03/30/18 ANOTHER ONE OF MY POSTS FROM 2013
(and last year)

What should be a child's first and foremost thought when they think about Resurrection Sunday? It should be that Jesus was raised from the dead.

Now, once that becomes the focus, there is no need for, or desire for Ishtar, rabbits and colored eggs.

Jesus should never share the meaning of this celebration with anyone or anything, much less with pagan and corrupt symbolism.

As long as we give children a pagan coated Christianity, they will suck the coating and leave the reality.

If we want our children to become weak Christians, we should water down the message of the cross and the empty tomb.

Maybe we would have more fellow followers of Christ today if the churches in the past had promoted the empty tomb and the hallowed Christ instead of the hollow chocolate bunny.
