Which Is The Approved Feast, Passover Or Easter?

When the wings of the mighty eagle are broken, it will become an opportunity for the sparrow to dominate the air. Again, when the cat is away, the mice can play. The danger of creating a monster is that one-day it will turn against its master.

The churchianity created many monsters through their mix-ups of truths with falsehoods and those fabrications endangers the faithful believers who found themselves as churchmen and women. No matter how tears and waters resembles, they are not the same and does not taste alike. The Yahosheans of today may be misunderstood just like how Yahoshea Meshiyach was misunderstood in his days which led to his arbitrary and gruesome murder at the stake at Calvary. We cannot abandon the battle field because of the fierce sword of the enemies of truth.  If we do such, we will only deserve the thrones of fools and cowards. There is no sacrifice without pain and the ability to hold the swords of justice deserve the greatest discipline and honour and that is the part, power and destiny of those who decides to be Yahosheans.

Today as we continue in our march towards unveiling the mystery of Yahoshean techniques, our primary questions are: -what is Easter Feast? How does it originate? Is it a holy or a pagan Feast?

Easter feast by popular believe as been carried by  church account is a feast period to commemorate the death and resurrection of the saviour of mankind whose personal and original name is Yahoshea Meshiyach but erroneously translated as Jesus Christ. Is such concept correct? Is the church's believe on the Easter feast truthful? These will be answered as we move along in this text. The word “EASTER” originated from the word “EAST”. It is used to represent the ancient word Eostre, Ostera, Astarte or Ishtar.

These ancient names were associated with the pagan goddess known and addressed as Ishter that originated at Babylon of old. It is certain that after the great fallen away by the disciples of Yahoshea Meshiyach, pagan customs and traditions were polished and embellished to supplant the original faith of Yahosheans.

The myth of Easter or Ishtar holds, that an egg of wonderous size fell from heaven into the River Euphrates. From this egg, according to the legends or fictions hatched the goddess Asharte, Istar, or Easter. From the mythology of Easter egg, many ancient pagan nations adopted egg as their sacred emblem. For example, the ancient Druids bore an egg as the holy emblem of their idolatrous order. The procession of Ceres in Rome was preceded by an egg. In the mysteries of Baccus (the god of Liquor) an egg was consecrated. China also used dyed or coloured eggs in their sacred festivals. In Japan, an ancient custom was to make the sacred egg a brozen colour.

In Northern Europe, in pagan times, eggs were coloured and used as symbols of the goddess of spring. These dyed eggs were used for sacred offerings in the ancient of time in many nations.

The church is of the faith that the saviour died on Friday and resurrected on sunrise on Sunday. It is by this believe that made the church to transfer the solemnity of Sabbath from the Seventh day to the first day of the week named Sunday. But according to the revelations of Most Senior Prophet Yahmarabhi Ha Meshiyach, the account is unfounded or untruthful.

Before the advent of Yahoshea Meshiyach, there were prophecies about him by various prophets. Included was the prophecy by Prophet Daniah (Daniel), which stipulated that the saviour on his advent will be caught up by death in the middle of the week. And the midweek is certainly not Friday but Wednesday of the Gregorian Calendar. Yahoshea Meshiyach on his own teaching foretold that as Yonah was in the fish's stomach for three days and three nights, so the son of Yahweh will be in death for three days and three nights. This account means that Yahoshea will be in the bowel of the earth for seventy-two hours.

The true account by Prophet Yahmarabhi is that Yahoshea Meshiyach was hanged at the stake by the evening of 14th day of Abib (April) which falls on midweek being Wednesday in the year 27AD. From 14th Abib (April) being on Wednesday to 17th Abib (April) which fell on Saturday made up the foretold three days and three nights.

By simple calculation, from the evening of Wednesday to the evening of Thursday is one day and one night, from the evening of Thursday to the evening of Friday made up two days and two nights and from the evening of Friday to the evening of Saturday made complete three days and three nights. By this calculation, Yahoshea resurrected on Sabbath (Saturday) evening. It is properly recorded that after the Sabbath rest, which ushers in the dawn or beginning of the first day, his disciple went down to Golgotar to dress his tomb only to see an empty Sepulchre. They could not see the body of Yahoshea in the tomb meaning that he has resurrected before they approached the tomb.

