‘All Saints’ or ‘all gods’?

November 1, 2022 December 3, 2022 / By Nemisistar / Holidays of Man

November 1st is designated by the Roman Catholic church to give honor to all their gods. They call it ‘All Saints Day.’ Did I say gods or saints? In Latin, the two words have the same meaning. Such a play on words! Pantheon means, ‘all gods’. It’s polytheistic or having ‘many gods.’ It is said that a man with many gods has no God. ‘All gods’ was changed to ‘All Saints’ just to fool everybody.

“For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the Heavens.”
Psalms 96:5

The ancient Roman Pantheon was built to honor the King of all the gods, Jupiter. In the Greek Pantheon he was Zeus. In ancient Persia they had Ahura Mazda as their supreme head. Marduk or Bel/Baal reigned supreme in the Babylonian Pantheon. He was personified as a dragon.

Which Witch is Which?

October 28, 2022 October 28, 2022 / By aRockStar / Biblical Light, Historical, Holidays of Man

Halloween and witches go hand-in-hand. Parents dress their kids up as witches, adults dress up as witches and witch hats, brooms and black cats decorate storefronts and house porches. Nowadays people treat the idea of witches as just silly costumes and customs to ‘celebrate’ Halloween. Halloween and witches are not something to be celebrated.

It wasn’t all that long ago when accusations of being a witch were a deadly matter, but those witch accusers are not all that innocent themselves. What we have here is a case of the ‘pot calling the kettle black’ that has resulted in the murder of thousands of innocent men, women and children. Witches, sorcerers and those who practice witchcraft are in fact real people, although their ‘witchcraft’ is not based on reality, just a figment of their imaginations. Ironically, pointy hats are involved, just not the ones you’re thinking of.

Halloween is Pagan!

October 24, 2022 October 29, 2022 / By Nemisistar / Holidays of Man

Halloween or Hallowe’en is a contraction of “All Hallows’ evening” or “Holy Eve”. It is a celebration observed in many countries on October 31st, the eve of the Western Roman feast of ‘All Saints Day’. It begins the observance of the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering and venerating the Dead. This makes Halloween a pagan/heathen practice.

The Roman Catholic Church acknowledges its connection to Halloween and Halloween celebrations in that they are common in Catholic parochial schools throughout the United States. The question is: What does the LORD God, Creator of Heaven and earth, think about this pagan practice? And what will be the consequences to those who practice it?

Columbus Day and the Doctrine of Discovery

October 7, 2022 October 10, 2022 / By aRockStar / Historical, Holidays of Man

Columbus Day rolls around every October as a Federal Holiday to remember the ‘discovery’ of America in 1492. As everyone is fully aware, Columbus did not ‘discover’ a barren and unpopulated land. Quite the opposite. There were people, some say 100 million+ people living in North and South America at the time of Columbus’ arrival. But as the ‘Doctrine of Discovery’ makes clear, those people were considered ‘barbarous’ and therefore did not have any claim to the lands they had occupied for millennia.

Recently, Columbus Day has been replaced in many cities and states by Indigenous Peoples Day in response to the relocation and outright genocide of Native Americans. The Papal Bull titled ‘Demarcation Bull Granting Spain Possession of Lands Discovered by Columbus’ dated May 4, 1493 is now referred to as the ‘Doctrine of Discovery‘, a document you should read. This document became the foundation for land rights still incorporated into the Laws of North and South American countries to this day. In the US, the most recent reference to it was in a legal case brought before the Supreme Court in 2005.

Christmas – The Christ Mass

December 24, 2021 January 11, 2023 / By aRockStar / Biblical Light, Holidays of Man

The Christmas Season has once again, come upon the earth. This is the annual period of festivities centered around the winter solstice and the birth of the Sun… or Son as it is now taught. If the purpose of this ‘holy’ day is to celebrate the supposed day of Jesus’ birth why isn’t this day simply called Christ’s Birthday. Why is it instead called Christmas? Learn where this term comes from and why it matters.

War on Christmas 2020

December 12, 2020 January 11, 2023 / By Nemisistar / Biblical Light, Endtimes, Holidays of Man

There has been a “War on Christmas” for thousands of years. Despite the name, it is not Christian. Whenever the Word of God is compared to Traditions of Man there is conflict. Whenever the House of Israel has been confronted by other nations, i.e. Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome, there has been conflict. Many of Israel have forsaken God’s Commandments against these pagan ways and followed them. On the other hand, many of Israel have lost their lives standing up for the Commandments of the God against these pagan nations and their traditions.

“A grapevine has been planted outside of the Father. But being unsound, it will be pulled up by its roots and destroyed.”
Jesus

A Brief History of Easter and Passover

April 14, 2020 March 13, 2023 / By StarGate / Biblical Light, Historical, Holidays of Man, Top Ten

Most “Christians” today celebrate Easter as the day commemorating the resurrection of Jesus. However, early followers of Jesus would not have recognized or celebrated Easter. There is no reference in scripture to the observance of a holiday (Holy Day) to commemorate the “resurrection” of Jesus.

So, Where did Easter come from and how did it get incorporated into today’s “Christianity?”

Time of the Passover

April 13, 2020 June 21, 2022 / By aRockStar / Biblical Light, Endtimes, Holidays of Man

Two major holidays are celebrated this April, Passover and Easter. One has to do with Y’hoshua (Jesus), while the other does not. But it’s not the one you think.

Passover is the time when Jews remember the “passing over” of the plague in Egypt on the night prior to their exodus out of Egypt. Easter and the associated “Maunday Thursday” and “Good Friday” are a Christian celebration of the death of Y’hoshua. Which one actually has something to do with Y’hoshua? Which one did he acknowledge?

The Firstfruits

April 12, 2020 May 27, 2021 / By aShootnStar / Biblical Light, Holidays of Man

God told Moses to speak to the children of Israel concerning His feasts:

“In the fourteenth day of the first month at evening is the Lord’s Passover. And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days you must eat unleavened bread. … When you are come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest.”
Leviticus 23:5-10

parable of wheat — “…but gather the wheat into my barn…” Parable of the Wheat and the Tares” Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43

Does God require that you bring the first stalks of wheat that come out of your garden? What if you can’t grow wheat? Does that make you unacceptable? This seems silly. There must be more to this than what’s on the surface. Let’s take a look at other places in God’s word to see if we can gain a better understanding of what’s being said here…

Passed Over by the Plague

April 9, 2020 June 21, 2022 / By Ariel1mile / Endtimes, Historical, Holidays of Man

The Passover originates from a story in the Book of Exodus that took place when the people of Israel were living in captivity in the land of oppression, also known as Egypt. God had told Moses that he would bring a plague on the land of oppression but that He would cover the people of Israel in order to make it known that God was making a difference between the Egyptians & the people of Israel. This should sound awfully familiar as we are living in a land filled with oppression that currently has a plague sweeping through it.
