Oga femi you are wrong
It is not the date of the celebration that is the issue but the reason for the celebration.
Any body can chose any day to celebrate whatever but the reason on your own part for celebrating is what God is interested in. As we shall be judged individually on the last day.
Remember that ones burial day can be another persons birthday.
As you are celebrating birthday another is doing remembrance day for their late ones while others are even doing idol festival day.
Does this make you a sinner because you guys choose same day?
Be Wise Mr Femi Date for Celebration is not the issue but what you on your on part is celebrating is what God sees.
You have said it all

1.Easter celebration is not based on the bible.

2. Jesus Christ commanded we should commemorate his death and not his resurrection. Luke 22:19,20

3. The origin of Easter which comes from fertility rites, makes Easter unacceptable to God.

Jehovah's witnesses all around the world does not celebrate Easter .

He said they should commemorate his death, I would dispute this fact, because even the bible states the activities that took place after Jesus rose for the grave, he appeared to people, to reveal His resurrection, if He didn't want to make a fuse about it, He would have just gone to Heaven, and no one would have gone to His tomb. His resurrection defeated every sin. It has every to be celebrated EVERYDAY of a true believer life.

Easter celebration is unscriptural, even though world is celebrating it that does not make it acceptable before God. People are not ready to ask why celebrating Easter? They only follow multitude to celebrate pagan festival. I strongly believe that Church of Christ Members will not celebrate Easter. Revelation 22:18-19

Sometimes it baffles me when it comes to matter of faith and people appears not to give a damn. Mr. Femi has brought an allegation on Christianity that Easter celebration is a pagan festive, why is it that we can't even have inquisitive fellows on this platform to do more research about the issue, we rather resort to castigating him for his post and spewing all sort of trash.
I really weep for Nigerians, no wonder people are choosing to become free thinkers than to be enslaved by a faith they can't confide in.

But the wise ones would choose to investigate.

Y celebrating Easter u said? Those celebrating Easter have already stated the reason, so y the question again. If the name Easter is the problem, the name won't be changed because Ishtar and Easter is not the same. Period!

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.

God bless you. I was expecting someone to intelligently provide superior argument but no one has been able to do that.

Black's are so closed minded it is appalling

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

If at all there is a counter thread, it will lack biblical evidence. It will be based on sentiments. Its a shame that self acclaimed Christians don't even know the bible.

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


Have you ever wondered why the words

BIBLE


and


Christianity

were never mentioned any where in the Bible?



The word Bible is not biblical as it means collections of books by different authors.


Logically, it therefore means that the book was not authored by Jesus Alaihis Salam. Hence the reason for amendments and Review because of historical fallacies.

And if Christianity wasn't mention any where then what religion are they practicing? Obviously, not Christianity.


There is no where Jesus said this book is called Bible and the religion called Christianity.

Mr Femi is absolutely right. There could never be any superior position better than this from the Bible that is authentic.



Oh Allah we pray for Devine guidance from you.

Oh Allah may we die not except we are in a state that is most preferred by you.


Amin.

I know that Femi believes in the Bible, but has he ever asked himself why he should believe the Bible since the word, Bible, is not in the Bible?

Femi should know that the Catholic Church is Christianity and Christianity is Catholic!

Someone choose to celebrate is God and ya complaining, whether it's in the Bible or not, who cares...



If God doesn't want it, he should have sent a message to stop it, at least when some Africans were killing people as sacrifice God sent someone to admonished it...



I can choose to celebrate my God every Tuesday and give it whatever name I like, as far as my mind is clear and what I'm doing is toward the glorification of the almighty..


Have not heard or read where God said we shouldn't celebrate him, till then hood your peace.

The essence of Christianity is to change negative things to be positive. If such an era of demonic worship could be reversed for a fruitful services to remember God's manifestations of His supreme price of reconciling us back to Himself, then us should be commended.
Although the facts presented here are very convincing, it doesn't and cannot totally replace the actual and ultimate content of salvation.
Femi Aribisala, thank you for the exposition but take a break and think of the change in the positive light.

To start with, I don't like Mr. Femi but who cares.

I take time to read up stuff and then go back to do my findings.

On an issue of this enormous importance to Christian faithful, I would've expected bible verses countering the author's submissions.

Call him anything, if nobody is deep and learned enough to stand up to this write up bullet point for point, you've only succeeded in proving to a number of careful observers that there's a need to consider his claims to be correct.

No name calling, no insults, take this man up on biblical facts and quash his claims. Anything short of this, I stand by his submissions.

QED.