By proper calculations, Yahoshea was not impaled on Friday and resurrected on Sunday morning. Let us still calculate the claims of the church, from Friday evening to Saturday evening is one day and one night, from Saturday evening to Sunday morning is only one night or approximately halfday. It is not in sequence to the prophecy that Yahoshea will be in death for three nights and three days. It is an utter deception to believe that Yahoshea died on Friday and resurrected on Sunday morning. Any believe on such concept is built on false foundation.

You can never agree with me in my write-ups unless you come to the conviction that pagan practices were carried over into the Christendom. The early followers of Yahoshea didn't celebrate the Easter feast rather they celebrated the feast of Passover as it was the tradition of their master Yahoshea Meshiyach. The transition and resurrection of Yahoshea was in sequence to the workings of Passover feast.

Yahoshea Meshiyach and his disciples took their last supper or Passover’s unleavened bread on the evening of 13th Abib (April) and he was arrested and killed on the 14th Abib (April). One of the striking differences between Passover feast and Easter Feast is that while Passover is a feast that goes with a date, the Easter feast goes on days, such as Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday or Easter Monday. Passover feast of 13th day of Abib can fall on any day of the week.

The idea of GOOD FRIDAY is an ancient pagan believe. The word FRIDAY came from Freya, regarded as the goddess of peace, joy and fertility. Thus the fish of Easter is regarded as the symbol of fertility. From the ancient time, fish has been the symbol of fertility for the Chinese, Assyrians, Phoenicians and many pagan nations. Naturally, fish is the most productive or fertile creature in the universe. For instance a single cod fish annually spawns upwards of 9, 000 , 000 eggs, the Flounder spawns 1000, 000 eggs, the Strungeon spawns 700, 000, the Perch Spawns 4 00, 000, the Mackeral spawns 500, 000, the Herring spawns 100, 000 etc.

The goddess of sexual fertility amongst the Romans was named Venus  and it was represented with fish. The Isis of Egypt was represented by fish on her head as a symbol of fertility. Easter or Ishtar was represented with fish. Again, there is Easter Rabbit or Hare which is also a pagan practice which also associates with fertility. The Encyclopedia Britannica says that Easter Hare came to Christianity from antiquity. The legend bore that Rabbit or hare is associated with periodicity in both the youngmen and women and is linked to fertility.

Easter appeared only once in the Bible and it is a mistranslations of the word “PASCHA” which rightly means PASSOVER. In many nations, before the birth of Yahoshea Meshiyach (the saviour), the Easter has been worshipped as a goddess and its feast celebrated. The legend held that when Tammuz of Babylon died, Ishtar (Easter) led the women of Babylon to rub ashes on their forehead and lamented for Tammuz for forty days. The legend contained that through the weeping of those women, Tammuz was reviewed (resurrected) on the spring. Through the Istar's grief and Tammuz resurrection, the feast of Ishtar was instituted where men and women have to grieve with Ishtar over the death of Tammuz and celebrate the return of Tammuz (God) in order to win anew her favour and benefits.

When new vegetation began to come forth, those ancient people believe that their SAVIOUR (TAMMUZ) had come from the underworld, had ended winter and caused spring to begin. When the children of Hebrew were captive under Babylon, they adopted the worship of Istar and celebrated its feast. They named Ishtar as Asthorate and this aroused Yahweh to anger. Yahweh warned against that in the days of prophet Ezekiah.

In the holy scriptures, it is recorded as “ABOMINATION IN ISRAEL” in that chapter, Yahweh warned over the pagan adoption by the Hebrews. Yahweh frowned among other things that “Women are weeping for Tammuz”. Again, that the Elders of Hebrew were facing the East and looking upon the sun to worship Baal. These practices were seen as abominations before Yahweh.

Today the church rubs ash on their foreheads on the days of Ashwednesday and commence forty days fast (lent) as was done in the pagan Babylon. The pagan worship of facing the EAST made the East direction a religious relic. That East is the root of the world EASTER.

