Unfortunately, the Bible does not mention the date of his birth (a fact Puritans later pointed out to deny the legitimacy of the celebration).
Although some evidence suggests that his birth may have occurred in the spring (why would shepherds be herding in the middle of winter?), Pope Julius, I chose December 25.
It is commonly believed that the church chose this date to adopt and absorb the traditions of the pagan Saturnalia festival. First called the Feast of the Nativity, the custom spread to Egypt by 432 and to England by the end of the sixth century. Lets we sing together happily,
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding
And bring it right here
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year
We won't go until we get some
We won't go until we get some
We won't go until we get some
So bring it right here
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year
We all like our figgy pudding
We all like our figgy pudding
We all like our figgy pudding
With all its good cheers
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas and happy news.
Christmas Sharing is a registered charity wholly funded through the generosity of the community. In 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic presents additional challenges.
In Bible: 2 Corinthians 9:6-8
Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.
Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
The benefits of Giving have been proven to decrease blood pressure and reduce stress. This reduction promotes longer life and better health.
Giving promotes social connection. Studies show that when you give to others, your generosity is often continued down the line to someone else, or returned to you.
Those who generously giving, they may any religion, there are seems like "Angel of God " to the poor.
2 Corinthians 9: 7
Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
yet it is vastly superior to the courtesies and kindnesses of the flesh.
We must be careful not to confuse human sentimentality, carnal pleasantries, human amiability, and affability with true spiritual love.
The love God commands, first to Himself and then to others, is not human. It is not the indulgent, self-seeking love that is in us by nature. If we indulgently allow our children to grow up with little or, no Scriptural discipline, Proverbs plainly says we do not love them, regardless of the human sentimentality and affection we may feel for them.
Love is not a sentimental pampering of one another with a loose indifference as to our walk and obedience before the Lord.
Glossing over one another's faults to ingratiate ourselves in their esteem is not spiritual love.
The true nature of Christian love is a righteous principle that seeks the highest good of others.
It is a powerful desire to promote their welfare.
The exercise of love is to be in strict conformity to the revealed will of God.
We must love the truth.

God Bless you.
