Why was Christmas started?

Answer 1

Answer

Christmas is all about Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. Three wise men came to King Herod looking for baby Jesus. They brought Jesus Gold, Frankincense ( Frank in sense ) and Myrrh ( Mur ). When King Herod heard Jesus born king of the Jews was two, he commanded his army to kill every two year old baby alive. An angel told Joseph to run away to Egypt. He got Mary up and just in time, so they snuck out the back door. Christmas really means Christ's Mass. That is the story of Christmas and how it was created.

Are you talking about the movie or the story of Christ?

I know way more about the story of Christ's birth because I have never seen the movie.

Long ago an angel came to Mary when she was praying and told her that she would have a baby boy and to name him Jesus (son of God). Mary told her fiancée, Joseph, but he thought that if she was going to have a child it meant she was no longer a virgin when if fact she was still a virgin. Another angel came to Joseph in is dream and told him to marry Mary because her son was the son of God. They had to travel to the town of Bethlehem to pay taxes and so they would be counted in the census and they could not find an inn to stay in. Finally after a long time of searching they found an inn keeper who let them stay in there barn. That night Christ was born in the inn's barn. A star appeared over baby Jesus' barn and 3 wise mean and Shepperd's came to praise the new born king.

That is the shortened version of it and I did cut a few corners.

Answer 2

Was Not CreatedAnswer 1) Christmas is the day Jesus was born. No one created it - it's his birthday (The Bible and secular history discredit this answer.)

Answer 2) Christmas was originally created by Congress who wanted to fill the calander with a national holiday. There is no place in the Bible that says Jesus was born in December.

Answer 3) The Roman universal "'church" superimposed the "holiday" ontop of another religion's "holiday" so their folks could celebrate at the same time without losing any power to the rival pagan religion. Jesus Christ wasn't born in December. Research it yourself! The Roman census was in summer time or late spring so citizens could travel easier without the cold and rain of winter. The sabbath isn't on Sunday either - it's Saturday.
