Drawing of Eostre/Ostara (Wikipedia)
Did you know that Easter is supposed to be Passover according to the 'Catechism of the Catholic Church'? Was this originally observed by Christians on a day other than Sunday? Was Passover originally a resurrection holiday or a commemoration of Christ's death? In this sermon, Dr. Thiel goes over many amazing historical and biblical facts about Easter and Passover. He cites Jesus' words about worship. He also quotes the Apostle Paul who warned about combining demonic worship practices with Passover. He cites the Apostle John's words about not being faithful to what he taught as well as some of what John taught about antichrists. Dr. Thiel addresses "fact checkers" and others who assert that the Babylonian goddess Ishtar is not associated with Easter. He cites the 8th century monk known as the "venerable Bede" who taught that Easter came from Eostre, the pagan goddess of the dawn. Dr. Thiel also discusses Easter eggs, Easter rabbits, and their ties to paganism. This is a sermon to listen to if you are interested in worshiping God in spirit and in truth.
