Pagan Christianity
Samson:
Hello Brian,
Also, you can find the origins of the paganism in " Christianity " from the Book; The Two Babylons by Alexander Hislop(former Catholic Priest), it was written sometime in the late 1800's, I have a copy. Thankyou for the information you provided.
Regards, Samson.

I agree. We must learn and know these things. I think the scriptures quoted by David are commanding us not take interest or even respect these pagan teachings (How often have we heard that we must respect the religious beliefs of everybody? Guess that includes the Al Qaeda.) It makes it alot easier to expose pagan teachings when we realize the source of them. I'm sure that Ray has put alot of time into the study of these pagan origins.
So David, I think you should try the spirit in such matters and decide, is God really telling us to remain ignorant of the world's most common false teachings?.
By the way, I've heard some theories as to what those pointed objects and bells represent at the top of churches. Sex and fertility are a big part of ancient paganism.

No links?
I consider book reviews to be of the informational type.

Thanks Samson, I have actually read that one many years ago. It is well worth the time to read.

Hi Brian,
We are pretty strike about what links are allowed on the 'General' board. As we keep it to what is taught at BT, but links to Bible sources would be okay.
We do allow links on the 'Off Topic' board as you posted from the rules; Links are allowed if a site it just for fun or informational, ie, you tube, google translator, Esword, etc.
It's our intention to keep false teaching off and allow informational type links. Quotes are one thing, but links to a site are difficult to check all that is there, especially multiple links.
mercy, peace and love
Kat
