What Fellowship Can Light Have with Darkness ?

What Fellowship Can Light Have with Darkness ?

They have taken all the darkness that came from Pagan Rome and garnished it with Jesus and tried to call it home But Jesus would not have it For he is part of Light He warned us not to touch it for it never would be right

For the other gods offend him and hurt his Father too The Glorious Jehovah this awful thing you do The Easter Fertile goddess with ovary filled eggs the reproductive rabbit who stands on pagan legs The Christmas of deception the pagan god called "Thor" the god of Saturnalia offend him even more The Halloween of Demons all crash with witch and brew the cauldron filled with curses true Christians never knew The equinox of witchcraft and the solstice devil dance match these very holidays it happened not by chance We call ourselves the children Of Jesus' perfect Light than how can we offend him by turning to the night ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"....what fellowship can light have with darkness?...." (2Corinthians 6:14)(NIV)-BibleGateway "So leave the corruption and compromise; leave it for good," says God. Don't link up with those who will pollute you...." (2Corinthians 6:17)(MSG)-BibleGateway ~ ~ ~ ~

The Dark origins of the Holidays

The very days that Christendom spends so much time celebrating, were pagan religious holidays, long before Christ came to the earth the first time. The Vernal Equinox of the goddess "Easter", the Autumnal Equinox of "Halloween" and the winter "solstice" of the Saturnalia, were not only pagan holy days, but they were and still are the most sacred days to those practicing Black Magic and Witchcraft. Don't take my word for it, get an older set of Encyclopedias (the newer ones have removed the true origins - so not to offend anyone).

Can't Fool Jesus

Christendom gives lame excuses as to how they are really honoring Jesus during these pagan celebrations. They may fool themselves and even others. But can they really fool Christ? Do they think that Jesus is stupid ? He has been watching mankind for thousands of years, and knows the origins of all these Holidays. He won't be flattered and neither will you, when he returns to settle accounts with everyone on the earth. Yes, even during the time that Christ walked the earth, the pagan Saturnalia on December 25th was in full swing. The early Christians refused to have anything to do with it. "On your day of gladness, we [Christians] neither cover our doorposts with wreaths, nor intrude upon the day with lamps. At the call of public festivity, you consider it a proper thing to decorate your house like some new brothel. We are accused of a lower sacrilege because we do NOT celebrate along with you the holidays ..." - (Tertullian, (A.D. 155-220), 2001, p. 1176).

(quoted by David Bercot, A Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs, 1998, p. 342). "The "winter solstice (December) was the time at which all the sun-gods from Osiris to Jupiter and Mithra had celebrated their (birthdays) - the celebration being adorned with the pine tree of Adonis, the holly of Saturn, and the mistletoe (of the pagan Druids).....tapers(candles) represented the kindling of the newborn sun-god's fire..." --Man and His Gods, p.201. "Christmas has nothing to do with the Bible... It's a pagan holiday that the Romans invented that we just do." - popular American comedian and actor, Drew Carey. At a White House correspondents' dinner on May 5, 2002.

Easter Excuses
This holiday is even more blatantly sacreligious than the others. Christendom has not even bothered to change the name of the pagan fertility goddess that this Holiday is named after. They have labeled a Holiday for Jesus by the pagan goddess's Name - "Easter". What an insult to Christ.
"Easter.....Teutonic dawn goddess of fertility " - Larry Boemler "Asherah and Easter," Biblical Archaeology Review, Vol. 18, Number 3

