The Meaning of Christmas

JESUS' BIRTHDAY...A SAVIOR BEING BORN FOR US SO THAT WE CAN BE SAVED, AND LIVE IN PEACE IN HEAVEN ONE DAY WITHOUT ANY SADNESS, CRIME, DISEASE, OR ANY PAIN. PEACE & LOVE & A MIRACLE BIRTH. EVERYTHING WONDERFUL :)

Christmas is a time for friends and family to come together for fun and fellowship and to remember God\'s gift of Jesus to the world. We give gifts to each other in remembrance of God's gift of His son, Jesus!
We celebrate Christmas because it is Jesus' Birthday and on Christmas is to buy things for other people not yourself.
CHRISTMAS IS A TIME TO SHOW LOVE TO EVERYONE AROUND YOU. A TIME TO REFLECT ON YOUR ATTITUDE TO PEOPLE AND TRY TO MAKE UP FOR THE THINGS YOU HAVE DONE.
We celebrate the birth of Jesus. Santa has become a person to show the joy and love of Christmas. I can do without the commercialism.
It is about giving not receiving anything....it also is the day Jesus was born.
The meaning of Christmas is just to be with your family and enjoy the holiday! It is not about gifts. IT is nice to get gifts. But that is not what Christmas is. Christmas is a day that you spend with family and friends. That is the meaning of Christmas!
a time when you are with your loved one, and the people you care about. It is a time you celebrate the birth of Jesus. It is not about the presents.
The meaning of Christmas is to love and care for others. Not for presents, or candy! For LOVE! And for religion. Christmas and Christmas Eve is a day to love. Not just because of the presents.

How did Christmas start?

Since about 400 AD, Christians have celebrated the birth of Jesus. 'Christ' means 'Messiah' or 'Anointed One' - the title given to Jesus - and 'Mass' was a religious festival.

In the West today, the real meaning of Christmas is often forgotten. It has become a non-religious holiday! More children believe in Father Christmas than in Jesus. Christmas Day is a time for eating and drinking too much and watching television.

But the real Christmas story is found in the Christian Bible. It is told in two different books: Matthew and Luke chapters 1 and 2. If you have no Bible, you can read these chapters online. You may think that the story of the birth of Jesus, and the way that the West celebrates Christmas today, do not seem to have many connections.
