Description

Some traditions are good and some traditions is in the same category as when Y’shua spoke against the “traditions of men” causing them to break the Commandments of YHVH.
Mat 15:3 But He answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of Elohim by your tradition?
The same verse applies to us today when we do things that are in our culture or part of our traditions but it is not found in Scripture and it’s origins may also go against the Commandments in the Scripture. Is Christmas one of these traditions? Can we celebrate Christmas without transgressing the Commandments in Scripture? How do we know if Christmas is “safe” to celebrate so that we do not transgress YHVH’s Commandments?
Every tradition that we do, that has a spiritual connotation to it, must be researched to see where its roots are and where it originated. If the feast is rooted in Scripture then it is safe, but if it is rooted in some man made tradition or even worse, in a pagan form of worship, then the red lights start flashing and you should not have any part of it. In this study we will look into the celebration of Christmas, it’s roots and what the Scripture have to say about certain aspects thereof and if it is “safe” to celebrate as the Birthday of our Messiah?
