OPINION At Christmas, let's remember that many images of Jesus don't reflect His likely appearance Many of our religious images of Christmas aren't biblical at all By John A. Murray Fox News ...
Christmas finds Christians around the world gathering to celebrate Jesus' birth. But does the Bible really cite December 25 as the date the Son of God was born?
This is true even of Jesus. Though fully human, his humanity cannot be separated from his divine person, which means visual images of Jesus are, in fact, attempting to picture God.
Although Jesus' birth has long been commemorated on Dec. 25, Christians didn't celebrate the birth of Jesus in the first two Christian centuries — or at least, there is no record of it.
The tradition of Christians celebrating Christmas in December came several centuries after Jesus's death, right after Roman Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity in 312 A.D.
Photos of the scene have gone viral. A similar installation is to be placed in Manger Square before Christmas Eve. Today, Isaac said, the Christmas story feels more contemporary than ever.
We should not let the deeper meaning of Christmas be lost in the wrappings The teachings of Jesus are more important than ever now as COVID-19 threatens us all. It respects no boundaries.
