Hi everyone,

I wanted to wish my brothers and sisters in Christ on this forum a Happy Easter, and hope that everyone else had a nice day off on Friday and are enjoying the long weekend.

Two days ago, Christians around the world remembered the death of Jesus Christ- remembering the suffering He went through... insults, beatings, torture, and finally crucifixion. He suffered these things for us.

Today, we remember something else that He did for us... rising from the dead. Some 2 milennia ago, [give or take 2 decades ], His grief stricken mother went to the tomb. She ran into two angels, but not Him. Jesus rose.

No one can conquer death. No one that is, except God. He defeated it utterly, and destroyed Satan's pathetic plans.

Many people unfortunately choose to ignore or deny His suffering and conquering of death, because their religions deny this or because they do not believe in God. Others claim they believe in Him, but their words and actions say something else.

The massacres of Muslims in CAR, and fighting in eastern Ukraine are being perpetrated for the most part by people who claim they are Christians. In Eastern Ukraine, the EU-backed government and Moscow-backed separatists had talk of "an Easter truce", but with fresh shootings today in Slaviansk, it is evident that not even Christ's resurrection is enough to convince some people to stop killing each other.
Meantime, there are hundreds of Palestinian Christians who would have liked nothing more than to be in Jerusalem today to celebrate God's triumph over the forces of darkness, yet the Israeli Army has decided to not grant them permits. While the city is open to pilgrims from most countries of the world, many of our Palestinian brothers and sisters in Christ have for the most part been blocked out.

The bad news is that there is suffering and injustice in our world. The good news is that Christ is risen, and Christ is coming again. Those of us who are His followers are called to be examples of His love, and to work for justice and peace and spread the Gospel. We know that in the end, evil will not triumph.

Thank You God for coming down among us, and for teaching us. Thank You for suffering for us on the cross, so that we may have salvation by believing in You. Thank You for rising from the dead.

Please be in us as we walk through life, and guide us to do Your will.

I haven't been to an Easter sunrise service at any time in my life, and I also don't worship Baal. I also am going to stop debating with you, since discussing with you is fruitless and brings benefit to no one.

Easter Sunday ~Easter is the feast in which the Christians commemorate the so-called resurrection of the Prophet / Messiah Isa , Yashu'a , Jesus Christ , son of Maryam ( Pbuh ) , the third day after his allege death by cruifixion  To the Christian the world over , it is considered as the Greatest Feast  of the year , celebrated with joy . Sine the beginning , this day has been celebrated as the most important day of the whole year .

In addition to this weekly celebration of the Prophet / Messiah Isa , Yashu'a , Jesus Christ , son of Maryam ( Pbuh )so-called  resurrection  , the church has observed each year from centuries ago a special fast at the time of the Jewish Passover to commemorate the anniversary of the greatest events in the Christian world . According to the Christians , there is an intimate link between the so-called  resurrection  of the Prophet / Messiah Isa , Yashu'a , Jesus Christ , son of Maryam ( Pbuh ) and the sacrament of baptism , the Church thus , united the two resurrection in a common ritual .
 
It celebrates the ''New Life '' , not only the Prophet / Messiah Isa , Yashu'a , Jesus Christ , son of Maryam ( Pbuh whom they thought was crucified and rose in three days as the dead , but also the mystical body , his ( believed yo be ) faithful followers . This is the reason for the prayer . To the liturgy in Paschal week constantly reflects those two thoughts ; the alleged resurrection of the Prophet / Messiah Isa , Yashu'a , Jesus Christ , son of Maryam ( Pbuh ) and the baptism of the faithful .
 
Easter was recorded in Medieval documents as the beginning of a new year , especially in France where the custom prevailed until 1963 . It was a custom with the Romans that on the Feast Day one person was released from prison . This practice was followed by Emperors , Kings Pope all through Medieval .
 
In the Greek Church the service in honour of '' Christ '' so-called  resurrection  began at midnight . The priest and his congregation , with lighted candles in their hands , exit the church by a side door after the vigil of Easter . The process walk around to the main door , which has been closed ( representing what is believed to be the close sepulchre of the Messiah .
 
The Priest then slowly makes the sign of the cross with the crucifix . The Book of Job . 2 ; 1-2 , Click here: Job 2 ; 1-2 :: Arabic/English Online Bible  He hold his right hand and at once the doors swing open , at which tim everyone present says '' Christ Is Risen '' After the ritual the bells star ringing and the procession moves to the illuminated church where all who are present receive communion .
 
Easter Sunrise Service Or The Worship Of The God BAAL  . Million of people greet Easter Sunrise Service of worahip - the first of these is at the Summit of Cadillac Mountain on Mt . Dessert Island , Maine , where the sun first touches the United States , and later in hundrdds of similar services as the dawn moves westward across the land .

In recent years , mountain ranges and craters , historic sites , public parks , college campuses , ancient landmarks , village squares and city plazas have become centers for these observations .
 
The entire state of Maine is the sunrise country of America . The 1st ceremony in the mainland of Americais held at Yosemite National Park in California , this is because of the time required for the Sun to rise above the 500 ft . Half Moon Dome  so that it can shine on Mirror Lake ,  In 1893 , Katherine Lee Bates , a New England school teacher after viewing the Sunrise service from Pikes Peak , Colorado wrote the hymn '' America The Beautiful '' , which has become know the world over .
 
Oh beautiful for spacious skies , for amber waves of grain , For purple mointain majesties , Above the fruited plain !  americal ! america ! god shed his grace on thee! and crown thy good with brotherhood . from sea to shining sea .
 
It is believed according to american history ( his-story ) , that a group of Spaniards exploring north america from Key West to Southern California , were the first to hold as Easter Sunrise Service on Easter Sunday in the year 1609 .
 
However , it is of vital importance that you realize that Easter Sunrise Service along with other customs and traditions of this so-called Holy Day , are Abominations of pagan origin and have absolutely no basis in the By-Bill of the Christians .  You think that Easter Sunrise Service  are beautiful ??? Well , Listen carefully !!!
