Did you know…
… That Easter did not originate with Jesus’ resurrection, but was celebrated for many centuries before that time?
… that Pagans celebrated the supposed resurrection of their false Gods many centuries before Christ’s time?
… that Easter gets its name from an ancient fertility goddess?
… that rabbits and eggs have nothing to do with Christ’s resurrection, but are holdovers from ancient spring fertility celebrations?
… that neither the apostles nor the early Christians celebrated Easter?
… the word Easter appears only once in the Bible, and that one time is a mistranslation of the Greek word for the Passover?
… that the Bible mentions God’s people participating in pagan Easter celebrations, and that God calls their participation in this festival an abomination? You can find this in Ezekiel 8:14. This is a description of participation in what is now known as Lent.
