However, I made no mention of sacrifices and oblations, although I do give personal offering unto the LORD--since I have no crops they are of a different nature. I was speaking of feasts, though--the three feasts of the year.

And yes, I do keep them.

But together how many indigenous peoples have the Jews, Christians and Muslims butchered claiming 'Chosen' status.

though i'm twitching with anger i will post.. so are you saying that satanist religions are right
Originally posted by saint4God
It is not Christian and see no reference to a swastika in Christian history.
Satan doe not want the Jews on earth, nor does he want Israel their promised land, nor does he want them to fulfil God’s promise. Muslims want exactly as the Bible warns us that Satan and those ignorant to all this scenario to join his the battle against the Jews. Civilisations just fall away when the Jewish spiritual agenda is passing through time. No one has defeated them, the Egyptians-where are they? The Greeks, Babylonians, Romans, Nazis, Muslims during their sword baring conquests (650AD) to take over land and of course present day Muslims. None have wiped them out they all wanted to and even now it seems the world wants to rid of them especially the Muslims for that tiny bit of land. Remember semi-humans ran the surrounding areas of Israel and spiritually demonic controlled, that is why efforts are mounting like history has already shown down the same path. Man is on course again to repeat why they have gone wrong even if we thing we are more advanced we are heading down the same path, easy fro God to predict it as it is written it will.

That's no justification for forsaking God's decrees!
See Leviticus chapter 23, Saint4God--there are 3 obligatory feasts each year. These have not been nullified, nor will they be

I'm more than willing to be corrected. Can you show me please? By the way "pagan Christian" is an oxymoron. It's the same as saying and unbelieving believer.
Manichaeism originated in 3rd Century Babylon (a province of Persia at the time), and reached, over the span of the next ten centuries, from North Africa in the west, to China in the East. The original texts of Manichaeism were composed in Syriac-Aramaic. As they spread to the east, the writings of the religion passed through Middle Persian, Parthian, Sogdian, and ultimately Uyghur Turkish and Chinese translations. As they spread to the west, they were translated into Greek, Coptic, and Latin. As Manichaeism passed through time, location, and language, it also adapted new religious deities from the surrounding religions into the Manichaean scriptures. Thus, as the original Aramaic texts were translated into Iranian languages, the names of the Manichaean deities (or angels) were often transformed into the names of Zoroastrian yazatas.

Okay, Tau Cross doesn't look like a swastika either: www.thecross-photo.com... . Please clarify.
The 'Crux Commissa' is a 'T' shaped cross; 'Commissa' meaning 'joined' or 'attached'. The more widely known names are the Tau Cross (St. Anthony's Cross) and the Forked Cross (Y-shaped Cross).

Like this?:
"It starts out with a discussion of the use of the swastika throughout the Mediterranean region in close connection with goddesses such as the Greek Athene and Artemis. the Artemis graphic is particularly striking, and rich in symbolism"
Christianity did not originate nor endorse endorse Athene and Artemis. It's against the whole "You shall have no other gods before me" (Exodus 20:3)

I can understand such a claim being challenged.
Think about this though…the Greeks and Jews parted in the interpretations.
Here is that reference you seek.
“The Swastika was the cross of the Manicheans and was their sole symbol. During the second and third centuries the swastika was the only form of cross used by the Christians.
The swastika touched everywhere, and wherever it appeared, like the wheel, it was looked upon as the symbolical representation of solar energy…”

Judaism, the forefather to Christianity is also a religion born of darkness...they begin their day at SUNSET not sunrise and the hebrew alphabet is known as the Flame alphabet.
So I agree with you. You are both confirmed FIRE cults weilding the firepower.

And the Fire Cults can be shown to have a HIStory of displacing those who followed the cycles of the cosmos ... the Solar, Water and Fertility Cults, using the power of fire.

So discuss history without making reference to a book that archaeologists and historians alike use?
This is the problem faithful beliefs run into when talking with Christians educated in their beliefs -- Christianity is not a faithful religion, but a factual one.
