You are a laf a minute. Your odd views brand you as a lone goofball. For example:
You think that the celebration of the Babylonian “Easter” referenced in Ezekiel 8:14, where women are “weeping for Tammuz” which is a reference to the 40 day period of “mourning” which precedes the Babylonian feast of Easter. It was bishop Victor of Rome in the 2nd Century that ignited the Quartodecimian Controversy by threatening churches in Asia who still were celebrating the resurrection in conjunction with Passover on 14 Nisan. It was still at issue in 325 and 365 CE at the Nicean and Laodicean councils where celebration of Passover in conjunction with the resurrection was made “heretical” by the “church’s” anti-Semitic decree.
Ezekiel 8:13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do. 14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD’s house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
In Jeremiah 7:17-20 you can read what God thinks of people worshiping the “queen of heaven.” In verse 20 God said that His anger and fury shall be poured out upon man, beast, trees of the field and the fruit of the ground. God goes on to say in verse 20 that “it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.” All this for worshiping Ashtoreth which is the Old Testament name for Eastre which is where the word easter comes from. What God is telling us here is that people who know that easter is a pagan festival are not going to receive His blessings if they take part in it. What about going to an easter sunrise service? In Ezekiel 8:15-18 we are told that God thinks that is an abomination. Worshipping the sun is a form of idolatry.
So if you want “scripture” cited and since your odd world “cites” the Holy Writ as above, no one of any sense would try and argue with you, you are left with the certainty that you, alone, have the secrets of the ages. Be happy in your odd little Church of One. But do not pretend to be the adult in the room as you spew such goofy nonsense.
Thank you for posting that. You do like to cross thread dont you? No problem however as folks need to see what the Catholic Church has emulated and incorporated into their practices. Same as the Babylonian pagans. You should bring this up more often so folds will be given the opportunity to do research on their own for the pagan origins of so much of the Catholic religion. God will open the eyes of those He chooses. Its simply our duty to bring to peoples attention the scripture and you are helping me do that. I thank you for that.
