I love the subject of Jesus birth, but it has so little to do with the actual present Christmas celebration. Why isn't Jesus birth important enough to be taught from a biblical, historical standpoint, instead of from the old religious, pagan celebrations that we continue to celebrate?

First, let's look at something that I find very interesting and compelling from the perspective of God and the fact that God is perfect in all that He does.
Almighty God, the Father of Jesus Christ is not a willy, nilly God without a plan, without a purpose, everything that He does has a plan as well as a purpose!

The birth of His Son, the last "Sacrificial Lamb", 
(please take note of this).
The Sacrificial lamb of God was by God's intent, and we must ask how and why a lamb for temple sacrifice was chosen?

If we look at where Jesus was born, in Bethlehem, then we must believe that God had chosen Bethlehem for His reason. 
Bethelem is also the ' City of David ' - from whom Jesus was a direct decedent! Historically, just 1000 paces outside of Bethlehem was a place mentioned twice in The Old Testament, Genesis 35:21 and Micha 4:18 KJB, Migdal Edar, aka The Tower of the flock! This was a place chosen for the breeding and birth of the lambs that would be sacrificed at the temple, a very special place where everything was just as God would have it. The shepherds were not ordinary shepherds but shepherds under a ban of Rabbinism because of their necessary isolation from religious ordinances and their manner of life which rendered strict legal observances. They were dedicated to their lives of service to God and to the task of keeping the flocks that were chosen by the temple priests safe and sound for sacrifice.

The tower of the flock is described as a two-story stone building, with the second floor where the shepherds could get a good view of the flocks and the surrounding land. The first floor was where the shepherds would take the newborn lambs to prepare them and keep them from blemish, they had to be unblemished.

This property lay just outside of Bethlehem on the road from Jerusalem to Bethlehem, it was known as the Old Hebron Rd.
The sacrificial lambs were taken at birth, inspected for any blemish and the unblemished were wrapped in a sterile linen material called swaddling. They were wrapped snugly so as to replicate the mother's womb and to keep them from injuring themselves and becoming blemished.

The area on the first floor of the tower was not a dirty stable filled with horses, camels, cows, or any other common farm animal, it was very clean for the purpose of birthing these special lambs. 
The last sacrificial lamb of God {Christ} was very probably born at the Tower of the Flock at the direction of God who was in control of Jesus conception by The Holy Spirit and His birth. Far be it for me to question God's intent for the conception, birth, life, and death of my Lord Jesus Christ, what I do know is that He, God is capable of His intent, even His intent for you and me.

Stop with the Hollywood productions which have created the false story of Jesus birth for a religious purpose, and start looking for the truth, the obvious truth!
