This is my full answer from some time ago post which was flagged on a different platform.
Ash Wednesday
Every Catholic in the world "knows" what Ash Wednesday is; it is the first day of Lent. Roman Catholic churches of the Latin Rite use this service to prepare themselves for the passion and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. Ashes from the burned palms of the preceding year's Palm Sunday are blessed. With these ashes, the priest marks a cross on the foreheads of those who come forward and kneel, saying, "Remember, man, that dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return." (Genesis 3:19 KJV) The question is; how many devoted Catholics know the REAL story behind Ash Wednesday? How many know that this tradition has clear pagan roots? Do they know that it is not in the Bible?
Ash Wednesday is actually of Roman paganism, which took it from Vedic India and was admitted into the church beliefs of the Catholic Church (Vatican) a few hundred years after Christ. This was the era when Constantine was attempting to weld pagans and Christians into a unit within the Roman kingdom.
Ashes were called the seed of the fire god Agni, with power to forgive sins. Ashes were said to were a symbol for the purifying blood of Shiva, in which, one could bathe away sins. During Rome's New Year Feast of Atonement in March, people wore sackcloth and bathed in ashes to atone for their sins. As the dying god of March, Mars took his worshippers sins with him into death. The carnival fell on dies martis, the Day of Mars. In English, this was Tuesday, because Mars was identified with the Saxon god Tiw. In French the carnival day was Mardi Gras, "Fat Tuesday," the day of merrymaking before Ash Wednesday.
Ashes are the residue of fire, and just as fire is regarded in mythology and folklore as something which purifies and also regenerates, or brings new life, so the same properties are associated within ashes.
From Biblical times, sprinkling oneself with ashes has been a mark of sorrow for sin. Those who honor Ash Wednesday add to this meaning of penance a second point; the need to prepare for a holy death. The churches of the Anglican Communion, as well as some other Protestant churches observe this day. Eastern Rite churches do not. Their Lent begins on the preceding Monday.
Valentine's day
Valentine's Day - is a pagan festival that encourages love and physical lust. It is celebrated precisely 13 days after Imbolg, thus imprinting upon it the number '13', Satan's number of extreme rebellion. While most people view this day as the day to honor your wife or your lover, this celebration is steeped in paganism.
Consider the camouflaged occult gods in Valentine's Day:
Cupid, the son of Venus, is really Tammuz, son of Semiramis. Venus, daughter of Jupiter, is really Semiramis herself. Jupiter is the head deity, a sun god - Nimrod, Semiramis' husband, is considered a sun god in the Babylonian Mysteries.
Listen to a pagan author describe February, the month in which Valentine's Day falls:
"The name of this month comes from the Roman goddess Februa and St. Febronia (from Febris, the fever of love). She is the patroness of the passion of love ... Her orgiastic rites are celebrated on 14 February - still observed as St. Valentine's Day - when, in Roman times, young men would draw billets naming their female partners...
This is a time of clear vision into other worlds, expressed by festivals of purification. On 1 February is the celebration of the cross-quarter day, or fire festival (Imbolc) a purificatory festival. It is followed on the 2nd by its Christian counterpart, Candlemas, the purification of the Virgin Mary."
Valentine's Day is a day of "orgiastic rites" in which the pagans encouraged the flow of lustful passion.
(New Age) Earth's Day
Death is riding his Pale Horse over the Horizon of History and speeding towards his appointment with fate. Yet, very few neither hear his hoof-beat nor see his figure rapidly approach: And even fewer understand that we truly live in prophetic times and that End Time Bible prophecy is happening in real time today. Thus, as the Forces of Darkness ready their armies for the coming battle, and direct their minions in the apostate church, High Finance, the mass media, academia and the political class to complete their destruction of Western Christian Civilisation, the masses sleep soundly… Wholly unaware of the great significance of the times in which they live and the lateness of the hour.
