What God Said About Easter Celebration

The Man Who Saw God Face To Face

1. The Roman Empire, out of religious politics, removed the Passover feast, which Jesus attended and replaced it with their pagan festival called Easter. Just as Buhari did, when he became president, by removing Christian Religious Studies (CRK) and made Islam compulsory in Nigeria. His change was however reversed by the National Assembly (Senate and House of Representatives), because the Christians rejected it.
   


2. Easter is not one of the festivals of God. The catholic encyclopaedia says that Easter is the name of a goddess. Here is the record :
   
   “The English term, according to the Ven. Bede (De temporum ratione, I, v), relates to (tell, speak about, narrate) Estre, a Teutonic goddess of the rising light of day and spring, which deity, however, is otherwise unknown, even in the Edda (Simrock, Mythol., 362);”
   
   Confirm this fact by reading what God stated about His festivals in Leviticus chapter 23, saying,
   
   “And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 'The feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts.” Leviticus 23:1-2 Easter is not among the seven annual festivals God mentioned in Leviticus 23:1-end.
   


3. Besides, the explanation of Easter by the Catholic Encyclopaedia fulfills what God said about disobedient Christians and Jews,
   
   “Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit … and walk after other gods whom you do not know,” Jeremiah 7:8-10 in the above definition of Easter, the catholic encyclopaedia said that Easter is a goddess, “which deity, however, is otherwise unknown.” Even the enemy and antichrist confirms what God said.
   


4. The church insists of forty (40) days of fasting and prayer. But, God said His people should celebrate -
   
   “… and you shall rejoice (celebrate) before the Lord your God for seven days. 41 You shall keep it as a feast (celebration) to the Lord for seven days in the year. It shall be a statute forever in your generations.” Leviticus 23:40-41
   


5. During this period, catholic members abstain from eating meat. But, God said that His people should celebrate and eat as much meat as they want.
   
   “Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying: 'On the tenth of this month every man shall take for himself a lamb, according to the house of his father, a lamb for a household. 4 And if the household is too small for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next to his house take it according to the number of the persons; according to each man's need you shall make your count for the lamb. 5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats.” Exodus 12:2-6
   


6. The church members spend every Friday evening doing the Stations of the Cross. But, God said the Friday evening should be a Sabbath (Sabbath evening),
   
   “…from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your Sabbath." Leviticus 23:32
   


7. During the stations of the cross, people kneel down in front of carved images or pictures to sing, pray and worship, whereas God made it clear in the 2nd commandment, that people and church must not use images. The original 2nd commandment reads,
   
   “You shall not make for yourself a carved image - any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.” Exodus 20:4-6
   


8. The church teaches their members to dine and wine on the Easter day, by cooking rice and stew with boiled meat. But, God said that His people should roast the meat, not boiled. For God said,
   
   “Then they shall eat the flesh on that night; roasted in fire, with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. 9 Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted in fire — its head with its legs and its entrails.” Exodus 12:8-9
   


9. During the Easter and after the eaters day, foods, especially meat, used for the Easter celebration are still kept, re-cooked and eaten on the following days after the Easter. This is against the right procedure. But, God said,
   
   “You shall let none of it remain until morning, and what remains of it until morning you shall burn with fire.” Exodus 12:10-11
   


10. On the Easter night, the reverend fathers wash the feet of twelve select persons. This is contrary to what Jesus said. Jesus said the church should wash the feet of all members.
    
    “If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.” John 13:14-16
    


11. On the Easter day, the priests serve people bread only. That is the body of Christ. But, Jesus directed that the priests should serve people both bread and wine, saying,
    
    "Drink from it, all of you (all the members). 28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many (multitudes) for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:27-29
    


12. On the Easter day, people use the blood of the goat they killed to make sauce, which they drink and eat. But, God said His people must not eat or drink the blood of an animal.
    
    “Only be sure that you do not eat the blood, for the blood is the life; you may not eat the life with the meat. 24 You shall not eat it; you shall pour it on the earth like water. 25 You shall not eat it, that it may go well with you and your children after you, when you do what is right in the sight of the Lord.” Deuteronomy 12:23-25
    


13. The Christians do not hold or celebrate the feast of Unleavened bread, which God said should immediately follow the Passover feast. Instead, they observe Easter Monday, only one day, whereas God said seven days.
    
    “And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; seven days you must eat unleavened bread. 7 On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no customary work on it. 8 But you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord for seven days. The seventh day shall be a holy convocation; you shall do no customary work on it.'" Leviticus 23:6-8
    


14. The Christians make January the first month of the year. But, God said that the Passover month should be the first month for His people.
    
    “Now the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, 2 "This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you.” Exodus 12:1-3 the first month in God’s own calendar, as specified in the bible is the month of Abib (March/April)
    


15. During the Easter, people do not rejoice and celebrate the way God directed. God said,
    
    “And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palm trees, the boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook; and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days. 41 You shall keep it as a feast to the Lord for seven days in the year. It shall be a statute forever in your generations.” Leviticus 23:40-41
    
    That was why the Israelites welcomed Jesus with palm fronds and branches of trees. “And a very great multitude spread their clothes on the road; others cut down branches from the trees and spread them on the road.” Matthew 21:8-9 Even so in heaven,
    
    “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!" Revelation 7:9-10.
    


16. Etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.
    

1. By now, you should have known why I often say that most of the churches that claim to be the best are indeed among the worst.
   


2. By now, you know why I say that Catholic Church is a set of lies and fabrications, forged by the Roman Empire.
   


3. By now, you should have understood why I do say that the worst thing that can happen to any person is to have an ignorant reverend as a teacher.
   


4. By now, you know why I assert that a person who does not know the way, believes whatever he is told. But, the one who knows the Truth is able to differentiate what is true from what is false.
   


5. By now, you know why I do say all those who claim to be Christians, born gains or believers, behave like the baby in the arms, who eats whatever that is fed into its mouth, without knowing whether the food is good or bad.
   


6. By now, you know why I do say that most of the people who claim to be Christians, born agains or believers, are not.
   


7. By now, you know why I often say that the religious leaders are spiritually blind and ignorant, teaching and practising man-made doctrines, which were made at meetings, councils, synods and conferences, and which doctrines are the figments of imagination, the fabrications of falsehood and the deceptions of the enemy. The false imaginations of ignorant religious leaders.
   


8. By now, you know why I say that the religious leaders are deceiving themselves and misleading the ignorant masses.
   


9. By now, you know why I do say that people are waiting for rapture, without preparing for rapture.
   


10. By now, you know why I do say that the romans fabricated the Catholic Church, even so without reading the bible. What a deception! Hypocrisy, indeed!
    


11. By now, you know why Angels and Saints do say that the Catholic Church is doing the works of the antichrist, by changing everything that God has said. Even Pope Francis is now leading a motion for a change to be made in Our Lord’s prayer.
    


12. By now, you why I do say that humanity are sleeping giants that have refused to open their eyes.
    


13. By now, you know why I am greatly provoked by those who add bad comments, mockeries, curses and abuses to my writings and postings.
    


14. Etc. And, be warned!
