Scripture does not mention Christmas by name, but it does contain several passages that are relevant to the celebration of Christmas. One of the most significant is the prophecy in Isaiah 9:6, which states that "a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be upon his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." This prophecy foretells the coming of Jesus, who is believed to be the messiah and savior of the world.
