"Easter is a pagan celebration, not for believers." In Latin, the official language of the Church, is is called "Pascha" which is derived from Hebrew "Pesach", i.e., "Passover." Thus, Italians call it "Pasqua", the French call it "Paques", the Spanish "Pascua de Resurrección" Easter is a term used primarily in English-speaking countries. From Wikipedia: "The modern English term Easter,... developed from an Old English word that usually appears in the form Ēastrun, -on, or -an; but also as Ēastru, -o; and Ēastre or Ēostre. The most widely accepted theory of the origin of the term is that it is derived from the name of a goddess mentioned by the 7th to 8th-century English monk Bede (a.k.a. Saint Bede the Venerable), who wrote that Ēosturmōnaþ (Old English 'Month of Ēostre', translated in Bede's time as "Paschal month") was an English month..." Thus, Catholics, like all believers, celebrate the Resurrection of Our Lord on Pascha, or Easter Sunday in English. Therefore, you argument is semantic rather than substantive.

Believers do no such thing!

Yeshua arose at sunset at the close of the Sabbath, what would be called Saturday evening by the current calendar.

Sunday (sungod’s day) means nothing but the first work day of the week to those that live by Yehova’s word.

We do not celebrate by the day of the week, but by the Biblical calendar, which is agricultural in nature, and what we celebrate is the Passover, not the pagan fertility rite easter.

The beginning of the Biblical year, Aviv, is determined by the ripeness of the Barley on the western slopes of the Mount of Olives. The barley must be ripe enough at the new moon that begins the year to grind flour to make the loaves that are required to celebrate Passover.

Easter will keep you in good standing with the Father of Lies.

BTW, The official language of Yeshua’s Assembly (Kehillah) is Hebrew, the language of our creator.

He has no “church.”
