Exodus 12:1-11
1 And Yahweh (the Lord) spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, 2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. 3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house: 4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb. 5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats: 6 And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. 7 And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. 8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. 9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof. 10 And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; and that which remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire. 11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh’s (the Lord)'s passover.

Acts 12:1–4
12 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) 4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
Matthew 15:1-6
1 Then came to Yahshua (Jesus) scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, 2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. 3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of Elohim (God) by your tradition? 4 For Elohim (God) commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. 5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; 6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of Elohim (God) of none effect by your tradition.
Mark 7:3-13
3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders. 4 And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not.

Exo. 13:3-4
“And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. This day came ye out in the month Abib.”
Exodus 12:12-20, 21-27, 43-48
12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Yahweh (the Lord). 13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. 14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to Yahweh (the Lord) throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.
15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
16 And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you. 17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever. 18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even. 19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. 20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.
21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. 22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. 23 For Yahweh (the Lord) will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, Yahweh (the Lord) will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. 24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever. 25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which Yahweh (the Lord) will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service. 26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? 27 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of Yahweh’s (the Lord’s)s passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. …
43 And Yahweh (the Lord) said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof: 44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof. 45 A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof. 46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof. 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to Yahweh (the Lord), let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.”
Exo. 34:26
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning. 26 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of Yahweh (the Lord) thy Elohim (God). Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
Lev. 23:4-8
4 These are the feasts of Yahweh (the Lord), even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.

10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, qthen ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
Numbers 9:2–5, 9-15
2 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season. 3 In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it. 4 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover. 5 And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that Yahweh (the Lord) commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel. …
9 And Yahweh (the Lord) spake unto Moses, saying, 10 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto Yahweh (the Lord). 11 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. 12 They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it. 13 But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of Yahweh (the Lord) in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin. 14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto Yahweh (the Lord); according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land. 15 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.

2 Kings 23:21–23
21 And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto Yahweh (the Lord) your Elohim (God), as it is written in the book of this covenant. 22 Surely there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah; 23 But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to Yahweh (the Lord) in Jerusalem.

Matthew 26:26-29
26 And as they were eating, Yahshua (Jesus) took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
John 6: 3-4, 48,
3 And Yahshua (Jesus) went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
48 I am that bread of life. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

1 Corinthians 11:20
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper. 21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. 23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. 27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
Hebrews 11:28
28 Through faith he (Moses) kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
Revelations. 3:20.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Easter nor the Holy Eucharist is not in the Bible.
Easter is not fixed on Sunday, but move according to the lunar calendar. Lunar equals the moon equals the law.

Below are some of the points Dr. Penny Warren addressed during this session.
Gentiles throughout time have always celebrated Spring, a time of earth’s renewal, rebirth. They were glad to leave winter’s cold, death and burial state to emerge into the warmth and light of the sunny, spring and summer seasons.
Some pagan cultures practiced fertility rites to their gods, symbolized by rabbits that reproduce quickly. Or Eggs representing new life.
What most people, including Christian ministers and scholars, do not understand is that the physical changes in seasons from fall/winter to spring/summer, are ordered by the Creator who is a divine, universal pattern, and represent changes in states and conditions of the mind.
The purpose of the Messiah’s DBR mission was to transform our minds from a death state inherited from Adam’s transgression unto a resurrected state of life and peace.
Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God
Isaiah 40:31
But they who wait for Yahweh (the Lord) shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope
2 Corinthians 4:18
For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
Romans 2:14
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
Psa. 19:1-9
19 The heavens declare the glory of Elohim (God); and the firmament sheweth his handywork. 2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. 3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. 4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, 5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. 6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. 7 The law of Yahweh (the Lord) is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of Yahweh (the Lord) is sure, making wise the simple. 8 The statutes of Yahweh (the Lord) are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of Yahweh (the Lord) is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9 The fear of Yahweh (the Lord) is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of Yahweh (the Lord) are true and righteous altogether.
“Easter is one of Christianity’s highest and holiest days, the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. But the origins of today’s very Christian holiday are firmly rooted in the ancient traditions of pagan religions from many parts of the world. With its blend of solemn religious symbolism and the fun of Easter eggs and bunny rabbits, Easter as we know it is a patchwork of beliefs and practices related to the themes of springtime, rebirth, and renewal.”
Pagan Easter: Where Did the Tradition Originate?
9:10 min vid - Easter's Hidden Origins Unveiling the Truth
Tracing Easter’s pagan roots, transformation in Christianity resurrection of the Messiah, and
T 1:25 Eostra, a Germanic Goddess of dawn, spring & fertility
T 1:55 Mesopotamia Goddess Ishtar ruled over love & renewal, descends in an egg
T 2:05 Roman festival of Hilaria tied to the Goddess Cybele
These weren’t random, but taped into a universal human urge to celebrate rebirth.
T 2:25 Christianity didn’t invent Easter, it painted over it.
T 2:20 how did this pagan party become a Christian holiday? As Christianity spread across Europe and bumping into these deep rooted customs, instead of wiping them out them blended them in.
T 2:50 In 325 AD at Council of Nicea led by Constantine. When to celebrate the Messiah’s resurrection? Friday or Sunday
T 4:00 What did God actually command? Worship not left to chance. Lev. 23 gave Moses 7 feasts and a divine calendar of worship.
1 Passover, tied to Lunar calendar
2 Unleaven Bread
3 First Fruits
4 Pentecost, 50 days letter
5 Trumpets
6 Atonement
7 Tabernacle
T 6:25 Easter today is a blend of traditions.
T 7:01 1 Cor. 15:17
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
“Pope Francis wants all churches to be united like the Tower of Babel or as Constantine tried to unite the pagan empire under Christianity.” https://plim2.org/rev-17th-chapter_3-25-21/rev-17th-chapter

