#107 Should Christians Celebrate Christmas?

98

In this last show of 2013 Paul looks at what does the Word of God say about celebrating Christmas? Can a Christian celebrate Christmas in their home according to the Word of God? Should the church celebrate Christmas? How and what should we think about the worship of God?
"We have no superstitious regard for times and seasons. Certainly we do not believe in the present ecclesiastical arrangement called Christmas: first, because we do not believe in the mass at all, but abhor it, whether it be said or sung in Latin or in English; and, secondly, because we find no Scriptural warrant whatever for observing any day as the birthday of the Savior; and, consequently, its observance is a superstition, because not of divine authority." –C.H. Spurgeon
"The Popish holy-days ought not to be observed, because they are not appointed in the Word; and, by the same reason, no other holy-days may be kept, whatsoever pretence there be of devotion towards God, when there is no precept or example for such practice in the holy scripture."
–Thomas Vincent (1634–1678)
"There is no day commanded in Scripture to keep holy under the gospel but the Lord's day, which is the Christian Sabbath. Festival days vulgarly called Holy-Days, having no warrant in the Word of God, are not to be continued"
–Westminster Assembly, The Directory for the Publick Worship of God, 1645
