Christ in Christmas.

Aside from the fact that Christian holidays, like Easter and Christmas all have pagan roots, of which the symbols are still very much present even in our modern celebrations (rabbits, eggs, decorated trees etc.)....

Aside from the fact that Christmas is celebrated in commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ, even though most historians agree that his birth was most likely not in December at all....


Aside from the fact that observance of these holidays are not scriptural at all....


Jesus did tell us how he wants to be remembered.  In Luke 22, Jesus sat down to the passover feast with his apostles and in v. 19 says this,


And he took bread, and gave thank, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you:  this do in remembrance of me.


Likewise the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.


Jesus' own words tell us what he wants us to do as a memorial of his life and sacrifice.  All that other stuff, let's not kid ourselves, that's not for him.  That's for us.
