Awakened to Deliver – The Birth of Jesus

Day 1: Should Christians Celebrate Christmas?

Key Verse: Romans 14:5–6 — “One person values one day over another… The one who observes the day, observes it for the Lord.”

Episode Highlights

• Many believers struggle with whether Christmas should be celebrated.

• Scripture does not forbid honoring a day unto the Lord.

• God looks at the heart behind the celebration, not the calendar date.

• Romans 14 affirms freedom to honor days when done for the Lord.

• Christmas is not commanded — but neither is it condemned.

• Celebrating Jesus’ birth is not pagan when Christ is the focus.

• Pagan misuse of dates or symbols does not give ownership over creation.

• The earth, seasons, and days belong to the Lord.

• The Christmas tree is not an idol unless it is worshiped.

• The exact date of Jesus’ birth is not the issue — the truth it proclaims is.

• The enemy seeks to rob believers of joy, worship, and clarity.

• Christmas celebrates the Incarnation — God entering human history.

• The birth of Jesus marks the beginning of Satan’s defeat.

• Christians can celebrate Christmas boldly, joyfully, and without fear.
