Christmas is about Christ. Or it is about nothing.
Amid the varied customs and colorful traditions of the season, there are many non-facts mixed with the very important facts. We need to know the difference.
The birth of Jesus Christ was not a “current” matter. It went back to the very beginning. Some people claim that only “seeing is believing.” For many years, there were specific prophecies about the coming of the Christ child. Some believed. Some did not. But then it happened — just as prophets, revealing God’s plan hundreds of years in advance, had said.
Dec. 25
The date Dec. 25 has no special significance in itself. For more than three centuries, the birth of Jesus Christ was celebrated at various dates. The actual time of His birth has not been established.
