Do you want to know the history of Christmas? was Jesus (Yahshua) born on december 25? Was the sun god Sol Invictus born on December 25? Was Christmas always a Christian holiday or does it have roots

in pagan sun god worship? is Christmas from Saturnalia? What about the pagan Christmas tree? Discover the truth regarding pagan Christmas.

Christmas Eve, the most popular holiday for believers and unbelievers alike. On this day many families will come together to share stories, to enjoy a family dinner, and most importantly, to exchange gifts. Now few would deny that on the surface Christmas has a lot of attraction, but beneath it we find a day stepped in paganism. In this message I want to expose the origins of Christmas and many of its traditions.

As we’ll see, this time has nothing to do with the Messiah, but instead with ancient sun worship. Now I want to begin by asking, why December 25? Do we find a connection between the Messiah’s birth and this date?

Here’s what we find from the New Catholic Encyclopedia: “Inexplicable though it seems, the date of Christ’s birth is not known. The Gospels indicate neither the day nor the month”
Historically who established the date for the Messiah’s birth? This was done by the Roman Church. So the very source responsible for December 25th says here that the actual date for the Messiah’s birth is unknown. So we see that the traditional date for the Yahshua’s birth has no evidence. There’s nothing historically or scripturally that provides an exact date of when the Messiah was born.

Now this is not the only source that confirms this fact, there are many others. For example, here’s what the Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature says: “The fathers of the first three centuries do not speak of any special observance of the nativity. No corresponding festival was presented by the Old Testament ... the day and month of the birth of the Christ are nowhere stated in the Gospel history, and cannot be certainly determined….”

It says that the fathers of the first three centuries spoke nothing about the celebration of the Nativity. So we see here that a celebration honoring the Messiah’s birth was unknown to the very men who governed the church for the first three hundred years. You would think that such an important event would have been understood by these men. The fact that they were oblivious to it shows that it has absolutely no early historical ties to Christianity.
So if the day of the Messiah’s birth is not known, why then did the church choose December 25th? This day was chosen because of its connection with pagan worship; specifically in connection with sun worship, which goes all the way back to ancient Babylon.
Now in this message we’re going to focus mostly on the time of Rome, because it was within this timeframe when the church adopted this day for the Messiah’s birth. Now in the Roman Empire there were three observances that paved the way for Christmas, i.e., Saturnalia, Mithraism, and Sol Invictus.

What is Pagan?
Paganism is a term first used in the fourth century by early Christians. It was applied on populations of the Roman Empire who practiced polytheism, either because they were increasingly rural and provincial relative to the Christian population or because they were not milites Christi (soldiers of

Christ). Alternate terms in Christian texts for the same group were hellene, gentile, and heathen. Pagan and paganism were pejorative terms for the same polytheistic group, implying its inferiority. Paganism has broadly connoted the "religion of the peasantry", and for much of its history was a derogatory term. Both during and after the Middle Ages, pagan was a pejorative term that was applied to any non-Abrahamic or unfamiliar religion, and the term presumed a belief in false god(s).
What is Christmas?
Christmas is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. It is observed primarily on December 25 as a religious and cultural celebration among billions of people around the world. Christmas Day is a public holiday in many of the world's nations, is celebrated religiously by a

majority of Christians, as well as culturally by many non-Christians, and forms an integral part of the holiday season centered around it. Although the month and date of Jesus' birth are unknown, by the early-to-mid fourth century the Western Christian Church had placed Christmas on December 25, a date that was later adopted in the East. Today, most Christians celebrate on December 25 in the Gregorian calendar, which has been adopted almost universally in the civil calendars used in countries throughout the world.

Who is Yahweh?
Yahweh was the national god of the Iron Age kingdoms of Israel (Samaria) and Judah. His exact origins are disputed, although they reach back to the early Iron Age and even the Late Bronze: his name may have begun as an epithet of El, head of the Bronze Age Canaanite pantheon, but the earliest

plausible mentions of Yahweh are in Egyptian texts that refer to a similar-sounding place name associated with the Shasu nomads of the southern Transjordan. In the oldest biblical literature, Yahweh is a typical ancient Near Eastern "divine warrior", who leads the heavenly army against Israel's enemies; he later became the main god of the Kingdom of Israel (Samaria) and of Judah, and over time the royal court and temple promoted Yahweh as the god of the entire cosmos, possessing all the positive qualities previously attributed to the other gods and goddesses.