Easter - "She was the goddess of love, fertility, and maternity for the Phonicians, Canaanites, Aramaeans, South Arabs, and even the Egyptians. Her name was Ishtar in Babylonia and Assyria..." -World Book, Vol. 1, 782.
"The hare (rabbit), the symbol of fertility in ancient Egypt, a symbol that was kept later in Europe. Its place has been taken by the Easter rabbit" -(Encyclopedia Britannica, 1991 ed., Vol. 4, p. 333). "There is no indication of the observance of the Easter festival in the New Testament, or in the writings of the apostolic Fathers. The sanctity of special times was an idea absent from the minds

of the first Christians.." -Encyclopaedia Britannica, 13th Edition, 1926, Vol. 8, p.828 "It was common during the early days of Christianity to try to attract new converts by blending Christian observances with existing pagan festivals. Just as the observation of Christmas on December 25, to coincide with the pagan celebration of the winter solstice......the association of the rabbit with Easter is the vestige of an ancient spring fertility rite." -Holiday Symbols, 2nd Edition, by S. E. Thompson, Omnigraphics, Detroit, MI, 2000, p.131,132 "The fact that vernal festivals were general among pagan peoples had much to do with the form assumed by the Eastern festival in the Christian churches. The English term Easter is of pagan origin" -(Albert Henry Newman, D.D., LL.D., A Manual of Church History, p. 299).

The Bible Gives a Warning Against "Worldly" Holidays

"Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods. But now that you know God-or rather are known by God-how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again? You are observing special days and months and seasons and years! I fear for you, that somehow I have wasted my efforts on you. " (Galatians 4:8-11)(NIV)-BibleGateway "You even 'celebrate' certain days, months, seasons, and years. I am afraid I have wasted my time working with you. " (Galatians 4:10,11)(CEV)-BibleGateway "You have holy days, holy months, holy seasons, and holy years. I fear that all my work for you

has been for nothing. " (Galatians 4:10,11)(WE)-BibleGateway

Jehovah's Viewpoint
In the end, it's God's viewpoint that really counts - NOT ours. "The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are open unto their cry. The face of Jehovah is against them that do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth." (Psalm 34:15,16)(ASV)-BibleGateway "For the ways of man are before the eyes of Jehovah..." (Proverbs 5:21)(ASV)-BibleGateway "For the eyes of Jehovah run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." (2Chronicles 16:9)(ASV)-BibleGateway "The LORD sees everything, and he watches us closely." (Proverbs 5:21)(CEV)-BibleGateway "For God carefully watches the way that people live; he sees everything they do. No darkness is thick enough to hide the wicked from his eyes. For it is not up to mortals to decide when to come before God in judgment. He will openly strike them down for their wickedness. For they turned aside from following him. They have no respect for any of his ways." (Job 34:21-23)(NLT)-BibleGateway "From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;

from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth-" (Psalm 33:13,14)(NIV)-BibleGateway "The LORD looks at the world from his throne in heaven, and he watches us all. The LORD gave us each a mind, and nothing we do can be hidden from him." (Psalm 33:13-15)(CEV)-BibleGateway "Don't say, "I didn't know it!" God can read your mind. He watches each of us and knows our thoughts. And God will pay us back for what we do." (Proverbs 24:12)(CEV)-BibleGateway

Judgement Has Been Given to Jesus

Jehovah has given all judging to his son. When Christ returns to eliminate those who do not obey him, how will he feel about those who make excuses in order to celebrate pagan holidays that honor other gods and have evil sources ? How will Jesus feel about those who prefer Darkness over Light ? "On judgment day many will tell me, `Lord, Lord, we prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.' But I will reply, `I never knew you. Go away; the things you did were unauthorized." (Matthew 7:22,23)(NLT)-BibleGateway "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? " (Luke 6:46)(NIV)-BibleGateway

In The End it's only God's Viewpoint That Counts

"Jehovah will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he will mightily roar...he will give a shout... against all the inhabitants of the earth. A noise shall come even to the end of the earth; for Jehovah hath a controversy with the nations; he will enter into judgment with all flesh: as for the wicked, he will give them to the sword, saith Jehovah. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great tempest shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth. And the slain of Jehovah shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the face of the ground." (Jeremiah 25:30-33)(ASV)-BibleGateway "...This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power on the day he comes to be glorified." (2Thessalonians 1:7-10)(NIV)-BibleGateway "In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead." (Acts 17:30,31)(NIV)-BibleGateway
