Check Wikipedia and Brittanica too

For reference of the world book encyclopedia

WB Encyclopedia (volume 3, page 416) . That's the reference page . Go and do your assignment and get it.

Provide the link here....Hypocrite!

Are they not Jews ? Jews refrain from such practices due to their pagan sources .

So Jews are now our standard to know what is right. Continue.....

My point is, why Jesus didn't condemn it when He knows about it? Since He is aware of it before He died because [b]your point was, Jesus can't condemn what the apostles or early Christians didn't do.

CAPTIVATOR:
Luke 22:19,20 Lord's evening meal . As commanded : Do this in remembrance of me

We can as well say you're celebrating the Christ death, right?

A teaching not commanded by Jesus , celebration of his ressurection .

Have you forgotten Matt 28:19,20 Teach them to observe what ? All the things Jesus command.


Where did Jesus command Easter ?

Where does Jesus command you to celebrate your Graduation?

Besides, You can use the word REMEMBRANCE in place of CELEBRATION so that your confusion can be cured.

Also, Christ resurrection established the Lord's Day which is the same Sunday you gather in your Hall to preach lies and deceits to your members.

CAPTIVATOR:
World book Encyclopedia state " The early Christians did not celebrate His [Christ's] birth because they considered the celebration of anyone's birth to be a pagan custom."

Provide the link...Hypocrite!

How can Jesus condemn in the Bible something none of his apostles or early followers never attempted ?

So Jesus never heard of Birthday celebration before He died...Yet He condemned many Pharisees and Sadducees attitudes or are they not celebrating birthday

CAPTIVATOR:
So he wasn't ressurected on Nisan 14, why are you now trying to weave Easter with Memorial ?

Men gave the command of Easter not GOD!

What is memorial?
What is easter?

CAPTIVATOR:
What was ressurected , Jesus or ordinary body ?

Dem dey ressurect soul wey no die ?

Clarify yourself more here!

CAPTIVATOR:
Did Jesus ask you to celebrate his ressurection?

Did Jesus ask you NOT to celebrate His resurrection?

Or was he ressurected on Nissan 14 too?

No be only Nissan na Toyota....

And who says He resurrected on Nisan 14

U wonder how Easter even came about for people who don't believe Jesus died talkless of been ressurected. Na im flesh die, not him.

Easter is the celebration of the RISEN LORD JESUS, how is that your headache?

CAPTIVATOR:
The early Christians view the celebration of anyone's birthday as a pagan custom . Many encyclopedias testify to this.

Can you provide a proved data for this?

Even in the Bible, No servant of God celebrated their birthday . Even Jesus himself didn't , so where do you get your idea from ?

There are many things you're doing today and weren't recorded in the Bible....so spare us that!

If Jesus didn't...
Did Jesus say you shouldn't do it or where did Jesus condemn it?

joyandfaith:
he had passover meal with his disciples, started lord evening, arrested and died in nissan 14. read your bible well.

I do not celebrate easter.

Evening....but was arrested and move from prison to prison before crucifixion.

What is the meaning of easter? That's the question

joyandfaith:
ok. what is the root of Christmas and Easter in the Bible?

The root of Christmas is the birth of Christ and the most important event that brings hope for everyone "The death & resurrection of Christ"

How does these pagan?

Which one do you have problem with....
1. The day The Birth of Christ is being celebrated or The actual Birthday of Christ itself?
2. The day Resurrection of Christ is being celebrated or the Death & Resurrection itself?

joyandfaith:
Jesus celebrated passover in nissan 14, after passover he introduced lord super. passover used to be marked on nissan 14 .
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at dusk 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 ye shall eat unleavened bread. In the first day ye shall have a holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work. And ye shall bring an offering made by fire unto the LORD seven days; in the seventh day is a holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work. ( Leviticus 23:5–8

Yet you claim He died on Nisan 14....

So to you what is easter?

joyandfaith:
Nissan is first month in Jewish calendar which corresponds to March/April in gregorian calendar. Nissan 14 can fall to anyday anyway week-Monday to Sunday not necessary Friday to Monday in Easter celebration.
For next year memorial of christ date Nissan 14 falls on Tueday 7 as against April 10 for good Friday.

Where was it written in the scripture that the Jesus statement "Do this in remembrance of me" should be on Nissan 14?

On which day did Christ broke bread and drank wine with His disciples and said "Do this in remembrance of me"?

jesusjnr:
It seems you miss road, or do you think I'm a worshipper of Paul and see him as the Holy Spirit as you do?

This is a greater revelation than that which Paul had, and if you can't see it I won't blame you, because you've refused to look beyond the man called Paul to Jesus who is the Master.

So next time you see me, don't mistake me for someone who is under obligation to Paul's teachings, for I am only under obligation to the teachings of Jesus.

So keep what Paul said to yourself!

Smile....But Paul's Epistles were part of what you called 66 books of God's word or do you disagree with that?

Anyways, your fruit has identified you.

joyandfaith:
No sir. we commemorate death of jesus in obeying jesus command keep doing this in remembrance of me -luke 22:19. Easter celebration is rooted in paganism. that is why it always falls to Friday to Monday which may not correspond to Nissan 14 exact date jesus was killed in Jewish calendar.

See delusion...

But it has to be in the month and day of Easter....why not doing it in the month like September, October or even January?

Yet you agreed Easter is rooted in paganism....

joyandfaith:
every invention has a inventor. have you asked yourself who invented Christmas and esther? Christmas and Easter were not celebrated until about 300 years after death of 12 apostles. so 12 apostles did not celebrate Christmas and easter? why are we doing ovresabi?

But your organization also celebrates Easter....

jesusjnr:
No I meant His (kind of) death. Everyone dies but no single one has died without sinning.