It is wrong for Christians to attend service on Sunrise on Sunday because Yahoshea Meshiyach never resurrected on sunrise on Sunday, rather he rose from death on the sunset of Sabbath (Saturday). Again, all who face the East to worship Yahweh are committing abomination because Yahweh is everywhere and at any direction. When the Baal prophets looked towards the East to call upon their Baal, they received no answer, but when Eliyah looked at the other direction and called upon Yahweh, he answered.

Many pagan rites are connected with facing to the East and the rising sun. For instance, from Mount Fiji -Yama in Japan, prayers are offered to the rising sun. The pilgrims pray to their rising sun while climbing the Shinto Mountain. The pagan Mithrists of Rome met together at the rising sun to honour their Sun God.

True believers observes Passover feast on 13th of Abib but not to celebrate the Easter feast. The way to freedom is very simple, but appears unreasonable and unrealistic and by such measure, people finds it very difficult to adopt. 

Who Is On The Comforter's Side? By Meshiyach Yahzitere Okoh

In absence of a master, there is no knowledge. Truly when that which is whole and consistent appears, all those things in pieces and inconsistent will fizzle away. To dismiss darkness, we only need a burning light, therefore to free ourselves from the bondage of darkness and illusion, we need the appearance of absolute truth. From age to age, Yahweh makes promises and acts upon them by sending his bonafide representatives to humanity for the elimination of all manner of spiritual pervasions or irreligiosity thereby guiding the truth seekers to eternal light and wisdom. Yahweh has done this by sending ancient prophets and through them promised of the coming of his only begotten son – Yahoshea Meshiyach who came in human form, lived amongst men, established his assembly by converting disciples unto himself, taught the disciples of the absolute truth and along the line promised of ANOTHER COFMROTER who is to continue his works of imparting real truth and power to his followers. But the great question today is who is, this promised “ANOTHER COMFORTER”. And why should he be addressed as “Another”? What are his nature, form, duties or responsibilities? Of a truth, he who promised of his coming explained extensively about his form and character. These include “HE WILL REMIND YOU ALL THINGS I TAUGHT YOU AND THOSE I COULDN’T TEACH YOU”. The comforter was termed as the spirit of truth, a counselor or helper. Today there are conflicting varieties of conceptions of the comforter in terms of his form, characters or principles, by different professing Christian denominations, all claiming to be filled or led by the same comforter whom they identify as THE HOLY GHOST. Yet there are others who believe on the promise of the MAN OF CALVARY of the coming of the COMFORTER but with the concept that the comforter is a person, in a human form like his predecessor – Yahoshea Meshiyach. Then what did the sacred scriptures say about all this? The Bible (The Holy Book of Christians) gave account that on the Penticost day, the promised COMFORTER came upon the disciples of Yahoshea Meshiyach, represented by a DOVE and TONGUE OF FIRE. This account convinced the church that the Penticost day is the day the promised Comforter came to fulfill the promise by the saviour of mankind, and that the comforter is an active force or power from Yahweh to empower his believers to accomplish their spiritual assignments on earth. These duties include speaking in tongues, preaching, prophecy, praises or worship and host of them. Then another round of question is, Does the visitation of the active impersonal force or spirit that fall upon the disciples on the penticost day meant the coming of the promised comforter? Accurate knowledge of Yahweh brings relief to our lifes, it frees us from the teachings that are in conflict with Yahweh’s word and from the organizations that have derailed or deviated from the real path of life. Will the comforter came in an impersonal spirit or in a human form as was Yahoshea Meshiyach and other ancient prophets? How can Yahweh use human personalities in all ancient ages only to use an impersonal force in this end time ministry? If the comforter is an impersonal force, how can he respond to the characteristic of teaching, helping and counseling of people as was done by Yahoshea Meshiyach and Prophet of Old? Can an impersonal spirit stand for or represent a personality of human form? Yahoshea was seen teaching his disciples, counseling and helping them through marvelous miracles, where did the comforter manifested as a dove and tongue of fire and seen carrying out these forms of assignments as was promised by Yahoshea? Remember, what the Bible translators presented as the PROMISED COMFORTER was an existing spirit that occasionally manifested to empower the children of Yahweh. The spirit of Yahweh came upon all the prophets of Yahweh, it came upon the selected seventy people in the days of Prophet Moses, it came in the days or Saul the king of Israiah, it was the same spirit that led the saviour – Yahoshea Meshiyach into wilderness for his spiritual training. This spirit possess