  • Origins of Valentine's Day
    Origins of Valentine's Day Various Authors CHURCH OF GOD ARCHIVES Origins of Valentine's Day Valentine's Day - Christian Custom or Pagan Pageantry? by Herman L Hoeh "Will you be my valentine?" That question is asked by millions about this time of year. Why? Is there any religious significance to February 14? Where did St. Valentine's Day come from? You might suppose schoolteachers and educators would know. But do they? How many of you were ever taught the real origin of Valentine's Day — were ever told in school exactly why you should observe the custom of exchanging valentines? Teachers are all too often silent about the origin of the customs they are forced to teach in today's schools. If they were to speak out, many would lose their jobs! Today, candy makers unload tons of heart-shaped red boxes for February 14 — St. Valentine's Day — while millions of the younger set exchange valentines. Florists consider February 14 as one of their best business days. And young lovers pair off – at least for a dance or two — at St. Valentine's balls. Why? Where did these customs originate? How did we come to inherit these customs? Isn't it time we examined why we encourage our children to celebrate St. Valentine's Day? A Christian custom? Many have assumed that the traditional Valentine's Day celebrations are all in connection with an early Christian martyr by the name of Valentine. Nothing could be further from the truth! Notice what one encyclopedia says about this idea: "St.

Tangherlini, Chair The academic study of Scandinavian culture and Scandinavian literature has long ignored the engagement of the Nordic nations in the tradition of drama and performance in medieval Europe. Early drama history scholars like Sophus Birket Smith and G.E. Klemming made claims about a perceived lack of practice based on limited sources and most of the scholars who followed them have accepted those claims as valid. Unfortunately, Birket Smith and Klemming were working with an incomplete corpus and nineteenth-century ideas about what constituted “drama”. Later scholars such as Frederick and Lise-Lone Marker and Terry Gunnell have made great headway in expanding the concept of drama and performance within the field of Scandinavian studies while also clarifying what texts we do, in fact, still have.

  • To Abilene... to the Religions That Crucify the Savior Each Day Because They Refuse to Repent of Breaking Yahweh’S Laws
    But you will speak My Words; the Laws and the Prophets, to them... whether they will listen or whether they will not...and they will yet know that there has been a Prophet among them. Yechetzqyah 2:7, 5 YISRAYL HAWKINS You need to read this article thoroughly, and compare it with the Holy Scriptures. IT’S VITAL TO YOUR SALVATION! You will not survive what is coming next on this world if you don’t repent of sin (I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8) and convert to keeping Yahweh’s Laws (Acts 3:18-23). You are not praying to the Creator Yahweh when you pray to God, El, Elohim, Adonai, Lord or the many other titles that have been used to replace the Name of the Creator. Yahweh will not answer you when you pray using these pagan titles. To Abilene... To The Religions That Crucify The Savior Each Day Because They Refuse To Repent Of Breaking Yahweh’s Laws.

All Scriptures are from the New King James Version unless otherwise noted. © 2000, 2012, 2015 the Eternal Church of God The Truth About Halloween The fall season is a strikingly beautiful time of year. As the sun wanes, harsh weather looms on the horizon and many plants die or become dormant. Foliage changes its appearance stirring up a stunning atmosphere filled with shades of yellow, red, brown and green. During this unique time, a strange ritual of behavior takes place. Millions of people adorn their surroundings with images of witches, black cats, skeletons, ghosts, monsters, and spiders. Many will masquerade as devils, fairies, and ghouls. They attend parties as children parade through neighborhoods knocking on doors declaring “trick or treat,” expecting to receive candy or a gift. But is Halloween something Christians should observe? Where did this holiday come from? Why the hideous imagery with a dominant theme of witchcraft and death? Digging up Halloween’s Roots Few realize that our modern day Halloween celebrations can be traced to ancient times; long before the birth of Christ. The earliest accounts of its observance reveal that it was pagan Celts who linked the waning sun, and declining fruitfulness, with the chill of a lifeless grave. A religious mythology developed and gave rise to pagan priests known as Druids. Historians Ralph and Adelin Linton wrote: ~ 1 ~ The Truth about Halloween . The earliest Halloween celebrations were held by the Druids in honor of Samhain, Lord of the Dead, whose festival fell on November 1 (Halloween Through Twenty Centuries, p.
