Being a scholar of scripture I can attest that most of the language used to describe Jesus' (original Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek) birth indicated the timing to be around the Feast of Trumpets in early Fall, just prior to the great fall harvest time when the Feast of Tabernacles occurs, before the sheepherds brought their flocks in.
Also understanding what the Feast of Trumpets pictures in God's word creates added beautiful undertanding to the purpose of God's Passover sacrifice; Jesus Christ.
God Bless,

Just because, as a pagan, you do not believe in Satan, doesn't mean you are not actively worshipping in the manner that such a being created for you to worship in.
As the origin of all that opposes the truth of God, any type of worship apart from or against that which God reveals is true is from Satan and thus Satanic, regardless of what the one doing the action believes personally.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the origin of truth, all other beliefs are false and originate from the source of falseness, Satan. You will not believe this or understand this concept at this time, but it is true regardless. Long before pagans were celebrating the winter solstice, Satan existed and created a manner of worship against what is true, in which you place your faith in at this time.
No one is debating that false worship existed before the birth of Jesus Christ (paganism) but to think that is not Satanic is to remain in teh darkness of this age; by God's perfect design.
God Bless,

Read the actual Passover rites/ritual revealed through Moses when God gave the law to mankind, not the single event of the Passover resulting in the begining of the Exodus.
50 days later (from the day of the waif sheif), Moses received the law of God on Pentecost at Sinai. In that revelation came the rites of the Passover Sacrifice.
A male lamb of the firstborn (or male goat) without blemish (representing sin) was to be offered up for the remission of the sins of the family. Its blood must be "spilt to the Earth" and the animal is to be roasted and eaten (take this bread and EAT IT).
On Passover 31AD (the day of the death of Jesus Christ) God offered up His only son the "Lamb of God" whose sacrifice took away the "sins of the world" (family). Jesus' blood spilt to the Earth (pierced by a spear) rather than the far more common manner of death through being "nailed to a pole" (not cross) which is suffication.
God gave His Passover sacrifice for mankind on Passover 31AD, he did the very thing he asked Abraham to do on Passover nearly 1700 years earlier when he was willing to sacrifice his only son (Isaac) for the remission of his family's sins.
Passover has been fulfilled many times throughout history. If you really want to know what is true regarding the Passover, this posting is a start, however I feel from your attitude you were just looking to find fault, which is a normal and expected response to truth from God.
God Bless,

Created false religions, made fake dinosaur fossils all to trick mankind. And only Christianity can save you. Only Christians know the truth. Their book says so.
BTW I am not a pagan and I find your condescending attitude offensive.

lol.
Dinosaurs were real, their fossils indicate millions of years ago and that is real. God has revealed the understanding of these things, but if you want to throw what is true in with what is concidered "christian" then so be it to your own folly.
"christians" are just as far from the truth as pagans, only those called out of this age for a specific purpose learn overtime how to worship God in spirit and in truth.
I appologize if my words cause any offense, it was directed at a pagan specifiacally. The truth of things can cause some to take offense, depending on who they chose to defend.
God Bless,

What does it matter what a jew says regarding Gods truth?
The jew rejected God's Passover, there is little truth in that religion as much as what you call "christian".
God's truth is very plain and simple to grasp, but it requires God calling you out of the religions of man and into His Temple, whose builder and maker is God.
God Bless,

In this age, you are meant to believe exactly as you do and determine for yourself what is right and what is wrong. That is the purpose of this age, accordind to the perfect will of God.
I encourage you to continue convicting yourself of your beliefs, it makes God's plan over time more effective when the time comes to reveal what is true.
God Bless,

Honestly it doesnt matter what the jews say- OR the Christians.
Its all interpretation, which was my point. I could interperet the Passover in a way nobody has thought of- it doesnt make my interpretation "right". And since there is no proving WHAT the passover meant, it means different things to different people.
To me it seemed quite murderous and evil to take someones free will away, harden their heart so you can show your Power and Punish people by killing their Children- But thats just me- An Agnostic, and MY interpretation.

I fully intend there to be harmony between all faiths in the next couple of decades.
You might try asking a Jew...Like Jesus.

But I think that the whole concept of gift giving is suppose to be in hommage of the 3 wise men giving baby Jesus gifts.... (the gifts were rather odd by the way)...
But this is like saying each of our children is equivalent to Jesus? (maybe...maybe not)
