the custom of the Jews, a people who have soiled their hands in a most terrible
                       outrage, and have thus polluted their souls, and are now deservedly blind. Since we
                       have cast aside their way of calculating the date of the festival, we can ensure that
                       future generations can celebrate this observance at the more accurate time which we
                       have kept from the first day of the passion until the present time...."
                       [Emperor Constantine I - Following the Council of Nicaea]

                     With these words, the Roman Catholic Church rejected the Biblical observance of
               Passover, the date on which Christ was crucified, and adopted the pagan observance of
               Easter. Thus the holy was replaced by the profane, and the body of Christ was induced to
               eat foods sacrificed to idols.


                       Revelation 2:20-21
                       “I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a
                       prophetess, and she teaches and leads My bond-servants astray so that
                       they commit acts of immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.

                     Remember, the words of Revelation are spiritual words. Even though there is a very
               real sense in which the people of God eat physical foods in honor of false deities through
               imbibing Christmas and Easter ham, Easter eggs, hot crossed buns, and various associated
               treats, it is the spiritual substance of these words that is most important. Eating things
               sacrificed to idols is a spiritual reference to the church feeding on doctrines of demons.


                       Hebrews 13:9-10
                       Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the
                       heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have
                       been occupied with them.

                     Observe in these words how the phrases “various and strange doctrines” and “foods
               which have not profited” are used in parallel to one another. The church feeds itself on
               doctrines. The Jezebel spirit teaches and leads the bond-servants of Christ astray so that
               they eat things devoted to idols. The church observes dates and practices that formerly were
               associated with the worship of Baal and Asherah.
                     The  mystery  religions  teach  that  Semiramis  was  immaculately  conceived,  being
               lowered from the heavens to the earth in a giant egg. This egg came to rest in the waters of
               the Euphrates river. Eggs are symbols of fertility, and as Semiramis was a fertility goddess
               the symbol of the egg became thoroughly associated with her worship. Those who knew
               Semiramis under the name of Ishtar spoke of Ishtar’s egg, from which we get our current
               Easter egg.
