This is NOT the "birth of Christ" since Jesus the Christ was born in the late Spring. There are over 24 factual reasons, 2 video links by Pastor Wagner (YouTube), and 3 other links that clearly indicate that this is taking on the traditions of the heathen. "Saint Boniface (634–709), who was a missionary in Germany, took an axe to an oak tree dedicated to Thor and pointed out a fir tree, which he stated was a more fitting object of reverence because it pointed to heaven and it had a triangular shape, which he said was symbolic of the Trinity. In the early 4th century, the church calendar in Rome contained Christmas on December 25th and other holidays placed on solar dates: "It is cosmic symbolism...which inspired the Church leadership in Rome to elect the southern solstice, December 25th, as the birthday of Christ, and the northern solstice as that of John the Baptist, supplemented by the equinoxes as their respective dates of conception. While they were aware that Pagans called this day the 'birthday' of Sol Invictus, this did not concern them and it did not play any role in their choice of date for Christmas," according to modern scholar S.E. Hijmans."
Again - like the Meme says - if someone celebrates "Christmas" - that is THEIR "INIQUITY" and "ABOMINATION" - NOT mine / NOT ours. That's pretty plain and simple to understand. If a man has eyes - let him see, and if he has ears - let him hear (just like the Bible / Jesus instructed). To be as "little children" - it means to have a TEACHABLE spirit - NOT a debatable / argumentative / rebellious spirit and since we are all to be of "LIKE MINDS" and "EQUALLY YOKED" as Christians - anything that is different than what is instructed by our Heavenly Father - God above, and His Word (the Scriptures) is NOT aligned with Him nor His Word.
