From Pagan Holidays to Set-Apart Times

Most of us were handed Christmas, Easter, and New Year’s parties—but not the Feasts of YAHUAH. This teaching traces the swap, exposes the mixture, and calls the remnant back to set-apart times.

How Did We Get Here?

Today, most of the world celebrates:

  • Christmas on Dec 25
  • Easter with rabbits and eggs
  • New Year with drunken countdowns

But you won’t find those commanded in Scripture.

You will find:

  • Passover
  • Unleavened Bread
  • Firstfruits
  • Shavu’oth
  • Trumpets
  • Atonement
  • Tabernacles

“These are the feasts of YAHUAH…” — Vayiqra (Leviticus) 23

The Pagan Roots Nobody Wanted to Talk About

History shows:

  • Saturnalia and sol invictus around Dec 25
  • Fertility symbols (eggs, rabbits) fused into “Easter”
  • Roman church power blending pagan festivals with “Christian” branding

Result:

  • Pagan rhythms with “Jesus” labels
  • YAHUAH’s appointed times pushed to the side


Why the Swap Matters

  1. Calendar = Culture
Whoever controls your calendar shapes your life.
  1. Holidays Teach Theology
  • Pagan-based days disciple you into mixture
  • YAHUAH’s feasts disciple you into covenant
  1. Prophetic Timing
The Feasts are prophetic rehearsals. Pagan days are prophetic counterfeits.

Leaving Pagan Days, Embracing YAHUAH’s Times

This doesn’t mean being hateful to family. It means:

  • Studying the Feasts in Vayiqra 23
  • Slowly shifting your family’s focus
  • Explaining why you no longer celebrate certain days
  • Honoring YAHUAH’s appointments with joy, not pride


The Call to the Remnant

You can’t help being born into mixture. But you can choose not to stay in it.

From pagan holidays to set-apart times. From tradition to truth.

Follow the calendar of the King.
