pagan holidays- a little leaven...

To that person which dared to compare Jewish feasts to pagan holidays,

    Your glorying is not good.Know ye not that a little leanen leaveneth the
whole lump (1 cor 5:6). Even more so you make yourself suspect. God is not
willing to compromise on such issues as idolatry and paganism. Either you are
with him or you are not. To use the Jewish Feasts as an excuse to "have a
little festivity" was totally erroneous.

    And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
    Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, concerning the feasts
of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are MY
FEASTS.(LEV 23:1,2) NOTE: the LORD appointed these holidays and so it was
lawful to celebrate them, but concernIng Idolatry: in DEUT 13

30  Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them,
after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after
their Gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do
likewise.
31  Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy GOD: for evry abomination to the
LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and
their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.
32  WHAT THING SOEVER I COMMAND YOU, OBSERVE TO DO IT: THOU SHALT NOT ADD
THERETO, NOR DIMINISH FROM IT.


are to be sanctified, and full of holiness, and HE will have a PERFECT people.

We know that Resurrection Sunday belongs to the LORD, but some Christians would
dare to mix paganistic practices with it anyway. There is probably more Easter
egg hunting done that day than baptisms.


But we know whom we serve.or do we ?
