. However, after over 2000 years Christians are still waiting for his second coming for them to go to heaven. A "portion" from the bible says Jesus will come unexpectedly like a Thief. For this reason, Christians are advised to be prepared all the time so Jesus will take them along to paradise, otherwise they will be thrown in a pit called "hell fire".
It should be noted that today is also the "purported birthday" of another powerful man and a famous scientist, Isaac Newton. He really was born on Christmas Day in 1642 as it was counted in England under the Julian calendar. But with the switch to Gregorian, his birthday suddenly slid to January 4, 1643.
Sir Isaac Newton was an English physicist and mathematician. He is widely known for formulating the laws of motion and universal gravitation. His father, also named Isaac Newton, died three months before his premature birth . When Newton was three, his mother remarried to a Pastor. The young Isaac disliked his stepfather and maintained some enmity towards his mother for marrying him.
Because of his secrecy over his religious beliefs, Newton has been described as a Nicodemite. He thinks worshipping Christ as God was idolatry, to him the fundamental sin. In his days, he refused to take holy orders in the Church of England, perhaps because he privately rejected the doctrine of the Trinity. Beyond his work on the mathematical sciences, Newton dedicated much of his time to study the bible.
