EASTER????

Easter made me think of my grandfather and the story of the Easter egg. Every Easter in church he tells us the story of the egg and how Easter eggs symbolized the empty tomb of Jesus, from which Christians believe Jesus resurrected. So I am trying to figure out how did it become about hats, dresses, suit & ties, egg hunt & the bunny?

Christians started staining of Easter eggs with the color red "in memory of the blood of Christ, shed as at that time of his crucifixion so what puzzles me is everything else? Now the egg begin as an ancient spring rituals in Africa and Egypt where eggs were associated with death and rebirth, as well as with kingship.

So man decided to turn the resurrection of Jesus, African & Egypt rituals into a Christian festival of Pascha (Easter) for profit. Easter was just a Christian's moveable feasts. Man attached Jesus to make MONEY. 

Since on my journey to become more spiritual I have seen how I've been blinded by the ways of this world. We grow up with what we were taught by our family but now that I am reading the Bible on my own/ for myself. Man has made his own perception of who God & Jesus is. According to the Bible, God is spirit, Love, Alpha and the Omega, the King of ages, immortal, Father, God is God. 

People don' t stay blinded by the World, open your eyes. 

1 John 2:15-1715 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life is not from the Father but is from the world. 17 And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.


Romans 12:22 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect
