Easter Celebrations? What Does The Bible Say?

All The Bible Has To Say About Easter: Nothing Wala Nada Zilch Zip

What About Acts 12:4 KJV ? Act 12:4 And when he had taken him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him; intending after the Passover to bring him forth to the people. ASV Act 12:4 And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him over to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people. ESV

What About Acts 12:4 KJV ? NKJV, NASB, YLT, BBE, ISV, RSV, MKJV, LITV, NEB, Living Bible, LBLA, RV60, TAB, Illocano, Vulgate “PASCHA, (3957) mistranslated 'Easter' in Ac.12:4, KJV, denotes the Passover (RV). The phrase 'after the Passover' signifies after the whole festival was at an end. The term Easter is not of Christian origin. It is another form of Astarte, one of the titles of the Chaldean goddess, the queen of heaven. The festival of Pasch held by Christians in the post- apostolic times was a continuation of the Jewish feast, but was not instituted by Christ, nor was it connected with Lent. From this Pasch the pagan festival of Easter was quite distinct and was introduced into the apostate Western religion, as part of the attempt to adapt Pagan festivals to Christianity.” Vines Dictionary

Religious Holy Days – Gal.4:8-11 Gal.4:8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. Gal.4:9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more? Gal.4:10 You observe days and months and seasons and years! Gal.4:11 I am afraid I may have labored over you in vain.

Doubt The Resurrection? Absolutely Not Follow The Lord’s Memorial of His Death, Burial, & Resurrection Matt.26:26-29 Acts 2:42 Acts 20:7 1 Cor.11:23ff

The Question of Social Activities? Rom.14:1-6 Things Can Lose Their Religious Meaning: Days of the Week Lady Bug Pretzels

The Plan of Salvation Hear the Gospel of Christ, Rom.10:17 Believe in Jesus Christ, Jn.3:16 Repent and Turn to God, Luke 13:3 Confess Jesus Before Men, Rom.10:9-10 Baptized For Forgiveness, Acts 2:38 --------------------------------- Grow and Seek The Lord, Col.3:1-4 2nd Law of Pardon If We Err: Repent and Pray God Acts 8:22
