You might want to read my post #578 and ask yourself why such hostility against biblical holidays in the first place. Don't you agree in Christ we have freedom? Can we not use such freedom to choose to commemorate His death and resurrection on Passover rather than Easter?
Regarding Christmas, do you believe it's pagan? If you don't, then why ask me the question? If you do, do you refuse the paid day off? Do you refuse everything pagan yourself?
I speak against Christmas but I never condemn those who choose to commemorate His birthday so why wouldn't you do the same?

In my studying of the feasts, I see all three feasts as having "spiritual relevance" for the Christian today. They are all past present and future, and the feasts of tabernacles involve the other two because tabernacles is mostly for edification about all God has done, therefore increasing faith in the believer. This is a book I wrote about the three feasts. Three Feasts of the Pentateuch
2 Chronicles 8:13
13 Even after a certain rate every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.
Isn't it nice to ignore those people who consistently show hatred toward anything other than what they have already preconceived according to a stalemated doctrine? One just gets to the point of being tired of totally unedifying remarks. Simplicity in Christ doesn't mean to be simple minded.

While no man is perfect, nor does he walk perfectly, pride and arrogance and a love of Babylon that disables a soul from seeing the truth must surely be shunned in favor of a love of truth, no matter what beloved pagan rites must go. What is not profitable must be traded for real treasure that will last thru eternity, or there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth!
Have you looked at the fast days as prophecy? I hope to look into that very soon. I think those days will be turned into days of great joy!
Thanks for the link to your book! I look forward to looking into that!
I have a long ignore list. After a while man's motives become crystal clear, and unfortunately the devil still walks among us.
GOD SPEED THE DAY?

this is future.
Revelation 21
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
no temple, no moon.

Hebrews 9:1-7
1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For there was a tabernacle made ; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread ; which is called the sanctuary.
3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all ;
4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded , and the tables of the covenant;
5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly .
6 Now when these things were thus ordained , the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
Revelation 11:19
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Would you say that the stone tablets are still there in the ark? Maybe that's why no one can find them.
1 Kings 8:9
9 There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

Because they lock the doors and I can't get in.
Because my employers aren't giving me the day off for a religious holiday. They give it because it's a civil holiday. I take the civil day off the same as I would take the 4th of July off.

Galatians 3
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
Deuteronomy 28
15 “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

and how did i do that but to show the woman that her religion places her under a curse (per the scriptures i posted), and i had intended to admonish her for referring to The Lord's church as BABYLON. but the irony of her religion being today's Babylon was too much.
Galatians 4
21 Tell me, you who want to be under law, do you not listen to the law?
clearly not.
24 [s]This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants: one proceeding from Mount Sinai bearing children [t]who are to be slaves; [u]she is Hagar. 25 Now this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem above is free; [v]she is our mother.

I believe the day itself if just another day, and just another civil holiday, which is what our country recognizes. I don't take the day off because it's Christmas. I take the day off because they gave me Dec. 25th off.
I believe the intent to make that day into a religious holiday with a religious observance, though is the issue.

Again go back to what I said. I said YOU ACCEPT PAYMENT for a holiday you believe is PAGAN. And whether you like it or not just because you can JUSTIFY IT by saying it is also a civil holiday DOES NOT change the fact you have quite clearly said you believe it is a pagan holiday. Aren't you doing the very same thing you claim others have done by celebrating Christmas as a Christian holiday?
