If we still have to turn from sin and try so damn hard to earn our way to heaven even when Jesus died for us so that we can have eternal life in heaven, why not just do it ourselves without Jesus?
You are mistaken. You repent trust and believe in Jesus Christ then HE SAVES you from your sins. He gives you a new heart and new spirit and the Holy Spirit to teach and guide you. It's not hard at all. Jesus does it all. He is the Saviour. The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us of all sin. There is power in the blood. People who see the Bible as a rule book 'trying' to keep rules and condemning others have made up a counterfeit religion in His name
The Bible doesn’t say nothing on celebrating the birthday of jesus. Nor does it say it was on 25 of December. If we continue to celebrate what the world created, are we G-ds people??
The Holy Spirit led me away from it within A few months of my conversion. Before I was saved I loved Christmas. After I was born again by the time Christmas rolled around it made me physically sick. It's a lie and practicing it can also discredit our faith in the eyes of unbelievers because they know it's a hijacked pagan feast.