We live in very dangerous times and although many people recognise this, there are very few that comprehend the true nature and scale of the threat facing mankind. Very few people truly understand the enormity of the situation. Many think they do but they do not. These poorly informed commentators, many with the best of intentions but also many of them agent provocateurs, spooks and shills, to not only act as distractions but also function as "leaders" and "oracles." Unfortunately for their followers, where these people lead them is not to enlightenment and Truth but into gross error, apostasy and spiritual death.
The world's most powerful mass media is based in the West but this is alien-controlled: controlled by Zionists and so by the Evil Jewish Leadership and by this the Ancient Cult of Evil manifest today as the Illuminati. Moreover, the same Dark Force that has corrupted and controlled the political class for over a century; and which today has co-opted politicians and governments to debase their currencies, destroy their nations' industrial base, and pledge national economies to the International Banksters, the Invisible Money Power, who seek absolute and total World Power.
"Globalism" is the mechanism and cover-all used by the self-appointed world elite by which it has successfully looted the economies of the Western World, "redistributed" the wealth of the West to the East, and began the gradual, inexorable de-industrialisation of the West in readiness for the One World Economy of the New World Order. For, in the New International Economic Order, the Second and Third World economies are not be raised to that of the First, rather, the economy of the First World is to be smashed down to that of the lower economies. This primary goal of the Globalists –looting the West and destroying its industrial capacity- is in large part the reason for the Controlled Demolition of the World Economy.
Intrinsic to the coming New International Economic Order is a radical plan to make it efficient, make it "sustainable," by reducing the world population and so drastically curtailing "consumption" and the demands made by man upon Mother Earth. Put differently, a ruthless Population Reduction Agenda in which at least 90% of the world population is slated for destruction is intrinsic to the New World Order.
Of course, those who are ignorant of the true nature of the New World Order would ridicule such an idea calling it "conspiracy theory." The New World Order agent provocateurs, spooks and shills, acting as distractions and functioning as "leaders" and "oracles" would agree. However, if one takes the intellectual effort to scratch off the thin veneer of philanthropy from the New World Order Agenda and study the writings of its propagandists, one would soon discover intrinsic to their "Plan" is a ruthless cull of humanity.
While the Invisible Money Power, its minions, agents and Useful Idiots of the World Revolutionary Movement have been tasked to destroy the World Economy in general and America's specifically, others are set about preparing the way for mass genocide. In other words, the evil counterpart of the planned World Financial Crisis, the orchestrated Economic Gotterdammerung, is the planned and orchestrated cull of humanity. Why is this so? Some uninformed commentators think the Depopulation Agenda is about simply about reducing the amount of mouths to feed, the Useless Eaters, since the Global Elite do not wish to share the resources which they have worked so hard to steal.
Thus, not only is the corruption, demoralisation and mongrelisation of humanity intrinsic to the Ancient Blueprint for World Government but also the mass culling of the human herd. Hence, all Proper Students of History who understand the way of the world and have a thorough understanding of the World Revolutionary Movement and the New World Order, know that the planned take down of the World Economy and the Planned Population Reduction Agenda are complimentary aspects of the Evil Agenda for World Government. That is, the World Financial Meltdown -the Controlled Demolition of the Global Economy- and the Eugenic Population Reduction Agenda are inseparable parts of the New World Order Agenda.
The New World Order's misanthropy and evil intent towards greater humanity are easily seen in words and deeds and is part of the occult imperative called the Revelation of the Method. Moreover, almost embarrassingly blatant in the New Age mindset and the Radical Environmental Movement and the antics of New World Order lackeys such as Maurice Strong, the billionaire Canadian oil mogul and Rockefeller arse-licker, Mikhail Gorbachev, the former dictator of Russia, and Al Gore the wannabe first "Carbon Tax" billionaire. The misanthropy and evil intent is clearly manifest in the UN's "Earth Charter" promoted as the "21st Century's Ten Commandments," and "Agenda 21," which deals with such things as property rights, biodiversity, health, energy, water and agriculture. That is, a miscellany of blasphemy and spurious philosophies that are now the dogma of not only the environmentalists but also abroad church of liberals, communists and radicals.
