The historians now say the tree started as a tree in church plays of the Middle Ages, the Tree of Paradise in the garden of Eden to be exact. People thought it neat, put their own up in homes, then some began to decorate it.
It was never worshipped by any Christians. Think about it. Why would Christians have worshipped anything not Christian?

The "Trinity" doctrine blasphemes Jehovah and Jesus.
by booker-t inthis is the last time i will post or read about the "trinity" doctrine because in my mind jehovah and jesus has enlightened me to see the real source of the so-called holy trinity.
satan is the originator of this unbiblical doctrine.
after i left jw's i felt i had to accept the trinity doctrine in order to be "saved".

Please correct me where this short 4-paragraph item of a friend is wrong. I did the underlining for emphasis.
THE FOUR MAJOR VIEWS OF GOD'S NATURE:
Catholic and almost all Protestant groups teach three totally different entities or persons have always existed from when time started included within what Romans 1:20 says is one “divine nature,” "Godship," "Godhead,” "divine nature" or deity depending on Bible version. The three are God the Father, Christ the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit.This belief called the trinity or Trinity adds that the Son and Holy Spirit share age, power, knowledge from or of God the Father as when an acorn may be only a day old but its genes have the Father oak tree's infinitely longer age, capacity and information. The Bible does not have the word "trinity" or Trinity in it but, as said, most believe the concept of Godhead or Godship is there at Romans 1:20 and elsewhere.
Finally, Unitarians teach the three do not form an overall Trinity, modern Modalists teach there is but one God who however has sometimes changed form into the Holy Spirit or Son of God, and Polytheists teach God is in fact gods or goddess, multiple persons, spirits or entities.
In ages past people sometimes killed others of different views about God’s nature being Trinity or Unitarian even though Romans 14 grants freedom to differ, but happily today more Christians believe in being tolerant and broadening out in fellowship while letting Bible reading teach on matters.

I did it!!!!
Yes! I, [email protected] did it.
Anybody else want some free Bible-based literature that overturns decades of Watchtower misinformation.... just email me... anytime. Hurray!
P.S. This literature can also literally save lives when it involves the blood transfusion issue.
Say, did you know most identical twins transfuse blood to each other through a shared placenta?
Now who's guilty of that? "Apostates" or God Almighty Whom I Also Love..........
Some of it also blows apart the many Watchtower lies about holidays. Yes, blame that on me too.... It's an honor!!!!!!
Email me now, come on, now! Wow, this is such exciting news I'd like to send the joy out all over this old world......!

Thanksgiving is celebrated in lots of nations including Canada. As to origins compare Leviticus 23:33, Deuteronomy 16:13, what Paul says of people thanking God for his life, (I Corinthians 1:11) and Romans 14 saying there is freedom in such things. British P ilgrim colonists gave thanks for survival and bounty, British colonies in what is now the USA had Thanksgiving, George Washington made it into a national holiday and Abraham Lincoln made it official in the USA.

As said it is celebrated not just in the U.S. but numerous nations planetwide.
Also, it began as the Feastival of Booth/Ingathering in the Bible.
Watchtower claims it is nationalistic and unBiblical are barefaced lies.

Thanksgiving is in the US, Canada, Phillipines, Guam, Liberia, German and Slavic lands etc. God began the annual harvest Festival of Booths or Festival of Ingathering celebrated in autumns by Israel. ( Lev 23:33, Deu 16:13) The New Testament notes Paul saying many gave thanks to God for having saved his life. (I Cor 1:11) Pilgrim colonists gave thanks for survival and bounty. The various British colonies in what is now America had Thanksgiving, George Washington made it a national holiday and Abraham Lincoln began regular celebration. How strange some claim it has no biblical basis or is a nationalistic American holiday!

BIRTHDAYS
Some people go around saying, as they are wrongly told to do so, that “mature” Christians should not celebrate birthdays.
In fact Jude 12 tells us that the earliest Christians enjoyed balanced merriment at "love feasts," get-togethers Luke 2:6 says that angels celebrated Christ's day of birth, and if you read first Job 1:3 and then Job 3:1,3 it is clear that the banquet days which Job's children celebrated were also birthdays.
Therefore those against birthdays are wrong in saying that in the Bible the only birthdays that are mentioned are in negative contexts, namely at the birthday of King Herod when he had John the Baptizer’s head chopped off, and when an ancient Egyptian king slew two servants on his birthday.
In fact a birthday is a time for honoring the One who caused such happiness, the Creator of Life Himself, and it is also a way of showing the person who receives a birthday that they are loved, not “worshipped” as those against birthdays also sometimes say.
Galatians 5:22 says that one of the fruits of God’s Holy Spirit is “joy...” or happiness, and so there is every reason to ignore such misinformation and continue in joyful celebration.
So, got a birthday coming? Then enjoy it to the fullest!
