Yeah, here we are talking about holidays again. Sorry if this topic has been overdone in past threads, but I am in a rather confusing situation.
Okay, we celebrate Lord's Days (of couse), Reformation Day, and most of us Thanksgiving.
We don't celebrate Christmas, Easter, Good Friday, Ash Wednesday, Maunde Thursday, Holy Monday or Saturday, Trinity or Palm Sunday, All-You-Can-Eat Chinese Buffet Tuesday.(A little humor....very little!)
When asked by someone not Reformed the question is ,"Why do you not celebrate Christmas?"
Answer, "Because it is not in the Bible and was made up by the Roman Church."
Next question, "Well, is Reformation Day in the Bible? or did your Church make it up?"
See my problem.
Any advice?
