God gave Israel Passover. Jesus identified the bread and cup with His body and blood. Where, then, did the Easter traditions so many Christians cherish come from—and who gave them authority?
In Is Paganism Being Wrapped in a Christian Label?, we examine Scripture, ancient festivals, early church disputes, and the writers who challenged inherited religious customs. We follow the word translated “Easter” in Acts 12:4 back to pascha, examine biblical warnings against borrowed worship, and encounter Gregory’s explicit policy of adapting former pagan religious settings and celebrations for Christian use.
What connects Easter’s name, eggs, hares, fasting, and sunrise services to older practices? Which connections are documented? Which remain disputed? And why do these customs occupy so much attention when Scripture already gives us Christ our Passover?
Open your Bible. Examine the sources. Consider what your own traditions teach.
We should desire to worship God the way He wants to be worshiped.
If that desire challenges something we love, are we willing to listen?