Very powerful forces are promoting "Agenda 21" and the "Earth Charter" as the Earth's new "gospel." They are promoting Radical Environmentalism and its anti-God, anti-Christian, misanthropy, authoritarian elitism and hostility to modern industrialized society as the new paradigm, the new religion of the 21st Century. Put differently, the Powers of Darkness are foisting Radical Environmentalism upon humanity as the new world religion. They are working to replace existing spiritual and ethical systems with their brand of man-hating environmentalism and even have it replace "The Communist Manifesto" in the hearts of communists, socialists, liberals as the means to finally bring about their eagerly anticipated World Socialist Empire. Moreover, it is an ideology with radical doctrines and numerous "action items" when enacted will weave a web of control, management and punitive charges and expense that will bring unbelievable hardship to industrialized nations and every individual living in them. For, in truth, those behind it seek to bring Western industrial society to its knees and by that bring the about the final collapse of Western Christian Civilization in preparation for the establishment of the New World Order.

"Agenda 21" and the "Earth Charter" are, of course, part of the blueprint for global "eco-socialism" developed by wicked and evil people. That is why environmentalism is the cornerstone of the New World Order and that is why at the heart of radicalised environmentalism is not the love of the environment but a great and enduring hatred for mankind.
Central to the New Age mindset and Radical Environmentalism, and so the New World Order Agenda, is the decimation of the world's population. Not only is the mass cull of humanity recommended as a solution to the supposed "over population" problem but also eagerly awaited by the Global Elite and its countless lackeys as a sort of consummation of their Ancient Plan to Transform Society.
The leaders of the New Age and and radical environmentalists (Global Elite minions) repeatedly warn overpopulation is the greatest threat on Earth and that that radical measures are needed to defuse the "population bomb" including the calculated culling of a large part of humanity. In fact, they have actively promoted and even written it in stone that humanity must be cut via planned mass extermination by up to 95% to at least "500 million in perpetual balance with nature."
The Luciferians and Satanists orchestrating the Ancient Evil Agenda for World Government have long planned the mass cull of the world's people -the Useless Eaters- by various means. By various methods that can conveniently be classified into two categories: the so-called Soft Kill strategies, which are augmented by Hard Kill strategies. The first includes largely unseen methods that are deployed slowly over many years that inexorably reduce individual health and societal viability: That is, the Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars. The second includes violent, direct methods of killing usually deployed at times of strife and during wars. That is, in planned revolutions and world wars and during declared martial law.
The establishment of the New World Order necessitates the usurping of Natural Moral Order on Earth, the destruction Western Christian Civilization as well as the dissolution of all sovereignty of all nations. That is why all elitist groups have one objective in common: bringing about the spiritual and moral collapse of Western society and the surrender of the sovereignty and the national independence of all nations but especially the national integrity of the United States of America founded as a Republic on Christian Principles.
Hence the reason behind the Liberal Establishment's utter betrayal of the Western World and its people. Why it has forced through laws and policies wholly inimical to the ancient concepts of race, nation, patriotism and family. Why also the Liberal Elite -who is secretly at war with society- is doing everything to destroy it. Why the Liberal Elite -who are merely lackeys of the Invisible Money Power- are the traitors within seeking to turn the Western World into a wretched collective of Third World nations. Why the Multicultural nightmare, Open Borders and illegal and "legal" immigration of tens of millions of non-white, non-Christian people into the West are crucial to this planned destruction of the West. Why the Liberal Elite -who are the Illuminati's agents and useful idiots of the World Revolutionary Movement- are part of a very wicked and very Evil Agenda to systematically replace Christian values with the Luciferian precepts of an ancient secret society that today is often called the Illuminati but which is simply the modern manifestation of the Ancient Cult of Evil.
Wholesale corruption, demoralization and mongrelisation of the Western World are integral parts of the the New Age One World Conspiracy, the Ancient Plan to Transform Society, often called the New World Order. So too is the the World Financial Meltdown -the Controlled Demolition of the Global Economy-designed to unleash the latent and emergent social crises across the world, especially in the Western World and especially in America; designed to exacerbate the economic, social and racial tensions put in place by the wicked and very Evil social engineers behind the Humanist and Liberal Agendas and the World Revolutionary Movement.
