12. Significance of December 25th....
It was the Feast of the Unconquerable Sun (Sol Invictus), observed by worshippers of Mithras. The Mithraic religion, from Persia, was especially popular with soldiers throughout the Empire. Whatever its origins, I would consider Christmas a partially Christian holiday.

However, not all Christians agree. Orthodox Christianity has a few quibbles:

Then there's the fellow at "Last Trumpet Ministries" In essence, the Mass is the ceremonial slaying of Jesus Christ over and over again, followed by the eating of his flesh and the drinking of his blood. The Mass is the death sacrifice, and the "Host" is the victim. This is official Roman Catholic doctrine, and "Christmas" is a word that they invented. Again, I ask, what is so merry about the pain, bleeding, suffering and death of Jesus Christ? Satan has done quite a job of getting millions of so-called "Christians" to blaspheme. What a deceiver he is.

Now you know the true meaning of the word "Christmas" or Mass of Christ. There is much more to know about this pagan holiday, and we will be glad to provide you with plenty of evidence that Jesus was not born on December 25th, and that Christmas is not only a lie, but is actually a witches' sabbat called "Yule" in clever disguise. Please contact us at the address below, and for the sake of your soul, flee from idolatry!
