Comments on: Should Christians Celebrate Passover Or Easter? http://shofarhorn.com/archives/should-christians-celebrate-passover-or-easter Blowing The Shofar Horn And Letting The Whole World Know That The Great Mysteries Of The Last Days Are About To Be Fulfilled Sun, 18 Dec 2011 13:09:15 +0000 hourly 1 By: John Brown http://shofarhorn.com/archives/should-christians-celebrate-passover-or-easter/comment-page-1#comment-222 John Brown Mon, 28 Feb 2011 03:20:32 +0000 http://shofarhorn.com/?p=116#comment-222 Thank you for your article. For the past decade or so I have felt lead to celebrate the Passover and Easter while not correlating them. Eating the sader and making sure that all that was eaten was Kosher. I feel even more inclined to celebrate only Passover and ignor Easter. I think that within the true Christian realm this would be a good thing however Easter is one of two times a year that the not so frequent Christian come to celebrate the Lord and we have yet another chance to help them to see the saving Grace of our Lord Jesus. That said, I'm afraid to view the article about Christmas ... but I will! We all know that Easter isn't about chocolate bunnies and eggs and Christmas isn't about Santa Claus and trees. I know that these come from pagan pratices and that the early church used them to provide a way to celebrate Christ for the newly converted Christians that wanted to celebrate those "feast" days. Just like we do in this country with the many holidays just to have something to celebrate. I plan to visit this site often and tell my friends also. Thank you for your article.

I SEE THAT YOU SAY JESUS DIED ON THE DAY BEFORE PASSOVER BUT I SEE WHERE HE SAID HE WAS KEEPING THE PASSOVER ON THE LAST NIGHT OF HIS HUMAN LIFE. I WENT BACK TO EXODUS AND OTHER OLDER TEXTS. I SEE THAT PASSOVER IS ALWAYS ON THE EVENING OF THE 14TH ABIB/NISSAN. NUMBERS 9:1-5 SAYS THAT PASSOVER IS TO BE KEPT ON THE 14TH WITH ALL RITES AND CEREMONIES THEREOF. THIS SAYS THAT NO PART OF IT CAN BE ON ANY DAY OTHER THAT THE 14TH. I AM AWARE THAT THE GOSPELS SAY THAT THE LEADERS COULD NOT GO TO SEE PILATE BECAUSE IT WAS THE PREPARATION DAY FOR THE PASSOVER. BUT WE MUST REALIZE THAT THERE ARE THREE PASSOVER NAMED IN SCRIPTURE. THE FIRST IS THE LORD'S PASSOVER. IT WAS INITIATED IN EGYPT AND CELEBRATED LEGALLY UNTIL THE LAST TIME MESSIAH ATE IT AND CHANGED THE RITUALS. THE SECOND IS "OUR PASSOVER", MESSIAH. THE THIRD IS "THE PASSOVER OF THE JEWS". THIS REFERS TO THOSE JEWS WHO WERE INSISTING THAT PILATE MURDER MESSIAH, THE SAME ONES MESSIAH TOLD "YOU DO ERR NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES OR THE POWER OF GOD". THESE INSTIGATORS OF FOUL MURDER WERE ATTEMPTING TO CELEBRATE PASSOVER ON ABIB 15, ONE DAY LATE. MESSIAH KEPT IT PROPERLY AND AT THE CORRECT TIME OR WE HAVE NO MESSIAH. IF HE HAD THAT CELEBRATION EARLY HE WOULD HAVE SINNED SINCE HE MADE NO CHANGE AS TO TIME OR EVENTS UNTIL AFTER HE HAD FINISHED SUPPER. I DO THANK YOU FOR THE ARTICLE.

I AM AWARE THAT THE GOSPELS SAY THAT THE LEADERS COULD NOT GO TO SEE PILATE BECAUSE IT WAS THE PREPARATION DAY FOR THE PASSOVER. BUT WE MUST REALIZE THAT THERE ARE THREE PASSOVER NAMED IN SCRIPTURE.

THE FIRST IS THE LORD’S PASSOVER. IT WAS INITIATED IN EGYPT AND CELEBRATED LEGALLY UNTIL THE LAST TIME MESSIAH ATE IT AND CHANGED THE RITUALS.

THE SECOND IS “OUR PASSOVER”, MESSIAH.

THE THIRD IS “THE PASSOVER OF THE JEWS”. THIS REFERS TO THOSE JEWS WHO WERE INSISTING THAT PILATE MURDER MESSIAH, THE SAME ONES MESSIAH TOLD “YOU DO ERR NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES OR THE POWER OF GOD”.

THESE INSTIGATORS OF FOUL MURDER WERE ATTEMPTING TO CELEBRATE PASSOVER ON ABIB 15, ONE DAY LATE.

MESSIAH KEPT IT PROPERLY AND AT THE CORRECT TIME OR WE HAVE NO MESSIAH.

IF HE HAD THAT CELEBRATION EARLY HE WOULD HAVE SINNED SINCE HE MADE NO CHANGE AS TO TIME OR EVENTS UNTIL AFTER HE HAD FINISHED SUPPER.

I DO THANK YOU FOR THE ARTICLE.