The World Financial Meltdown -the Controlled Demolition of the Global Economy- is designed to make dire and worsening situations far worse. It is designed to precipitate future events planned by the Dark Force seeking dictatorship in America and absolute World Tyranny. And, designed to coincide with the unfolding events brought about by the collapsing world economy is the Eugenic Population Reduction Agenda. And those who truly understand what is unfolding on Earth today know that the Eugenic Population Reduction Agenda is both a keystone of the Luciferians' Earth Religion and an intrinsic part of the Luciferian New World Order.
The planned destruction of the World Economy (and especially the American economy) is part of the financial coup d'etat by the banksters and their key agents in government and elsewhere. Part of a meticulously planned agenda to de-industrialise the West and to redistribute the wealth of the West to the East (especially to China). To weaken the West and build up the East, and especially China and Russia, in preparation for the long-planned Third World War in which the communist world is emboldened enough to attack the West.
In other words, organized Evil via the Invisible Money Power and the Central Banking Cartel has captured the world's governments and is in the process of bankrupting the Real Economy in readiness for its Hard Kill of Humanity. It is maneuvering events according to the dictates of the Ancient Plan to Transform Society manifest today as the World Revolutionary Movement. It is not only destroying the world economy and the Western World's industrial base but also planning to destroy vast swathes of humanity using numerous Soft and Hard Kill strategies.
Why does this power-carving clique (the Cult of Evil, the Illuminati, the Global Elite, the Anglo-American Establishment, the Financial Oligarchy, the International Criminal Elite, call it what you will but it is the same Dark Force, seek the destruction of Natural Moral Order on Earth and the mass murder of humanity? Why is it, and its lackeys and Useful Idiots, all guilty of High Crimes and High Treason against not only the nations they chose to live and call 'home' but also against Greater Humanity? Why are they are all traitors to the world and its people and seek both their destruction? It is because they are betraying everything to the 'Great Plan' of organized evil on Earth; to the "Ancient Hope" of the Dark Empire of the Secret Societies, which is the establishment of Lucifer's One World Government and Ahriman's One World Religion collectively called the New World Order.
And it will be a thoroughly 'efficient' and 'sustainable' New World Order in which the rump of humanity are easily controlled and 'managed' everywhere, in everything, and at all times. Hence, why the power-carving clique, which is verily organized evil on earth, is setting up the Electronic Global Control Matrix that will, in the coming New World Order, track, trace and control everyone, everywhere from the cradle to the grave.
However, mere physical control of humanity is not the main reason behind the planned mass cull and the Electronic Global Control Matrix. Rather, it is the absolute control of the human spiritual and mental faculties that is the true goal of organized Evil on Earth. For, to erect their New World Order and have it endure, the Forces of Darkness know that they must cut humanity off from all knowledge of God and separate them from their true spiritual inheritance. This is the true aim of Evil in its War with God brought to Earth and fought in the Arena of History. It is the true purpose of the Ancient Evil Agenda for World Government and the main focus of the myriad conspiracies and agendas spun off from this massive undertaking to usurp God's Rule on Earth; and, they hope, by this successful insurrection they will then attempt to usurp God's Rule of Creation itself or failing this, seek to establish a universe independent from God's Rule.
The Ancient Agenda to establish a Global Gulag, a Prison Planet, a World Panopticon, a New World Order, has at its dark heart the aim to separate man from his true spiritual inheritance, make him permanently blind to the spiritual hierarchies and oblivious to God. It is, of course, the Great Conspiracy against God described by countless people in various ways but none more powerful or prophetic than that given by the Apostle John in his Revelation.
