C-Mas Myths
Some Christmas myths I will be breaking today...
but first of all, check out this awesome icon I made for my DA and MB accounts! xD
gahahahahahaha LOLLLLL
I MADE IT DO NOT STEALLLLLLL
STEALING IS ILLEGALLLLLLL
okay.
here are the truths that break the myths:
1. Santa's true color was green. Coca Cola changed it to red.
2. Jesus was NOT born in a farm/barn/cave etc etc. He was born in a house-- unfortunately, the NIV Bible mistranslated a greek word that meant "guest room" and put "inn" instead. Also, the "manger" that Jesus was born in refers to the box made for putting animal food in. It was typical in Bethlehem to put newborns in mangers. HE WAS NOT PUT ON A HAYSTACKKKKKK ! ! ! !
3. Christmas Day is NOT NOT NOT Jesus's birthday. He was actually born in the springtime, but no one knows the real date. This is proven through the sheep that are grazing at night time. If it was winter, the sheep would be sheep-cicles. Dec. 25 is the day Christians rebelled against a king who wanted them to bow down to him. They won.
4. Mary was about 13-14 when giving birth to Jesus.
5. Angels are NOT blue-eyed, golden haired models with wings and a halo. They are frightening through their holiness. (as pastor says, "they are superhuman X-men" xD) note, whenever angels appear, they had to say "do not be afraid" to the people who saw them.
6. The "three kings" were not kings. they were wise men. In fact, the number of wise men is still unknown. people assume that there were three because they brought Jesus three gifts.
7. The shepherds that came to see Jesus were teenagers. Older people tend the sheep at day; younger people tend the sheep at night. Jesus was born at night.
yupp. that's it so far.
i assure you with my life that a typical nativity set up is wrong.
thank you for listeninggggggg :)
