all.. our God and Savior Jesus Christ. Let's ring out the news that Jesus is born.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year To All!!!!
