What Is Christmas And Why We Are Celebrated On The 25th December

Dali Rao05 Mar, 2020Religion

Long ago, about 2000 years, the Lord selected two persons called virgin Mary and Joseph who were the citizens of Nazareth to be Jesus’s parents. One day God’s angel appeared to these persons and said that lord selected you to be the parents for his only son, who will become the savior for us. These two obeyed the God’s word and followed him. As the days passed on and the delivery time came for Mary, at that time the land where the couple lived were apart from the Roman Empire. The Emperor ordered all should be enrolled(or census) their names to pay tax to the country. So Mary and Joseph traveled almost 70 miles from Nazareth to Bethlehem with a donkey to carry their needy things to register their names in the census. When they reached the place no one gave them shelter that night because every room and house was occupied by the guests.