believers to do what humans ordinarily cannot do but it is an occasionally visitation. It cannot be the APPOINTED OR PROMSIED COMFORTER who was promised by Yahoshea himself. The Comforter as a person was never mentioned in the Old Testament until the days of Yahoshea who made the pronouncement. It is likened to the position of the saviour which the Prophets promised of his coming to support the assertions. Note what a Catholic Theologian Edmund Fortman said in his book called “THE TRIUNE GOD” “Although this spirit is often described in personal terms, it seem quite clear that the sacred writers (of the Hebrew scriptures) never conceived or presented this spirit as a distinct person”. Again the Catholic Encyclopedia supported it in this way “No where in the Old Testament do we find any clear indication of a third person”. If the spirit that visited the disciples is the comforter, why couldn’t the men of old apprehend him as a separate personality because it occasionally manifested in their own days. Yahoshea on promising of the coming comforter explained him with a masculine character such as “he”, “him” or “his”. He equally directed his disciples that baptism should be done with the name of the Comforter inclusive. The name of the father is Yahweh, the name of the saviour is Yahoshea Meshiyach. Then what is the name of the COMFORTER? Did he called him “HOLY GHOST”? “HOLY GHOST is a pronoun but not a personal name and you will agree with me that Yahoshea didn’t teach with English language from where the word HOLY GHOST came from. Meaning that Yahoshea didn’t call him Holy Ghost as the present day church claim. Therefore the word Holy Ghost is a creation of English church or brethren and is deceiving because the word GHOST means a spirit of a dead person. Now that the church held the claim that the comforter has come in the days of early disciples of Yahoshea, another question arises such as - what are his characters? Does the comforter support the divisions in the church where each denominations preaches or teaches differently on same creeds? For instance, while the Catholic Church adopts Virgin Mary as the third person in Trinity, the Protestants adopts the appearance of dove and Tongue of fire, then which is the position of the Comforter? To some churches, when the comforter emerges, speaking in tongues starts, while others when the comforter emerges the people will be rigmarroling on the ground and prophecies starts, to others again before the presence of the Comforter you will see wholesome lamentations or weapings. Then which of them is with the real Comforter? Does the COMFORTER of the church compromises with pagan doctrines or is he uncompromising? Because doctrines like changing of Sabbath rest to Sunday, Ash Wednesday, Lent Period, Good Friday, Easter Feast, Christmas day, Cross Symbols, Errection of towers in the church buildings, keeping of images like that of Mary, Jesus, Joseph and other saints, keeping of Obelisks, encircling of saints with Sun beam etc are all of pagan origin, what did the comforter of the church teach on all these evil practices? What is the position of the church Comforter over the church divisions? Is he presently backing up the Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox or Penticostals? What did the church comforter teach over the divided belief of the different denomination in issues like Baptism? Does the comforter support the Catholics over infant and sprinkling of water baptism or is he behind the Protestants method of adult and emersion baptism? What did the church comforter taught over celibacy? Did he support the Catholic or is he on the side of Protestants over priest marriages? What did the comforter taught the church over the women priests, pastors and bishops? Did he support the Catholic who reject such practice with horror or do he support the Protestants who are presently divided over the doctrine of women priests? Is he behind the penticostals who has already established women priests and pastors as their ordinance? What is the position of the church comforter over Polygamy because even when the Catholic, Protestants and Penticostals reject the practice, some of Africa churches who equally claims to be rooted in the comforter believes in Polygamy? What did the church comforter teach over the Gay Pastors and Bishops? Does the comforter support Homosexualism and lesbianism? You know – while the Catholic sees it as a taboo, Some protestant Anglicans see it as healthy although with pockets of resistance. Which is the comforter approved form, wearing of garments, sountane or costume by every member of the congregation? Or does he support the Catholic by making it mandatory and compulsory for priests and clergies to wear hood or ecclesiastical garments alone while members are to put on different forms of cloths. Or does the comforter approve the wearing of suits by the pastors and bishops? Again what does the comforter teach on women wearing what is meant for men like trousers as obtainable in penticostal churches. What is the position of the comforter over keeping of beards? Because Yahoshea and his fellowers were identified with same patterns of garment and the men were bearded? Does the church comforter