Easter is linked to the Jewish Passover, not pagan myths
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
That’s right. It’s the celebration 🎊 of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
If you go by the Hebrew calendar, Jesus was crucified on a Wednesday.
Well his death was Passover related because jesus blood saved as well...just differently.
We should not have to Defend Easter from a Catholic President.
Not watching a vid of someone entertaining this ridiculous debate. Pagan myths? WTH?
We’re Eastern Orthodox, so Easter for us is always AFTER the Jewish passover. It’s not the same every year.
This year passover is April 22
Supplant Ishtar’s customary fertility rites? (eggs, rabbits, bouquets, new Easter bonnets?)
Pagan Shmagan. Everyone knows after three days, he emerged from the tomb, saw his shadow, ran back in and there were six more weeks of winter.
Jesus rose yesterday. He was crucified on a Wednesday before passover. John 19.
Hate to bust your bubble. Read, actually read your bible.
Hebrew calendar.
Isn’t transgender awareness day a pagan myth?
“”””Isn’t transgender awareness day a pagan myth?””””
Excellent first response to trigger the other person’s thinking before you explain the actual history.
I don’t see that it actually matters what day, or other exactness people try to determine about Jesus. There is more than enough important things we do know, and it’s up to each person to choose to believe or not. Many just want to find have “unsettled details” so they have an excuse not to surrender and be changed.
Transgender awareness day, as I’m sure most people recognize, is just some made-up crap. Easter Day is historically & religiously significant. It may come on different days according to some, but it definitely has real significance as Jesus Christ’s Resurrection. The other(trans awareness day)will just fade into nothingness as so many “special days” do. It will become like(or less) “National Talk Like A Pirate Day”. It’s sometime in the fall I think, but how many people even know or care about it?
Here, on the very first Trans Day, we should be acutely aware of when and how religions and regimes tend to paste over the holidays of the old with their new.
And with that:

Joseph: “It’s just for the weekend”.
Not gonna get in a Catholic/Protestant fight, yall have to recognize the Hebrew calendar. If you don’t, well, God’s Blessings on yall. And I’m not able to help. I love you .
OMG!
Will all you people just STOP!
It was Wednesday, Pagan, Pagan, Pagan.
As No Name Given said “ It’s the celebration 🎊 of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.”
That’s IT! All that other stuff doesn’t matter.
JESUS DIED FOR YOUR SINS! HE PAID THE PRICE FOR US
He rose from the dead to show us that we too could have everlasting life through Him.
He SUFFERED excruciating pain and humiliation FOR YOU!
And all you can talk about are dates, Pagans, bunnies, and eggs!
The TWO most important events in human history, His death and resurrection.
Matthew 7:13-14 NIV
The very words of Jesus.
“13“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
What you should really be concerned with is are you among the “few” or the “many”.
