Reasons Why Christmas is not a ChristianFestival.1. We dont find a instruction in Bible tocelebrate the birthday of Jesus.2. We dont find Mother Mary who was presentin the New Testament church nor the brothersof Jesus nor the disciples of Jesus celebratingthe birthday of Jesus.3. Jesus was not born in Dec 25th. Jesus diedaround March /April and if we calculate his birthdate based on His age at the time of death whichis 33 and half years, Jesus must have bornaround Oct /Nov.4. Dec 25th was celebrated as the birth day ofSun God even before the birth of Jesus.. WhenRomans converted to Christianity they broughttheir Pagan festivals into Christianity with aChristian label. Christmas, Easter & Sundayworship are adoption of Pagan Festivals.Historians Gerard and Patricia Del Re explain:The tradition of celebrating December 25 asChrists birthday came to the Romans fromPersia. Mithra, the Persian god of light andsacred contracts, was born out of a rock onDecember 25. Rome was famous for itsflirtations with strange gods and cults, and in thethird century the unchristian emperor Aurelianestablished the festival of Dies Invicti Solis, theDay of the Invincible Sun, on December 25.Mithra was an embodiment of the sun, so thisperiod of its rebirth was a major day inMithraism, which had become Romes latestofficial religion . . . It is believed that theemperor Constantine adhered to Mithraism upto the time of his conversion to Christianity. Hewas probably instrumental in seeing that themajor feast of his old religion was carried overto his new faith ( The Christmas Almanac, 1979,p. 17).Its difficult to determine the first time anyonecelebrated Dec. 25 as Christmas, but historiansgenerally agree that it was sometime during thefourth century—some 300 years after Christsdeath. And then a contrived date was chosenbecause it was already a popular pagan holidaycelebrating the birth of the sun god!5. God condemns following Pagan worship by thebelievers.3After the doings of the land of Egypt, whereinye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings ofthe land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall yenot do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.Leviticus 18:36.
