What is Easter, Really?

How many observe Christ's birthday! How few, His precepts!  ~Benjamin Franklin

We can never perpetrate evil even for the right reasons thereby making it righteous

9 That which has been, it is that which shall be. And that which has been done, it is that which will be done. And there is no new thing under the sun.†  Ecclesiastes 1:9HRB

THERE ARE TWO COMPLETELY different churches pictured in the New Testament.  One, the true Church that Jesus built, is described as the bride of Christ, forsaking involvements with this world and its customs in order to be pure when He comes for her. But, throughout the New Testament, it was prophesied that false teachers would creep in and gain control of the church organization. True Christians would have to flee from many of their original congregations to continue to obey God. They would, therefore, be a little flock, often scattered, never having political power in this world.[i]

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.  It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.  The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.  C. S. Lewis English essayist & juvenile novelist (1898 - 1963)   

PEOPLE TODAY CAN think that they are worshipping the true Savior when they are really worshipping a false savior—another Jesus!  The entirety of traditional Christianity is actually worshipping Baal, the mediator and sun god, who was named after his wife Ishtar (who was actually his mother Semiramis)—who we will later see is the one the Bible calls the Queen of Heaven.[ii]

The festival of easter not unlike its compatriot christ-mas are indisputably purposed for the recruitment of children as their single solitary target.  These are nothing more than counterfeit holidays meant to ace ac replacement players for the feasts of Elohim.  It is the McDonald’s even Marxist marketing if we secure the children we will have the family.  Next, the whole thing is predicated on lies engendering deception on multiple levels all of which are couched within even sanctioned under the umbrella of ‘Christianity’. 

It has been said that The only thing man has learned from history is that no one learns from history.

4 to those whose eyes have been blinded by the god of this world, because they did not believe, lest the light of the glorious good news of the Messiah, who is the image of YAHWEH, should shine on them.  2Corinthians 4:4KJV

9 And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent being called the devil, and, Satan; he deceiving the whole inhabitable world was cast out onto the earth, and his cherubs were cast out with him. °  Revelation 12:9HRB

3 But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your thoughts should be corrupted from the purity which is in Messiah.  4 For if, indeed one comes to you proclaiming another Yahshua, whom we have not proclaimed, or if you receive another spirit which you have not received, or another good news which you never accepted, you might have listened to him.  2Corinthians 11:3-4HRB

THERE IS AN EERILY similar almost profoundly contiguous resemblance oozing irony in the possibility moreover the reality that the modern day clergy is not unlike the scribes and Pharisees of old who knew neither YHSWH nor recognized Him to such a degree that they were incapable of receiving His TRUTH.  How do we disregard the copious evidence in scripture warning us of this imminent outcome?  How do we harmonize the Biblical perspective of the hireling with the modern day clergy?  The spiritual amputation of the TRUTH of the Pharisees was so great it would continue to cause them to preclude their own constituents from gaining entry into the Kingdom of Heaven. 

10 and you must discern what is acceptable before our Master.  11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather condemn them.  Ephesians 5:10-11HRB

16 And what harmony has the sanctuary of Elohim with idols? For you are the sanctuary of the living Elohim, even as it is said, I will dwell in them and walk among them, and I will be their Elohim, and they shall be My people. °  17 Because of this, Come out from among them and be separated, saysYAHWEH, and do not touch the unclean thing, and I will receive you. °  2Corinthians 6:16-17KJV

15 And Yahshua said to them, You are those justifying yourselves before men, but YAHWEH knows your hearts; for the thing highly prized among men is abominable before Elohim.  Luke 16:15HRB

I did my stint as many did theirs in public schools, like most of you, and as such I earned the right to say whatever I might whenever I like.  The same is true of these celebrations, I have earned the right to speak, even frame them however I see fit having sported the jersey for the opposing team for more than four decades.  I grew up in the western evangelical.  After stumbling into the light in my early to mid-forties only to discover to my amazement that the two greatest celebrations in the western evangelical possibly even globally [christ-mass & easter] embraced and endorsed by the modern church  those days in which attendance surpasses all others only to reveal the consensus of the spiritual embrace are in fact pagan at their origin, I would make it my enterprise to heighten my own awareness toward a new found provocation of aspiring to scrutinize all religious holidays, celebrations, and teachings which have over the centuries gained acclaim having made their way into illegitimate prominence to the self-same end that of advancement of apostasy within the ranks of the ‘church’.  Refer to my book, "The Question of Christmas".

