Many says, "So what, if Christmas is unbiblical and man-made? The point here is the church made a date for us to celebrate Christ's birthday! And on that celebration we are happy!"
This is really an ignorance. They sacrifice god's teachings doing their will, on the way they will feel joy and etc. Its hard for the Christmas-celebrators to leave this occasion, especially here in the Philippines, it becomes a tradition and culture even they discover that it is unbiblical. If you will just hear their point, maybe its correct, that in that occasion, they become happy and also to celebrate "Christ's birth".
But, what really did Christ said BIBLICALLY in his remembrance? Is it to celebrate Christmas?
Let us read I Cor. 23-25, it is stated:
"For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
See? The one that is BIBLICAL, words came from our lord JESUS CHRIST, in remembrance of HIM is through the Holy Supper (Whereas, in the RCC, when there is mass they fall in line and eat the bread, but the priest is the only one who drinks the wine;oD)! Through this, they also remember all his sufferings and sacrifices for his Church.
Why should we need not to celebrate "Christmas"? Click the link.
My question to you, what will you do to be saved, doing your own will (happiness and etc.) or GOD'S WILL?
