Subject: Easter questions |
Bible Note: Dear Angel1, You expressed the desire to mommapbs to overturn Easter and replace it with Resurrection Sunday. You wrote " Mommapbs-definitly "ressurection day " is more worth celebrating than " Ishtar" Lets start getting rid of the false gods. and ,yes, it would wreek havoc with our vacation schedules-God Bless--angel1 Have you found "Ishtaritism" to be a problem in your church? Does your church call Ishtar "Easter"? I must confess my questions were made "tongue in cheek" but I don't mean to be cruel in the asking of them. I do want to know what has promted this negative reaction to a centuries old church tradition. The anti-easter campaign seems to be a modern day phenomena. Were the leaders of the past all asleep lo these many years? Of course not! The problem is there is no problem. The world will continue to rebel against God and His Christ until the 2nd Coming. They are spiritualy dead and cannot understand or recieve spiritual things. So they will not be moved what ever we change the name to. Those who believe the Gospel will be brought into the Church and will learn the true meaning of Easter. Can you give me one positive consequence occuring from this campaign? How do you propose to accomplish this goal? Peace and Grace, John |
