Well, it's pretty certain He wasn't born in December. The world celebrates on that day because 300 something years after Jesus' birth a particular Pope declared that day to be the Messiah's birthday.
Why would you believe in Christmas if you aren't certain Yeshua was born then? I'm not sure I understand.

Well, I believe He was more than likely born during Feast of Tabernacles which is not in December but usually October or November. The timing would have been perfect as the people would have been staying in "booths". Since other major events in His life occurred during feasts it stands to reason His birth would also. Just a thought..

Nowhere in the Bible does it give the exact day of Jesus' birth. December 25th is a day that we have set aside to celebrate his birth. Just celebrate the fact that he was born so that you can have the choice to be in heaven with him. Dont worry about the details. Love him as he loves you. Merry Christmas!

Is it just a day at the end of the year,
A season of joy, merry making and cheer,
Is it people and presents and glittering trees?
Ah no, it is more than any if these.
For under the tinsel and hidden from sight,
Is the promise and meaning of that first Christmas night,
When the shepherds stood in wondering awe,
And felt transformed by what they saw.
So let us not in our search for pleasure.
Forget our right to this priceless treasure.
For Christmas is still a God given day,
And let us remember to keep it that way.
