Was Jesus born on December 25?

Answer 1

No one knows the actual date, month, year, or exact time of day or night, in which Jesus Christ was born. It's possible that he may have been born on that date, but, there is no solid or concrete evidence to prove it was on that date.

He was not born on this Date. Experts have studied the area and based on Data shown it was too cold for sheep to be out at night in late Dec. Fact is Decemeber 25 is a pagan Holiday of Yule Jesus actually was born early August to Late Sept. Christians just didn't want a Pagan holiday celebrated so they put his birth on the same day. Just like his ressurection is on a Pagan holiday as well

Answer 2

No, Jesus was actually born on the 15th of the Jewish month of Tishri. That is somewhere in September-October.

Dec 25 is a Pagan Holiday of Yule but Christians didn't want it to be celebrated so choose to replace it with Christmas. Just like Jesus wasn't resurrected on Easter Sunday it in fact is ANOTHER Pagan holiday hand picked

It has been celebrated by many Christians at that time as far back as 330 AD. But the gospel of Matthew dates his birth during the reign of King Herod who died in 4 BC technically before Jesus was even born. Bottom line is, no one knows for sure exactly when he was born or even exactly when he lived.

Answer We do not know when Jesus of Nazareth was born. December 25th was celebrated as the birthday of the sun god, as that is the day when the sun seems to begin to rise earlier in the morning. During the fourth century, this date was nominated as the birthday of Jesus, in order to encourage conversions to Christianity by keeping a popular festival.

We don't know, but no matter what date He was born on, we can and will still celebrate Christmas as a time to get together with family and pass presents around to each other and have a nice Christmas feast.
