Hello to you all. I previously posted this topic back in 2011, and have now revised it.
This week, we are celebrating "Passover Week". It represents the Life, Death and Resurrection of our Messiah/ YHVH's Son, Y'shua. Pesach, or Passover, began at Sundown on Mon, April 14th, 2014.
In the Year of our L-rd, Y'shua's Crucifixion, 31 A.D, He was actually crucified on a Wednesday, was buried at Sundown, that day, and rose after the Weekly Sabbath was over. This means that the L-rd would have risen three days later. So, He would have risen on that Saturday, at Sundown; not Sunday at Sunrise.
Watch the second video below, "Three Days and Three Nights", from BeyondToday.tv, for more astounding evidence.
So, this year, Resurrection Day fell on Thurs, April 17th; not on Easter Sunday, at all.
(Today, in our time, Passover and Resurrection Day fall on different days each year, because the calendar G-d entrusted to the Jews is different from the Gregorian Calendar that we use in the United States, and other parts of the world).
G-d entrusted His Calendar to the Jews, but, it is His Calendar, and not just for the Jews. He chose the Jewish people to be lights to the nations, so that all the peoples of the Earth would praise and worship the Almighty G-d and Creator of the Universe.
Romans 3:23 tells us that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of G-d. G-d's glory is found in His Word. And the Word is G-d. Throughout the years, the Word of G-d has been misinterpreted, misrepresented and misused so many times that I can't even count.
Please see the chart below for more information on how both Jews and Christians have changed G-d's Word, over time.

Many Christians are preparing to celebrate the pagan Holiday called "Easter". We have been told that pagans infiltrated the L-rd's Resurrection Day, when it was really the "Early Church Fathers", who brought in the Apostasy, after the Apostles had left the scene. I've included some YouTube videos for your viewing.
Here's a very good video that explains The Biblical Calendar/G-d's Calendar,
some of the changes that were made to it, what calendars most of the world is
using today, and how we can get in-sync with G-d's Calendar, in our daily lives.
Also, here's a copy of a Messianic Jewish Calendar. It's converts Gregorian Calendar days to the Biblical Calendar Days, and even tells you exactly when G-d's Feasts Days are to be kept.

I hope you have been touched by this post, and, as you ponder on what you've read and seen, YHVH Elohim will continue to lead you into the Truth.
It is also my hope that you too, (if you are not yet), will begin to celebrate Passover and G-d's Feast Days, as He desires. It will surely bless you.
Shalom.
YHVH bless you in your education endeavors. Thanks always for visiting. Your comments or questions are welcome. You may post them below.
