1 | "nun" verse at Psalm 145:13 not in NASB | Bible general Archive 3 | Emmaus | 164652 | ||
Commandment keeper, You seem to think calling (other) Christians pagans is being charitable. I really do wish you would have a merry Christmas whenever you think you should celebrate the birth of our Savior. Surely you believe that the coming of Jesus is a good thing worthy of joy and celebration. It is after all the Good news of the Gospel. The Scriptures are full of passages that speak of the joy at the coming of the Meassiah. Emmaus |

2 | "nun" verse at Psalm 145:13 not in NASB | Bible general Archive 3 | Commandment keeper | 164655 | ||
Please don't misunderstand me. I am not calling you or anyone else a pagan. i am simply stating that it is not a Holy day, but is derived from a Pagan day. If any one thinks they are honoring Messiah by keeping that day, it is not my business. It is between them and thier creator. I fact, the Bible tells us that if someone does something without knowing it is bad, Our Heavenly Father winks at that, He does not condemn them . But if anyone does something that they know is wrong, that person is responsible. It says, "if it is sin to you, it is sin. I agree the Bible is full of the joy of his coming. But that is not to be confused in such a way that we create false days , and call it in honor of him. In fact, it is just the opposite. You do not honor him at all by creating a lie. That date is not his birthday, but is a Satanic day. He is not mocked. He knows where that came from. The same place where all the rest of the pagan days came from. The catholic church. Halloween, Valentines day, Easter , etc, are all Pagan days. I know I will hear about Easter. There is no such day in the Bible. King James does mistranslate Passover for Easter, and some have that showing in the margin. |

Commandment keeper, You misunderstand so much, especially about the Catholic Church to which I belong. The Church does not say that December 25th is the birthday of Jeusus, it merely chooses to celebrate the birth of Jesus on that day since we do not know the exact day of His birth. And if that steals Satan's thunder and a pagan holiday and makes it a Christian Holyday, all the better, because all days and all time belongs to Christ. I say let's take over every single day and celebrate Christ on everyday and all the events of His life on various days. That is what the liturgical calendar is all about, sancrifying time and claiming it for Christ. What? We should leave the days in the control of the pagans? God forbid! More Holydays and Christian feast days, 365 days a year! Celebrate Jesus! Christmas and Easter everyday. Alleleuia! The celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus is only called Easter in English, no other language, and we all know in the English Christian context it means the Resuurection of Christ. In evey other language it is another word. Try Spanish for examle, in which it is called Pasch if I am not mistaked. What argument would you make against Pasch? That old "Easter refers to a pagan goddess" argument won't fly in that language and culture and they celeberate the same Resurrection in the same way we do on the same day. And that day changes evry year. Emmaus |
