History of Christmas
Jesus Christ is a central figure in Christianity, believed by Christians to be the Son of God and the Savior of humanity. He is revered as both fully divine and fully human.
According to Christian teachings, Jesus was born to the Virgin Mary in Bethlehem, performed many miracles, preached about love, forgiveness, and salvation, and was crucified in Jerusalem around 30-33 AD.
Christians believe that Jesus’ death and resurrection provide salvation and eternal life to those who follow him and accept him as their Lord and Saviour.
Jesus’ teachings are recorded in the New Testament of the Bible, particularly in the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John).
His message emphasised the importance of loving God and one’s neighbour, and living a life of compassion, humility, and service.
Christmas has its origins in both religious and cultural traditions. It is primarily a Christian holiday, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to have been born around 4 BCE in Bethlehem.
The exact date of Jesus’ birth is uncertain, but December 25th was chosen in the 4th century by the Roman Empire, possibly to coincide with pre-existing pagan festivals like the Roman feast of Sol Invictus, which celebrated the winter solstice.
Over time, Christmas evolved into a blend of religious observance and secular customs. In medieval Europe, Christmas was marked by feasts, performances, and church services.
By the 19th century, Christmas became more family-centred, with traditions such as gifts, tree decorating, and the figure of Santa Claus, inspired by St. Nicholas, a 4th-century bishop known for his generosity.
