“Mene, Mene, Tikel Upharsin” – The Writing’s on the Wall

/ By / Biblical Light, Endtimes
King Belshazzar was greatly troubled and his lords were astonished!

“Mene, Mene, Tikel Upharsin.” These were the Hebrew words written on the wall in the Biblical Book of Daniel. The only one who could interpret them for Belshazzar, King of Babylon, was Daniel, a Jewish man who had been taken into captivity from Judea by Nebuchadnezzar. Before interpreting the words, Daniel reprimanded Belshazzar for not humbling himself before the God of Heaven.  He had in fact exalted himself against God, stolen the vessels from the Temple in Judea and was using them in his own temple to drink wine and party with his friends. Belshazzar worshiped gods/idols of gold and silver which “neither see, nor hear, nor know” anything. Therefore, God sent a hand to write on the wall before the king: “Mene. Mene, tekel, upharsin.” When the king’s “wise” men, magicians, and priests couldn’t tell him what it meant, he finally called Daniel.

This is the interpretation: …

Is it Easter? or Ishtar?

Worship of the Queen of Heaven

The pagan celebration of the worship of Ishtar, the Queen of Heaven, has morphed into what is now called “Easter.”  By changing the name they hoped to bury the origin of the worship of the Queen of Heaven, but we will expose the roots of this deception.  Today she is worshiped under the name, “Virgin Mary.” They change the names but the characters are the same.

In 2016 The National Retail Federation expected consumers to spend $17.3 billion, up considerably from what they spent in 2008 – that number was $14.4 billion!  This day definitely makes the merchants of the earth become very rich.

What exactly about “Good Friday” is Good?

/ By / Holidays of Man

The Friday before “Easter” is celebrated in religious tradition as the day when Y’hoshua (Jesus) was crucified and placed in the tomb.  The day is called “Good Friday”.  It is difficult to imagine what sort of mindset would identify the day Y’hoshua was murdered as “Good.”  Some claim that the term “Good” simply means “pious” or “holy” but again, what is holy or pious about the day the “Son of God” was murdered?  Do you think that God considers the day his Son was killed to be Good?

Roman Catholic doctrine considers Jesus to be God incarnate.  It is even more absurd to think that men not only killed God but celebrate the deed.  What kind of god can be killed by his own creation?  Consider what happened to those who sought to kill God at the Tower of Babel.

The Pagan Origins of St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th

/ By / Historical, Holidays of Man

According to Wikipedia, “Saint Patrick’s Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick, is a cultural and religious celebration held on 17 March, the traditional death date of Saint Patrick, the foremost patron saint of Ireland.” This doesn’t really give much information! The truth is the whole tradition of Patrick is nothing but a deception designed to make the Irish people forget their heritage and follow Roman Catholicism. Patrick’s birth name was Patricius Magonus Sucatus. When he was about 14-16 he was captured by Irish raiders and taken to Ireland where he was enslaved by them to be a herdsman. After some time, he escaped on a ship headed for Gaul where he became a disciple of Germanus of Auxerre, proclaimed another Catholic “saint,” a man criticized for leading people in pagan ways, who went to Britain preaching and setting up seminaries.

Is that Lent in your pocket?

/ By / Historical, Holidays of Man

During this time of year – some might ask – Why don’t you do lent?  My answer is Why do it?  Anyone who has had a child knows that the number one question asked of a parent is “Why?”  This is a valid question that must needs be answered here.  If you consider God’s Word, there is no mention of Lent the way it is practiced today.  Why?!  Lent is the pre-cursor to the most important “holy-day” according to some, so why is the practice not found in the Word of God?  Did Moses say “thou shalt put ash on your forehead on the Wednesday after Fat Tuesday and give up something for forty days?”  Most definitely-he did not!   Therefore – we can deduce that this practice has It’s roots elsewhere.

According to Alexander Hislop in his book The Two Babylons, the forty days’ abstinence of Lent was directly borrowed from the worshippers of the Babylonian goddess (Ishtar – Astarte – the Queen of Heaven) … Among the Pagans this Lent seems to have been an indispensable preliminary to the great annual festival in commemoration of the death and resurrection of Tammuz, which was celebrated by alternate weeping and rejoicing …
