Christmas and the Crucifixion

[rickydepths1]

God does not like Christmas. It has nothing to do with Christ. It came from Roman Saturnalia. Jesus may have been born in Spring or Fall but not in the winter. Jesus doesn't like Christmas...Read jeremiah 10:1-5

The video does not promote Christmas in that sense. I simply stated that it is the time that many set aside to celebrate Christ's birth. Is there something wrong with celebrating Jesus' birth? Would you agree that it's good to do a study of all the words that pertain to why Jesus came?

Hi, I don't celebrate it but it is good to remind ourselves what gift God gave us in Jesus...

[thrufaithalone]

Yes...365 days a year;)

Quite a lot included in our gift of salvation -- but some of those words are very foreign, very specialized (theological), where can you recommend we look those words up -- a regular dictionary?

[thrufaithalone]

Actually, that's a very good place to start. Before my conversion, I had no expository dictionary or concordance so I turned to Webster's dictionary. If I have time this week, I'll put the definitions in the sidebar:)

[EncompassedRunner]

Thanks, that'd be super helpful.

[thrufaithalone]

Definitions up:)

[EncompassedRunner]

Very helpful, thank you.

[thrufaithalone]

You're welcome:)

Amen.

I wonder if all those who celebrate christmas understand that this Child was born to die so we could be born again? I pray they will understand and worship the King of kings and Lord of lords.
