"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ" (Colossians 2:8).
"Ye therefore, beloved, . . . beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness" (II Peter 3:17).
You are either a Christian or you are not a Christian; you cannot be partly a Christian. You are either "dead" or "alive"; you are either "born" or "not born".
This is pagan worship pure and simple. Paul Winter is pagan and doesn't hide it yet he is allowed in a cathedral to do this? Just how much more are we going to compromise as Christians. You realise the pagans or new ageists don't compromise anything at all. Jesus was not all inclusive and that's one of the reasons He was crucified. He spoke out against evil and would not put up with this sort of ceremony that is pagan under christian guise. All inclusiveness is not christian.
These Solstice events have been part of our family's tradition for almost 20 years. Paul has the knack of making them not exclusive to any one belief or value system, but inclusive of all. His music is unifying and touches the spirit of all faiths. His music brings us the light in the darkest part of the year. EVERY faith delivers that message in its own way. Our experience is one of gratitude and renewal of hope. Can't argue with that. Bless him for creating such a magnificent experience.
Who is your brother? Who is your neighbor? Spirit unites, religion divides.
If the name is all you care about, and not the act of caring for one another, then what you call yourself doesn't matter ... you do not honor the Source.
What the hell is going on with this world. I don't understand how we could be so blind and dumb. So some of us say "Oh, I knew that they were evil and stuff." but we never knew. Its like we seriously don't know anything about anything. Its like we are...just idiots.
It never ceases to amaze me how people can be led astray, primarily by confidence in systems of man, such as this neo-paganism(sun,gaia worship) ever more thinly veiled in its Christian gard by each passing year.
I love Paul Winter's music, but the guys carrying the globe across the stage is just over the top. It just cries out for a parody like Spinal Tap's Stonehenge. But with Winter you just have to accept a heavy dollop of tree-hugging goofiness along with his beautiful music.
Also you used the word "knowing",which I'm sure you have no facts just a belief-just like religion.BELIEF.
Let me guess,you don't know metaphysics or quantum mechanics,but you 100% know for sure that there is no creator.The arrogance that atheists have is mind boggling.The creator is not a religion but a spiritual bond,you don't need a middle man(Religion).Nobody knows shit here,it's ok to say that.
No athiesim is actually just another form or manifestation of the teachings of mystery religions. It also appeals to intellectual persons who tend to be haughty and arrogant. No, I was not talking about athesists. There is a group of people earth-wide who have done away with all pagan tradition in their form of pure worship. I apologize if I confused you kind sir.
Who since childhood in school are scorned by fellow classmates for not celebrating birthdays, Christmas, Holloween, Ester? While everyone does it, a group of people, even children stand up and say it is not Christian, and they are dereided, ridiculded, laughed at, scorned. Even though those who refuse know that these traditions are pagan and displease their Christian God. Who? Do you know? Do you know who has refused to sit at the table of demons? Think...

Your both right-but don't think they aren't.
Every religion is pagan now.
How about thinking the spirit of god metaphysically transforms into bread,wine into Blood?Pagan cannibal ritual?
Christmas Trees,Solstice worship,Pagan Cross,Sun worship...etc.
Here is the kicker-Read the definition of a Cult,then laugh your ass off.

There is one group of people who have done away with all pagan traditions. All. And they are scorned and scoffed at for knowing the truth.
