It’s always good to hear people talk about Jesus — especially His resurrection. But Easter isn’t a Biblical celebration. In Acts 12:4, the word “Easter” was a mistranslation — it should read “Passover.”

The Gospel is simple: Christ died, was buried, and rose again the third day (I Cor. 15:3-4). 

God didn’t authorize Easter — He gave us a weekly memorial on the first day of every week (Acts 20:7). Traditions may feel harmless, but truth comes from God’s Word, not man’s ideas (Col. 2:22).

Glad to hear Jesus talked about? Absolutely. But even better is knowing and obeying the Truth — because that’s the Gospel (I Tim. 2:4).
