Warren W. Wiersbe Quote

In Greek the name Christ is χριστός (christos). The first letter looks like the English letter X. Every vocation has its shorthand, and those in the church used the letter chi (χ) to represent Christ in words that began with Christ-. So Xmas is an honorable abbreviation for Christmas. It was not intended to take Christ out of Christmas
