| ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ( B ) CHRISTMAS - THE WORD In truth, the word Christmas has nothing to do with the birth of Christ. Christmas is simply an abbreviated word which means Christs� Mass or also called, the Mass of Christ. Thus, Christmas is not a celebration of the Lords' birth. Moreover, Christmas, that is to say " Christs' Mass " or the " Mass of Christ " is not really a true witness of Christs' death for the sins of the world. So Christmas is falsehood in just those two instances. The Mass is a Roman Catholic sacrament that deals specifically with the Lords� death and it does so in an unscriptural manner at that. It has nothing to do with His birth. www.newadvent.org/cathen/03724b.htm www.christianism.com/articles/13.html http://www.bible.ca/t-holy-days-origin-christmas-easter-halloween.htm http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=Christmas+and+1038+A.D. http://www.a-voice.org/main/chrismas.htm Encyclopedic Resources: The Encyclopedia Britannica - A Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, Literature and General Information 11th Edition Vol. 6 p. 293 Collier�s Encyclopedia Vol. 6 p. 403 The New Encyclopedia Britannica Micropaedia Ready Reference 15th Edition Vol. 3 p. 283 Chamber�s Encyclopaedia New Revised Edition Vol. 3 p. 537 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
