paganism in your beliefs

Christmas and gift giving are PAGAN HOLIDAYS known as "Winter Solstice" and "The rebirth of the SUN god Ra" the Greeks and Romans and pagans had different names for it but they all PREDATE Christianity by thousands of years!
The wreaths (yes the circle of leaves or thistles you put up) were used to honor their gods. Wreaths are mentioned this way in Acts when the pagans thought paul and barnabbas were zeus and hermes in human form so they put wreaths on them.

The "christmas tree" represents the pagan god Nimrods penis, and the ornoments are his balls and the female's eggs.

Pagans caroled on December 25th, yulelogs are pagan, gift giving is pagan.

Easter, a pagan goddess who *gasp* was to be worshipped on the same day your holiday is celebrated on, all celebrated BEFORE Christianity. What would happen is the pagans would force "unblemished" (uh oh)/virgin women to concieve and they'd kill the baby and dip EGGS in their blood, they also worshipped rabbits and bunnies because of their high fertility GASP. Also the Bible says messiah will die for THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS. According to Christians he was dead a day and a half (Friday to sunday morning) or by Jewish days THREE DAYS TWO NIGHTS.

I could go on but I won't.

Catholics adopted ALL THESE HOLIDAYS FROM PAGANS.
SHOW me where it says "the Messiah was born on December 25" not in there! And even if he was (which he wasn't) the holidays are still pagan!

The Messiah and raised, but it wasnt on easter, he was raised on the Sabbath (Saturday

Jeremiah 10:2-5 NET

The Lord says, ?Do not start following pagan religious practices. Do not be in awe of signs that occur in the sky even though the nations hold them in awe. For the religion of these people is worthless. They cut down a tree in the forest, and a craftsman makes it into an idol with his tools. He decorates it with overlays of silver and gold. He uses hammer and nails to fasten it together so that it will not fall over. Such idols are like scarecrows in a cucumber field. They cannot talk. They must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them because they cannot hurt you. And they do not have any power to help you.?

First of all, we Christians **KNOW** that the Lord Jesus wasn't Born on December 25'Th. We are well aware that the particular week which celebrate Our Lord's Birth was used by ancient pagan cultures for different celebrations, including the births of their gods. For the record, Eastern-rite Christians actually celebrate Christmas in January. We do not know the date of Our Lord's Birth, nor which particular holiday the Jewish people happened to be observing during the time of His Birth. However, His Birth IS written about in the Gospels, hence we celebrate it, & December 25'Th is as good a day as any!!!

In regards to Easter: It appears to only be in Anglo-speaking cultures that the day which we celebrate the Lord's Resurrection, is named "Easter." In other languages, it looks more like the name of the holiday which we celebrate the Resurrection is named after Passover.

And yes, Christ Was Raised during the early hours of the First Day of the Week. Not on the Sabbath. That is why the early Christians called the First Day of the week, 'The Lord's Day."

Totus Tuus O Maria!!! Totus Tuus O Jesu!!!!

WRONG. Jesus isn't God #1.

GOD'S day is SATURDAY aka THE SABBATH AK the LAST DAY of the week!

The apostles kept THE SATURDAY SABBATH. The apostles NEVER kept Sunday.

Seriously, read your bible. Ignore the "church fathers" who were nothing but heretics and didn't know the apostles.

1)I have read my Holy Bible.

2)The Church Fathers DID know the Apostles.

Totus Tuus O Maria!!! Totus Tuus O Jesu!!!!

WRONG the church fathers DIDN'T know the apostles.

Polykarp and Ignateus claimed to be disciples but guess what they had absolutely no proof that they actually knew "John".

None whatsoever. It is more probable to say that they knew a DIFFERENT John, not one of the 12 for the simple reason that in their writings they dont tell us anything that isn't already in the gospels. They don't give us new details about jezus or things he personally said to John.

"Then Jezus said to our mentor John, "John, you have Loved me and I Love you as I Love the other brothers too. Tomorrow come with me and I will show you the kindom of God.""

Nothing like that.

By the way the Gospels WEREN'T WRITTEN BY EYEWITNESSES or THE TWELVE.

The authors are unknown 100%. They are all written in the third person. If the apostles Matthew and John actually wrote their gospels it would be in the FIRST PERSON, "Jesus said to me/us"

Again. The Messiah said THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS, THERE'S only 3 Jewish days and 2 Jewish nights between friday and Sunday.

In America there's only a day and a half. YOU'RE MISSING THE THIRD NIGHT therefore you are REFUTED

Part 3

Matthew and Luke give falsified accounts of his birth. He wasn't born of a virgin. Isaiah wasn't predicting jezus in Isaiah 7 or 9. He was referring to a YOUNG WOMAN among the kings kingdom in his lifetime! Israel/Ephraim and Syria were about to take over Jerusalem
So Isaiah asked God for a sign about what would happen TO THEM.

Isaiah 7:15-21 NET

He will eat sour milk and honey, which will help him know how to reject evil and choose what is right. Here is why this will be so: Before the child knows how to reject evil and choose what is right, the land whose two kings you fear will be desolate. The Lord will bring on you, your people, and your father?s family a time unlike any since Ephraim departed from Judah ? the king of Assyria!? At that time the Lord will whistle for flies from the distant streams of Egypt and for bees from the land of Assyria. All of them will come and make their home in the ravines between the cliffs, and in the crevices of the cliffs, in all the thorn bushes, and in all the watering holes. At that time the sovereign master will use a razor hired from the banks of the Euphrates River, the king of Assyria, to shave the head and the pubic hair; it will also shave off the beard. At that time a man will keep alive a young cow from the herd and a couple of goats.

Does any of this happen to Jezus? Hell no! Time to stop making excuses and misusing the Bible
