Fourth reason why Christians should not celebrate Christmas


4.                  The date of Christ's birth has never been a secret

The fourth reason why Christians should not celebrate Christmas it is because the popular teaching to support the Christmas theory in that no one knows the exact date of Christ's birth is both erroneous and deceptive. Unfortunately, “if the date of Christ's birth is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them” 2Corinthians 4:4).

If the date of Christ's birth is unknown as most deceivers have said and led so many to believe it is unknown because of the huge cloud of deception that is hanging over the entire world and because of the denial and rejection of Jesus Christ by those who knew Him for it is written; “Now some of them from Jerusalem said, "Is this not He whom they seek to kill?  Look! He speaks boldly, and they say nothing to Him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is truly the Christ? The response of those who rejected and denied Him as being the Christ said; “we know where this Man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from."

Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, "You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know. But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me" (John 7:25-29).

Here we see where the idea of no one knows the date of Christ’s birth came imagine now, in the middle of winter people who profess to know Jesus Christ are delighted in singing “Hark the herald angels sing, glory to the new born king” when the time the angels sang glory to the new born King the shepherds were outside in the fields keeping watch over their flocks.

In addition to this, how can profess Christians have blinded their eyes to the festival designated and ordained specifically for the worship and adoration of the King of kings and Lord of lords and which is intertwined with the biblical Feast of Tabernacles when the scripture clearly states: “And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles?”

What is so difficult in this scripture for one who professes to believe in Jesus Christ to understand and believe! And remember, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever? And since Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever one should take into deep consideration and consequences for not worshiping the King of kings and Lord of lords and keep the Feast of Tabernacles which is stated as follows: “And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, on them there will be no rain. If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles” (Zechariah 14:17-19).

The onus is on each individual to believe or not to believe, for we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad so the choice is yours whether to believe or not to be believe.
