Yes

  • It is a celebration of our Savior's birth and the exact date is not important.
  • We don't need a commandment to celebrate Jesus' birth; it is a natural act of gratitude on our part.
  • Since the secular world celebrates all the wrong things about Christmas, it is our duty as Christians to celebrate what is true and perhaps use this special time of year to evangelize.


very agree, especially #1, I don't know why people have to obsess with the date.

No

  • The Bible does not mention December 25th as Jesus' birth; the exact date is disputed by many.
  • Jesus has never asked us to celebrate his birth as he did for his death.
  • We should celebrate the living Christ every day of our lives; the emphasis on one particular day in December is unnecessary.
