Femi u are waisting ur tym...already eating ma chunk of meat[code]

Lol...dat one is ya bizneiss...Happy Easter Everyone....where's refiner @?...

This theory doesn't change anything jare, if u like celebrate if u no like no celebrate

The man has given detailed reasons.

I do not see a single rebuttal here. Rather everyone is saying they don't care or that the man is mad or something.

I weep for my country.

Christians are some kinda dumb set of people... Seriously no offense.

Op, u are not making sense. Believe whatever u like, but remember that we all are Believers because none of us ever saw Jesus or Mohammed. Christians believe in Jesus as their Saviour and Muslims believe in Mohammed as their Prophet..... Pls Op, u can as well believe in Pharaoh as ur godfather.

Pls allow Christians to celebrate the resurrection of their Master. I believe ur kind will kick against Christmas too. Habah!

Some people won't like this ... But christain celebrations from Christmas to Easter has been a fraud... Let me also include church wedding

I am @ here!

Today is easter and that is a fact, nobody can change dat. They don't like it when people are celebrating christ.

I think it makes sense.

Trash for Lawma
Story for gods
Non ma businesss

Well brother, it's not about what it's called, it's about what's in our hearts, the purpose, the significance. The Christian Easter is not about Ham's wife or whoever, it's about Jesus Christ

oga femi, if you want the easter chicken come and collect it.

I expect a counter thread for this, but if there is none within 5 hrs I'll believe this man is 101% right.

Babylon! The source of all paganism. The original manuscripts of of the bible are still available to confirm d OP's claims. Most translators of the English bible allowed there work to b influenced by customs and traditions of their time. Emperor Constantine christined a lot of pagan doctrines into d church. Easter and Xmas are few examples. Wen reading d bible, free ur mind from doctrines and traditions of ur church, remove sentiments and b objective. Compare other translations to get d context. U myt find urself in d OP's shoes.

Sunnycliff:
Go and sit down Femi! If you don't want to celebrate you don't disabuse the minds of people! Its just a remembrance of the resurrection day of our Lord Jesus Christ! We Pray to God through his son Jesus Christ and not to any fetish god!

I laff at nigerian xtains- see comment abeg.

thorpido:
Just wondering if the Op was there when the 'smuggling' was going on.

d OP was high on something.

Very apt.
No record of Jesus' disciples or the first century Christians celebrating the resurrection of Christ as an annual ritual.
And for those that say the origin does not matter but the purpose is the most important. Then you can as well take up a candy from the toilet and lick it since the candy is very sweet not minding the source.

This is one tin i love abt christianity, any demented person can conjure rubbish abt Christ n Notin will happen, OP since u know history very well, why don't u give us something like " why Mohammed is not the true messenger of Allah" i really thank God for God.

sonOfLucifer:

Lol. ONe has to wonder what else could have been smuggled into the Bible? What about the story of Mary's virginity? Jesus' death? The Rapture? What if the Bible is a lie?

What if the bible is a lie, you asked. Wait a minute, you will discover this very soon but I hope it will never be too late or for your everlasting regret.

Femi arigisala u are a satanic person al dis rubish u are is like u av brain tourch oolosi omo ale

This Easter is so wrong, i do not need to be a Jehovah's witness to understand why or know the truth, the funny thing is these pastors know this, but will never give or preach the truth. That last great day is coming.

You might be right in ur own views.. But one thing you fail to understand is the Bible what ever we agreed on earth is agreed in Heaven... We Christian have agreed to mark this day for our lord JESUS so that what ever pagan believe or celebration that has been correlate to this same day will be abolished from the face of the earth

Lol. Who cares?

. U can't see a counter thread. U can only see sentimental wailing of ppl who cannot defend their beliefs from God's word d bible- the constitution of Christians.

Ok

Like my pastor once said, if we get to heaven and find out it was all false, we will only have missed out on HIV/AIDS, a guilty conscience, jail time and other vices caused by immorality.

EXACTLY MY BROTHER


SOME PEOPLE ARE SO SICK THEY HATE TO BE CURED.


EASTER IS PAGAN, CHRISTMAS ALSO.


FIRST CENTURY CHRISTIANS LIKE THEM APOSTLE PAUL AND TIMOTHY WHO WHERE GOOD BIBLE STUDENTS NEVER PRACTICED ANY OF THESE..


USE YOUR HEAD...


WILL YOU EAT POOP AND SAY ITS BECAUSE OF THE REASON NOT MINDING ITS POOP...


I UNDERSTAND ITS DIFFICULT TO RUN AWAY FROM THESE PRACTICES.


BUT RUN AWAY...ITS JUST THE RIGHT THING TO DO...


GOOD ONE OP.

Mad people every where. Even this femi is one of them. Including the frustrated president self. Mad all of them with fuel scarcity problem wey them dey carry around innocent pple

Cutehector:
Satan will always try to put confusion in d hearts of men.

But he has failed already.

yesoo ! if i dont celebrate the death and resurrection of my saviour what then is worth celebrating

To you it's a pagan festival, To me it's remembering the Resurrected King.
The mindset.

Everyone is free to celebrate their whatever today, that doesn't affect my celebrating the Risen Christ.
Easter Weekend is time to be home with family and celebrate the death and Resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. In Nigeria, we do not know much about egg hunting and painting and other Western stuff, honestly unlike Christmas, Easter celebrations are kinda boring in many families. People just dress up, go to church, come back home, eat Sunday rice and chicken, and... that's it. Some go nap while others get busy with gadgets taking and posting pics Online. Here is how you can make your Nigerian Easter
celebration more fun for the whole family.
Easter holiday continues till Monday, so, here is how we do it in my family: On Sunday morning, everyone goes to church, my gele tying always makes us late for Easter services anyway and because this is a special Sunday, we do not come back to spend the whole day cooking rice and sweating and entertaining guests. Well, we do cook when we invite friends for Easter Lunch or dinner but that doesn't happen every year. This year, my family already have plans for our Nigerian Easter celebration. No stress, we celebrate the resurrection and have fun together.

After church, we'll drive somewhere not too expensive like Tantalizers or Mr Biggs or my favourite Aunty Ajobi at Drumstix; eat lunch and go from there for an Easter movie at the cinemas. Aunty Eya, we live in Abuja too, so, after the movie, we spend some time at the galleria, if you'll be there please holler at moi. while the kids play fun games and do a few other things. By this time it should be evening already if not night. Home we go from here, eat some light quick dinner and that's it.

How to spend Easter Monday:
Because this is a holiday, we create fun but, basically not much... There is a general morning devotion in the sitting room where we all gather and praise God. We go for a picnic at noon, spend the rest of the day there, return and watch an Easter movie at home after Dinner, then it's a good night.
Please share on the blog in case others have fun suggestions for Easter in Nigeria.

Abstinence not Christianity reduces your chances of contracting HIV/AIDS. A conscience need not Christianity to be pure. Jail time is for those who trespass the law. We've seen people kill in God's name.
