Happy Easter! Orthodox Christians celebrate biggest holiday

[thegreendestiny]

The fact that Orthodoxy gives more important to Easter rather than Christmas says a lot of things. Unfortunately, the Catholics would rather spend on Christmas than focus on Easter, which is the most important event in Christ's life, and the testament to eternal life.

[srdb2331]

@thegreendestiny thats not true. Roman Catholics hold Easter as the most important feast. Just because society has gone over board with the celebration of Christmas, does not mean that the church things differently. Please dont be so critical!!

You really believe that Russia will be islamic!? You are crazy man, that's never going to hapend! You better start eating pork meat because you are talking nonsense!

ORTODOX BROTHERS  SERBIA CCCC

[GostislanD]

ONLY ORTHODOX

[JudithMatta]

The Hebrew letter ' is what is translated by our "y". As in Joshua, Jerusalem, etc. Wake up - you need to learn some Hebrew - however, I suspect that your questions arise from another source within, perhaps doubt and disbelief.

[iszie1972]

please read your bible! Easter is not from Yahweh(GOD) easter is a pagan holiday from the roman empire. Yahshua(jesus) and the disciples celebrated passover.(matthew 26:17-19) he resurrected not on sunday but on the sabbath(saturday) the firsfruits feast. please read the exodus story, Yahshua(jesus) is the sacrificed Lamb and the blood they used to put on the door post so that the angel of death would passover the hebrews and kil the firstborn of egypt. that lamb was a symbol of yahshua(jesus)

[melioped]

You are correct the real name is Pascha, Pesach, or Passover but the most Christians call it Easter sadly and adopted this name. I do not know when they switched to Sunday but they should keep the Sabbath holy as Bible teaches all of us should do this but we did not keep Saturday and I do not know why. Healthy Passover to you and all, and may we be blessed with the Resurrection of the Christ ! melioped Romans 1:16

[melioped]

Who give you permission to replace the temple with the prayer if you wish to keep that law then you have to be under all the law ???

[iszie1972]

please read matthew 5:17-19, everyone is under the Law according yahshua(jesus) .the Law meaning the commandments of Yahweh(GOD) the current gentiles(christians) have been teaching that we're not under the Law, this is a satanic lie! in 325 A.D. the Roman emperor Constantine who wanted for people to stop doing God;s feasts and the sabbath(saturday--7th day) but God said that his feasts are a holy convocation throughout your generations! Yahshua(jesus) did not say to stop doing them! isaiah2:2-3

[melioped]

I have no problem of fasting and obeying the law but, I have question why my Lord and Savior, the Christ and son of G*d has letter J in His name when in Hebrew we did not have that letter?

[iszie1972]

well, yahshua is his native language (hebrew) name but it was translated by the greek/Roman to jesus christ---christ means messiah in hebrew. messianic jews call him by yahshua Hamashiach

[melioped]

Easter was spoken of in KJV Holy Bible at Acts chapter 12 v/4 and in the Greek is translated as Pascha meaning passover..it roots of Ester links back to Hebrew word Pesach meaning passover in Hebrew..I guess in conclusion that KJV translators accurately translated in to word Ester in Acts 12:4 How come you are not using the name of my King as it would be pronounced by English if you are using English KJV Holy Bible and if you wish to use Hebrew language we can use ALL words in Jewish native

[iszie1972]

"God had ordained forever were allobserved by Jesus, and the earlyapostles, and converted Gentile Christians (Acts 2:1; 12:3; 20:6; 18:21; 1Co 5:7-8; Acts 20:16; 1Co 16:8). Passover, is a memorial of the crucifixion of Christ. Passover, observed by the early true Church, occurred not on Sunday or any fixed day of the week, but a calendar day of the year. The day of the week varies from year to year. Easter is one of the pagan days Paul warned Gentile converts they must not return to observing

[iszie1972]

"In the second century, AD., Easter Day was, among Christian in Asia Minor" (that is, in the Churches at Ephesus, Galatia, etc... the so-called "Gentile" churches raised up by the Apostle Paul) "the 14th of Nisan, the seventh month of the Jewish calendar." In other words, the 14th day of the first month of the sacred calendar, and it was not then called by the name of the pagan deity "easter", but by the BIBLE name "PASSOVER".

Passover, the days of unleavened bread, Pentecost, and holy days

[iszie1972]

I use the KJV bible and the hebrew to confirm the accuracy of the translation, because the hebrews have kept the original version since Yahweh(GOD) gave to Moshe(moses). and because the gentiles have created several versions,it's possible the word of Yahweh has been deluted. that;s why i must do alot of studying with the translated torah, to make sure it hasn't been contaminated!

shalom!

[kesleysa]

Your torah is a massoretic text, made after the year 500 AD. So the most correct for those who wants to read the best version of the O.T, is the septuagint. Older and more truly about the vowels that the jews used at the temple in those days, since the torah didn't have phonetics and they put the sounds on the temple, and when they translet to the greek (septuagint , more than 100 years before Christ) they used the true phonetics used on the temple.

