EASTER IS A COVER-UP FOR THE GREATEST FRAUD OF ALL TIME
Easter is a pagan worldwide tradition involving many customs that were invented by rebranded paganism known as Christianity under the order of Constantine the High Priest of Dagon.
What is the origin of Lent and sunrise services?
How did rabbits, eggs and hot cross buns become associated with Messiah’s Resurrection?
Is Easter mentioned in the Scriptures?
Did the apostles and early Assembly keep it?
Most people follow along as they have been taught, assuming that what they believe and do is right. They take their beliefs for granted. Most do not take time to prove why they do the things that they do.
Why do you believe what you believe?
Where did you get your beliefs?
Is the source of your religious beliefs the Scriptures or some other authority?
If you say the Scriptures, are you sure?
What about Easter?
Since hundreds of millions keep it, supposedly in honor of Messiah’s Resurrection, then certainly the Scriptures must have much to say about it. Surely there are numerous verses mentioning rabbits, eggs and egg hunts, baskets of candy, hot cross buns, Lent, Good Friday and sunrise services not to mention Easter itself.
A Brief Look at Passover
The well-known Old Testament Passover story centers on YAHUAH’s deliverance of Isrealities from Egypt through ten miraculous plagues. These included how the death angel would “pass over” all the houses where the Isrealites lived. They were instructed to put blood over their doorposts to ensure that only the firstborn of Egypt would die. In this first Passover, it was only the blood of the slain lamb that protected each Isrealities home. While Egypt suffered the plague of death, the Isrealities firstborn were delivered by blood. By obeying YAHUAH’s command and by faith in His promise to protect them, they were spared from death.
The Passover account is found in Exodus 12:12-14. Verse 14 states that the Passover ceremony was commanded by YAHUAH to be an annual memorial feast to be kept by Isrealities “forever.” This command is repeated in Leviticus 23:5.. Exodus 12:15 introduces the seven-day festival called the Days of Unleavened Bread and also repeated in Leviticus 23:6-8, which was to immediately follow the Passover feast each year.
This is why Acts 12:3 states, “Then were the days of unleavened bread,” before mentioning the Passover in the next verse. These days were always kept in conjunction with one another.
No other Springtime custom encapsulates these celebrations of new life quite like Easter. From baby animals, to Easter eggs and Easter egg hunts, to sunrise Sunday services and more, Easter is a beloved tradition too many people.
Easter Sunday is the highlight of the Roman Catholic liturgical year when the resurrection of Messiah is celebrated.
According to their Catechism:
Easter is not simply one feast among others, but the “Feast of feasts,” the “Solemnity of solemnities,” just as the Eucharist is the “Sacrament of sacraments” (the Great Sacrament). St. Athanasius calls Easter “the Great Sunday” and the Eastern Churches call Holy Week “the Great Week.” The mystery of the Resurrection, in which Messiah crushed death . . . . (Catechism of the Catholic Church, Part 2, Sec. 1, Chapter 2, Article 1, #1169.)
The origins of Easter, however, reveal that it flows directly from ancient paganism. Shortly after the flood, Nimrod reestablished idolatry in the earth. After his death, Nimrod was promoted as the original sun god. His widow, Semiramis, was called the “queen of heaven.” Various cultures continued the idolatry of these original pagans under different names.
To the Egyptians, Semiramis was Isis. To the Babylonians, she was Beltis, consort to the god, Bel. To the Cannaanites she was Astarte. The Assyrians called her Ishtar.
The worship of these goddesses involved occult fertility practices. These degrading rites were practiced even by the Yasaralites when in apostasy. YAHUAH clearly denounced any Yasaralites involvement in these pagan celebrations.
“Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? The children gather wood, the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven; and they pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me to anger.” Jeremiah 7:17-18,
“And He said to me, ‘Turn again, and you will see greater abominations that they are doing.’ So He brought me to the door of the north gate of . . . [YAHUAH’s] house; and to my dismay, women were sitting there weeping for Tammuz.” Ezekiel 8:13-14,
Easter has no basis in the pure gospel message.All of its traditions are pagan origins.
Rabbits and dyed Easter eggs symbolize fertility.
Hot cross buns were the “cakes” offered to the queen of heaven Semiramis.
The forty days of weeping for Tammuz are now the 40 days of Lent leading up to Easter. Ezekiel 8:14
Sunrise services were performed by pagan priests to honor the sun god. Ezekiel 8:16
Celebration of Easter does not honor the death and resurrection of the Saviour. Participation in pagan practices honors Satan. Revelation 13:3
Easter is much more than a pagan imposter pretending to be Set-Apart.
As the years passed and the first Natsariym died, paganism began to corrupt the once-pure belief. The Church in Rome, greedy of ever greater power, sought ways to increase her influence.
Christians do not celebrate festivals but accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour and live according to the will of the Lord. All these festivals belong to the pagans ans Satan has cunningly put into Christianity sovyhat thr real essence of Christianity is lost and we live like Pagans believe only in celebrations but not in the real essence of Lord Jesus Christ. What does Christ has to with bunnys eggs and buns which herald the coming of Spring.
Galatians 4:10-11 American Standard Version (ASV)
Ye observe days, and months, and seasons, and years. I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain.
