CHRISTMAS is combination of 2 words:
Christ and Mass.
Before Christ was born, many years ago, 25th Dec used to be PAGAN’S day for SACRIFICES.
Later in the year 533 AD Constantine, the head of the then Roman Church which is today the Roman Catholic, changed the day from pagan’s day of sacrifices to Jesus Christ’s birth commemoration. He called the day THE MASS FOR CHRIST ie CHRISTMAS
- CHRIST in Hebrew means The Anointed One or The Chosen One
- MAS in Greek means A Big Gathering of People
Thus CHRISTMAS means The Gathering of People of Christ, (His Followers/Disciples)
Then, where did the word X-MASS come from?
Be ware!!
Its believed that after the day of gathering of Christ’s Followers {CHRISTMAS}, became famous and respected worldwide, Atheists & Antichrists decided to change it by removing the name Christ for an X to mean that there is no Christ.
It changed the meaning by reading X-MASS i.e to mean “there is no gathering of Christ’s Followers”
Merry CHRIST-MAS & NOT X-MAS
X is often used to designate a person,thing, factor, whose true name is unknown/withheld.
It’s used to take out, excise,cancel words.
“X” has nothing to do with “Christ” “The Anointed One,” Don’t replace Christ with “X” Therefore as a Christian don’t use X-MAS but
CHRISTMAS
You might have made that mistake last year by wishing people X-Mass instead of CHRISTMAS. Our Father in heaven is a lovely Father and a merciful one at that.
