What About Christmas?
Here are some undeniable facts about Christmas:

WE WELCOME ALL TO
ATTEND AND FELLOWSHIP
WITH US!
1. There is no proof that Christ was born on December 25, but the glorious good news is
in the fact THAT HE WAS BORN as our Savior, that he came down from heaven to seek
and to save the lost (Luke 2:8-12).
2. Christ should be just as precious to us as if he had been born on December 25. In fact,
he should be more precious to us than if he had been born yesterday. If he had been
born only yesterday, we would know nothing of his wonderful life, his miracles, his
teachings, his death for our sins, his resurrection and ascension into heaven. We
would know nothing about the New Testament Church, and the spreading of
Christianity upon the earth, as in the Acts of the Apostles. In fact, if Christ had only
been born yesterday, we would not yet have the New Testament and Christianity.
3. Another fact worthy of consideration is the fact that we can rejoice in Christ, as
Christians and believers in Christ, on December 25, just the same as on the other 364
days of the year. We do not have to cease to be happy in Jesus at “Christmas” (Phil.
4:4). This would make Christmas the same as all other days of the year.
4. Instead of revealing the date of the birth of Christ, God has revealed the day on which
he was raised from the dead – the first day of the week (Mark 16:8-9; Luke 24:1-47).
God does want us to celebrate this day. It is a day called the “Lord’s day” (Rev. 1:10; 1
Cor. 16:2; Acts 20:7). In it we are especially rejoiceful and glad.
5. We should show our faith in Christ, in his birth, in his life, in all he did for us, and is
doing for us, in every proper way; but we should not deceive others into thinking we
are celebrating December 25 as the birthday of Christ, for there is no good reason to
believe it is the date of his birth.
6. But when all the facts are considered, there is nothing to prevent our enjoying the
holiday season just ahead called “Christmas.” We may give and receive gifts in this
season, or at any other season of the year, on December 25 or on any other day of the
year that we wish – on our birthday, or that of others. In fact, we could “rejoice with
them that do rejoice” at Christmas or any other time. There is not enough happiness
in the world anyway. We can, however, do all this without celebrating Christmas as
the “birthday of Christ.”
7. Finally, if is proof of the divinity of Christ to find him so popular in the world nineteen
hundred years after his birth that the civilized world wants to celebrate his birth,
whether it knows the date or not. Thank God for our Lord and his coming into the
world, regardless of the exact date of his arrival by virgin birth. We shall, therefore, go
on teaching his truth, whatever is proper and fitting, regardless of “Christmas.”
