  1. Yes, because God made and set specific days and He called them as moedim or in english appointed time. So what's the essense of worshipping Him on a Pagan Day if God, Himself, actually set a righ time for His feats. If we will read Exodus 12:24 God said that: " You are to observe it as a law, you and your descendants forever." And in Exodus 12:49 "The same teaching is to apply equally to the citizen and to the foreigner living among you!"
  2. I was once a practitioner of magic and divination.My fascination with the occult and mythology and my love for nature led me to Wicca and Hermetic Kabbalah. But after practicing magic for over 4 years...
  3. For me, mixing Hebrew God's instructions to Pagan customs is a BIG NO, NO. Why dont they just continue to follow the original Feast of the Hebrews? Constantine Romanized Christianity with Paganism and it must never meant to be. In my opinion, the Hebrew God doesnt like to be worship in pagan way . Yet people are celebrating on a wrong date! They are celebrating the Birth and Resuurection of Yeshua on a wrong date so their praise and worsip are still useless... I agree He didnt destroy the old so we are still expected to obey the Torah (Old Law). I do not want to speak against the Torah however, salvation does not come through obedience of the Torah but through the resurrection of Yeshua. But even though salvation does not come through obedience of the Torah, we are still responsible to obey it because trying to Trying to OBEY and HONOR Christ, WITHOUT the commandments (including the festivals, feasts, and appointed times) of our Creator, is impossible. Since YESHUA is the Word (TORAH ) that became FLESH! So if you reject Torah (WORD) you also rejects Yeshua/Jesus.OBEY the commandments (including the festivals, feasts, and appointed times) of our Creator, WITHOUT Christ, is impossible. Does it make sense? Alright just for a clarification, I am spaeking to those Christ followers not to the heathens.
  4. Yes! The origin of Easter did not begin with Yeshua. There were many celebration like this even before Jesus Christ/ Yeshua was supposedly born. This celebration has its roots in ancient and pagan mystery religions. In other words, Christianity had a pagan origin. And it’s not original at all except for one thing. The ancient pagan people did not think of the story of their dying and resurrecting God to be a real person, but was accepted by them as a myth or symbol. Christianity, however, insisted that Yeshua actually lived as a real and historical person, and Christian theologians took laborious and meticulous pains to prove his historical existence. And I believe in that. What we Jewish Christ Followers don't believe is that the Celebration of Easter. Easter is not found in the Bible and Easter was all started from the tale of Nimrod’s wife who was ascended into heaven and the God’s sent her back to earth in a giant egg. The egg landed in the Euphrates river, then the egg broke open and out came the bare breasted goddess of sexual desire, Easter or Ostara. Why don’t we know this? Emperor Constantine abolished all the Jewish Traditions and adopted the celebrations of Pagan like Christmas(Yule), Easter(Ostara), and Samhain (Halloween or All saints dAY) He did everything in its mighty power to prevent the truth from coming out. It systematically and mercilessly destroyed and eradicated all teachings and literature of pagan origin. Passover or Pesach is the real holiday that Christ follower must be celebrated not Easter since Christ himself followed it before He died and nailed in the execution stake. In Exodus 12:24 God said that, "You are to observe this as law, you and your descendants forever" but why dont most of us keep and observe this. Remember Easter is not the same as Pesach. Easter is all about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ (for some Christians which is a wrong belief) while Pesach is about passing over of God in Egypt!
  5. Well according to the article I read way way back, Molech was the first version of modern Santa Claus. It was Canaanite Deity and history says that sacrificed children in ancient times were ritualistically placed on the hands of the idol of Molech same goes in modern times where parents let their children sit on Santa's lap. *Creepy*
  6. Actually as far as I am concerned, Jews have three Harvest Festivals every year namely: Pesach (Harvest of Barley) Shavuot (Harvest of Wheat) Sukkot (Harvest of Fruits) But when it comes to the American's Thanksgiving day, I am aware of the theory that it's origins may go back to the biblical Feast of Tabernacles. But I doubt it because they celebrate it in a non-kosher way. I actually dislike when people proclaim that their BRAND/LABEL of faith is the ONLY ONE that represents the truth! Well, in my opinion, it didn't matter at all what religion/church/sect one follows and what one believes in. Sorry to say this, but I tend to believe that putting religious labels to yourself makes your mind imprison in a cell . Changing your religion is just like going out from one cell to another cell. You are still imprisoned! So for me, if you really want to totally get out of the cell, then do not put any brand or labeled yourself anymore. Like me, I do not say that I am a Christian or I am a Jew. I am just a loving believer of Yeshua and a Keeper of His Word (Torah). This belief has freed me from religious fanaticism and dogmatism! I
  7. Well as far as Mayan Propehcy goes, I dont believe on it either but I beleive that there is growing awareness that we all belong to this one planet. If this planetary consciousness accelerates, and the Mayan Prophecies really point towards that direction, then the message of the Mayan calendar is one of hope and a beginning of a new era, as we leave the destructive nature of the past.

  9. Halloween, Easter, Christmas and Thanksgiving are just Christian versions of Pagan Samhain, Ishtar, Yule and Mabon. Christianism, even though they bash and criticize the pagan wiccans, also has Pagan practices which really originated from the ancients. Unknown to them, they are also doing what the Wiccans, Druids and Traditional Witches do every year! They only have renewed ones. Now, if you will tell this to some conservative Christian followers they might say,... " Ahaa, oh are you sure? if then.. why dont we know this?" Well, of course, the early Roman Catholic Church did everything in its authority to prevent the truth from coming out. It systematically and mercilessly burned and destroyed all teachings and literature of pagan origin including the Gnostic gospels. Isn't this the same attitude some Christians still have today like your parents, criticizing all beliefs that are different from or opposed to their own dogmas? So nothing has changed. Except that now that some people is willing to accept everything the Church dishes out. This does not minimize the reputation of Christ, I reckon. I am not saying these to attack the Christians, I am just sharing what I believe.

  11. Well, I dont celebrate Christmas because I choose to stay away and not to practice man made rituals and holidays. I do not follow doctrines, dogmas, rules, regulations, rites, commentaries, teachings and studies formed by man . While we cannot deny that "some" of them have amazing information from the ancestors, sages, wise men, Church fathers who were doing their best to try to understand the Truth, it is not the Word of God, I believe; they are merely man's opinions. And God warned us against them!
  12. Welcome to the Forum. We're glad to see you and hope to hear more from you in the future. Blessings of Peace,

  13. Christmas was a Christian holiday originated from a pagan winter festival called Yule or Yuletide. This feast was been initially celebrated by the Early Europeans, though the rituals and practices was later absorbed by Christians. The pagan pratices and symbols include: gift-giving and merrymaking from Roman Saturnalia; Yule logs and feast foods from Germanic and Norse Feasts; and Christmas trees and Santa Claus from Ancient Babylonian Festival. The said holiday was originally celebrated from late December to early January. In 350 A.D., Pope Julius I decreed that from the time forth the December 25 would be acknowledged as the date of the the birth of the Messiah. In this video, you will discover What is the TRUE ORIGIN of Christmas? And Where did it come from? Origin of Christmas Feel free to response or leave your comment. I am looking forward to read different views about this specific holiday! ((Ooops... I had put this on wrong category I guess, it must be on Holidays and such..))
