Pagan Tradition

Pagan Tradition
St. Valentine's Day is never " Not once " mentioned in the Bible [ The Old or

New Testament
]. Centuries before Christianity began, Pagan Romans celebrated February 15 and the evening of February 14 in honor of, Lupercus

Lupercus


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Roman mythology, Lupercus is a god sometimes identified with the Roman god Faunus, who is the Roman equivalent of the Greek god Pan. Lupercus is the god of shepherds. His festival, celebrated on the anniversary of the founding of his temple in February 15, was called the Lupercalia. His priests wore goatskins. Lupercus was associated with the Lupercal, the cave where " Romulus and Remus " [ the traditional founders of Rome ] were suckled by a she-wolf

The religious ceremonies of Lupercalia began with the sacrifice of two male

goats and a dog by " The Flamen Dialis ". The Flamen Dialis wore the

albogalerus (Apex) and was the high priest. They put the pagan sacrificial

blood on their foreheads. Smearing of blood on forehead refers to the human sacrifice " originally practiced " at this pagan festival.

The Flamen Dialis would cut the skins off of their sacrifice, this was called "

Februa
", and would dressed themselves in the skins of the sacrificed goats

,[and imitation of Lupercus ] and run round the walls within the city, with the

thongs in their hands, striking the people who was near them [ for purification]. Teenage girls and young women would line up to receive lashes from these thongs whips. To ensure fertility, and prevent sterility and to ease the process of the childbirth pains.

"Lupercalia " custom of exchanging valentines gifts, was for good health and

fertility was in honor of Lupercus. This Pagan celebrations also included, the

worship of the pagan goddess of fertility named " Venus ". Venus in Roman

mythology was the goddess of fertility and sexual immortality she had a son

called, cupido " Cupid ".

Cupid was given power, by the Pagan gods, to cause, Love, to begin. { De

amore } Cupid is the god of erotic love and sex and is equated with the Greek

pagan god Eros. The ancient Greeks believed Eros to have been responsible for impregnating goddesses and mortals.

The pagan image used today, of that little fat cherub bastard,with a bow and

arrow, mostly associated with Valentine's Day, is that, very same,pagan

image, of Cupido / Eros. This Pagan Festival was alway's linked to " The Pagan

Practice of Fornication
".

The Pagan Custom of St. Valentine's Day [ the buying gifts,giving cards and

chocolate candy
] is no big deal, and thought as "Harmless" to people of all

Faith.

But, Here what The Most High Father YHVH said about Following " The Pagan

Nations Customs
".

Deuteronomy 12:30

30 : Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that

they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.

Changing the name of a Pagan Ritual [ does not ] change the fact that it's still

a Pagan Ritual.When you Search the Biblical scriptures diligently, from Old

Testament to New, and you will find no mention of observing an annual period of 40 days of fasting and abstinence preceding the festival of the Passover, so it was not recognized by Yahshua, the apostles, or the early Christian Church,"lent" is simply just the "weeping for Tammuz".

Ezekiel 8 (King James Version)

Ezekiel 8:13-16 says "He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do. Then he brought me to the door of The Most High house which was toward the north; and behold there sat women weeping for Tammuz. Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these. And he brought me into the inner court of The Most High house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of The Most High, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of The Most High, and their faces toward the east; and they worshiped the sun toward the east.

According to Encyclopedia Britannica:


"Tammuz - A god of ancient Babylonia."

Alexander Hislop (Born at Duns, Berwickshire, 1807; died Arbroath, 13 March 1865) was a Free Church of Scotland minister States "The forty days' abstinence of Lent was directly borrowed from the worshippers of the Babylonian goddess. Such a Lent of forty days, "in the spring of the year," is still observed by the Yezidis or Pagan Devil-worshippers of Koordistan, who have inherited it from their early masters, the Babylonians".

Cassianus, the monk of Marseilles or John Cassian (ca. 360 - 435) (Latin:

Jo(h)annes Eremita Cassianus, Joannus Cassianus, or Joannes Massiliensis), John the Ascetic, or John Cassian the Roman, is a Christian theologian celebrated in both the Western and Eastern Churches for his mystical writings States "that the observance of forty days had no existence, so long as the perfection of that primitive Church remained inviolate".

Lent has always been a movable observance holiday, connected to and preceding the festival of Easter. Easter is celebrated on a day specified only by the Roman Catholic Church, and not the Bible, and is fixed based on the sun and the Spring or Vernal equinox.

From


Review it is believed that buns marked

with a cross were eaten by Saxons in honour of the goddess Eostre (the cross is thought to have symbolised the four quarters of the moon); 'Eostre' is

probably the origin of the name 'Easter'. Others claim that the Greeks marked cakes with a cross, much earlier. Cakes were certainly baked in honor of deities since very ancient times,"

The Hebrev word for "cakes" as Jeremiah originally wrote it is "kavvan," and

really means "BUNS." It is used nowhere else in the Bible, except Jeremiah

44:19, where again, the same idolatrous worship to the pagan queen of the heaven is mentioned. Every other place in the Bible where the English word "cakes' is used, a different Hebrev word was used in the original.

Jeremiah 44 :19

King James Bible


And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink

offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink

offerings unto her, without our men?

Why would anyone, who believe themselves to be a Christians, dye eggs at Easter?

Do Bunnies lay color eggs ? On the day commemorating Christ's resurrection,

Christians and Catholic roll decorated eggs and hide it,on the lawn,and pretend the Easter rabbit hid them?. This pagan ritual is even practiced at some churches.The BIBLE does not ordained, or commands, to follow heathen custom. Then WHY SHOULD YOU DO IT ? Why follow heathenism and try to conceive yourself you are a Christian ? YHVH calls such things ABOMINATION!

Painted pagan eggs, Easter baskets, yellow marshmallow chickens,new clothes, is this what The Messiah Death,means to you.

Only The Most High Father YHVH, knows when your good or bad,to tell yours and other kids,Santa Claus knows their actions,so they better be good,or they're not getting any gifts under a tree, is pure madness.

To say that The Messiah was born on December 25th is a lie. To "Christianize"

December 25th as the birthday of The Messiah is utter nonsense.

Where in the bible does it showed, The Messiah celebrated his birthday in December, at anytime.

The bible records the shepherds tending their sheep in the fields on that night

. That is very unlikely to have happened during a cold Judean winter on December the 25th.

Does the bible ever once mentions a day to honor the Messiah Birthday.

Did The Messiah followers in the new testament ever once celebrated his birthday ? Did they

Christ mas is pure and simple a " Pagan custom Holiday " observed by Pagan,

heathens. Egyptian worship Osiris,The Greek it was Apollo and Bacchus, Chaldean was Adonis, Persian it was Mithra, all celebrated during the same date 25 of December.

In ancient Babylon, the 25th of December was known as the day of the birth of the incarnate sun. The Romans called their winter holiday Saturnalia, honoring Saturn. The Winter Solstice was celebrated before The Hebrev Messiah walked the earth.

How can anybody thinks by taking a set date to honor a Pagan deity and

"Christianize" that same date it makes it alright in Father YHVH or The Messiah Eyes. That one of the most blaspheme thing to do according to the bible.

Deut 12:30

"take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are

destroyed from before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, `How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise.'

Deut 12 : 31

"You shall not worship YHVH your Father in that way; for every abomination to YHVH which He hates they have done to their gods; for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods. 32 "Whatever I command you, be careful to observe it; you shall not add to it nor take away from it.
