Season known as "Easter Time" Ishtar fertility goddess.
This is a pagan holiday. The Easter bunny and paganism.

true."
John 11:23-26, and an announcement today.
Lazarus was raised up from the dead after four days in the tomb.
John 11:23-26, "Do you believe this?"
In Christ, the truth of the matter is you don't die.
Mike Plaatje died on Wednesday of a heart condition complication.
His friend, Paul, came and sang in his place this day.
The preacher felt selfish sorrow this week,
but now Mike is on tour with the Lord's traveling band.
Better to be with the Lord, and not lean upon our own understanding.
Mike was taken from us this last Wednesday,
the very day the "DC Street Sorcery" DVD production was
completed.
Mike's "Satan Bow Down" song was placed at the end of the DVD
production.
A Memorial service is planned for next Sunday, from 1 to 2 pm MDT.
There will be live streaming on the internet of the service.
His mother will watch it on the internet, as she is not able

him.
The Lord is thanked, for we know that He works all things for good.
Mike believed that when you die in Christ, you live on.
This Thursday, 7-8pm MDT, we will have live-streaming church service, to
celebrate the Passover and to take Passover communion.
THE DOOR AND PROPHESY is the sermon message title today.
1 John 2:26, "These things I have written to you concerning those
who are trying to deceive you." NASV.
Ezra Pound made clear the enemy's plan to get the
deceived arguing over two lies, as to which one is true.
"Concerning those who are trying to deceive you."
Sheep don't believe someone would purposely try to deceive them.
The enemy came to steal, kill, and destroy.
They take away the most important day that Christians should be
observing.
The Roman catholic church has held up
the exaltation of Ishtar, the fertility goddess.
Easter bunnies and colorful Easter eggs glorify
the Roman fertility goddess, Ishtar.
This is pure paganism and not Christianity.
This is the counterfeit Passover day, known as Easter Sunday.
The preacher did a sermon message on this subject some time ago.
They used this to replace the most important day, the Passover Day.
Deceivers have come in to trick the sheeple,
as this harlequin black magic bamboozles the sheep.
Isaiah 1:14, your feast days God hates.
The Jewish calculated lunar feast days are told of in Isaiah 1:14.
"I hate your new moon festivals and your appointed feasts, They
have become a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing them." NASV.
SOLAR SANITY VS. LUNAR LUNACY, is a book
on this subject written by the preacher.
Read it online or order it from the ministry.
Satan's deception sucks God's people into the jewish lunar
calendar days,
as they observe Passover by the lunar days.
Easter is set up to occur on the first Sunday, after the first full
moon, following the vernal equinox.
This day is always fluctuating, and never falling on the same day each
year.
True Passover is 14 days after the Solar calendar new year's day,
which is always the vernal equinox.
It is a most important time to keep.
The Passover is the "Door."
Matthew 24:32-33. "The Last Summer" sermon message was
preached last summer. "Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when
its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that
summer is near; so, you too, when you see all these things, recognize that He
is near, right at the door." NASV.
Luke 13:24, "Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I
tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able." NASV.
The average judeo-Christian isn't even thinking about the
"Door."
The clearness in God's word is there, and yet many don't even get
baptized,
nor partake of communion.
Proverb 25:2,"It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the
glory of kings is to search out a matter."
Luke 13:25, "Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door,
and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, 'Lord, open up to
us!' then He will answer and say to you, 'I do not know where you are from.'
NASV.
Urgent Eleventh Hour Message: What is coming and what to do.
11 hours of tape messages, on cassette tape or CD.
Eleven messages total. You may listen to these messages and catch
up to this teaching about keeping the Passover.
Matthew 25:1-13, and the parable of the wise and foolish virgins.
"Trimmed" means to put in order.
Many will say, "I don't buy that."
The virgins represent the Christians: five wise and five foolish.
The door was shut.
What is this door?
James 5:1-9, and the super rich that are robbing and plundering us right
now.
You better be putting your trust in God Almighty,
and not in the deceitfulness of riches like gold and silver.
The Bible says that Satan will wear down the saints.
When you become fainthearted, Pray!
Many believe His coming is still a long way off.
You are merely witnessing the beginnings of the birth pangs, with these
extreme weather events and earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Isaiah 26:20 & 21, "Come, my people, enter into your rooms And
close your doors behind you; Hide for a little while Until indignation runs its
course. For behold, the LORD is about to come out from His place To punish the
inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; And the earth will reveal her
bloodshed And will no longer cover her slain." NASV.
"Close your doors behind you."
"To punish the inhabitants of the earth."

word. They want their ears to be tickled.

John 10:1-7, ""Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not
enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he
is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the
sheep. To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls
his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he puts forth all his own, he
goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. A
stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do
not know the voice of strangers." This figure of speech Jesus
spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had
been saying to them. So Jesus said to them again, "Truly, truly, I say to
you, I am the door of the sheep." NASV.
1 Corinthians 5:7, "Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a
new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our
Passover also has been sacrificed." (Emphasis added.) NASV.
The door is the door day know as the Passover Day.
It has been replaced with the counterfeit deception of Easter Sunday.
The Vernal equinox is known as "Spring Day."
Jesus being the Door.
Now for some tricky mathematics,
and the impressive math skills of the preacher,
done entirely without the use of a calculator!

"For Christ our Passover has been sanctified."
Jesus said, "I am the Door."

They knew it was vitally important, as a perpetual statute from the
Lord.
Psalm 74: 4-8, from THE SEPTUAGINT BIBLE,
as this was the translation used by the apostles.
"They who hate Thee have indeed triumphed: in the midst of Thy
festival they set up their own signs: The signs pointing to the entrance above
they did not know. As if in a forest of trees, they cut down with axes the
doors of that entrance. Then with hatchets and mattocks they broke it down.
They burned Thy sanctuary to the ground with fire: they profaned the habitation
of Thy name. They said, The whole brood of them are in their heart set upon
this: come, let us cause to cease from the land the festivals of the
Lord."
Our enemies know there is power in the Passover.
Baptism, communion, and, as told by Peter, in 1 Peter 1:5,
"Who are protected by the power of God through faith for a
salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." NASV.
Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge."
NASV.
Jesus arose from the tomb on the third day, as the single greatest
historical event in the history of man.
Matt:28:11-15, tells of the attempt made to keep the knowledge of His
resurrection from the people. They used money, bribes, lies,
and cover-up deceptions to bamboozle the people.
They did the same thing with the Door, the Passover Day,
as they deceive with the counterfeit Easter Sunday facade.
The Door is Christ; Christ is the Passover.

We go back to the old ways, the ancient paths, said Jeremiah.
The Passover Day observance was kept by the ancients.
The Stonehenge in Vermont was constructed to discern the vernal equinox,

Passover is so important, Numbers 9:10-11 contains the provision,
