Shalom! Welcome to Catatan Josephine. First of all, Welcome to my first upload on youtube channel. Some of you were asking if christmas is also paganism? Few months ago I did share my podcast about the paganism and revealing what are pagan that are still exist in our todays soceity. These ancient spirits or demons thats written in bible are still exist until now. They may have different name, but the manifest of the spirits are still the same. Now Christmas tradition also already exist in these world for decades, even centuries, even more before Christ was born. The ancient tradition was adopted from man tradition and customs as religion or spiritual worship to gods. These tradition /customs that people are still celebrating as christmas is actually the ritual in honor of those gods. It has develop, become more merry and nice, and full of enchantments. Here i found some of historical background / roots how it began in first place. By learning the historical or roots of these tradition we will find the truth and understand what actually the bible, prophets Jeremiah 10:2-5 and Isaiah mentioned 57:5. Prophet Jeremiah and Isaiah already warned people of Israel about these things, that we need to seperate ourselves from man´s teaching or tradition of man (the way of the gentiles). Customs and tradition´s of man are being past from generation to generation as traditions. Same with our ancestor thought things that been passed on. These so called pagan also being passed through generation. Being adopt, maybe change names, through times and change of soceity but the manifest of the spirits are still the same. We can see it from its fruits. Here in Norway, Christmas (Jul) are being celebrated long time ago before Christ, as honoring of their ancients gods. its amazing that people are still celebrating it exactly as it was. They understand that celebrating christmas is nothing to do with Jesus Christ or religion. Its pagan. at least that what my former boss said to me back than. Christmas is not christianity. Thats why many foreigners including indonesian expats here are accept it and celebrate it together very year as tradition. For more full explanation, check this episode and God bless you!