With powerful, symbolic imagery invested with true prophetic wisdom the Revelation of St John the Divine describes the Evil Agenda of the two Dark Spirits, the two Evil Powers and Principalities, which seek to supplant God on the Throne of Creation. It tells of the Great Conspiracy against God brought to Earth and the fateful events of the Great Tribulation and End Time. It tells of the coming of the Pale Horse and its rider Death and of the great travails that come in their wake. Moreover, it tells of a terrible dark fate and the Angel of Death that come and visit the Earth and leave with a vast harvest of souls.
Halloween
Originally Halloween was a pagan festival, around the idea of linking the living with the dead, when contact became possible between the spirits and the physical world, and magical things were more likely to happen.
In early American history, Halloween was not widely practiced until the 20th century, when it was introduced by the Irish Catholic settlements. Gradually, Halloween became a secular observance, and many customs and practices developed. The carved pumpkin may have originated with the witches' use of a skull with a candle inside to light the way to coven meetings.
Since 1965 UNICEF, an agency of the United Nations, has attempted to incorporate into the Halloween observance the collection of money for the United Nations Children's Fund. This exploitation by the ungodly United Nations of this pagan holiday seems strangely appropriate.
Halloween is, for many, a "crossover" involvement in which innocent games can lead to serious entanglement with real witches, neo-pagans, New Agers, and other occultists. A common pastime is the use of a Ouija board to attempt to contact ghosts or spirits that are believed to be roaming about. This can lead to serious consequences including demon possession. Demons have a vested interest in Halloween because it supports the occult, and it also offers novel and unexpected opportunities to control and influence people.
Forms of the occult can include mediums, channelers, clairvoyants, psychics, spiritists, diviners, mystics, gurus, shamans, psychical researchers, Yogis, psychic and holistic healers, astral travel, astrology, mysticism, Ouija boards, Tarot cards, contact with the dead, UFOs, necromancy and thousands of other practices which almost defy cataloging.
Occultism includes Satanism, astrology, Kabbalah, Gnosticism, theosophy, witchcraft and many forms of serious magic. It includes activities seeking the acquisition of "hidden" things-which are expressly forbidden by God in the Bible.
Halloween practices can open the door to the occult and can introduce forces into people's lives that they are not equipped to combat. There is genuine power in the occult, but it is demonic power.
One Christian minister personally has told to Shattered Paradigm of one women who was delivered out of the occult who was involved in the most evil things imaginable each year on Halloween. For as long as she was involved in the occult, she would purposely get pregnant just so that she could have a new baby before Halloween each year so that she and her coven would have a human baby to sacrifice on Halloween each year.
All parents ought to be concerned. Halloween is desensitizing our children by its glorification of violence, death, mutilation and gore.
Consider for a moment the "Nightmare on Elm Street", "Halloween", and "Friday the 13th" film series. They are popular viewing fare at Halloween parties. Who or what inspires these "actors" (I use the term loosely)? Robert Englund who plays mass murderer Freddy Krueger in the "Nightmare on Elm Street" series says he draws his inspiration from the late Ted Bundy, who raped and murdered more than 28 women. Englund told Slaughterhouse magazine, "I just read an article on Ted Bundy, so a lot of my imagery is based on him."
At the least, exposure to sadism, sexual violence, satanism, torture, mutilation and bizarre murders causes our kids to become calloused to these behaviors. But, Harriet Kozkoff, a public TV producer told the press, "Entertainment is a powerful socializing agent in contemporary society. Slasher and horror movies use violence and sexual arousal to maximize profits and are an inevitable prescription for conditioning sexual sadism into our pre-teen, teenage and young adult film fans."
Dr. Thomas Radecki said, "Every year film violence and real-life violence continues to get worse. We must protest and stop this growing sadism in our homes, schools, and on our streets."
Obviously, the problem is wider than just on Halloween. But TV programming and video rentals of violent horror films is at its peak at Halloween.
Halloween is harmful because of its emphasis on violence and death, and invitation to occult.
Winter Solstice
December 21st each year, Satanist, perform human sacrifices as part of their Satanic rituals. This is known as Winter Solstice. Winter solstice actually last for 13 weeks.
