Christmas In January For Orthodox And Armenian Churches

[@yakovmatityahu]

Be thankful that as a Christian you are able to celebrate Christmas freely without any fear...there are many many Christians who fear for their lives in many countries.

[@tiffanym8494]

Exactly God help them

[@vannakinder352]

Like my cousins the Palestinians of 48 who have been threatened with assaults by Yamina supporters. Do not think I do not see through what you are trying to push.

[@Ashleii]

Yes . Thank God for the Muslim past of iraq , Egypt, Syria , Palestinian, for at least people of the book were given freedom to worship. We all know who forced Jews out of the Middle East and into Israel. And by the way the “countries of particular concern” are According to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom's 2020 report, Christians in Burma, China, Eritrea, India, Iran, Nigeria, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Vietnam

We Ethiopian Orthodox Church celebrated Christmas on January 6/2024 too✝️💕

[@ellenoakley3723]

I'm Armenian and I love this video. It shows one of our traditions it also shows the peace between Christian Armenians and Muslims in Iraq.

[@abdullahhussein3775]

French Toast The church in Iraq shown is in Iraqi Kurdistan. It is not in the Arabic part of Iraq where Christians are being killed and discriminated. Merry Christmas from a new convert to christianity. I have been twice to Armenia. Beautiful country with beautiful and kind people.

[@ellenoakley3723]

1Mean_ CTS-V thanks, we also have Muslim Armenians in Hamshen.

[@ellenoakley3723]

1Mean_ CTS-V they live alongside Georgians and Laz, but they avoid mixing to keep their Armenian identity going.

[@ellenoakley3723]

1Mean_ CTS-V my great great grandpa was from Artvin. Sadly Hamshen Armenians are the only community of Armenians left in Western Armenia. Most Rize Hamshen Armenians were assimilated into becoming Turks and now speak a Turkish dialect with Armenian words. However, Hope, Artvin Hamshen Armenians still speak Armenian.

[@ellenoakley3723]

1Mean_ CTS-V no but I like to learn about the Hamshen Armenians since they're the only few Armenians of Turkey that still speak Armenian.

[@MrLeo-ox8cn]

I’m a Coptic Orthodox Christian and I celebrate on 7 of January

[@H.C.Q.]

You should visit Axum Ethiopia, there is a church there that houses the holy Ark of the Covenant. I like the Coptic branch of Christendom.

The real Christmas is on January 6th, the day Jesus was born. But Catholic church moved it back to December 25th to replace the pagan day of the sun.

[@jktomas]

Did you just made that up? Because I am pretty sure no one knows for sure when Jesus was born or if such person actually existed. But apparently it is unlikely that it happened in winter because the story says there were shepphards and they don't work in winter.

[@NaderR]

jktomas Most accurate date is Jan 6 although it's not completely accurate. But for sure it's not December 25th.

[@jktomas]

+NaderR Alright, source please then. How do people who claim this explain the sheppards? How did they calculate this if there is literally no clue about the day in the bible and that is the only source about Jesus?

How about Eritrean and Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahdo and Egyptian Coptic Orthodox Christians we also celebrate Christmas 7th January

[@mtolla05]

Hello, why didn't you include the African countries. Ethiopia and Eritrea, which were one of the first countries to accept Christianity. Is it because it's in Africa?

[@vannakinder352]

They did tho, Punt kingdom( modern day South Sudan and Sudan) was also the first to accept Christianity. Also footage in Eritrea as well as filming is hard for a short video just like the amount of time and energy it takes to get footage from Iran or Kyrgyzstan. Also technically the first to accept Christianity as a nation was Armenia.

[@bostongirlsandy]

What a great video!

You failed to show other Orthodox celebrating January 7th such as Ethiopian and Egyptian/ Coptic. Yet the real problem is when you showed the Bishop of Rome in Vatican allegedly wishing peace to the Orthodox. LOL! That is very insulting to the Orthodox.

[@stevepetrovic8344]

Alexandre Ashwood We cant forgive what Vatican did to ortodox people.

[@stevepetrovic8344]

Christos Evangelion As a eastern ortodox myself I agree with both of you.Not a hater but cant forgive and forget what Pope and Vatican did to ortodox people and churches.Thats why Pope cant come to Serbia he knows that he is not welcome.

[@stevepetrovic8344]

Alexandre Ashwood Nope we cant.Cause it happening during centuries.Even today.

[@gepretti9518]

steve petrovic Wooowww. So what do you think when you say the Lord Prayer, forgive our trespasses as we forgive tgose who trespass against us? is it just a lip service not a sincere prayer you offer. But do you even expect God Himself to forgive your sins??

[@stevepetrovic8344]

ge pretti This is not me as a just one person.This is the thoughts of all nation.We cant forget things thag happend even if that was 50 years ago or more.When I pray I ask for forgiveness but I never did something like that persecutions or killing or harming anyone.If I made a mistake I did it on my harm not anyone else.So its not the same.I can forgive.I forgive lot of things l.But when someone is tryin to destroy your country and nation for centuries and its happening to this date....you cant let go easily......

[@kr00m]

I was oblivious that the Julian calendar is still in use by some. Learn something new every day.

[@djoleyt]

+kr00m You get use to.. Among my people, we write with two alphabets (Cyrillic and Latin), use two calendars, divide on two nations (Croats and Serbs).. After some time you develop culture that celebrate those things.

[@LoveRachelXOXOXO]

stefani cvetanoska not Christlike manner to yell at me. I’m Greek Orthodox. The Greek Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas on December 25.

[@gepretti9518]

LoveRachelXOXOXO Oww just knew it. If you can tell me if it is newly observed or not. Curious.

[@LoveRachelXOXOXO]

ge pretti 1923. The antiochian church and a few others also joined us in moving to the corrected date sometime around or after that time. Some Greek churches rebelled at first from the new calendar but eventually it was made official and those churches either switched or fell out of communion with us.

[@viktoria8189]

There are different branches. For example in my country - Belarus - there are two major branches: catholic (christmas - 25th of December) and russian orthodox (christmas - 7th of January). Both dates are state holidays and days off. It's probably different in different countries too.

[@viktoria8189]

Belarus - celebrating by going to the church.

[@liannapfister8255]

0:38...how?

[@liannapfister8255]

I had to go look it up. The Julian calendar is older & less precise than the Gregorian calendar the rest of us use. It has 3 fewer days in every 400 years, so it moves faster. Those on the Julian calendar basically call January 7 December 25

[@jayd4ever]

Christians who believe in the essentials like the trinity, jesus being dying for our sins, being crucified and resurrecting and ascending to heaven need to unite forget the differences and where was this video from
