An Easter Tragedy, How Easter Killed The Passover

Welcome to our Easter special. Well Easter is here and much of the world stands up to take notice of a national holiday which is a religious festival. Has Easter been celebrated ever since Mary and Martha found the tomb empty in 34 AD? What are the origins of Easter?

If you think this weekend is the most holy weekend on the Christian calendar then maybe you’ve trusted the Pope a little too much. Perhaps we should try to find out when Jesus came back to life and who is allowed to make a day Holy. You might not like this show very much if you have grown up with Easter but are you brave enough to find out when the resurrection really happened? Are you ready to take up your cross and follow the truth about Easter?

On this hoppin’ broadcast you are going to get a whole basket full of goodies. Jim and Angellah get to the nitty-gritty of the origins of Easter.

Can a man die, be resurrected, descend to heaven, and be immortalized in the annals of history on a day that was once used to celebrate the fertility gods of the ancients? What are the many messages of the 'cross'? Did Jesus really die on a Friday and get resurrected two and a half days later on Sunday or was He honest about being in the tomb for three days and three nights? Does the truth about Easter matter?

Tune in to find out why we celebrate Easter on a day that we're told is the anniversarry of the death and resurrection of Christendom’s exalted hero.
