Christmas & Easter Errors
Does the Bible condemn our Christmas practices? Specifically, adorning trees with silver and gold?
Is the portrayal of a person known as Santa Claus idolatrous by Biblical-definitions?
Does the name and worship-timing of Easter dishonor God? Was "Easter" a Pagan goddess?
Should we find a different name for the holiday that celebrates Jesus's resurrection?
The answer to all these questions is yes.
