Why December 25th
Manage episode 457235461 series 2866059
December 25th wasn’t randomly picked from a divine calendar. The early church intentionally aligned Christmas with a Roman pagan holiday.
Now, don’t get so spiritual that you get stuck on that fact. They were not trying to blend in; they wanted to flip the script. Their goal? Turn a celebration of the unholy into a party for the Holy One. But fast forward, Christians, believers, and children of God have allowed unholiness to reclaim the celebration. It's the RSVPs of believers that have the biggest impact on whether holiness or unholiness is exalted.
Did you know that 90% of adults in the U.S. profess to be Christians, talk about the power of influence, imagine if 90% of the 90% was intentional about reclaiming December 25th to celebrate the birth of a Savior, we have the bandwidth to breathe holiness back into Christmas. But we need to ask ourselves what are we doing individually to contribute to the holiness of the celebration.
