Merry Christmas? Dec 25? BUT Mary, His mother, knew Jesus's date of birth.

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas ???
Many , including Christian leaders, socially and religiously celebrate this day saying that it is a celebration of the birth of Jesus.
But did you know that NOT ONCE did the apostles celebrate Jesus’s birthday.
No where in the new testament when Jesus walked the earth, in the book of Acts, or in the letters from the apostles did they celebrate the birth of Jesus.
The only time that the birth of Christ is described is when He was actually born in Bethlehem
….born in Bethlehem because Joseph, the husband of Mary, had to return to Bethlehem, his place of birth and the village of King David, for the Roman census as ordered by Caesar Augusts.
….during the fall season, after the harvest, while the shepherds were still with their sheep in the open land (before the cold season)....therefore not at the winter solstice time (which date was chosen some 300 years later by the ROMAN Catholic (general) Church).
….and the ones (the angels in the field with the shepherds, and the 3 wise kings.) that rejoiced at His birth did so in glorifying Him AS A FUTURE KING.
Is it not strange that such an immensely important ‘date of birth’ event was not celebrated yearly, or even once, by the apostles during the 3 YEARS that Jesus taught the truth?
His mother Mary knew very well when Jesus was born.
Why did she not inform the apostles of the actual date so that they would celebrate His birth since a date of birth is also important to Jews?
LORD Jesus never said to commemorate or celebrate His birth.
LORD Jesus did say , however, to commemorate His sacrifice and death …and resurrection as KING to return at the appointed time to rule mankind for 1000 years according to the Will of His Father, the One Creator God Who is Good…meaning that ONLY His Father’s Will will be done…meaning that man’s will will no longer be done...meaning that Man’s “FREEDOM” will be no more ( since satan will be chained up and imprisoned in the pit …i.e. the devil will not have his “FREEDOM”)
People celebrate “Christmas” because they prefer a baby Jesus (and Santa Claus) rather than a KING JESUS Who will rule with a rod of iron.
People celebrate Christmas because they, in reality, worship their “FREEDOM” to define Jesus in their own eyes...believing that their existence will somehow not die.
Open your eyes to the truth...because the One God will judge all... and repent and serve, as obedient and loving servants, the Will of the One Creator God Who is Good... Who gives existence to all that exists...and even the gift of eternal existence, ONLY to those that truly love and serve Him and do good according to His Will.
Will you decry this “Christmas” or will you continue to stand for your “FREEDOM?
