Subject: "nun" verse at Psalm 145:13 not in NASB |
Bible Note: 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 |
