Many purported preachers in America use the ignorant cliché concerning Christ being deleted from Christmas in the word “Xmas.”
This mistake shows the everlasting apathy and laziness of most of America's preachers and laity. It also indicates the need for Christians to learn the original language of the New Testament: koine Greek. The letter “x” is the Greek letter “chi” which is transliterated “ch.” Therefore, Christ is there but abbreviated.
The logo for biblecontroversy.com is the chiros which is composed of the Greek letters “chi’ and “rho.” They would be transliterated “ch” and “p.”
People will say, "Why do words and letters matter?" Well, your salvation might be at stake. Whether or not the Greek words "homoousious" meaning "same" or "homoiousios" meaning “like” is applicable to Christ as The Word means either Christ was God or simply a created creature.
There is a wonderful anecdote about a wife who cabled her husband about buying a $75,000 bracelet. The husband cabled back to her stating "No, price too high." However, the cable operator in transmitting the message, missed the signal for the comma. The woman received a message which read, "No price too high." She bought the bracelet; the husband sued the company and won.
With all the so-called freedom in this country and with Americans being so independent, it is somewhat of an irony for most Americans and Christians to be led by the nose.