These two confederates find their purpose even by design in undermining both the significance as well as validity of the two most consequential pillars on which the Christian Church is founded with easter being the more significant its very apex.  In our modern age things are more covert.  Take welfare for instance almost 50% of the US population are receiving government handouts this does not include government employees which are arguably vocations of social welfare, notwithstanding the military industrial complex.  The clandestine nature of these handouts makes them invisible as they hand the cashier their debit cards allowing them to look just like those of us who are not on the dole.  In the 30’s the hunger, unemployment, and poverty were unmistakably visible as one could not miss the bread lines the soup lines of the countless citizenry.  The same I’m afraid is true of baal worship also known as: Saturn, Vulcan, Kronos, Tammuz, Molech all of which were once represented by enormous constructs of graven images which followers would worship publically even sacrificing children in hopes of gaining the favor of the sun god.  Today, however, there are only a few such constructs such as the obelisk in proximity to a dome where the obelisk is the shaft of baal, the sun god, the light of which one day a year would make its presence on the altar, a symbol of the female body, of the temple thereby impregnating it, symbolized by the dome, representing fertility in the land and fruitfulness in the coming year.  This can be observed in the Vatican city where St. Peter’s Basilica is built atop of what once was the ancient ruins of the Vatican Circus.  It is said that Caligula brought the Egyptian obelisk to Rome.  This is the very place where they held the chariot races to the sun god.  Today at the vernal equinox the great doors of the Basilica can be opened at sunrise allowing the rays of the sun to illuminate the high altar.  Our solar calendar finds its origins in ancient Babylonian sun worship.

* Dio: LXIX, 12:1.The Years A.D. 68 to 70 Were Eventful. Jesus Predicted that Persecutions and Calamities in Nature and Governments would be Associated with the Trouble in Judea.

Five different emperors of Rome would wear the Imperial crown during the time of the Jewish war, which gives some indication of the political chaos of the period of less than three years: they would be Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius and Vespasian. What an eventful period the short time between A.D. 68 to 70 was! Vespasian who had won his fame in Britain[iv], actually stationed at Badbury Rings, was ordered to Palestine[v] to put down the momentary and seemingly successful (to the Jews) claim of independence by the Palestinian false prophets. The war blazed up in A.D. 66 and the Romans were not able to subdue any of the Jews until Vespasian arrived in 68.[vi] Thus, there were more than three years of independence in which new coins were minted up to year three of the new order.[vii] But the rebellion of the Jews was to fail and the war by the Romans make real progress by A.D. 68, (Galilee fell, Josephus was captured and defected to the Romans). At the same time the apostles Peter[viii] and Paul[ix] were put to death; the only traditions we have say one was beheaded and the other crucified upside down during Nero's last days, which included earthquakes and the burning of Rome and the first major general persecution of the church in which many Christians died in many cities.[x] Shortly, Nero's excesses were consummated—he killed at whim all whom he would, was profligate in every way, sodomized his half-brother and killed him, debauched his sister, actually legally married two men and cohabited openly with them, had his games held at night lighted by humans daubed with pitch and set alight; he murdered his own mother, Agrippina, and then voyeuristically examined her corpse, and was finally rejected and belatedly committed suicide.[xi] Galba assumed the Imperial crown, while Vespasian closed the gap on Jerusalem to secure the siege, and according to Dio, held back on committing his troups until he saw how all would go in Rome.[xii] It was at this time, when Vespasian withdrew from the city, that the Christians left the city bound for Pella. This also gave time for the factions to kill each other inside the city as they fought for supremacy. Some months later Galba was attacked by Vitellius whose armies proclaimed him emperor in Germany.[xiii] During this civil war, Otho, friend of Nero, arose and assassinated Galba nine months after
