 Preach The Cross And Not The Manger | Christmas
Their knowledge of the Lord is corrupted with the legend, the myth and the fantasy of a secular holiday which traditions come from the pagan and the fairy tale.
I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain." The apostle would class the religious observance of "Christmas", a return to the "weak and beggarly elements," with the "will-worship" characteristic of the "commandments and doctrines of men" which are to perish and are of no spiritual value (Colossians 2:20-23).
Thus, we need to move away from the manger and His birth to other things of great importance, all the way to His death upon the cross and His resurrection from the dead by which He became Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

 From the Manger to the Cross (1912)
From the Manger to the Cross was made within a decade of Vatican film list honoree The Life and Passion of Jesus Christ (1902-05), yet the differences between these two very early silent Jesus films — bundled together on a single DVD — are striking.
