🗡️ Sermon delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church on Thursday, October 1, 2020, at 6:15 pm. 🗡️

The Bible says in Jeremiah 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.

This expositional sermon will address the pagan roots of the Christ-mass.

Many Christians have been taught that Christmas has to do with the birth of Christ. However, since there is not 1 verse of scripture commanding Christians to celebrate Christ's birth, where does the idea of Christmas come from?

This sermon will answer the following questions:

Why is mistletoe used during Christmas and where did it come from?
Why was the yule log used in the winter solstice festival?
Where the practice of hanging balls on evergreen trees come from?
Why were gift exchanges practiced during the winter solstice?

Finally, you'll learn about the shocking truth concerning witches delivering gifts as part of pagan winter solstice celebration.

We hope this sermon allows you to search your heart and your bible concerning WHY you do what you do, concerning the celebration of Christmas.
