Lol...He can also agree to worship idol on earth here and it will be agreed in heaven too. A lot of people are just ignorant and many are going to hell because of all these pagan festivals rooted in idolatry.

saintmark88:


I dnt care about it's origin, I worship God through faith, I believe in the church Cos it is body of Christ, nd Christ the head, As far as it is a celebration tht gives Glory to God, then by faith I believe tht at Easter I celebrate the resurrection on my Lord Jesus Christ. You tht talks about it's origin, my question for you is were you born den, u only talk because of wah u av read, foolish is the man that believes all tht he reads,...........Christains worship through faith...... Not origin

blueseacats:
I think somewhere in the bible 1 Corinthians 11:24. Jesus during the last supper. He said "do this in remembrance of me. I don't care for Christmas at all . But the death of Christ and resurection is like nothing any man has ever done and I will keep celebrating it cause that is the bases of my believe.

thorpido:
How can you believe in the death and not believe in the birth?Is the death not because there was a birth?Something is amiss!

By the way,as Christians we are not celebrating dates(that's what unbelievers bother and argue about).We celebrate purpose- whether it's a sunday or tuesday,December or October is not what matters.

You would have said Jesus did not die na. What sort of thing is this? Please do not alter our christain faith like a catalyst...... Jesus died for us on a friday,,rose on the third day...... CHIKINA,,FINITO,,NO ARGUEMENT..... Happy Easter pals....

Femi Aribisala should gerrarahia.
The purpose- life,death and resurrection is all that matters.

Give me a bible quotation that hints that we should celebrate birth. Else am not interested. I believe even he himself knew that his death and resurection calls for remembrance that's why he did not forget to mention it. Since he did not mention Christmas, am out . Mind you, I did not completely disagree with the author just that I thought he would have picked Christmas instead of Easter , Jesus is a spirit and he is God, he could have rolled up into this world in any way he wanted so being born is not significant to him , in fact I think it was even a distraction that he had family members.

sckulboy:

Ans: God.
Proof: Mk 12:36David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared: "'The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.

if d 1st law out d 12 comandment state dat ur God is 1 den aw com d trinity in God?

after risin 4rm d death he left to wia?
n y did he left 4 wat purpose?
Ans: He went to heaven to prepare a place for us that we might be with him.
Proof: John 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am



did mari give birth to anoda child after jesus?
Yes
Proof: While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers came and stood outside, asking to speak to him. 13:55 Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother named Mary? And aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Jude


if yes who mari d wife of God?
She was married to Joseph and wasn't eternal virgin. She was only a virgin till the birth of Jesus
Proof:
It was then that the angel appeared to Joseph in a dream (Matthew 1:20-25) and explained to him that all this was bringing about the fulfillment of prophecy that a virgin would bear a child who was to be the Savior (Isaiah 7:14), and “he [Joseph] did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.


plz read d Bible

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

...



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...

thorpido:
Matthew 2:8-11.People celebrated the birth of Jesus.Indeed Jesus didn't leave instructions about celebrating His birth or death.It was the people who chose to celebrate it and rightly so.Remember the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem?Did you Jesus say they should do it?Yet He celebrated it.
If you celebrate the death and the resurrection,then you should celebrate the birth.for without the birth,there can be no death and resurrection.

RobinHez:

So u saying we should only remember the death and resurrection on a fixed date of a pagan holiday? When Jesus explicitly stated that we observe the Lord's supper as often as we can in remembrance of him

jamace:
Everything you know today about Christianity came out of customs and traditions of the early church, which the Catholic Church represents. Fact!

If you want to believe only things in the scriptures then you should start from denying the Bible because the word "Bible" is not in the scriptures!

Godswillnwaoma:
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 .

Chrixtopha:
Lucky you that this is new age because by now you would have been beheaded for heresy..... now i believe that not every one that can write, read and even update are alive, some are walking dead....Femi you are already a dead man to be reasoning like this...happy Easter to you all jare

RobinHez:

U joking right?

blueseacats:
Oga, we have known this story since whites brought Christianity here, but there is no where it says "do this in remembrance of me" this statement in my opinion is the single most important statement urging Christians to celebrate Christianity not Christmas, for Christ himself did not celebrate his own birthday.

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!

RobinHez:


A typical example of the rich man asking Abraham to send someone from the dead to counsel his brothers.

The only way God is gonna speak to us is through His word, and that is where the OP based his arguments on. So it's left for you to do ur research to know more.

My living in Europe has made me very sure that Easter has never been a Christian celebration from onset. It was a pagan celebration incorporated into Christianity by the Roman emperor Constantine to appease the pagans who were being forcefully converted into catholism that was made d state religion by Constantine. Till today, Easter is still celebrated in Europe with its original pagan facets. Things like egg hunting and Easter burneys are still part of it.

Can anyone plz tell me wat eggs and rabbits has to do with d death and resurrection of Jesus? How come the day of Easter is always Friday? Can anyone's death anniversary fall on d same day every year. Attached is a picture of a typical Easter shrine that I snapped on Thursday in Germany. Plz notice d decorations with coloured eggs, where in d Bible does that come from. I thank God for not being enslaved to the teachings of men. It's high time we open our eyes in Africa to see that d Christianity brought to us is infused with loads of pagan celebrations like Easter, Christmas, new year ,e.t.c study the Bible with Jehovah's witnesses and ur eyes will be opened to the truth!!

iamord:
are you this desperate? Because you have no answers you tend to use the word faith and that u don't care about the origins? You have deified the essence of your religion beliefs and shows that you don't know nothing about what u worship. A disgrace to Christendom. Although you profess your love for a saviour and your hero, all the image you have of him is the indoctrinated pic depicted of him
In the end. You are all pagans but blind pagans

Evyivy:
Woa! He does read the Bible but has no clue at all about Christ.