[melioped]

I still think KJV bible is the best English translation before other translations weathered it down what is your advice .maybe to reed in original Hebrew or Greek but they will not change the name of my King that many adopted it Bible teaches forgive the father for what they do not know and also tells in Matthew 7-14 KJV ; Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

[iszie1972]

I agree 100% with you about kjv bible, it is the closest to the hebrew translation. i still use it and also the hebrew bible with the new testament. i also agree with you with mat 7-14. you seem very knowledgable about the bible that is great! keep livinhg it! Yahweh bless you!

Христос Васкрсе

[xenzuva]

what do colored eggs have to do with Christ's resurrection? And why choose the name of "Easter" when that is a pagan name and when in Russia the name is called "Pasha",after the Hebrew word "Pesach" or "Passover???? This anglicization and romanization is confusion for anyone who wants to learn about Russian culture. By the way, Christ was NEVER called "Jesus" or "Yesus" by the early Christians. He was always called "Yah-shuah", also Aramaic Hebrew. Enough excuses not to use use Yahshuah

as name

[FinnishKnife]

Christianity is full of such added things designed to make it palatable to people whom they wanted to assimilate into Christianity. (Or forcefully convert, however one wishes to view it..)

[cortezawwris]

That is protestant that forces convert. Which they are trying to do to russia saying we are not Christian we animals that need converting. We orthodox don't need to force convert we pray and show are love and people come to us.

[FinnishKnife]

Yes! and this is why the Orthodox church is so nice!!!!!!! No missionaries! It's the best!

[Draza145]

protestantism is the biggest joke of Christianity ever.

[xenzuva]

No, Catholicism is the worst joke against Christianity. Protestantism, as well as all other branches of Constantinian "Cursetianity" are enemies of Christ. Challenge for anyone who wishes to prove otherwise.

[cortezawwris]

Protestantism is worst,funded by the american government. They even have had arctle in new york times( right before pascha) saying how there oppressed in russia and we only allowed one faith orthodox and horrors of orthodox. Protestants come to russia and saying that were not Christian orthodox is wrong way to worship you need change, and your culture. They even go after the native faiths and tribes in Siberia. I have no problem with Islam,buddaism and other faiths but Protestantism is bad.

[xenzuva]

And do you think that catholicism is not funded by the US gov? And don't you also see the case with Lama Buddhism that was funded by the CIA for nearly a century? then, US support for extreme islam of Saudi Arabia, also funded by the cia the same amount of time, and by the catholic church before that? It is severely close-minded and dangerous to focus on just one falsehood. Meanwhile, only "the truth shall set you free."

[xenzuva]

Catholicism is the mother of all lies. the lies of catholicism is what keeps the American protestants going- this is the mafia in real time. If their falsehoods are uncovered, protestantism will be left without steam. it's a detour to accuse protestantism and not catholicism its mother, chopping the leaves and sparing the roots.

[ArtGaul]

xenzuva is retarded. like old believers and the roc abroad weren't or aren't sects from orthodoxy.

[xenzuva]

What's worse about "Christian" missionaries that come to Russia is that they are confused themselves. They are the same forces of Constantine and Catholicism, they are not coming to return the traditions of the people to the old original Hebrew Christianity, but rather they follow behind the paganism and idolatry of the Catholic Church, having accepted the "changes" it made to Christianity. Therefore, the "missionaries" can have only political aims, wishing to guide people's hearts "Westward".

[ArtGaul]

Polish Orthodox Christians have more rights then Russian Catholics. This shows that even in so-called "secular" Russia, you have hypocrisy.

[kaldbaksbotnur]

Ohh geeesh man, let it rest and just celebrate, religious biggorty is pointless and that kind of talking solves nothing. It certainly does not unite anyone. If anything is to be solved we need to sit down and talk. In the end we all have equal rights before GOd.

[Philflash]

How many Russian Catholics? 12? What relevance does this statement have to this video. There is the same situation with the Orthodox in Rome.

[ArtGaul]

Orthodox in Rome? The Vatican is too small for minorities stupid! Aleksy went to France for mass but John Paul II wasn't allowed to Russia.

[xenzuva]

Do you mean Catholicism is full of those things? Because I never heard of the Biblical Christians doing such things. These statutes were changed by Constantine, who started the Roman Catholicism and martyred the believers. Of course Constantine's conversions were forceful- just like Muhammadism, they converted with the sword.

[JudithMatta]

This Russian broadcast filmed for Europe and U.S. use "Easter" since many westerners will not have heard "Pascha". RED-COLORED EGGS: St. Mary Magdalen used an egg to explain to Nero (by whom she was martyred later) that the Tomb has Life within. It turned RED in her hands according to tradition "The Life is in the Blood" . He infuses His Life into us by Holy Communion - exchanging His Incorruption for our poor corruption and mortality given from Adam's sin and confirmed by our own sin.
