Not that I want to get into schematics or literal thought but as it will not escape my mind at this moment writing to the audience but I rather say Happy Resurrection day than easter. If you know the origins of Easter or Ishtar and the observance of this pagan named day which I cannot consider Holy because Only the LORD is Holy you would probably understand what I mean. As well I am not trying to be over prejudiced either (laughing) because many automatically observe this special day with Christ's resurrection more than a fertility observance egg day. Most of these pagan observances are lost , well some may still observe ishtar day or semiramses day etc...but why go into it even further (laughing). It is the day Christian's celebrate both the Passover and the Resurrection simultaneously and this truth is the actual observance to yearly remember what GOD the Son did for mankind and how JESUS justified us when HE arose form the dead. Many still choose not to believe in this reality but it is amazing that it is 100% true and continues to prove that many are without excuse and when they face JESUS will HE be their Judge or Savior?
So as I pray everyone has an awesome Resurrection day I will also leave a famous Charles Wesley Hymn so if you forgot to sing on this day that you will always remember daily what Christ has done for you and I.
CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAY
Words: Charles Wesley, 1739
Tune: Easter Hymn, Lyra Davidica, 1708
