September or October would be the most likely month in which Jesus was born. I believe it is possible to pinpoint the exact time, because Simeon managed to figure it out. (See Luke 2). David

He was not born on December 25, and God never told us to celebrate Christmas anyway. David From: [email protected]: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]: {dbilg} devotional from Donnie Parrett Dec.25Date: Thu, 25 Dec 2008 10:14:47 -0500 The True Meaning of Christmas Christmas is one of the most important days among Christians. This day commemorates and celebratesthe birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christmas is morethan just a holiday. It is the remembrance of the fact that God so loved the world that He gave Hisonly begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shouldnot perish but have everlasting life.Jesus' birthday - Christmas is about God's love. It is about God's love for you and me. It is Godexpressing His great love for mankind, through the givingof the greatest gift, the Lord Jesus Christ. He loves us not because of what we are, but He lovesus because of what He knows we can become, if we'llallow Him to get involved in our lives.John 1:1-3, 14:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 He was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the onlybegotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. This passage from the Book of John tells us what Christmas is all about. It is about Jesus cominginto the world. It is about the Word of God, the LivingWord; Jesus is called the Logos, or the Word of God, and it says, "In the beginning was the Word."Notice that verse 1 says "the Word was with God". This verse shows Jesus' separate and distinctpersonality. Then it says "the Word was God." Now, Ican't explain this to you. I can't explain it in a rational way so that you can understand itintellectually, but that's what the Bible says, it saysthat the Word was with God and then it says that the Word was God. Praise God that He doesn'trequire us to understand it mentally in order to gain thebenefits from it; all we have to do is simply believe it.Romans 8:1-3:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walkaccording to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His ownSon in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin:He condemned sin in the flesh,This is the purpose of Jesus' coming. His purpose was to come and take away our sin. To come andpay the penalty that all of us should have rightfullypaid as a result of Adam's sin in the garden of Eden. Jesus came to do it for us; that's what thisseason is all about. That's the true meaning of Christmas,that Jesus came to do what the flesh could not do and that is to bring us back into fellowship andcommunion with the Heavenly Father.Hebrews 2:10-15:10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringingmany sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvationperfect through sufferings.11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reasonHe is not ashamed to call them brethren,12 saying: "I will declare Your name to My brethren; In the midst of the assembly I will singpraise to You."13 And again: "I will put My trust in Him." And again: "Here am I and the children whom God hasgiven Me."14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared inthe same, that through death He might destroy him whohad the power of death, that is, the devil,15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.Jesus came to set us free from the ravages of death. Praise the Lord! The real meaning ofChristmas is Jesus Christ: crucified, dead, risen, ascended,and coming again! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! O.
