Pesach is to be celebrated throughout all the generations of the people of Israel wherever they lived. In Joshua chapter 5, the Israelites celebrate Pesach in Gilgal after taking flint knives and circumcising all the men who had come out of the wilderness. In 2 Kings chapter 23, King Josiah destroys all the high places and idols in Israel, and the nation celebrates Pesach in Jerusalem for the first time since the days of the Judges. In Ezra chapter 6, when the Israelites return from captivity in Babylon, everyone who renounced the pagan practices of the nations celebrated the Pesach.
What does it profit a man?
Thoughts on Yom Rishon, the first day of the week: What does it profit a man to know all 619 Torah commandments, but neglect the widow and the fatherless? What does it profit a man to know all the pagan roots of the holidays, but neglect the hearts and souls of the those who are lost and dying? What does it profit a man to know all the shadows
Cultural Overload and Chickens
With race riots being incited by government leaders, the unconstitutional executive orders by a senseless president, the kidnapping of children by Child Protective Services in order to vaccinate already unhealthy children, the Muslim takeover of the US through the ignorance of a generation’s zeal for cultural tolerance, school murders because of mental illness caused by pharmaceutical drugs and unchecked aggression, the acceptance of marriage between two people of the same sex who cannot biologically procreate, the supposed war on the women that allows them to kill babies in the womb, the push toward losing our inalienable rights as American citizens with freedom of religion, the right to bear arms, the right to assembly, the protection from search and seizure, I’m watching 2 Timothy chapter coming to pass right before my eyes.
Post-Halloween Reflections
I guess if it’s okay for my Christian friends to post their dark and evil Halloween pictures on Facebook and other places, it must be okay for me to wonder why they took part in the holiday at all. It just doesn’t compute in ‘my renewed mind’ how one can say they believe in the resurrection of the dead because Jesus rose from the dead and then dress like dead people, zombies, skeletons.
