Bible Question: what does Easter mean |
Bible Answer: Acts 12:4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. Here it is Gr. Passover I am sure you know by now that The Roman Catholic church set up the idea of celebrating Easter as the resurrection of the Lord. Now today those that do not see it as commandment from the Bible might still use it to evangelize all the poor ignorant sinners that are not yet born again that will visit their church on that day when they do not go to church any other day. God looks at the heart. And if you love people you will use every opportunity to win them to Christ and the Story of the Crucifixtion and Resurrection of Christ is somthing you should preach on that day since your church might be filled with sinners who have never really understood it. So it is not a sin to celebrate the day as such. |
