What does Christmas mean to you?

[Joshua-777]

What does Christmas mean to you?

LOOT!

~ What Christmas means to me is refuting falsehood.

Same as any other day.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Mary-Christ-Mass says, The Catholic Saint Nicolas

And no, I don't have a Clausemas Tree anymore.

Yes, it was hard for my family at first.

But now they know what is of God and what isn't.

God can speak through falsehood if that's what one wants.

After all He had the pagan Prophet Baal proclame the Blessing of Israel to a Pagan King.

When His Prophet Moses was busy with the 12 tribes.

But neither was the pagan prophet nor the king saved

in the Giving of His Truth nor the Knowing.

God can work through anyone in any situation.

But it doesn't mean, they, or the situation, is of God or His people.

God can meet people where they're at.

But, some of us just don't want Him to go as far to get to us. -

I think it's hilarious that people are so obsessed with materialism at Christmas. Then they say, there's something more, I don't know what it is, but it's the Magic of Christmas. Well maybe it has something to do with the NAME, and the fact that most of the carols are about Jesus. I believe the good feelings present at this time of year are hard-wired in everyone's minds, because for many many years Christmas was not so materialistic, but a time everyone was happier because Christ was born. Look how everyone acts towards each other (when they're not trying to kill each other at the mall). We give so much more to charity, we are nice to complete strangers, go to chrurch, goodwill towards men, peace on earth, etc. Must be magic! Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus. Once a year anyway. I want to feel the same all year long as I feel at Christmas. Christmas reminds me of how I'm supposed to feel and why.

i must say, as a young child Christmas was the utmost sacred event for me, but as i have grown older and seen how the world treats the day as a commercial money-grabbing milk-out and treat the message behind the celebration with contempt, it has certainly lost some lustre in my eyes. i pray i can maintain the joy for my little ones in grasping the gospel truth, and that i will be able to enjoy it myself once again, and not feel so dissappointed about the whole affair.

Spare me the misquoting/misapplication of Scripture, please.....

I have to confess...I really enjoyed Christmas when I was younger. My mom would get so aggravated with me because I had the tree up before Halloween....she HATED Christmas. Absolutely.

I think it all started going downhill after my father died in 1985. That Christmas was the most miserable one I ever had, but we kept it because of my nephews that were in the area. I knew it was never going to be the same.

After I moved to Florida, I put up the tree only to see my cat climb in the thing and knock it over, or pee in it. After I left my ex husband, I didn't do much to celebrate Christmas, and to this day the only thing I ever put up was my mother's ceramic tree, which is now gone to somewhere I have no idea.

I actually think it's easier now to celebrate Hanukkah. After all, the little 9-branched menorah I have is easy to carry around (unlike a tree), I get gifts for 8 days instead of just one, and I eat more food than I know how to handle for those 8 days instead of stuffing myself like a turkey for one day and being miserable. More importantly, it doesn't matter which holiday I celebrate---or at what time---the knowledge that Y'shua was born of a virgin (fulfilling a prophecy) in Bethlehem (Beit Lechem--house of bread) (again, another prophecy) and grew to be our sacrifice once and for all for sin is DAYENU----more than enough.
