Whats the feast of navity in respects to the sun?

December 25th is the day the pagans celebrated the winter solstice as a day of worship to the sun god. The church somewhere along the line changed it to attract pagans.

My word:o this gets stranger and stranger:prayer:
Now I know how my bro Job felt :D

http://www.kingdombiblestudies.org/Job/Job.htm
Job

Job 19:15 One sojourning of house of me, and maid-servants of me to a stranger/02114 zuwr they are reckoning me, alien/05237 nokriy I became in eyes of them.

Psalm 69:8 One being a stranger/02114 zuwr to my brothers, and an alien/05237 nokriy to sons of my mother.

http://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=H2114&t=KJV

Strong's Number H2114 matches the Hebrew זוּר (zuwr), which occurs 77 times in 76 verses in the Hebrew concordance of the KJV

AV — stranger 45, strange 18, estranged 4, stranger + 0376 3, another 2, strange woman 2, gone away 1, fanners 1, another place 1

In all fairness, Pope Leo fretted about it and seems to have done his best to disassociate the two.

Having therefore so confident a hope, dearly beloved, abide firm in the Faith in which you are built: lest that same tempter whose 132tyranny over you Christ has already destroyed, win you back again with any of his wiles, and mar even the joys of the present festival by his deceitful art, misleading simpler souls with the pestilential notion of some to whom this our solemn feast day seems to derive its honour, not so much from the nativity of Christ as, according to them, from the rising of the new sun
NPNF-212. Leo the Great, Gregory the Great | Christian Classics Ethereal Library

New sun is a reference to winter solstice.

Pope Leo I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Venerated in Roman Catholic and Eastern Catholic Churches, Eastern Orthodoxy, Anglican Church

and

Pope St. Leo the Great - Early Church Father and Doctor of the Church

His feastday is Febrary 18 in the Orthodox Church.
Ahhh thanks :thumbsup:
So which Pope are the EO's taking about here :confused:

http://www.christianforums.com/t5805969-86/#post37210170
What would it take for Orthodoxs to come under Pope

quote: The Pope would renounce his Roman Catholicism and become Orthodox.
There is nothing that would cause the Church as a whole to join with him.

Probably Benedict XVI, since they were talking about a reunion of the churches. not sure though.
:)
Hmmm.....this is interesting

Orthodox Heritage

The Papacy and Its Unholy State: A Worldwide W a k e - u p C a l l to Orthodox Leaders

Pope Benedict XVI reasserted the "universal primacy" of his Roman Catholic church, approving a document released proclaiming that Orthodox Churches are "defective."
This was the Pontiff’s latest manner of insulting Jesus Christ and His True Church...............

But this poll isn't talking about sun worship or the appearance thereof.
Yeah. All other forms of idolitry are off the table, never mind we have a pope saying not to even look like a heathen (in this case, sun worshiper).
Good point.
