compliment of d season to every one,
I would want to warn us before proving which date Christ was born, I want us to lay aside every doctrine of my pastor say my pastor said and judge scriptures with d eyes of faith.
our fathers in d Lord said Christ was born on the 25th of DEC without proving it with d scriptures becos they av no prove wat so ever but by God wisdom and knowledge through research and finding I will want Us to take it with ease before conclusion if it truth of myth

First, we know that shepherds were in the fields
watching their flocks at the time of Jesus' birth
( Luke:2:7-8 ). Shepherds were not in the fields
during December. According to Celebrations: The
Complete Book of American Holidays, Luke's
account "suggests that Jesus may have been
born in summer or early fall. Since December is
cold and rainy in Judea, it is likely the shepherds
would have sought shelter for their flocks at
night" (p. 309).
Similarly, The Interpreter's One-Volume
Commentary says this passage argues "against
the birth [of Christ] occurring on Dec. 25 since the
weather would not have permitted" shepherds
watching over their flocks in the fields at night.
Second, Jesus' parents came to Bethlehem to
register in a Roman census ( Luke:2:1-4 ). Such
censuses were not taken in winter, when
temperatures often dropped below freezing and
roads were in poor condition. Taking a census
under such conditions would have been self-
defeating.
Given the difficulties and the desire to bring
pagans into Christianity, "the important fact
then . . . to get clearly into your head is that the
fixing of the date as December 25th was a
compromise with paganism" (William Walsh, The
Story of Santa Klaus, 1970, p. 62).
If Jesus Christ wasn't born on December 25, does
the Bible indicate when He was born?
The biblical accounts point to the fall of the year
as the most likely time of Jesus' birth, based on
the conception and birth of John the Baptist.
Since Elizabeth (John's mother) was in her sixth
month of pregnancy when Jesus was conceived
( Luke:1:24-36 ),
we can determine the
approximate time of year Jesus was born if we
know when John was born. John's father,
Zacharias, was a priest serving in the Jerusalem
temple during the course of Abijah ( Luke:1:5 ).
Historical calculations indicate this course of
service corresponded to June 13-19 in that year
( The Companion Bible, 1974, Appendix 179, p.
200).it was on thus very course of abijah which was stated in 1 Chronicles 24:10 The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,"abijah was d ancestor of Zacharias which were to minister twice in a year cos d lot was divided 1 Chronicles 27:1 Now the children of Israel after their number, to wit, the chief fathers and captains of thousands and hundreds, and their officers that served the king in any matter of the courses, which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year, of every course were twenty and four thousand." so it was d turn of Zacharias to minister at d temple DAT year which history pointed to BTW June 13-19 of DAT same year
It was during this time of temple service that
Zacharias learned that he and his wife Elizabeth
would have a child ( Luke:1:8-13 ). After he
completed his service and traveled home, d distance home will take about 2miles which will take an old man a journey of 2days home
so let say he got home BTW June 21-22 and meet with His wife (sexually) and she conceived according to d words of d Lord

Elizabeth conceived ( Luke:1:23-24 ). Assuming
John's conception took place near the end of
June, adding nine months brings us to the end of
March as the most likely time for John's birth.
Adding another six months (the difference in ages
between John and Jesus) brings us to the end of
September as the likely time of Jesus' birth.
I believe with dis simple explanation will now understand d likely month Christ was born becos temperature is below freezing points in Judea which makes it impossible for census to take place at December due to d whether condition
I av not come to judge any who celebrate Christmas but always have it in mind DAT Christ was not born 25th of DEC rather let celebrate him every day of our life for d salvation of our soul.
bible says d spirit of God will guide us into all truth which include d truth abt is birth.
