Shhh...
Protestants don’t want to know they set their work and worship ( so do Jews, Muslims, secular humanists, atheists, etc) with Roman calendars named either after Julius Caesar or Pope Gregory..
Almost like the fact that Daniel predicted something out of the 4th Kingdom. (1. Babylon, 2. Medes/Persia, 3. Greece, 4! ROME)
Would think to change TIMES and laws..
If I didn’t study His Creation and calendar He placed in His sky, confirmed in His Word, I would call today Thor’s day like all the Roman slaves..
Praise God , I know today is His 4th work day, a day He made those signs in the heavens for signs and appointed times and days and years so we would could count and not rely on Babylon to tell us what day it is..
Imagine the shock if people saw Jews observed passover a day earlier (13th day) then they did last year because it would have conflicted with their pope appointed sabbath day..
The folks who observed a Monday Resurrection this year were right on the money..
And in 2014, they were off because ‘easter Sunday’ would have been a Wednesday with the Jews Passover on a Monday.
That is if one accepts the death, burial and resurrection third day gospel that Paul taught with Passover, unleavened bread and first fruits..
That is completely different than good Friday, holy satuns day and Easter Suns day..
But Catholics and Protestants share the same Roman gospel story that is according to the catholic catechism and not according to scripture..
What a punch in the gut it was for this protestant to have that revealed.. kind of like my faith was in Rome, not His Word..
Ouch!
“Protestants dont want to know they set their work and worship ( so do Jews, Muslims, secular humanists, atheists, etc) with Roman calendars named either after Julius Caesar or Pope Gregory..”
Play your silly games all you want. No protestant claims that every word ever spoken by a catholic or pope is wrong. That’s just a straw man.
The thread had an interesting question, why does the east celebrate it differently that the west?
A second question is,,, why do you think the date chosen matters?