The Illuminati worship both Lucifer, who they proclaim as the "Angel of Light" and the "Light-Bearer" and Satan. Satan is known as the "Great Destroyer" and Lord of Darkness. Each of these entities has their own Illuminati holiday. For Lucifer, it is the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, the day with the greatest light. For Satan it is December 21st, the shortest day with the longest night.
Satan, or Saturn, Set, Molech, Chronos etc., is worshipped through blood sacrifice. The Illuminati believe that through human sacrifice they gain eternal power over their slain victims, as well as the ability to command demons from Satan's army. The actual Satanic holy day goes from the 21st through the 23rd. Here is a list of some of the events that have occurred during the time frame. The ones in bold are those that I found the most interesting.

Christmas
On December 25th, the Sun rises 1 degree higher and is said to be reborn, or resurrected, hence the Christian superimposition of Jesus’ birthday. It gets confusing in that they placed Jesus’ death at Easter which is the crossing of the Sun from the Ram (Aries) to the Bull (Taurus), which again is Babylonian in its knowledge. It was the spring equinox in the old times as the sun enters Aries the ram because from this point there is more daylight hours than darkness in each day and thus darkness is conquered and the resurrection fulfilled. It is complex because of the fable we know as Christianity; the essence of the true tail is very understandable.
Consider the pagan roots of our popular symbols of Christmas:
Christmas tree - The sacred tree of the winter-god; Druids believed the spirit of the Earth gods resided in the tree. This has been superseded by the Babylonians to represent the male energy, a phallic symbol. So it means whatever you feel it means, just understand what it means to the sick creatures then you know.
Star - Pentalpha, the five-pointed star. The Pentalpha is a powerful symbol of Satan, second only to the hexagram. The star is the sacred symbol of Nimrod, and has nothing whatsoever to do with Christianity.
Candles represent the sun-gods' newly-born fire. Pagans the world over love and use candles in their rituals and ceremonies. Colors also represent specific powers relative to the colors of the Mandala, which represents the dimensions in color.
Mistletoe is the sacred plant of the Druids, symbolizing pagan blessings of fertility; thus, kissing under the mistletoe is the first step in the reproductive cycle! Witches also use the white berries in potions.
Wreaths are circular, and so they represent the female sexual organs. Wreaths are associated with fertility and the "circle of the serpent as it surrounds the earth in a pincer movement.
Santa Claus - Former Satanists have told me that "Santa" is an anagram for "Satan". In the New Age, the god, "Sanat Kamura", is most definitely an anagram for "Satan". The mythical attributes and powers ascribed to Santa are eerily close to those possessed by Jesus Christ.
Reindeer are horned animals representing the "horned-god" or the "stag-god" of pagan religion! Santa's traditional number of reindeer in his team is eight (8); in Satanic gematria, eight is the number of "new beginnings", or the cycle of reincarnation. The Illuminati views the number "eight" as a symbol of their New World Order. Its true meaning of course is the constant never ending flow of all things on a circular motion, there are no straight lines or sharp angles in the natural order of thing the Satanist’s move in strange angles, never confronting you face on, always from a strange angle.
Elves are imp-like creatures who are Santa's (Satan's) little helpers. They are also demons, the greys in physical form, and are certainly not alien, they live in the earth and are a genetic creation used as a slave race and are totally telepathic in nature hence the suit they ware.
Red is the traditional color of the season, Red is Satan's favorite color, so it is appropriate it should be one of the traditional colors for Christmas; it is also the color of human blood, of course the Illuminati bloodlines have more copper in their blood and are thus named ‘BLUE BLOODS’ which is why Satan's highest form of sacrifice is human mammalian blood - for this reason, Communism adopted red as it main color, and was created on May 1st!
December 25 is known as the "nativity" of the sun. This date is the birthday of Tammuz, the son, the reincarnation of the sun god. Traditionally, December 21 is known as Yule. The Roman Catholic Church moved the celebration of Yule to December 25.
