Oh, my goodness...can you read or comprehend what you read...I did not ask you to tell me what holiday is coming up in a couple of weeks, my question was for you to cite ANY Scriptures that support his birth taking place when you claim it does, on Dec 25th.
If I said he died in March or April, I could show Scripturally that it shows he died on Nisan 14 (Jewish calendar). Exodus 12:6; Luke 22:14-20
If I said Christians are to keep observing his death until he arrives, I also could show you that Scripturally. 1 Corinthians 11:23-26
So, now I am asking you to show me Scripturally where it shows he was born on Dec 25 (Kislev/Tevet Jewish calendar) and where are Christians told to keep observing his birth?

God's birthday will be coming up in a few weeks. Can't wait.
You at least attempt to use Scriptures in regard to being the 'Creator' or not. Can you cite any Scriptures that would show that this so-called birthday is in a few weeks from now?

Prepare to get Pelted by Symbolic Hailstones
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/idhmflud3p4?si=9xc4svrhxslduwvz.
so david schafer a member of the teaching commitee and a helper to the governing body has come out yesterday with a new video that goes through the king of the north, the hailstones message and other things in the wake of the possibility of a ww3 and especially now that tensions are escalating with russia so he is making quite a few end time arguments and i will be expanding on those one by one but today let's see what he has about the hailstones message of the end(video) so this is the paragraph in question, paragraph 14 from article 20 of the watchtower 2020 study edition: "sometime after the start of the great tribulation, “the kings of the entire inhabited earth” will form a coalition of nations.

And contrary to Wt. hermeneutics none of the above fits well with their interpretation of WWI of autumn of 1914 to spring of 1918. Arguably it fits better right now in real time.
When WW3 breaks out, it will be the true time of the POD/horsemen.
This war will be the pretext for the nations giving their power to the UN, making it the 8th and final king. (The 8th king is the same as the KOTN.)
The 8th king coming to power and ruling as he will, serves as God's so-called hour of test/hour of judgment/judgment on the house of God. The whole world is God's house/field and people, wheat and weeds are all throughout. When this 'HOT' comes about there are only two outcomes:
1. People (weeds) who go along/support the 8th king, which would mean you are rejecting God (apostasy) and his kingdom. These are the people who will be killed off at Armageddon, after the 42 months.
2. People (wheat) who reject the 8th king, being willing to undergo the tribulation that that will bring upon them for doing so. These people are who will make up the GC and some among them will be who are chosen to rule with Jesus.
Those refusing to summit to the 8th king/refuse to take the MOTB, etc. are God's true people/temple who are trampled upon for the period during the 8th king rule. (42 months/GT) It does not matter right now of the many different false understandings/beliefs that are held right now among those who will prove to be wheat. All that matters is if you know now or by the time the 'HOT' comes that you are willing to choose #2. During that time of tribulation/captivity under the 8th king that all will be undergoing who are refusing him, all these will come to the same understandings/beliefs that need be.
All who chose #1 will know after the 42 months when they see Jesus coming that they are weeds and will be done away with.

[12-1-19 WT- “Thousands of the readers of Pastor Russell’s writings believe that he filled the office of “that faithful and wise servant,” and that his great work was giving to the Household of Faith meat in due season. His modesty and humility precluded him from openly claiming this title,]
[6-1-01 WT- Jesus set out the principle: “Do not you be called Rabbi, for one is your teacher, whereas all you are brothers. Moreover, do not call anyone your father on earth, for one is your Father, the heavenly One. Neither be called ‘leaders,’ for your Leader is one, the Christ. But the greatest one among you must be your minister.” (Matthew 23:8-11) A congregation of brothers precludes having a proud clergy class that honors itself with high-sounding titles and elevates itself above a laity.]
[3-15-15 WT- Third, consider some of our recent refinements in understanding. For example, our clarified understanding of “the faithful and discreet slave,” published in the July 15, 2013, Watchtower, thrilled us. (Matt. 24:45-47) It was explained that the faithful slave is the Governing Body,]
[12-1-90 WT- We have the opportunity to show love for our brothers who take the lead in the congregation or in connection with Jehovah’s visible organization worldwide. This includes being loyal to “the faithful and discreet slave.” (Matthew 24:45-47)]

Trump, love him or hate him, is famous for his disdain for the United Nations. Throughout his first term, he made it crystal clear that he views the UN as a toothless bureaucracy that undermines national sovereignty. His “America First” policies prioritized pulling away from globalist agendas, cutting funding to international bodies, and renegotiating agreements to benefit the United States. It’s safe to say that Trump is the last person on Earth who would willingly hand over power to the UN.
Hence, knowing he would win the election they tried to assassinate him. With that failing, their hope was that just maybe Harris would win. With that failing to happen their last-ditch attempt is to bring about WW3 before he takes office in Jan. Then with that they will give power over to the UN.
But as much as they might want the UN to fit the role of the “scarlet-colored wild beast” from Revelation, reality just isn’t cooperating. The UN is far from the global powerhouse they imagine
Don't believe it coming from the WTS, believe it coming from the UN chief himself.
[United Nations: Guterres warns ‘we are on the edge of an abyss’
The UN’s chief painted a grim picture of a divided and polarized world and urged solidarity among nations.…The world has never been more threatened or more divided, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told nations of the world on Tuesday as he kicked off the 76th General Assembly session, urging all 193 member states to “wake up” and realize that solidarity is the only way out of disaster.] -

Just days after the United States allowed Ukraine to use its long-range missile for deep strikes within Russian territory; President Vladimir Putin has approved changes to his country’s nuclear doctrine.
The changes to the nuclear doctrine have been approved by Putin on Tuesday.
The most noticeable change is that it expands the conditions under which nuclear weapons can be used by Moscow.
To put things into perspective, Russia can now use nuclear weapons in instances when a non-nuclear state supported by nuclear power attacks its area.
The timing suggests that it is the U.S. President Joe Biden’s approval to Kyiv for using the MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) for deep strikes within Russian territory that has brought about this shift in the Russian nuclear doctrine.
When reports of the U.S. go-ahead for use of ATACMS had surfaced, Kremlin had warned that it could lead to a significant new round of escalation in the ongoing war.
The revised doctrine approved by Putin states that nuclear strikes by Moscow can be justified in case of aggression against the Russian Federation “by any non-nuclear state with the participation or support of a nuclear state.”
It further states that nuclear retaliation by Russia can be carried out if there is a deployment of missile defense systems, medium- and short-range ballistic missiles, precision non-nuclear and hypersonic weapons, strike drones and directed energy weapons by a potential adversary.Putin’s new nuclear rules shock West as Ukraine strikes Russia with US missile

if russia gets away with invading ukraine they will not stop there,
Nonsense! Where would they go next? All are NATO counties. That is the whole reason Russia is taken a stand with Ukraine. NATO keeps expanding to try to take over Russia and Russia isn't having it. Ukraine is Russia's last buffer zone before NATO puts Russia in checkmate.
it's about Biden escalating the war into WW3
The fact that they are now allowing Ukraine to do this means that they were not allowing them up until this point. The reason for not allowing was said because they didn't want to 'escalate' the war with Russia. If that is the case and they are now allowing it, it can only mean one thing, they want to 'escalate' the war with Russia.
