Actually it is through Jesus Christ that we now have the hope of everlasting life.We all should be grateful to GOD ALMIGHTY.But that does not call 4 a celebration of christmas bcos the bible makes no mention of a birthday celebration for Jesus.Infact, his exact birth date is unknown.We can be sure,though,that he was not born on Dec. 25 in the cold of winter in that part of the world.The roots of christmas are found,not in scripture,but in ancient pagan festivals, such as the Roman Saturnalia, a celebration dedication to Saturn, the god of agriculture.So it is not for christians.A day of ones death is better than his day of birth, bcos of this JESUS CHRIST himself instituted a celebration on the night b4 his death......I'll be back
