No one really knows the date Jesus was born, so December 25 was just a fixed date to remember him, I don’t really count it as his birthday … Moreover it is my first time seeing stuff about the sun god and there are many things that is beyond us…
Just going with the flow, ther are many things that is not clear but one thing I know is God exist ….
So you don’t celebrate Christmas in your church ?
Exactly, everyone knows that but they somehow made us still accept it with so many reasons given and like you said, some just want to flow with the trend afterall it has some good features in it.
You are right, God exists and he has given us a way he wants us to serve him, we don't have the right to decide how we worship him because he said the true worshippers must worship him in truth and in spirit.
My advice to you Dad is to try asking more questions about Christmas and also do well to find answers in the Bible because that is a Christian's only source of authority nothing else. It is wise to speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where it is silent.
Good morning dad, I'm so sorry I had to respond to this now, I was just feeling a bit lazy and tired. Hope you are doing well?
Good morning my lovely daughter❤️, it is ok to take a rest when you are tired😉
meanwhile whatever i find out about christmas won't really change anything, the world will keep celebrating it and i will join them to celebrate it as well..
which makes me curious, do you celebrate easter in your church?
Yes Dad you are right about that.
That's true, whatever you find won't stop others from celebrating Christmas and that's one reason why Christmas is not a Christian feast, in fact pagans celebrate this feast more than those that say they are the followers of Christ. Well, I wasn't expecting you to stop celebrating Christmas, I'm only trying to tell you that Christmas is not a feast that a Christmas should partake in.
I'd like to know what Easter if you don't mind because I'm not sure if I really know why it is called Easter.
Hmm i guess you don't celebrate that too in your church right?
No, We don't because that's not what we see the apostles practice or what Christ himself asked us to do.
The only feast we saw that Christ asked his apostles to celebrate was the lord's supper and he even showed them how to do it and what to use for it.
It we want to serve God, we must serve him in truth and in spirit, there is not room for what we think is right or what we feel is good. It is God we are serving right? So why not serve him the way he wants?
hmmm i am still a baby in the word of God, so i don't really know much about it...
it is all good dear... We got to do what we think is right while serving Him
I can't say I know the whole Bible but when it comes to what God wants from us, I always try to find out about them, so I think you should do the same dad so you won't end up getting it all wrong. And you know, one of the main duties of a Christian is preaching the gospel and you can only preach when you study to show yourself approved rightly dividing the word of God.
It's not what we think is right but what the Bible tells us. If we keep serving him the way we think it's right, we will keep having issues knowing what the truth is. The Bible is one and it will never change and that's why we should always try to follow what Christ has said, what his apostles did and learn from the children of old.
