The Alpha and the Omega (Selected Scriptures) John MacArthur

Summary

The sermon critically deconstructs the origins and traditions of Christmas, arguing that the holiday lacks biblical or Christian foundations. The speaker systematically dismantles various Christmas elements like the date, Santa Claus, gift-giving, and decorations as having pagan or non-scriptural origins. Ultimately, the sermon concludes that while Christmas itself is meaningless, Christians can use the season as an opportunity to share the truth about Jesus and celebrate His significance daily, not just on December 25th.
