I think it's funny to wish anybody a 'happy' ash Wednesday. We all know that ash Wednesday marks d beginning of lenten sober reflection.

Christians are the most Hipocritical Creatures on Eart.

Lent : They will give excuse why it isn't compulsory to fast.

Fast : They will come up with excuses to best suit their time. 12noon, 3pm, 6pm. Some will even say you are allowed to drink water or eat fruit inbetween.

Dressing: You are allowed to dress anyhow, i.e. expose you cleavage and thighs, wear weavon and eye lashes, piercing and tattoos. "Afterall Jesus has wiped away our sins".

Sex:
Premarital sex is now very much permitted. Even pastors no longer preach against it
.



Catholic Remains the True Christianity.

Re: Happy Ash Wednesday by okunfemm(m): 6:24am On Mar 01, 2017
I think there is need to leave all dis tradition which are not scriptural and face the essentials of the bible. Pls dis question

Did jesus put on ash

Did jesus command it & say do it in remembrance of me like Lord supper

Is the priest our Saviour or Jesus

Is through the putting of ash that cleanses our sin... What about d blood of Jesus that was shared on the cross.

Enough of all this jamboree & idol worship.

Is d OP a Catholic sef, if ur a Catholic, u should know that there is nothing like happy Ash Wednesday, it's inappropriate, today is a day of sober reflection, to reflect on the fact that u r dust and to d dust u shall return, those words should set u thinking on the path u have taken n this life, reflect on ur relationship with God and the number of times u have strayed away from him...... It's a day of abstinence.....so it's inappropriate to wish someone happy ash Wednesday

GOD'S WORD® Translation:

Never make your own carved idols or statues that represent any creature in the sky, on the earth, or in the water.
JPS Tanakh 1917:

Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
New American Standard 1977:

“You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth.
Jubilee Bible 2000:

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above or that is in the earth beneath nor that is in the water under the earth.
