HE IS THE REASON FOR THE REASON. BY REV NDUBUISI MICHAEL. ISAIAH 9:6&7


In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9

The joy of a new born baby, whose birthday the earth celebrate never cease to flow. By Rev Ndubuisi Michael.
We are season where everybody wants to happily and joyfully celebrate, and spend the holidays in wonderful way. Someone may ask, what season is that? It is Christmas.
WHAT IS CHRISTMAS: Christmas is the annual Christian festival celebrating, Christ birth held on December 25. December 25 is dated as far back as AD 273.
HOW DID DECEMBER 25 COME TO BE:December 25, it was the Pagan festival day honoring the sun, celebrating it on that day, the Christian possibly chose that day ( December 25 ) to counter the pagan influence on Christianity, for it ( December 25 ) was the saturnalia festival of emancipation and the triumph of the light after a long lasting darkness, christians understanding what the Bible says. “The people that walk in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.” Isaiah 9:2 and vs 6, reads “For unto us a child is born, unto us son given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Them ( the Christians ) knowing, that Jesus had been given birth to, recalling what the book of Luke says “Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” Luke 1:78-79, believed by the efficacy of the word of God that Jesus Christ is the reason for the seasoned celebration, following the signs that followed the birth of Jesus Christ and what the Bible says, concord that December 25 will be called Christmas though Roman Emperor Constantine (he was the first Christian Roman Emperor).
THE NAME CHRISTMAS: Christmas come from the mass of Christ [ Jesus ] birth celebration of the Messiah-Jesus-Christ. No one knows the real birthday date of Christ, the Bible did not disclose the date, so why is December 25 a chosen date for the celebration. The early Christian tradition has it that the Annunciation day was March 25 and it is celebrated till date. Nine Months from March 25 is December 25 dated from the Jewish calendar .
Sad enough that people have forgotten the Reason for the Season which is The King of Kings, and The Lord of Lords, The Maker of the Universe, who came in human form to redeem the earth. He though now in heaven, but His birth celebration has gone round the earth, it very sad to know that we christians now follow the sound of the celebration of the season, refusing to notice the reason for the season. Every body wants to be a big boy and a big girl not Godly but worldly.
HOW TO CELEBRATE IT: Christmas season should be when to refresh and renew our relationship with God through Jesus Christ as the reason why they are celebrating in this season, believing and hold Christ strongly for a prosperous New year, praising God and honoring Him for what He has done. It’s also time evangelize Christ, appreciate Him and give the best of our gift to Him, ( Christ ) more to our heart.
