Bruce Timpany's caricature of Christmas is an eye opener. As a Christian,
i understand Christmas ,to be, just a celebration of the Birth of Yeshua.
The date places it during the Winter Solstice when Christians celebrated
his birth in-conjunction with pagan celebrations in ancient time. Yeshua
never mentions that his birth should be remembered. He did say he should
be remembered in communion
On the night before his death, Jesus "took bread, gave thanks and broke
it, and gave it to them (his disciples) saying, 'This is my body given for
you; do this in remembrance of me" ~ Luke 22:19
It is a conundrum to me why this celebration is made out to be some Christian
Conspiracy against God Almighty. After all, Allah never told Muslims to
celebrate Eid El-Fitry after Ramadan ,nor did HaShem command the Jews to
celebrate Hanukkah in the re-dedication of the Temple in 165 BC. MB my
Jewish friend pointed Bruce's caricature, narrative, and started an interesting
discussion..
No matter how well-intentioned your Christmas celebration is, worshipping
Him with practices taken directly from paganism is an abomination to God.

Christmas | Origin, History, & Traditions }}}{{{ Dear Friends and Fellow
Servants,}}}
We are living in extraordinary times. Today, just as in the days of Isaiah,
truth is fallen in the street; and judgment is turned away backward. On
every front the truths of scripture are arrogantly disparaged while the
wisdom of man is exalted and received as authoritative, and without
question.Today Contemporary Christianity has not only allowed truth to
fall, but it has thrown truth in the street as a gesture of religious tolerance
and compromise. It has given the adversaries of scripture exactly what
they need to substantiate their claims that what most present as Christianity
is nothing more than redefined pagan mythology. Educated theologians
know that; yet they continue to present a compromised gospel filled with
pagan tradition that never had anything to do with Yeshua . There has never
been a more important time in the history of mankind for those called out as
servants of our Creator to confront the philosophy and vain deceit that would
lead people away from our Savior.
~Yashua The Messiah~ Over The Last Two MIllennium Christianity has
systematically laid aside the "feast days of the Lord" and established its own
holidays. Christmas was established to enable pagan converts to come into
church fellowship without forsaking their heathen customs and practices.
Easter is a replacement for the biblical Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread.
Even the weekly Sabbath was abandoned in favor of Sunday, the pagan day of
the sun, supposedly to commemorate Yeshua's resurrection , it took place not
on Sunday morning but at the end of the weekly Sabbath at sunset Saturday).

answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is
written:This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.7
And in vain they worship Me,Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
8 For laying aside the Commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men
