8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
did you know the 3 Magi were almost certainly Zoroastrian, and since they kneeled to Christ (which technically makes them the very first Christians) this would imply Christianity is in fact a successor of not just Abrahamism but Zoroastrianism as well if not more so??? Or at least that's my headcanon.
>>217863520I learned that after reading the Gathas. And yes, in general term Christians consideres Zoroastrians also people of the Book. If you are interested about Zoroastrian-Christian link, read the legend Marco Polo heard about Zoroastrians origins.