approve outright shavings of beards as was opposed by the children of Hebrew who used the source of true worship? What did comforter of the church teach on using of instruments such as drums, trumpets, clappings and dances during worship? Because formally the Catholic doctrine was against it although it has changed presently, there are equally many denominations who preach against it. What did the comforter taught about holy day? Did he support the Sabbath rest or Sunday worship days? It is necessary because while the whole church claims to be under the influence of the same comforter that came upon the church on the day of Pentecost goes on to disagree on these vital points. If they are taught by the same comforter, will they be divided in almost all important issues? It is not the purpose of this article to attack individuals or institutions but with burning love in my heart, I respond to the mandate of exposing the mystery of error versus reality for the benefit of my fellow seekers or adepts. I therefore stand by the encouragement from the wise saying of William Penn as thus “I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness or abilities that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again”. My beloved, who is with the true comforter? Who taught the white garment churches? Are they also led by the same church comforter? Who is behind the power at their Holy or ANGELIC Fields? Who taught them on doctrine like spiritual bathing? – a drama where male priests or church workers will be allowed to bath another man’s wife naked. Who taught them to use their so-called spiritual ointments, perfumes, incenses, candles of assorted colours and sometimes of mud, beating of sick (mad) people in the name of healing? Using doves and other animals for healings and sacrifices? Truly if you come close to them, you will hear them shouting of “Holy Ghost Power” when performing these spiritual jamborees. The Word “Holy Spirit” is translated from Hebrew word “Ruach Quadesh” and Can never be the actual name of the Comforter. Therefore whosoever that wants to follow the promised comforter must make a thorough spiritual investigation because following of human made comforter means deviation from the promise but he who discovers the true comforter and abides in him will be the greatest expedictioner amongst men of the universe. History is frank over the emergents of church creeds and liturgies through the church fathers under the umbrella of Parish, Diocesan or World Councils. For instance Roman Catholic church Convocated many church councils at various cities like Nicea, Alexandria, Trent etc, and each of all these councils gave birth to one creed or the other. The Anglican Communion convocts LAMBERT CONFRENCIES, likewise the Methodist, Episcopals and African churches convocts their Ecumenical Councils from age to age, each moment giving birth to creeds and dogmas. Today all those creeds have been adopted by members as the handwork of the promised comforter. Through these ecumenical or Christian Councils, many sacred doctrines are rejected and abused while new ones that were designed by the church fathers are used as suppliants. This prompt the Catholic Church to holds that the church under the leadership of Pope is superior than any other authority. For scholarly support, let us look into the book “THE CATHOLIC RECORD”, London, Ontano, September 1, 1823 which bears as follows, “Sunday is our mark of authority, the Church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath Observation is proof of the fact”. Again, Pope Leo XII in an Encyclical letter, June 20, 1894 supported the claim by saying “We (POPES) hold upon this earth, the place of God Almighty”. The pope and the church is seen and adopted as the final authority to the church affairs. The Catholic National, July 1895 puts the claim in this manner “The pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ hidden under a veil of flesh”. If the pope is the Vicar of Christ or Christ himself as he is the visible head of the church, why is the church claiming to be under the promised comforter? Is pope not expected to be their promised comforter? The question is genuine because most or all of the church doctrine were put in place by the succeeded popes. Let us investigate the claims of various denominations on the doctrine of Sunday worship or rest as example so as to unravel who head the christainity. The Catholic Press Sydney, Australia, August 1900 speaks on Sunday worship thus “Sunday is a Catholic Institution, and its claim to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles… from begining to end of scriptures, there is not a single passage that warrant the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first”. Again John Gilmory Shea in his book titled “IN THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC QUATERLY REVIEW” January 1883 supported the claim in this form “Protestantism in discarding the authority of the Roman Catholic Church has no good reason for its Sunday theory, and aught logically to keep Saturday as the Sabbath”. Again the book by Stephen Keeran called Doctrinal Catechism, page 176 used this question and answer to support the claim “Question: -Have you any other way