Christmas is a sin, but not rude behavior that will do anything to make a win. A win is when they dominate every conversation with the same sort of talk heard in an mental ward, where they will tell you there is something wrong with you, never them. For you are required to abstain while they may continue with a sleight of hand everywhere they go. But that's the imagination again, your fault for detecting it. Surely, it has to be too many drugs. They always have to spoil every good thing for everyone else.
I agree, well said. I really dislike it when people have the audacity to judge others concerning such things.
They make it seem like their walk with God is going around with a loud mouth saying God hates this, that, and the other. I know in my heart what pure religion is. It's in the book of James.
No, you can not inadvertently celebrate anything you do not intend to celebrate. That is determined by what is in your mind, NOT what you are doing. When it is about God or Jesus, God has no doubt whatsoever what is in your mind.
True. I have Muslim and Indian friends that do Christmas for the gift part, but say they leave the religious part out of it. It would be odd to tell the they are inadvertently celebrating Jesus by doing XMas, eventhough they said they would leave Jesus out of it and say you are celebrating Jesus birthday and taking part of Christianity by buying gifts and decorating your house.
I know the argument is XMas is a rebagded holiday of pagan sungod worship and if we are honest, most of the customs are still there and renamed, but unless you are praying to Nimrod, Baal or whatever other made up idol god, you cant worship another idol god by mistake unless you are going out of your way to do the customs and your intention is to worship that god with it.

Worship has 0 to do with it. Partaking off the table of demons( 1Cor 10:21) has everything to do with it. God says one cannot partake of that table and his table--many are trying. These--Matthew 7:22-23-- I believe satan beat 99% living today-centuries ago. LOOK world.

Why? Because it is a day that God has not commanded us to keep. It is like the strange fire offered to God in the Temple. We cannot decide our OWN way to worship God or celebrate Him. He said that OUR WAYS are sin. The festivals that God provided were shadows of things to come and were to be kept so that we would have knowledge of those events. Observing Christmas is vain.
But he didn't specifically command us not to. Right?
Christmas is just one day of the year.
I'd be more concerned about the blatant disregard for the 4th Commandment that most Christians willfully disobey every week. God must be furious.

Jeremiah ten, he specifically warned us against Easter and Christmas, you get sealed with the seal of Babylon for keeping Christmas and Easter and this by the law, you are sealed with the name TAMMUZ if you keep easter or Christmas, this is biblical fact under the laws of Moses, you are sealed by the holy days you keep, you keep the Babylonian Christmas and the Babylonian Easter, and there you are.

Well that shouldn't be surprising since they're both Pagan celebrations that those very naughty early church fathers just renamed & pretended that the Spring festival that represented fertility somehow pertained to Gods blood sacrifice & the Winter Solstice celebration somehow became a Rabbis birthday.
One can dress up a pig & call it Hilda but it's still a pig.
More importantly though, can't help notice that you completely ignored the Sabbath comment.
You're not one of those Christians who blatantly ignores the 4th Commandment week in week out?
You may as well kick God in the goolies.

That is a very peaceful picture...
