(( BE " FOUND " in THE BIBLE )) The First CENTURES OF CHRISTIANTLY There was STRONG OPPOSITION To Recognizing BIRTHDAYS Of MARTYRS or , for the matter , OF JESUS CHRIST " states THE ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA ,. CHRISTIANS Viewed BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS As a PAGAN CUSTOM , Something to be AVOIDED ALTOGETHER . IN FACT , NO MENTION OF THE DATE OF JESUS CHRIST ' BIRTH Can Be FOUND IN THE BIBLE or ANY CHRISTIAN BIBLES . In THE FOURTH CENTURY C.E., Despite the stand taken by THE EARLY CHRISTIANS Against THE CUSTOM OF CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS ., THE CATHOLIC CHURCH INSTITUTED CHRISTMAS . THE CHURCH Wanted To STRENGTHEN ITS POSITION By Removing ONE of the Main Obstacles , in its way - The Popularity of THE PAGAN ROMAN RELIGIONS and THEIR WINTER SOLSTICE FESTIVALS EACH YEAR , FROM DECEMBER 17 THROUGH JANUARY 1 ." MOST ROMANS FEASTED , GAMED , REVEALED , PARADED , and JOINED IN OTHER FESTIVITIES As They PAID HOMAGE TO THEIR DEITIES , " Says CHRISTMAS IN AMERICA , by PENNE L:. RESTAD . AND DECEMBER 25 , THE ROMANS CELEBRATED THE BIRTH OF THE INVINCIBLE SUN . INSTITUTIANG CHRISTMAS ON THAT DAY , The CHURCH Cajoled Many ROMANS INTO CELEBRATING THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST INSTEAD OF THE BIRTH OF THE SUN . ( copy - by - ) Pastor Henry George , Sask . (( PART TWO )) == WERE THEY KINGS == The HISTORICAL RECORD of this Event is Found in THE BIBLE Book of MATTHEW . THERE WE READ : " AFTER JESUS CHRIST ' BIRTH ..... ASTROLOGERS From The EAST ARRIVED ONE DAY IN JERUSALEM INQUIRING . " Where is THE NEWBORN KING of THE JEWS ? We Observed HIS STAR at its RISING and have come to PAY HIM HOMAGE ." ( Matthew : 2:1,2 ) New Aerican Bible = Why does this BIBLE Translation Call THE VISITORS From THE EAST ASTROLGERS and NOT KINGS ? THE SCRIPTURES HERE USE The Plural Form of THE GREEK WORD ) MA`GOS . Various BIBLE Translations Render it as " WISE MEN ," ASTOLOGERS ,"or " STARGAZERS ," or THEY Simply Transliterate it as " MAGI ." This Word Refers to Those on the position of THE STARS and THE PLANETS . THE BIBLE Thus Identifies THE VISITORS To BETHLEHEM as DIVINERS , Who Used Occult Practices Disapproved BY GOD ( Deuteronomy : 18:10-12 ) Were They Also KINGS ? If THEY Were , it is Reasonable to Expect that THE BIBLE would have IDENTIFIED THEM AS SUCH ,( Matthew : 2:1 , 12 ) Uses THE WORD " KINGS " Four TIMES , once Referring TO JESUS CHRIST and THREE TIMES to Herod . But not ONCE does it Call THE MAGI KINGS . On thos Point THE CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA STATES : " NO FATHER of THE CHURCH Holds THE MAGIto Have Been KINGS .' Neither Does THE BIBLE . . The NUMBER og MAGI is not Mentioned in THE BIBLE RECORD . Nevertheless , NATIVITY SCENES and CHRISTMAS SONGS ESPOUSE the commonly Held Tradition that there were THREE . This Springs from the fact that there were THREE TYPES OF GIFTS . Regarding these , THE BIBLE Says : " They also OPENED THEIR TRESSURES and PRESENTED ( JESUS CHRIST with Gifts , GOLD and FRANKINCENSE and MYRRH ." ( Matthew : 2:11 ) - copy - by - Pastor Henry George , sask. (((( Part THREE ))) === Inaccurate Story === In The Light of THE SCRIPTURES , The Popular Story of THREE KINGS Honouring JESUS CHRISTat The Time of HIS BIRTH is not ACCURATE . THE BIBLE Teaches that THE " MAGI " : Who Visited JESUS CHRIST WERE NOT KINGS but ASTROLOGERS who Practiced The OCCULT . THE SCRIPTURAL RECORD does not Say how MANY THERE WERE . Also , TEY Did Not Visit JESUS CHRIST THE TIME OF HIS BIRTH , When HE WAS PLACED IN A MANGER , but , Rather , SOMETIMER LATER . WHEN HIS FAMILY WAS LIVING IN A HOUSE {{{ I WONDER HOW MANY MISTAKES THEY PUT IN THE BIBLE - HOW MANY LIES ARE PUT IN THE BIBLE . TO MAKE PEOPLE TO BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE and JAHWEH GOD }}}}- copy - by - Pastor Henry George , Sask {{{ PART THREE }}} The DAY Of JESUS CHRIST'S Birth can not be ASCERTINED FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT , or , Indeed , FROM ANY OTHER SOURCE : Said : MIClintock and Strong's Cyclopaeddia . ( Luke : 2:8-11 ) Shows That SHEPHERDS Were In THE FIELDS AT NIGHT AT THE TIME OF JESUS CHRIST CIRTH . THE BOOK DAILY LIFE IN THE TIME OF JESUS CHRIST STATES , FLOCKS ...PASSED THE WINTER UNDER COVER ; From This ALONE IT MAY BE SEEN , That THE TRADIONAL DATE THE SHEPHERDS WERE IN THE FIELDS IS WRONG : SAID ( HENI DANIEL_Rops - Page : 228 {{{ Part FOUR }}} THEW ENCYLOPEDIA AMERICANA Informs US ; The reason for Establishing in CHRISTMAS IN DECEMBER 25 by THE CATHOLIC CHURCH was as Chosen to Correspond Festivals The DAYS BEGIN TO LENGTHEN , TO CELEBRATE THE " REBIRTH OF THE SUN . THE ROMAN SATURNALIA ( A FESTIVAL TO SATURN , THE GOD Of AGRICULTURE , and RENEWED POWER OF THE SUN ) The Date OF JESUS CHRIST'S BORN IN NOT " KNOWN " . GOSPELS Indicated NEITHER THE DAY nor THE MONTH ; SUGGESTED BY H.USENER . THE BIRTH OF JEUS CHRIST WAS ASSIGNED THE DATE OF THE WINTER , SOLSTICE ( DECEMBER 25 In THE JULIAN CALENDAR ; JANUARY 6 in THE EGYPTAIN Calendar Because on THIS DAY , As THE SUN BEGAN TO RETURN TO NORTHERN SKIES . {{{{ Part Five }}} When THE ASTROLOGERS Arrived , JESUS CHRIST'S HOUSE . As to JESUS CHRIST and HIS PARENTS Were LIVING IN HOUSE . AS To JESUS CHRIST AGE At THAT TIME WAS ONE TO TWO YEARS OLD ( THIS IS JUST GUESSING , No PROVE ) : Because HEROD Had Learned From THE ASTROLOGERS . He Deceed that ALL THE BOYS in the District of BETHEHEM around ONE and TWO YEARS OLD were to be DESTROYED . So WE think JESUS CHRIST HAD TO BE ONE or TWO YEARS OLD , Then .
