THAT WAS A MEAN LITTLE TRICK! :giggle: You saw me coming, didn't you?:geek: Welcome to CC and Godspeed.:)

John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.

He saw me coming too. I am both far-sighted and near sighted. Not the best visionary combination to have. :)

Actually, my vision is not up to par but I was able to read those tiny words. Seeing is believing in the evidence that is unseen. It is called faith. Glad to have you onboard with us. Welcome to CC.

I take no part in Christmas, for obvious reasons.

Mark 7:9
And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!

That's fine anything we do w/o faith is sin. I personally have faith that many Christians designate Dec 25th to celebrate the birth of Emmanuel with great comfort and joy. 'A thrill of joy the weary world rejoices' a time of concentrated thought on the gift of our Savior.

I would think you accept the Bible as authoritative literature on this matter.
There is nothing in the Bible that I have read that would warrant Christmas. "Do not go beyond what's written" As it says. So is the traditional festivities going beyond what is written? That's a question we must ask ourselves.

That is most likely the common consensus. Can you please post the chapter and verse, I think that it mentions hope as an intricatel part of the equation

This is one of my favorite verses about faith and hope.

Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