And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables. 5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands? 6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. 7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For laying aside the commandment of Elohim (God) , ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. 9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of Elohim (God), that ye may keep your own tradition. 10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death: 11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free. 12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother; 13 Making the word of Elohim (God) of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Colossians 2:8
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after the Messiah (Christ).
2 Thessalonians 3:6
6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our savior Yahshua the Messiah (Lord Jesus Christ), that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
1 Peter 1:18
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
Galatians 1:14. 2:15.
14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
2 Thess. 2:15
15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
2 Timothy 3:16 Holy Name Bible
16 All scripture that is given by inspiration of Elohim (God), and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Exo. 13:3-4
“And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. This day came ye out in the month Abib.”
Exodus 12:12-20, 21-27, 43-48
12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Yahweh (the Lord). 13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. 14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to Yahweh (the Lord) throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.
15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
16 And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you. 17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever. 18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even. 19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land. 20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened bread.
21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. 22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. 23 For Yahweh (the Lord) will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, Yahweh (the Lord) will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. 24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever. 25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which Yahweh (the Lord) will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service. 26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? 27 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of Yahweh’s (the Lord’s)s passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. …
43 And Yahweh (the Lord) said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof: 44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof. 45 A foreigner and an hired servant shall not eat thereof. 46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof. 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to Yahweh (the Lord), let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.”
Exo. 34:26
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning. 26 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of Yahweh (the Lord) thy Elohim (God). Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is Yahweh’s (the Lord)'s passover. 6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto Yahweh (the Lord): seven days ye must eat unleavened bread. 7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. 8 But ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yahweh (the Lord) seven days: in the seventh day is an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. …

9 And Yahweh (the Lord) spake unto Moses, saying, 10 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto Yahweh (the Lord). 11 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. 12 They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it. 13 But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering of Yahweh (the Lord) in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin. 14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto Yahweh (the Lord); according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land. 15 And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning.

1 Corinthians 11:20
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper. 21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. 23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. 27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
Hebrews 11:28
28 Through faith he (Moses) kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Easter nor the Holy Eucharist is not in the Bible.
Easter is not fixed on Sunday, but move according to the lunar calendar. Lunar equals the moon equals the law.

Below are some of the points Dr. Penny Warren addressed during this session.
Gentiles throughout time have always celebrated Spring, a time of earth’s renewal, rebirth. They were glad to leave winter’s cold, death and burial state to emerge into the warmth and light of the sunny, spring and summer seasons.
Some pagan cultures practiced fertility rites to their gods, symbolized by rabbits that reproduce quickly. Or Eggs representing new life.
What most people, including Christian ministers and scholars, do not understand is that the physical changes in seasons from fall/winter to spring/summer, are ordered by the Creator who is a divine, universal pattern, and represent changes in states and conditions of the mind.
The purpose of the Messiah’s DBR mission was to transform our minds from a death state inherited from Adam’s transgression unto a resurrected state of life and peace.
Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God
Isaiah 40:31
But they who wait for Yahweh (the Lord) shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope
2 Corinthians 4:18
For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
Romans 2:14
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
Psa. 19:1-9
19 The heavens declare the glory of Elohim (God); and the firmament sheweth his handywork. 2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. 3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. 4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, 5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. 6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. 7 The law of Yahweh (the Lord) is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of Yahweh (the Lord) is sure, making wise the simple. 8 The statutes of Yahweh (the Lord) are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of Yahweh (the Lord) is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9 The fear of Yahweh (the Lord) is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of Yahweh (the Lord) are true and righteous altogether.
“Easter is one of Christianity’s highest and holiest days, the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. But the origins of today’s very Christian holiday are firmly rooted in the ancient traditions of pagan religions from many parts of the world. With its blend of solemn religious symbolism and the fun of Easter eggs and bunny rabbits, Easter as we know it is a patchwork of beliefs and practices related to the themes of springtime, rebirth, and renewal.”
Pagan Easter: Where Did the Tradition Originate?
9:10 min vid - Easter's Hidden Origins Unveiling the Truth
Tracing Easter’s pagan roots, transformation in Christianity resurrection of the Messiah, and
T 1:25 Eostra, a Germanic Goddess of dawn, spring & fertility
T 1:55 Mesopotamia Goddess Ishtar ruled over love & renewal, descends in an egg
T 2:05 Roman festival of Hilaria tied to the Goddess Cybele
These weren’t random, but taped into a universal human urge to celebrate rebirth.
T 2:25 Christianity didn’t invent Easter, it painted over it.
T 2:20 how did this pagan party become a Christian holiday? As Christianity spread across Europe and bumping into these deep rooted customs, instead of wiping them out them blended them in.
T 2:50 In 325 AD at Council of Nicea led by Constantine. When to celebrate the Messiah’s resurrection? Friday or Sunday
T 4:00 What did God actually command? Worship not left to chance. Lev. 23 gave Moses 7 feasts and a divine calendar of worship.
1 Passover, tied to Lunar calendar
2 Unleaven Bread
3 First Fruits
4 Pentecost, 50 days letter
5 Trumpets
6 Atonement
7 Tabernacle
T 6:25 Easter today is a blend of traditions.
T 7:01 1 Cor. 15:17
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
“Pope Francis wants all churches to be united like the Tower of Babel or as Constantine tried to unite the pagan empire under Christianity.” https://plim2.org/rev-17th-chapter_3-25-21/rev-17th-chapter
