Ironside's Views on Christmas
From "Lectures on the Book of Revelation"

Published In 1920
Page 301 of his book states the following concerning the
celebration of Christmas:
"It is a lamentable fact that Babylon's principles and
practices are rapidly but surely pervading the churches that
escaped from Rome at the time of the Reformation. We may see
evidences of it in the wide use of high-sounding
ecclesiastical titles, once unknown in the reformed
churches, in the revival of holy days and church feasts such
as Lent, Good Friday, Easter, and Christ's Mass, or, as it
is generally written, Christmas."
"Some of these festivals . . . when they are turned into
church festivals, they certainly come under the condemnation
of Galatians 4:9-11, where the Holy Spirit warns against the
observance of days and months and times and seasons. All of
them, and many more that might be added, are Babylonish in
their origin, and were at one time linked with the Ashtoreth
and Tammuz mystery-worship. It is through Rome that they
have come down to us; and we do well to remember that
Babylon is a mother, with daughters who are likely to
partake of their mother's characteristics."
