Christmas - The Mass of Christ.

The word Christmas is essentially a Roman Catholic word and has been rejected in the main by Protestants.    This is the day when most protestants become Catholics.

Most people think it means the birth of Christ when in fact it mean the death of Christ.  The word mass means a death sacrifice.

So when we wish each other a 'Merry Christmas,' we are asking that they have an enjoyable 'death sacrifice' of Christ. It is really a making fun of the Saviour's death on Calvary for the sins of the world.  May we even be laughing at the Saviour's blood which was shed for the human race.

The pervasive influence of Romanism on Protestant thinking and practice is difficult to miss.  However, we chose not to see it or believe what you have just read.

So may I wish all my loyal readers a most blessed time as you mark the birth of the Saviour of the world, Jesus Christ, God's eternal Son.  Worship Him on His official birthday (when He was born we just do not know).  Remember to point to Him as you bear witness to Him and give Him your heart as a gift.
