Not celebrating Christmas for 5 reasons

  1. The First, if we read and check the Bible, we will find that the four Gospels  did not tell us at all when Jesus' birthday was. 
  2.  The second , because pope of the Roman Catholic Church could not find the birthday of Jesus in the Bible, they found that in the Greek mythology the sun god’s birthday is December 25th . Thus they announced December 25 as the Lord Jesus’s birthday to celebrate Christmas which is actually celebrated as the birthday of a pagan idol.
  3. The third, every week we remember (celebrate) the death and resurrection of the Lord more than celebrating the birthday of the Lord Jesus. The birthday of the Lord Jesus is only for His death and resurrection. Otherwise, the birthday of the Lord Jesus is meaningless. His birth is just to prepare a physical body so that He may shed His blood to be crucified to redeem us for the sake of our salvation. Thus, we may have God's life, be children of God even to become God in life , nature and expression , but not in the Godhead for producing and building up the Body of Christ , consummating in the New Jerusalem . This is the true intention of the Lord and the true purpose of the Lord's birth. 
  4.  The fourth, the Lord Jesus clearly commanded us in the Bible several times that we , Christians , on every Sunday (on the Lord’s day) must remember (celebrate) the death and resurrection of the Lord. That is why all Christians on every Sunday (on the Lord’s day) must be sanctified to go to the Lord's table meeting because this is the way to fulfill the Lord Jesus's above commands . 
  5.  The fifth , the most important one, we care most about Christ rather than mass or mas, that is, we really care about how much we gain and live out the reality of Christ. We all need to ask ourselves how much the reality of Christ we actually live out in our daily livings ? For example, do we live out Christ as our long-suffering , long endurance , great patience, constant and unchanging love, great faith in hardships , restraint in all things, loving your enemies. These above are the realities of Christ, do we really live out in our difficult situations and daily living ? Living out Christ's reality, is true celebration of Christmas because to live out the Lord Jesus is equal to give birth to(= express) the Lord Jesus from within you in your practical living.
