Persecuted Christians - Burkina Faso - Praise report and prayer request please - Hearts healed from trauma in Burkina Faso

[Brother James]

Oh thank you so much. I no longer celebrate Christmas because I know it is a pagan holiday not even the day Jesus was born but the birthday of pagan gods. I thought it was ok to say Happy E****R because I think it is the right dates but your right even though He was crucified and risen then it is a pagan name. I also tried to celebrate passover. The best encounter I had with Jesus was at Channakah the Festival of Light, I know it pleases Him when gentiles try to keep the Jewish holidays the same as He and the disciples and the early Christians did. Thanks so much brother for clearing this matter up. Knowledge is power and scriptural knowledge is the only knowledge that matters. The wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's eyes.

Don't get me wrong, I believe it is ok to tell others Happy Resurrection Day or Happy Jesus Resurrection Day. Lifting up the Name Jesus is more important than anything else. Others might say Happy whatever but we can at least try to correct them
