Bible Question:
I have just spent a long time on the Christian Post. It makes me so very sad to see the word easter, to describe the RESURRECTION DAY OF JESUS! Think who is honored when we use the word easter? Eastar was the goddess of fertility and the celebration of this satanic goddess was easter, thus easter eggs and bunnies. Every Resurrection Day we continue we continue to let the wong word for the most Holy Day to be called the worng word. This grieves me deeply. justme |
Bible Answer: While I do agree that Easter has a pagan origin, I cannot agree that the resurrection day of our lord is a holy day, (according to Jesus). It's "man's" holy day, not God. Jesus calls one day of the week holy, and that's His Sabbath day, which is the seventh day of the week. Gen 2:2-3, Exodus 20:8-11, Matt 12:8, Mark 2:27-28, Luke 23:56. Sunday sacredness is a Roman Catholic's defyance of holy scriptures. The Romans worshiped many gods, therefore, all the days of the week, and the majority of what we call holidays (ie. Holy-days), were named by pagans, sunday was named after the sun god, monday was named after the moon god, wednesday was named after the planet venus, and saturday was named after saturn. If you do some research, you would find that the Catholics admits to changing God's fourth commandment during a time known as the dark ages. Many Christians are ignorant to these things that happened in early church history. I'll give you another truth, Christmas is a joining together of two words, Christ and Mass, and Halloween was named in "honor" of the day before the roman pagans "hallowed" or worshiped all their dead saints, it was first called "All Hallowed Eve". Christians who go to church on sunday don't really understand that they are breaking God's fourth commandment, but Jesus said if you break one, you break all. (James 2:10-12) |
