Birthdays - Supplement to the sermon “Happy Birthday! Or Maybe Not?”



Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - November 23, 1953

Herbert W Armstrong - November 23, 1953

“Nowhere does the Bible tell us to celebrate Christ's birthday. Only PAGANS celebrated birthdays, and THE BIBLE CONDEMNS THE CHRISTMAS TREE WITH ITS PRESENTS ON IT.”

Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - November 21, 1960

Herbert W Armstrong - November 21, 1960

“But even if one believes December 25 to be Christ's birthday —even if one did not realize that celebrating birthdays is a HEATHEN custom, and not Christian”

Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - December 11, 1961

Herbert W Armstrong- December 11, 1961

“People suppose that Christians are taught by the Bible to give birthday presents. NOWHERE does the Bible recognize honoring birthdays, except by pagans who are in defiance of God.”

Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - December 13, 1963

Herbert W Armstrong- December 13, 1963

“In the BIBLE, only pagans celebrate birthdays. CHRIST IS NOT IN IT!“

Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - November 11, 1964

Herbert W Armstrong- November 11, 1964

“And only PAGANS observe birthdays! It's a PAGAN custom which GOD FORBIDS—and you DISOBEY HIM WHEN YOU DO IT!”

Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - December 14, 1964

Herbert W Armstrong - December 14, 1964

“But look at the FACTS! December 25 is not Jesus Christ's birthday! Jesus was not born at this season of the year! And the idea of celebrating birthdays is NOT Christian, but an old heathen, pagan custom! None of the Apostles ever celebrated Jesus' birthday!”
