(2) The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. (3) I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. (4) The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. (5) The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. (6) In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. Two things to keep in mind: 1. God doesn't change: He is the same every day. 2. The Devil deceived the whole world. 1 John 4:1, 4-6 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. (5) They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. (6) We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. Notes: Spirit = God, Angels, Breath of Life, Thoughts of the Mind, & Words. In this verse it is the words that come out of a person's mouth. False prophets = prophets who speak lies about the Word of God. It is up to us to choose either Salvation or Damnation Matthew 7:7-8, 13-15 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: [8] For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. [15] Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Notes: Most false prophets stand in the pulpit preaching in Jesus name while telling their flocks lies. Matthew 24:1-5, 11 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. [2] And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. [3] And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy 4/25/15 Teacher - Bro.

[4] And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. [5] For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

The earliest recorded observance of an Easter celebration comes from the 2nd century, though the commemoration of Jesus’ Resurrection probably occurred earlier. The English word Easter, which parallels the German word Ostern, is of uncertain origin. One view, expounded by the Venerable Bede in the 8th century, was that it derived from Eostre, or Eostrae, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring and fertility.

Easter for instance takes its name from the Norse goddess Eostre and from the Greek's Diana (goddess of fertility) rights were held in the spring. Egg represents a symbol of birth (fertility/rabbits). Cakes, which today are the 'Hot Cross' buns. “EASTER” Pagan Festival – comes from the word, Eostre (a pagan goddess). It is rooted in a Syrian religion, which centered around sacred temple prostitutes and orgiastic rites. Astarte = Phoenician goddess of fertility was worshipped by stimulating people into wild sexual abandonment using music, incense and drugs. Grolier Ency., Vol. 6, pg. 287 The Beginning of “JESUS” Ministry – Lent 40-day season of fasting; imitating JESUS temptation in the wilderness. When you put Lent & Easter together, Christians are saying that JESUS never taught because after fasting and being tempted by the devil he was crucified and resurrected. They forget about the fact that Jesus taught for 3 1/2 years before his death. Grolier Ency. Vol. 9, Pg. 553 "SUNDAY - Day of the Sun" an Anglo-Saxon word is the first day of the week.

Sun Worship is/was the chief worship of the Gentiles and Egyptians. John 4:19-22 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. [20] Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. [21] Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. [22] Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. Notes: Jews = The 12 Tribes of Israel People are being taught the customs of the Gentiles (White people) and not the customs of Israel. Daniel 7:1-8, 15-17, 19, 23, 25 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. [2] Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. [3] And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. [4] The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. [5] And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. [6] After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. [7] After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. [8] I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things. 15 I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. [16] I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things. [17] These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth. 19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet; 23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