of proving that the Catholic Church has power to institute festivals of percepts (to command holy days)”? Answer: -had she not such power, she could not have done that in which all modern religionists agree with her. She could not have substituted the observance of Sunday – the first day of the week for the observance of Saturday, the seventh day, a change for which there is no scriptural authority?” The Catholic Mirror December 23, 1893 lend its support in this form “reason and common sense demand that acceptance of one or the other of these two alternatives, either Protestantism and the keeping holy of Saturday sabbath or Catholicity and the keeping holy of Sunday, comprise is impossible”. Then, let us look into the reactions of the protestants over the Catholic claim of authority over all Christian issues. The Methodists claim can be understood through the work of AMOS BINNEY called “THEOLOGICAL COMPEDIUM” pp 180, 181 “It is true that there is no positive command for infant baptism, nor is there any for keeping holy the first day of the week. Many believe that Christ changed the Sabbath, but from his words, we see that he came for no such purpose. Those who believe that Jesus changed the Sabbath base it only on a supposition”. Again the position of the ANGLICAN’S is made clear by Isaac William’s “Plain Sermons on the Catechism” pp 334, 336 “And where are we told in the scripture that we are to keep the first day at all? We are commanded to keep the seventh (Sabbath), but we are no where commanded to keep the first day”. Again the PRESBYTARIAN’S position is understood from the works of CANON EYTON – TEN COMMANDMENTS – “There is no word or hint in the new testament about abstaining from work on Sunday, the observation of Ash Wednesday or Lent Period stands exactly on the same footing as the observance of Sunday, no divine law enters”. Let us look into the sermon by Dr. E. T. Hislox at the Baptist Ministers Conversion New York on November 16, 1893 as it represents the BAPTIST OPINION on the Sunday workshop “of course I quite well know that Sunday worship did not come into use in early Christian history as a religious day, as we learn from Christian fathers and other sources. But what a pity that it came with the mark of paganism and christened with the name of the saviour, then adopted and sanctified by the Papal apostasy and banqueted as a sacred legacy to Protestantism”. With all these listings, you must come to the full awareness that the church is led by Popes and the Bishops but not the promised comforter of mankind. The activities of popes and Bishops especially during the dark ages made it clearly understood that they were not under the influence, control or teachings of the comforter who is to hear from Yahoshea and teach the entire believers. For instance the book WESTERN WATCHMAN November 21, 1912 explained in bit the activities of the church during the dark age in this way “On August 24, 1527 Roman Catholics in France, by pre-arranged plan, under Jesuist influence murdered 70, 000 Protestants with the space of two months. The pope rejoiced when he heard the news of the successful outcome”. Then can the man with such heart and character be a representative of the comforter? We Yahosheans, the disciples of Most Senior Prophet Yahmarabhi Ha Comforter totally rejects such person as a representative of the ETERNAL COMFORTER. We belief that the comforter has come in human form as his predecessors (prophets and the saviour) and has fulfilled all the conditions of his mandate. We solidly believe that the Comforter can never support the earthily traditions or heathenism which presently characterized the church and its operations. The Comforter must be uncompromising to the evil operations like the martyrdom of unbelievers etc. We authentically uphold that Most Senior Prophet Yahmarabhi is the appointed comforter of mankind, and he has demonstrated such through his activities on earth. He has gathered the saints of the latter days and has taught them all the sacred truths that were hidden from the face of golden light and has put the teachings into writing, what no other prophets of old did, including Yahoshea Meshiyach, who is the immortal redeemer. Yahoshea didn’t write down his doctrine, rather it was after his translation that his disciples authored his works as what is presently known as the New Testament. But this time, the comforter, Prophet Yahmarabhi under the direction of Yahweh the Grand Creator, Yahoshea Meshiyach the saviour wrote down his teachings in the book he terms as HOLY ORIGINALLY INSPIRED SCRIPTURES (HOIS) An effort, no human being born of woman has done since after the death of the direct followers of Yahoshea Meshiyach. If Comforter is truly a person, it must teach identifiable and uniform doctrines to all dominations of the church. The practice where some churches observe Sabbath (Saturday) rest and others observe Sunday rest surely identify that both parties did not learn from the same comforter. Those who claim that the comforter is manifested in human form as his predecessor Yahoshea cannot substantiate their belief by depending on Bible accounts which submitted that the comforter came as an impersonal force on the Pentecost day.