That's not any kind of death, but the only kind of death that could bring about salvation and eternal lifd.

So His resurrection was just a formality, but His death was a necessity!

Oh I wish I could know the power of His death!

God bless.

Stop turning scripture upside down....

Apostle Paul said "....that I may know the power of His resurrection"

jesusjnr:
Without the birth of Jesus there would be no death, but i prefer to celebrate His death more than His birth, because that's where my eternal comes from.

God bless

Your eternity doesn't come from Christ death rather from Christ resurrection....

Resurrection is the basis of Christianity....

FOLYKAZE:
I am getting confused about him. At a point, he was very evangelical. At a point, he appears to have a disdain for Jesus and Christianity. Now he is bashing white Jesus. I don't understand him at all.

That's how confused he is

FOLYKAZE:
@frosbel2, are you a christian?

Are you the one asking this question?

EMILO2STAY:
the only man in history who has explored the antarctic ice walls to a large extent is admiral Richard . E. Byrd
He reported of finding a vast area of land bigger than the whole of the united states and rich in mineral resources beyond the antarctic ice walls. The area was closed down after his explorations and declared a no fly and no sail zones. The antarctic treaty is a military enforced law which does not allow independent explorers to probe deep into the antarctic ice walls.

How does the explorer ship go beyond the ice wall?

I thought you flat earthers say, the ice wall is very high and the one that stops the ocean

There is a saying " the taste is in the pudding " expensive research.. Meaning I will have to either buy 07 civic or loan one for few months.. The car will have to be driven And tested for few months. And also under the same conditions has the other cars and civic on uber..

Thanks for your input...

I actually asked someone yesterday who has used Civic '11 for uber and the man gave a good testimony about the car, he even said the car is cost less in maintenance than corolla.

Thou only complain about the car not too high which can easily be affected by high bumbs or rough road.

Have you asked how he is able to sustain the Camp?

Maximus69:
The flaws in Baba's statement is simple and easy to point out, but Churchgoers have been blinded by credulity so it can't be that easy for people without the knowledge of God to figure out that the man is FAKE!

Note the word "I will"

Take note of the person who said something similar in ancient times! Well his name is David (second Israelite's King). This man wanted to build a house for God but the idea was rejected because David has "too much blood in his hands"

So David passed on the task to his son Solomon who later built a marvelous temple for God in Jerusalem.

Now let's look critically into the issue. David and Solomon were Kings having authority over the resources of their nation that's why they could divert such huge material resources to such a gigantic project.

If we're to look at this Baba talking, he claims to be a Christian and according to the Bible no single individual amongst Christians ever embarked on such a project (to build a house for God).

Christians in the first century come together and materials were gathered from the purses of each member (as they're able to spare) and they spend each dime on what's necessary. Because whatever they do is to the glory of God, so none of them could say "I will do this" since the money belongs to the church and NOT any individual!

With this statement Baba has exposed himself as the alpha and omega of all the contributions those Churchgoers under him brings in!

Even Jesus Christ has no such say on what was given to his group, rather he allowed the cash to be in the hand of one of his followers. And when they were in dare need pay for something really serious Jesus asked them to go and use the money they find IN A FISH, why?

Because he is not in charge of whatever is in the treasury, it belongs to the group to decide what to do or how to spend it!

Yet you'll be claiming to be the true follower of Jehovah and everyone else are not but see how you openly lied against someone on a public forum without the fear of God.

it's only Devil that has the boldness to lie in an open place without shame.

Where in the article did you read that the man use the word "I WILL"?

You better repent from your evil away.

Can you see that the Spirit of truth isn't in you...how then can you delusionally claim to be of Christ?

if you can lie against someone in an open forum like this, how much more will you lie against the person in your Hall?

dru23:

I don't understand those people self, they sent me to somewhere for an interview, after the interview, two weeks later. I told them I didn't here from them again. They want me to come for somewhere they said is an institution job. They are just getting job openings and sending people there. Maybe if your lucky then there terms and conditions will apply. Please I don't have TP for such Waka now

Do you know more about their terms and conditions?

LordReed:
If you don't understand English in the morning why don't you wait till afternoon before replying, by then your brain would have adjusted to understand.

When in reality you're the very one who needs to enroll in English class.

Did I say the only people who think the world is flat are religious?

This is your statement again: "Depends on who you ask. There are people still saying the earth is flat and using the bible to backup their views"

JMAN05:
The author is a Hebrew. He used a word in his language that can mean circle or sphere. If you chose to translate circle, nothing is wrong, you only have to recognize that what the writer means is that the Earth is round in shape, not flat.

It can mean circle or sphere yet I have never come across any translations that used the word SPHERE in that verse even your own translation.

At job 22:14 the words of the appeared as "vault" of heaven (ASV). Which is a hemisphere as could be deduced from Earth. So when he used the same word for the Earth, it won't be consistent to think of a flat Earth. Rather, a globe or round shape.

Vault here is heaven which can mean the atmosphere/sky or even what the flat earther called DOME above the earth which is also Hemisphere in shape....

So you see everyone can interpret it to suit themselves as they want. Better we silent where Bible silent rather than forcing it to say what it didn't say.

JMAN05:
Now the upon can be translated above. That is more logical. The circle could also be translated sphere. This is logically, what the prophet meant. That the Earth is spherical.

So you're the one who will tell us what the prophet meant just because your organization supported Globe earth.

I understand why some people would want to believe in a flat Earth. That was the belief among the philosophers.

So you mean only philosophers believe in flat earth....this is pure delusion.

LordReed:
Depends on who you ask. There are people still saying the earth is flat and using the bible to backup their views.

I don't know why some Atheists will just be lying boldly...

Is it only a religious person that support the flat earth model?

Are there not people who are saying the earth is flat without using Bible?
