2 HOW IS PAGAN EASTER CONNECTED TO PAGAN CHRISTMAS?

3 Did you know that Christmas is rooted with a pagan past?

4 Throughout history, man-made religions were formed to control the masses.

5 Many of the sources of religious festivals and observations have roots in ancient Egypt,

6 Syria, Persia, Greece, and areas surrounding modern day Yisra el.

7 Much of the religious zeal from these ancient lands starts with the sun god.

8 Phoenicians and Babylonians worshiped a sun god named Ba al, which means Lord.

9 The Babylonian s observed the Ba al Beriyth, known as the Lord s Covenant.

10 When the Babylonians took the Yahuwdy into captivity, the Yahuwdy ignored Yahowah s Towrah instructions,

11 and they integrated the Babylonian religious traditions, which were propagated and turned Yah s Towrah instructions into a religion.

12 This was in turn integrated through the 1st through 3rd century when Christianity emerged from Imperial Roman and its Catholic Church.

13 These are but a few examples of the putrid pagan pontifications found in the Christian swamp of religious poison:

14 Imperial Rome s and Janus New Year s Day (also known as the Octave of Christmas and Solemnity of Mary,

15 Mother of God), the Epiphany, St. Valentine s Day, St Patrick s Day, Lent, Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday,

16 Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary,

17 the Nativity of St. John, Halloween (All Saints Day), the Advent, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God,

18 and Christmas (the Nativity of our Lord), Sunday Worship (as the Lord s Day), the Eucharist, Communion,

19 the Sacrifice of the Mass, acknowledging Saints, Prayers to and for the Dead, the Rosary, Priestly Confession, Purgatory,

20 Statues and Prayers to the Madonna and Child, the Cross, Sign of the Cross, Crucifixes, Religious Relics and Icons, Halos,

21 Steeples, Obelisks, Holy Water, Infant Baptism, Wax Candles, Justification by Works, Indulgences, a Monetary Tithe, a Paid Clergy,

22 a Clerical Hierarchy, a Sovereign Pontiff or Pope, Cardinals, Celibate Priests as Fathers, Monks, Nuns, and calling God Lord.

23 Notice, not one of Yahowah s seven Invitations to be Called Out and Meet with God made the Christian list.

24 And then there is the Babylonian Christmas Tree and its lights and decorations, the Babylonian Yule Log, Wreaths, and Santa,

25 the Babylonian Easter Bunny and Dyed Eggs, the Babylonian Easter Ham and Hot Cross Buns.

26 Why do Christians tolerate this religious muck?

27 The Catholic Church makes an analogy in the Catholic Encyclopedia that Passover is for the Jews like Christmas is to Christians.

28 The RCC pushes aside Yah s instructions and makes Him a liar by negating the fact that Passover is for all generations, all places, and all time.

29 Yahowah s Testimony Is Perfect

30 Since Pesach / Passover is not Easter, we know that the RCC adopted the Babylonian holiday with their celebration of the mass.

31 On Easter Sunday, it is celebrated nearest the day the sun crosses the equator at the vernal equinox.

32 Each year when that happens the sun is in the constellation of Taurus - the bull. Let s hear what Yah has to say through naby Yasha yahuw :

33 So then they shall not regard or accept altars to gods that are the work of their hands nor what their fingers have made. They will not look to or delight in Asherah and sun images and idols (chamman ). Yasha'yahuw / Isaiah 17:8

34 Easter Sunday is the RCC s primary religious festival during the Vernal Equinox, also from the Babylonians

35 when Mother Earth was impregnated by the sun.

36 In Babylon, nine months later, the son of the sun was born on the Winter solstice.

37 And now you know the connection to the RCC s celebration of Christmas.

38 Rather than rejecting Easter and Christmas, the RCC and Christianity

39 discarded the Mow ed Miqra ey, the feast of Pesach / Passover and Sukah / Shelters.

40 Rather than dispensing with the false name of their god Lord Jesus Christ,

41 they dispensed with Yahowah s name. In fact, the RCC made it forbidden in 2008

42 by banning the inclusion of Yahowah s name in any church, cathedral, or ceremony.

43 If these corrupt institutions would dispense of their Babylonian customs and corruptions,

44 and these institutions observed the Towrah, called on Yahowah, and walked toward Yah's Mow ed Miqra ey, all would be forgiven.

45 Today, this question resonates throughout Christendom. Has the replacement of Yahowah with Lord,

46 Passover with the Last Supper s Communion and Eucharist, and the FirstFruits commemoration with Easter, left Christians without a pardon?

47 Have the religious trappings of crosses, Christmas trees, and Easter Bunnies,

48 left Christians sufficiently unclean that their salvation is in jeopardy?

49 Are the various gods of the many religions man has created able to save those who rely upon them?

50 While it isn t this video producer s job (nor the author of Yada Yah) to provide a definitive answer

51 to the question of how much religious corruption a person can endure before it becomes fatal,

52 this I can affirm with certainty: those who walk away from religion, who diligently observe the Towrah

53 and come to know Yahowah sufficiently to trust and rely upon Him,

54 who walk to God and become perfect by answering the seven annual Invitations to be Called Out

55 and to Meet with Him, who come to understand and properly respond to the Covenant s terms and conditions,

56 and who if they are men are circumcised, all such individuals will be saved.

57 They will be adopted by our Heavenly Father, and invited to campout with Him in His home forever.

58 Therefore, rather than wondering how God will treat those who have been misled,

59 we should instead accurately communicate the plan God assured us will lead to His Home.

60 Anything else is a waste of time.

61 SUMMARY Easter and Christmas are from Pagan origin. Yahowah hates man-made religion because it dilutes His message and causes people to wander away from His Beryth family Covenant. Reject religion and stop observing pagan festivals like Easter and Christmas. Walk to Yahowah. Read more at:
