COMMOM APOSTASIES OF "CHRISTIANITY" (Part 1) NO PAGAN HOLIDAYS I will present the first part of this page in question-and-answer format: SHOULD WE CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS, EASTER AND OTHER CHRISTIAN HOLIDAYS? While I realize there are billions of Christians in the world who celebrate these days, (and many of them are saved), NO ONE SHOULD EVEN ENTERTAIN THESE DAYS! In fact, I do not even consider these days truly Christian, because anything not Biblically Jewish ,(or at least anything that cannot be justified as Jewish from The Bible), cannot be truly Christian. IF WE ARE SAVED ANYWAY, THEN WHY SHOULDN'T WE CELEBRATE THESE HOLIDAYS? Because G-d used the Jewish people as "A Light to the nations", and therefore, the nations should be a light right back to Yisra'el in love! When the world takes away from The Biblical Holydays and replaces them with man-made pagan holidays THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH JUDAISM, then are tragically conveying and perpetuating o Jewish people, "Jesus has nothing to do with Judaism"? Since Satan wants more than anything to keep this myth popular among the Jewish people, Christians who convey this to them are unwittingly doing the will of satan towards His people! Bottom-line is that each-and-every Biblical Holy Day has some connection to Yehowshu`a HaMoshiach, and when we seek to follow G-d's Holy Word, The Bible, we cannot go wrong. It is NEVER good to associate ANYTHING pagan with G-d and His Holy Word! WHEN WAS YEHOWSHU`A BORN? Based on The Bible, I cannot say for sure. However, we all would do well to celebrate it on a Biblical Jewish Holy Day. Still, I personally believe the most-likely time He was probably born on was on Shavu'ot ("Pentecost"). If one takes Luke 1:26 not only to refer to how long Elisha was already pregnant, but also referring to the sixth Hebrew month of Elul on The Hallel Calendar, then carefully studies the time of the events in Luke 1, then either Yehowshu`a was born around December, or in May or June. We can rule-out "Christmas" because it is pagan. So either He was probably born on Chunakah or Shavuot based on this. However, another point here is that Chunakah was not a Holy Day Appointed by G-d in The Torah, as was Shavuot. We can also come to the conclusion His birth was probably at one of these two times by tracing the rotation of the Priesthood, IF they started countinig when Shlomo gave his speech for the Temple, and if this rotation was changed every two weeks a year. But one of the most convincing points to me added to these points is that it appears G-d's Revelation to Yisra'el Giving them The Torah was on the third month, (the month which Shavuot falls in), see Exodus chapter 19, and The Holy Spirit Fell on The Jewish believers on Shavuot in Acts chapter 2. Also, Yehowshua is Said to be The Word Himself, (Yochanan 1:1). So while we cannot be sure when Yehowshu`a was born, we would do well to celebrate it on Jewish Holy Days, and Ultimately every day! WHY DOESN'T THE NEW TESTAMENT TELL US SUCH AN IMPORTANT EVENT WHEN HE WAS BORN? As I said elsewhere on this website, I strongly believe that the Greek translations we have of The New Testament are translations of earlier Semitic Texts. I believe those Semitic Texts contained more details, such as details on this-very issue. Elsewhere in this site, not only did I state this, but I also gave my reasons for believing this. WHAT ABOUT EASTER? What about it? It certainly is not Biblical, or part of Jewish history in the least. Easter comes from "Eshtar", a fertility "goddess". Clearly, The New Testament Tells us that Yehowshua was the Ultimate Passover Lamb, dying for us on Passover, (See Matthew 26-28). In the KJV, where it says "Easter" in
