Did God handed down the book to you or did it grow on a tree? Do you know what the Bible canon is and how it was decided what texts would go into the Bible? Or when was the Bible compiled and who kept it for centuries so that you can eventually get a printed copy? Do you know anything about Church history at all? Do you understand how stupid and unjustified Sola Scriptura is?

The Church tradition preceded the Bible. Christianity is a living tradition, the Church is the body of Christ indwelled by the Holy Spirit Christ sent to the Apostles on Pentecost. The Bible is a liturgical text of that tradition, not a book you read in your closet and interpret on your own.

To answer your question, the early Christians celebrated Jesus's birthday on the 25th around the 3rd c. and eventually the Church accepted the date officially after it was confirmed by scripture itself. Here's what St. John Chrysostom wrote about it:

John the Baptist was conceived during the Feast of Tabernacles (23 September). According to Luke 1, Annunciation was 6 months after that on 25 of March + 9 months of pregnancy = 25 December.

"Where does the Bible say..." is a stupid argument because not everything is spelled out there. The same argument is applied to Christ not being God because "He never said so" or God not being Trinity because the word is not in the Bible. It's all there but you need to be able to interpret it correctly and the only true interpretation is within the Apostolic Church that Christ established.