December 25 is also known to the Romans as "Saturnalia", a time of deliberate debauchery. Drinking through repeated toasting - known as 'wassail' - was a key to the debauchery of this celebration. Fornication was symbolized by the mistletoe, and the entire event was finished with a Great Feast, the Christmas Dinner.
Even the name, "Christmas" is pagan! "Christi" meant "Christ", while "Mas" meant Mass. Since all pagan Masses are commemorating "death", the name, "Christmas" literally means the "death of Christ". A deeper meaning lies in the mention of "Christ" without specifying Jesus. Thus, Antichrist is in view here; the pagans celebrate "Christmas" as a celebration of their coming Antichrist, who will deal a death blow to the idea in Jesus Christ of Christianity and the message of love.
Easter
Easter is an annual celebration observed throughout the Christian world. However, there are absolutely no verses in the Bible that authorize or endorse the keeping of this tradition. Further – the Bible does not mention anything about Easter eggs, Easter baskets, Easter bunnies, or even Lent! The author includes convincing evidence to show that these very items were parts of the pagan rituals of the Mystery Religion of ancient Babylon.
Goddess Ostara (Ishtar, also spelled, "Eostre"), for whom "Easter" is named - March 21 is one of the Illuminati's Human Sacrifice Nights.
Easter is a shifting date using the common practice of Astrology; it is celebrated on the first Sunday after the first new moon after Ostara.
This date also has nothing to do with the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ! Rather, this day in the pagan tradition celebrates the return of Semiramis into her reincarnated form of the Spring Goddess. The pagans even have an equivalent to our Good Friday! It is "Easter Friday", and has historically been timed to be the third full moon from the start of the year. Since the marrying of pagan Easter to Jesus' resurrection, Good Friday is permanently fixed on the Friday prior to Easter.
Easter is steeped in the Babylonian Mysteries, the single most evil idolatrous system ever invented by Satan! Goddess Ostara (Ishtar, also spelled, "Eostre"), for whom "Easter" is named - March 21 is one of the Illuminati's Human Sacrifice Nights.
The Occult / Satanic calender is comprised of four periods of 13 weeks each. Occultists believe that numbers contain inherent power, and many base their lives on numerology. Numerology is also a key component of astrology – another system occultists follow closely. Thus the occult calendar is divided into 4 parts of 13 weeks each. Note that 13 x 4 = 52 weeks – our year!
In the occult system, the number 6 = man, the number 7 = divine perfection or god, and the number 13 = rebellion against authority and depravity. So, in the occult or satanic world, the number 13 represents the state of man’s having reached divine perfection, self-achieved perfection, and illumination.
Most people accept traditions as fact because they have been part of our culture for so long. This, however, does not mean these traditions are based on Biblical truth. The Easter tradition has been incorporated into Christian churches, but this does not make it Christian!
"No, Easter is not Christian. However, I personally don't think it is a sin for Christian believers to celebrate Christ's resurrection once a year on this day. Such believers are NOT celebrating Easter, they are simply celebrating the Lord's resurrection. Certainly, it would be a sin to celebrate Easter in it's originally intended sense; however, this is not how believers today recognize Easter.
If some pompous, self-righteous believer wants to condemn those who do celebrate Christ's resurrection on Easter, then please consider that all of our months and days are also named after pagan gods as well. Should we stop using the names of days and months because they all have heathen origins? The same is true of Christmas. I think "commonsense" is the key in our evaluation of celebrating the holidays.
I do think it is very foolish to mislead children with fables of an Easter Bunny or Santa Claus. These characters are clearly intended to hinder children from seeking the Lord Jesus Christ. I am not saying that believers should celebrate Easter or Christmas, I am simply saying that we shouldn't condemn those who do if it's done in a Christian manner. Christmas is a precious time for many people, a time of celebrating Jesus' birth. Although the Bible never leads us to celebrate Christ's birth or resurrection, I do not think it is wrong to do so. However, the Bible DOES command believers to regularly recognize Christ's crucified body and shed blood at the Lord's Supper. Our main focus as Christians should be winning lost souls to Jesus Christ and not celebrating holidays.
