The entire world celebrates Christ’s birth on December 25, but is that His actual birthday? Probably not.
Early Christian leaders like Hippolytus and John Chrysostom began observing Christ’s birth on this date. Over time it became the accepted date for celebration, offering an alternative to many pagan festivals happening at this time.
Many scholars question the accuracy of this date, and doubt the shepherds would be out with the sheep at night during the coldest time of the year. Looking at the conception and birth of John the Baptist, many believe Jesus was probably born in the fall.

How many times did God speak aloud to Jesus, what were these moments?
At His baptism
“As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased'” (Matthew 3:16–17).
At the Transfiguration
“While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!’
When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified” (Matthew 17:5–6).
Before the crucifixion
“Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘’ather, save me from this hour?’ No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name!’
Then a voice came from heaven, ‘I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.’ The crowd that was there heard it said it had thundered, others said an angel had spoken to him” (John 12:27–29).
After the last occasion, Jesus said, “This voice was for your benefit, not mine” (Jn 12:30), which is true of every incident.
