Christmas (December 25th), is the date that Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus, so basically there would not be a Christmas without Jesus' birth, hence why he is a symbol for the Holiday.

Where did the idea for Christmas trees come from?

The Christmas tree is a symbolic representation of several events in the life of Jesus Christ.
