Your misunderstanding is that we are literally DYING to convert you to Christianity, whereas the truth cannot be further from this.
We can’t convert anyone unless the Holy Spirit works in your heart.
So we only talk if He sends us.
Do you think we have a “kick” out of the conversion of the lost? Really?
We have assurance of OUR salvation. Independently or where you will spend eternity
Christmas was originally celebrated because of the birth of Christ. That was the reason before the pagans celebrated it because of the winter solstice.
Easter is here because Jesus rose from the dead.
They weren’t created to convert people but you can’t change the origins of how they came about. It seems to me that the world has done enough to both those holidays to forget the reason we are celebrating them. If anything, we are now trying to stop people from believing in the story of God.
That, to me, is sad. I mean, you don’t have to believe in God but you don’t have to take Him out of everything just because you don’t think He’s real. You can do that in your own family but there are people out there that believe the birth and death of Jesus. At least say, “Merry Christmas”.
Edit: that may be true, whatever! but Christmas was not. The holiday that the pagans celebrated was not Christmas, it was Saturnalia, in which they honored Saturn who was the god of agriculture. They did the same thing in January for a different one. We do celebrate Christmas on December 25th but it is a different holiday with different origins. Therefore, Christmas was never a pagan holiday to begin with. We do get some Christmas traditions from that celebration such as caroling and a tree. The tree was used for many reasons and the Druids used it for religious purposes. But the celebration of the birth of Christ and the honoring of Saturn are different holidays.
Answer by Whatever!There are so many they have dipped they’re hands into and claimed as Christian when in fact they simply adopted our Pagan holidays and warped them into an agenda that fit their needs to convert so that Christianity doesn’t die out and the old ways come back.
Edit: _spanish…, If you knew your history you would know that Paganism was here long, long before Christianity! You should read up on history before making a statement that flimsy.
