Truth sets us free.

It doesn’t matter what it means to me; it matters what it means to God.

Study by Barna group – number 1 Christian research group:The problem facing Christianity is that they are not open to being proven wrong or learning new insights.Both clergy and laity – indifference to and acknowledge a lack of evaluation – “we have all the answers already”.John Calvin – Is it faith to understand nothing and merely submit your convictions implicitly to the Church?Enemy’s job is to steal, kill and destroy the truth.

Abraham Lincoln – the best way to destroy your enemy is to make him your friend. – Satan therefore comes as an angel of truth.

Noah’s great grandson, Nimrod (mighty hunter) – built the tower of Babel, city of Ninevah, etc.

Ninmod married Semeramus. When died he was made the son god, Baal.

Semeramus was impregnated by a ray from Nimrod, and gave birth to Tammuz, who became ruler in place of Nimrod; One day out hunting and he was killed by wild boar.

Every year after he died, for forty days before the spring equinox they fasted (he was 40 years old) – where we get Lent.

When Semeramus dies she becomes Ishtar or Easter (the bare breasted fertility goddess) – she is the god of the sunrise or the east.

First Sunday of the spring equinox – East Stars sun day, sunrise service, impregnate virgins on the altar, then 1 year later they would sacrifice the 3 month old babies on the altar and dip eggs into their blood, the eggs were a symbol of fertility, they believed the earth was born out of a giant egg

When Semeramus dies he threw her back down and landed in the Euphrates river and turned a bird into an egg laying rabbit – 3000 year old Babylonian legend where we get the Easter.

Eggs, Easter bunny, dying of Easter eggs, Lent – practiced a 1000 years before Jesus was even born – Easter ham eaten in commemoration of the wild board that killed Tammuz.

Other names for Ishtar (Semeramus) and Tammuz:Phoenicia – call Asteroff and BaalEgypt – Isis and OsirisGreece – Aphrodite and AdoniRome – Venus and Cupid (Cupid was baby Tammuz)Far East – Tammuz was called Zoro Aster (literally “the seed of Easter”)
