RE: IT'S ONE YEAR OF EARNING PASSIVELY
That's it Mz, as Christians we are to share love every day and that is how the world knows we are sent by Jesus Christ. If you as a Christian celebrates Christmas you might be at a very big risk of practicing the doctrine of man although you know that you do it for the right reasons.
I remember you said you've read the new testament, I can't remember if you read all but then, from the place you've read, did you see Christ choose a particular day to celebrate his birthday? Or did you see his apostles do so? All I saw that the apostles celebrated was the lord's supper and in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 Christ told his apostles to do that to remember him.
That's the only feast we see Jesus Christ's apostles observed and as Christians we are to learn from Christ first, his apostles then we can make use of necessary references.
God is concerned of how we serve him, we cannot just serve him the way we feel is right, we have to serve him the way he wants and celebrating his birth once in a year was never the practice we could find in the Bible.
😁I learned some points from you Ma'am!💕 Thank you for your kindness!!!😍. Yes I read it cover to cover Ma'am and I said it po, not to say I memorized or understand it all but to express how I loved God po, to try to know him better, to be like Jesus in so many ways po, to search more about him ❤️ . To be honest that verse of the Bible is what I perfectly memorized the John 3:16-17. But I learned to live what I have learned po. I still commit sins, but knows how to repent and asked for forgiveness po. I know when I should practice what is right or just choose to be kind than to practice what is right. I forgot the verse where I read that Sunday (Saturday before) should be treated as holy day because it is the Sabbath. There are beliefs and rules to be followed there, including it is not good to heal or do anything aside from worshipping God that day po!. But what Jesus did was, He still healed the sick, fed the hungry, why? Because he shows us po that there is no perfect time to show love and kindness po to anyone. Like I don't care if I will be condemned for doing good and express my faith in Jesus in God, because for me He is the only one who needs to be glorified and nobody else. But doing this with humbleness and respect with my words, and by respecting others in words and in action. Like what I did when I encounter the rudeness of the owner of the community for my contest entry. And I believe nobody in this world alive will completely understand the mystery of the Bible in a perfect way, base po on what is perfectly written in words po. But gave us the wisdom to do things out of our conscience, not just of being right. Because Jesus taught us in his actions that love and kindness overruled all the laws if this will not create damaged.
And like what I have said in my response po, Maybe December 25 is not the exact birthdate po, believers doing it as à gratitude and act of love and kindness. Like a miracle that even the enemies gets reconciliation (to some). And you can see almost everyone smile and full of joy, not only because of the gifts, and material things that commonly got po from the givers and exchange gifts. But I believe this is the essence of Christmas to bring peace and joy po. Kindness and gratitude, need not to be written, it should be planted in our hearts and mind. So celebrating Christmas don't need to be written po, but act of gratitude po. Rules are only made by us people, but kindness and love is given to us freely by God po.❤️
